Chris - I know you're a fan of "obvious support" areas... Well here's one i think looks rather obvious. $100 gave way and now we're trying to rally at $97. i think this fails and trades below $96 and look out below.

maybe a $96.22 short w/ a stop @ $99-100 area. Cover at $87 or play for an even more dramatic move lower. Or wait and play for a retest of $100 and try to short at $99 with a very tight stop. If it gets back above $100, calls into question the trade...was it a false brekout, etc.

Either way, think the risk reward looks interesting on this one.

Guys, beware of these' trial schemes'. This one was for a company called 'trader2b', for stocks. Below are a couple of the platform issues, for which I was told were 'minor.'

After stringing me a long for ten days with promises of a refund if necessary, the supervisor called me today - after i emailed them - to inform me that I 'wasn't eligible' for one. Oh well, that's why it is on a VISA card and I sent the videos to them to reverse the charges. So many scammers in this business......

For what it is worth, I am funded with Apiary. They have always paid....so I can recommend them.

Interesting chart, and an indictment on just how strong the USD is right now. This is the USD?SEK pair. (Swedish Krona, and yes - its reasonably traded, its the smallest part of the US Dollar Index.) We are ready to test the 9.7 SEK level, which should open the door to the psychologically important 10 handle. Large figures attract large orders....

Silver was a great call Chris -- I don't trade in and out of silver, but I own several ounces. Personally hope Gold trades back down to $1385 so I can buy some more, but not sure that it will...

Finally got my futures account back up and running -- have you tried out the e-Micro S&P contracts? 1/10th the value of e-minis (so about $14k/contract) - and liquidity is excellent. Makes it a lot easier to correctly size trades and with many brokers the commissions are pretty low -- i've been using AMP and they charge like 40c/contract or something.

Anyhow, hope all is well.

I don't trade my own money in the futures market anymore, and the desk I work for only does the higher contracts at the moment. However, I have heard good things about the micros. Certainly they do better than micro gold, etc.....

Silver and gold are my favorites, along with the ultra bonds.

Read carefully, guys. What this dude is saying is that after 10 years (when he started this thread) of "consistently making money trading" he still doesn't have enough $ to trade on his own and needs to reach out to some weird outfits.. like Apiary. This is from Apiary's web page:

"Once we’ve taught you everything that a 2.5 trillion-dollar hedge fund manager knows and you pass our tests, we’ll put our money where our mouth is and GIVE YOU OUR MONEY to trade."

Trillion, guys, trillion

Yes, because only an idiot would rather trade their own money instead of someone else's if given the chance. The reality is that the average retail account in the US is 1000 USD, according to some of my contacts in Toronto with one of the larger retail firms in the world. The reality is that NOBODY gets rich trading their own money. Why? Because they don't have enough to start with in order to do so. I would also suggest that if they did - they wouldn't be trading it.

Simple math: $50,000. 20 percent per year. Total after ten years, 309k. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? Oh shit. Forgot about taxes. And food. And rent. And those damn kids. Suddenly, its not such a large amount. So I took the smart route and started trading other people's money. I do it in FX and futures. I also am an analyst for some of the biggest sites online. However, I am sure you 'know better.'

Trading is all about psychology. I can see yours. And that's the problem. Lots of small pee-pees trying to out measure each other. Trading isn't a competition. It's also not tough. It's a game that simply is a matter of keeping your shit together, and recognizing the numbers involved. The numbers involve dictate that being a single father with two kids in one of the most expensive districts in my states suggests that my money is better spent on something more important than trading. This is especially true when it is possible to do it without risking my own money.

You are dismissed.
