Tradestation has one,very popular.


Its very cathartic and beats seeing a therapist or your bartender or pharmacist. ALso cheaper and healthier.

I really hate scammers and fake trade rooms, and really dislike being hard-sold magic indicators that will make us millionaires overnight.

I wish software vendors would show us some respect, and to be fair some do, but there are so many time wasters out there. I like the reviews on here because then at least I can get an honest/impartial view.

rant over :-)

I wish we can talk about Politics and Religion,but we will be here all day until hell freezes over.

I think BM forbids it as well.


I want to whine about my ex wife and what a cunning,sly PIA she was and probably tormenting another sucker now.
She married a Psychiatrist,so I hope he has got her sedated well.


I also want to bitch about my mother,the ex lawyer that she is and thinks its still in '74 and I am 8 years old
and I am her little boy,treats my younger brothers worse. No matter how much I blast her .nothing changes.

Mind you she is always right and gets her way and pulls the I am yr Mom bs.

@Bigmike can we talk politics?

I got some whining to do about the scum in DC.




ps I know Sands what you mean, I see some here. We used to weed them out at Tradestation and some just got killed!



That felt better.

I wouldn't even try...otherwise Mike might donate you a three months vacation from futures.io (formerly BMT).

But for the rest...please go ahead.

Well thats cool as long its not Ecuador. I am afraid they might not let me back into the USA when I get done with my ban.

The border patrol/customs are nasty.

Having never used it, I'd still be willing to bet that TradeStation kicks NT-ass when it comes to stability and simplicity.
Am I right?

This one hurt....Placed a sell order and a four pip stop. I get pinged and my stop was the spread's highest ask before the move...My broker, Oanda likes to do that - It's a fact. Still just part of the game. The down arrow is my sell order and my stop is the opaque dot. Thought I'd rant this one off here...

Hi @Wild one,

This is a literally ancient thread that had a completely different purpose. If you wish to create your own thread for your trade journal, that would be perfectly fine and would be welcomed. We always want to read about trading.

But this is not the purpose of this thread, which in fact has been dead for a good many years now.

Feel free to post your charts and trades in a new thread you establish, if you like. If you want to "rant and rave" about them, that is fine too.

But this thread is now closed.

Bob.

Well, after a DM discussion with @Wild one, I realized that his point was just to use the thread as it is labeled, to rant and rave, in his case about the stop being picked off, as well as about that happening with his broker Oanda.

So the thread is reopened.

Bob.
