trading career??????????? and eduational map to success?

admin — Thu, 23 Dec 2010 07:35:30 +0000

Well im 20 years old starting community college in January. I must say i will do everything in my power to get the highest GPA possible 4.0 hopefully. At CC im going to try and get into the Phi Tetta Kappa. Then i plan on transfering to university of Pittsburgh. My reasons are simple to save money. Although i did drop out of highschool my senior year. I am going to double major in computer science/economics or finance/economics. Im not sure but one thing is everybody ive talked to in my chosen profession, trading specifically proprietary trading, would agree that a computer science degree and being able to program is a +++ on your resume. Right now im relearning Russian, since im Russian just suffered language attrition, and in college i will be learning French. At PITT i plan on joining the trading club, parkour club, finance club, and investmant banking club. I also plan on obtaining an international business certificate, which requires international study abroad in chosen language or internship (France or Russia)… Im also working part time right now and plan on doing so throughout my education unless it gets in the way of a great GPA. My goal is to get recommendations from professors and a high GMAT score and work experience when i get out then to an ivy league MBA or MSF program. To pay for school the first 2 years shouldnt be a problem since its community college 8K total a year. then i will take out loans for the university. i know trading is what i do best and its my passion so success is a byproduct of all the hard work i put into it and i expect nothing less in the back of my head, but at the same time im not afraid of failure Ari Kiev preaches in his books simply psychology for traders and i must say i learned alot. But when i finish school i plan on moving to Chicago and gettng a prop trading position and doing very well one good trade at a time.. then who knows possibly hedge funds or a top prop shop where being a millionaire isnt anything special. Does my plan sound good? i think it feels right deep down and its what i want to do, so regardless its my plan but i just wanted some critisism and suggestions? thank you

btw my part time job is 50% for stock market trades and 50% for school.. I need to run my account because prop firms LOVE people who have traded before and they absolutey LOVE people who have passion, but alot ofpeople say they do when in reality they really dont and a simple questions like whats your favorite book or what trading blogs do you read? What indicators do you use? Whats better MACD or simple MA or EMA? What were your best trades? how did you feel? when ou lose money how do you react? from all the books ive read since middle school on this subject the books would agree im like the definition of great trader.

exuse my grammar and punctuation i type super fast.

recommended books for FOREX trading!?

Are the record high stock market indices and low unemployment good indicators of the strength of our economy?

admin — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 07:41:04 +0000

Or is the record breaking trade deficits which bring us a plethora of cheap imports hiding a deeper economic problem. If you combine the cheap imports with the exploitation of millions of illegal immigrants, you end up with an American worker we can no longer afford to pay. It seems we can no longer afford the standard we have built for ourselves in America. Will Americans wake up to the warning signs before it is too late?

Besides MACD and slow stochastics, what are other indicators you find useful for trading stocks?

admin — Sun, 08 Aug 2010 19:34:10 +0000

I find that when the MACD is above the zero line, the stock tend to go up in the long term. When slow stochastics is low and about to go back up, that’s a good time to buy. I also go by the economic calendar and wait for important economic data before I buy or short.
