This might be a stupid question ... here goes ... is managing money an option? There are many formats in which this can be done, taking on some private funds, working for an institution in some way, all the way to setting up a fund. Get the legals right so you can continue to trade for yourself as well.

Any thoughts on this from anyone who knows more about it than me (ummmm...that makes everyone qualified)?
Most definitely Mr Ed! I was looking for quick and easy options but you are correct - the real money is in OPM (Other Peoples' Money). There are a few different avenues to take on the daytrading side. The main two that come to mind right now (in futures) would be a CTA or Hedge Fund setup. Of course, there's more to it than just setting up a website and such, but it is a great way to go for the LONG TERM and if you want to go that route.

The nice thing about C2 and/or MarketZar is that it's quick and easy.

Doesn't sound like a bad idea. The only thing is if they already have the simulation, it isn't that much more into creating special accounts for contestants. Yes, by using their platform for platform, people will get hooked the more chance they get to use it. I like BF's idea, it's about time we need a contest on this site. I'm betting I can beat BF at his own game! (JK!) or at least BF holds a bar we can all try to reach.
Sounds like a threat there Tor...

This will be right up Ronin's ally as well! If he participates Tor, we can only hope for 2nd place.

I see what you did there...

How about this...

You will feel like after you say to 1st place.

No doubt will set in and you'll spend hours wondering how I did it.

And in the end, all you'll get is: & &

You'll simply be left...



Ok, that's gotta be some kind of smilie record or something...

James - any luck with MarketZar discounts?

If not, there are free sessions as well.

Just thought of this per our discussion over here.
