November 2007. Coming from being a floor broker to trading off of the computers I learned an expensive lesson that the 2 are completely different in nature. I was short 100 dec/march cocoa spreads at even money. I went to take a bathroom break and it traded up to 70 premium!! By the time I got out at 65 premium I had lost everything!! (65,000$) I was gun shy for a long time after that!!

I've heard a lot of expressions about how you feel when you know the hammer is comming down on your account, but this one is the funniest one I've heard in a long time...."Enter a newbie trading live....and it's sweaty palms....jumpy mouse finger....pounding heart....and eyes darting around like someone that dropped the soap in a prison shower.".....You hit the nail on the head!!!! Thanks for the laugh Freeflyva!!!

I think marketzar.com got shut down? I can't seem to get my info sent to them because you can not fill out the contest name

True. No one can see your stops. DOM trader shows overall buy and sell volume at a certain price, but not the stops at that certain price

Has anyone every heard of the QST trading platform? If so does anyone have any comments about it.
