So you made 36k/yr trading currencies.  How much did you make trading stock futures? 

0, as i don't know enough about those to trade them in any meaningful way other than "buy/sell and hope".

i only trade equities now, i made about 35% in 5 months last year. i used to post my daily trades in real time on alex23's forum, just to show i'm not full of shit.  i can post a screenshot if you're really interested, but i'm not claiming an outlandish return.

probably would've been more if i got in earlier, but as i said, funds were limited (had a kid, and expecting another, had to stash money in an emergency medical fund, but have since recouped it).

Screenshot would be cool.  35%/5 mos is better than 32%/yr I got from my 401k (some small cap mutual fund) last year.

None of the top SEC teams pay for play.  Just the wannabes.
