      By Phil R. · Posted

      Hey everyone, my name is Phil and I live in Florida. I've been trading for a few years and I'm mainly breakeven most months. I trade camarilla pivots and a few other strategies and I would like to find a buddy/buddies to talk trading with and for accountability purposes. You don’t have to live in Florida to reply. I’m really focused on making trading work and becoming a professional, so let me know! It can be hard to find actual serious traders out in the real world lol and I just want to find good people who love to trade. If you're interested, my email is: [email protected] Send me an email and I should reply relatively fast. (I don’t receive any notifications for replies on this thread so my responses will be very delayed but feel free to do so is you’d like.) Thank you!

      Introduce Yourself!

      Hi I'm Ishank. I recently moved to Ohio from Toronto. I had run a furniture retail business for 6 years. After spending enormous amount of energy and time in the business, I came to realize that the retail industry is dying with everything available online and I am hardly get time to spend with family or on myself. So I got out of it sometime ago, took some time off and started exploring other carrier options. I always had an interest in trading but never knew where to start. So I got my hands on Andrew's book "How to Day Trade For A Living". That really encouraged me to give day trading a shot. So i decided to join this community  I am still very new to this so haven't even started trading on simulators yet. But I am excited to learn and start trading. Looking forward to this. Thank you!!

      Hi. I'm Brian.  I live in Arizona and have been an electrical contractor for the past 15 years.  Recently listening to many podcasts that have inspired me to consider investing, and came across Andrew's book, which I felt made the idea of day trading accessible.  I've been watching Carlos and Peter in the mornings before heading off to work, checking out the trading terminal simulator the past couple of days, and just signed up for membership with BBT.  Looking forward to learning and making money without beating up my body in the process.   And excited to have a community to learn and share this experience with.  Thanks!

      Day Trading Canadian Taxes and Business Structures

      By Volodymyr · Posted

      Hi Everyone, I know this is an old topic. However, I am trying to understand the implications of conducting daily trading as a corporation in Canada. Do I need to register an IBKR Business account, and does this require me to subscribe to DAS as a professional user? Or can I keep my IBKR individual account if my Business is solely for this purpose (it is still registered as a corporation)? Thanks.
