"We should tell Mel to schedule this in as I believe it would be really beneficial to see a chart live as it happens."

I think you meant..."We should ask Mel if it would be possible to..."

I'm sure she would consider it as long as you ask nicely. ;-)

travelbuff, I'm attending the Chicago Monkinar, but am already set to leave Sunday immediately after the final class (my flight departs at 7:15), and I'm not so sure I can afford to stay the extra night anyway.

However, I am one of those who, while I do know what a stock chart is, and I have read up on them a little bit (primarily in an 'Idiots' book) in order to not be completely ignorant going in, but I have never watched them in real time or even attempted in the slightest to ever read them. I've actually mostly been trying not to learn too much before Chicago because I've been told by many that I may very well get more out of it by not knowing anything ahead of time.

So, that said, what would you say some of the immediate pitfalls are after the Monkinar when starting to paper trade on one's own and/or paper trading?

Any insight would be much appreciated!
