>> ... I would definitely say ..stay away from day trading !!!
Depends on lot of factors. I have been trading for last 10 years. I don't trade stocks. I trade index futures sp500 and Nasdaq mini. It is short term - couple of hours to maximum couple of days. Day Trading requires good analytical skills for technical charts and lot of discipline to follow enter and exit rules.
Taxes are computed differently for futures trading. You will need this IRS form (6781 Gains and Losses From Section 1256 Contracts and Straddles) to file your taxes for trading futures.
>> ... STAY AWAY from all day trading software !!!
I agree. They are mostly snake oil. I suggest - do some reading and follow some indicators and come up with Trading Strategy. It is recommended to do paper trading before starting trading with real money.
>> ... if you cannot take losses (or are happy with normal returns) ...stay away from stocks (except for a small portfolio/ 401 etc) completely
Trading, of course, involves risks. I pick funds for my 401(k). So far it has been good. I was up last year 4.2%. Never had any losing year in 401(k).
DO you mind to share what are all the funds or shares you are owning in your 401K
There are many tools for technical charting. I use Ninja Trader since it allow to me define new indicators using c# (.net) language.
If anyone is interested, I put my daily charts here. Sorry, I can not disclose my indicators and I don't have anything to sell either.
I can share some trading books, if you are interested.

Hello Guys,
For the next few months, we can either point finger at others (EB3 to EB2 and EB2 to EB1) or we can think through and come up with some solution for everyone. I don't know if pointing finger will help, but thinking and trying MIGHT. Do you guys think we should do that instead of looking at how guys are misusing EB1 ?
Flowers, some "public gathering and march", etc...

Starting next week we will make IV chat accessible to everyone so that it helps every genuine member. We had set up rules in the system to keep out anyone who does not take IV effort seriously and wants to create mischief.
The aim of the chat is to help build an IV community. If you have any ideas to improve the chat, please PM me directly. Do not post it as I may sometimes miss the posts. Thanks

What those laywers will do without people and cases? Remember that their jobs cannot be portable as the law of land is totally different in other countries :D
So what, people in other lands can learn these laws and still do some work of
lawyers/paralegals:

a lot of companies are already getting their patent filing work done by attorneys and paralegals abroad. Wont be too long before your I-485 filing is also prepared from outside the US :)

The situation is the same. In my case and of course in most of others too, what he/she said is correct. Waiting for Eb3 to cross 2001 has become a difficult thing. If I started an EB2 app rather than hoping positively, I would have finished my wait for GC.
Ever since retrogression started the dates have not crossed 2001. 245i or not, the backlog is a fact. Sad part, when there is action items from IV, trying to talk to my state members, I have realized and been told that IV does not cater to EB3 anymore. It is disheartening how much ever I try to explain, occasional members look at IV threads like EB2-EB3 predictions and say there is no hope for EB3 and also IV has no answer to it.
I tried my part...too bad I was not able to participate in the IV advocacy day due to family emergency. anyway, let us hope IV's persistence yields us the results. My heart goes for a lot of EB3s who may automatically qualify for EB2 just due to their experience.
Best of luck to all.
You are hearing utter nonsense from your friends. They have no inclination to find out the truth or wish to take part in the action item. Such armchair strategy folks are the reason we are all suffering in EB3 I. If these folks joined this effort and worked hard to fix it, we would have made lot more progress. Despite being highly educated, some people fall prey to divisive posts and opinions on the forums without checking the facts.
People who had come to the DC advocacy day this month know what we do and that our focus is solving EB retrogression completely. We do not talk about EB2 , EB3 categories. We talk about the overall retrogression in EB visas.
The biggest damage and threat to this effort is not from anti-immigrants or other interest groups but from people of our own community who spread lies, pursue personal agenda and grudges, talk against this effort and cause damage to this community effort. They forget that this damages their own cause. Have you seen divisive posts, or anti-organization posts on the forums of anti-immigrants? Just think about it.
After leading this effort for more than 4 years I have come to a realization that we as a community are the reason of our own failure and the reason for our own successes. There is nobody else to be blamed. If we have to blame someone for this broken system, it is ourselves for not being able to get together and fix it.

the other trend I've seen lately people join here, post a question specific to their H1 or GC problem, get the answer and run as fast as possible !
I'm going to start asking such people if they have signed up for "recurring contribution" or if they have contributed at all?
they are saving attorney consulting fees :) bingo !

I was wondering if any one in the core or other members think about the next step towards getting citizenship after passing the hurdles of getting the green card. If a person is here for 10 years and then get his green card (average period), then he need to wait for another 5 years to get the citizenship. 15 years for this process in a person's life is too much.
IV Core can push or lobby for a law which can make the person a US citizen, if he is living in US for 10 years legally without any issues and paying taxes for the entire period. It is just my idea.
Further to this, the eligibility criteria can also include that we should have the full social security points (40 points) and a minimum contribution of $25,000 towards social security fund.

EAD renewal paper filed :
Mailed USPS : March-11
Received and signed by USCIS on March-12
Nebraska Service center
No reciept
Check not cashed yet
When I called last week, they wanted me to call back after 30 days, so I called today, it got escalated, the first lady was rude and bluntly said you have to 45 days for reciept and then 90 days after that for EAD so, it could take 4.5 months for renewal.
I called back and it got escalated to a different officer this time, the lady was helpful and mentioned that there are too many delays at Nebraska that are related to EAD, however she took my telephone #, address, A# checked my file and said it is not in the system yet,
she passed a message to the mail room to contact me regd the filing, she told they might get back in 30 days with information.

So are you saying that date will go back in the middle of the month?
I am saying that GC quota can get exhausted in July. It is possible that it gets exhausted early July since very few GCs would be needed in July.
I don't know if there is a law for retrogressing in the middle of a month. If there is no law, then there may be a USCIS procedure. USCIS has been informing when it sets up or breaks a procedure. It has not done it so far. There may be no legal consequence for breaking this procedure.
If there is nothing written (just good faith between lawyers and USCIS) then USCIS will do anything they feel like. They have been doing it for a long time.
Based on info posted in IV threads, it is not a rumour anymore. Else USCIS clarifiaction would have come out or will come out.

Oh your status said mentioned it as "RESPECTED". May be you are a special case for USCIS. Good for you.
I hope you realize that the only thing you gained is the disrespect of your peers. Enjoy it.
It doesn't matter if I am special to USCIS or not. I got GC by not jumping the line and by being rightly qualified in the EB2 category when most people have resorted to other means such as fraudulent L1A's, unethical porting and substitution.
You may feel disrespected if you are one of those line jumpers!

Great post, ravi98. Also, I totally agree with smuggymba.
There are some members like bitzbytz who have already filed their I-485 in 2007 and their priority date is right around the corner. They've only got a couple of months to go.
But then there are the rest of us who have a much longer wait. My brother, for instance, is looking at 5 or 6 years to get his green card. I got put through a Technology Alert List (TAL) check last time I went to apply for my visa, got stuck for close to 3 months, and will likely have to go through screening every single time I apply for a visa. Needless to say, it is a major pain.
I am sure there are more members like me who are going through similar issues or who have to wait years for a green card. If we don't lobby for changes, who is going to do it for us? It's going to be very difficult to get anything done with the mentality that 'I will participate / contribute if I see results'. ' It's highly unlikely that it is going to be successful, so what's the point?' Now, I'm not naive or stupid. I know that reducing the EB backlog is a very difficult task. However, if we don't start doing something about it, it's going to stay like this forever or get even worse. It's not going to randomly change out of the blue.
If you are happy with the status quo, that's fine. Like for example, if your green card is right around the corner like bitzbtyz, or you really don't mind whether you get a gc or not like designserve, that's fine. However, if it's important to you like it is to me, then we have to DO SOMETHING. No one is going to do it for us. We are it. By all means, don't participate / contribute to IV if it doesn't serve your purpose. However, if it does serve your purpose, or if you have family or dear friends that could benefit from EB backlog reduction, then I am requesting you to help by participating in Advocacy days and/or contributing.

Vow, what are you suggesting? Everybody should drop out? People like Einstein, Bill Gates etc are one in a multi-million chance, 99.9% dropouts don't fall into that category. There is a reason people from elite institutes are respected/sought after. Agreed, there may be some totally incompetent inspite of being from a Tier1 school, but whats the percentage of such people? 0.01 %?
No. Education is a good thing. But do not judge people by education alone. Get the drift?

1. You stopped worrying because you got your EAD at least.
2. USCIS is not asking to prove relationship with your great grandparents every time you go for H1B extension
3. You don�t need to worry about the VO at POE or consulate and not postponing your India trip for 3-4 years now.
4. Even though you are on project and pay roll is running, paying the tax...don�t lose your sleep over what memo comes next before the next H1B extension.
Our people are not worrying until it strikes them. Till then they will ask all sorts of questions and have attitude of why should I donate. You can see now and then a thread on IV - Help urgent, I-485 denied, H4- denied.
Why its urgent now for them...?
Mr. Nathan I have a great deal of respect for you and all those who have committed themselves to driving IV and all activities it is doing. But what you understood from my post is entirely wrong, and I have to explain why, because if this is the misconception you are having, not about me in particular but everyone who is not involved, then it definitely needs answers.
As I already clarified, I had stopped worrying about GC, long time ago, not after getting EAD.
I bought a house when I didn't even start my current GC process.
I went to India (Chennai) in my 7th year for H1 extension stamping (after completing 6 yrs of H1 and before I even filed 485). I didn't postpone it till I got EAD.
I left my employer who had filed for my labor in 2004 because he started acting up at the end of my project and started GC process with new employer well into my 6th year.
I do understand some people run to IV only in time of need. But all I am saying is not to paint everyone with same brush. Even if you think about people who want anything to do with IV only when there is need, lets try winning them over rather than stating the obvious and ridiculing them.
