What's the difference in my results? Would it not be simpler to use Robinhood because there would be fewer restrictions and penalties? Or am I missing something?

How the hell do successful traders actually make money?
I've been trading for nearly 3 years, and quite honestly I stink. I've used every resource I've been able to find, every strategy I can find I've researched, I've tried to learn everything I can. I know that money makers corrupt the market and make it really challenging, but I know that there are some successful traders out there. What do they do? Buy long term hold dividend stocks? Short 'pump and dumps'? Day trade? Swing trade? I've watched the market every day for over 2.5 years, and it's all still so confusing. Anyone have any wisdom?

GLD: Are the ETFs any good?
A question often asked is if ETFs are any good? Do they do reflect the correct prices? There are enough haters of ETFs and ETNs. So I compared GLD and SLV with underlying futures to see the tracking error.
GLD has done a fairly good job of tracking Gold futures especially in the short time periods. Bear in mind that even using futures as instruments it's not possible to track gold prices exactly due to roll over of futures contracts.

Found very similar results for SLV and Silver futures.
Bear in mind, ETFs and ETNs should never be used for long-term investing without considering the counterparty risks that all of them carry.

Naive question: Can you make a substantial profit by knowing whether the Dow Jones will go up or down with 1% more accuracy than you would get by just assuming that both cases are always equally likely to happen?
