I read so many trading books over the years that I swore them off a very long time ago - there's no comparison to watching real live trading and books don't even come close - not for me anyway.
Actually, when I was in his room, I never remember him trading anything but the ES and Euro (E6)...
Well Mr perfect trader SteveNYC, I needed to correct many bad habits - and I did. Then I needed to learn a better trading methodology and I did that too thanks to Rob. There sure is hell is no way to do that here, certainly not from the likes of you.
All you seem to be able to teach people...
Truthfully, I guess thats about the truth for my situation.
Knowing when not to trade is at least as important to me as opening a position. I used to feel like I had to be in the market at all times.
Is it 100% flawless, no - only the geniuses here of ET are perfect and are in no need of any...
Not useless because I learned.
Besides, one of the things Rob *used to say* was the goal was to learn enough so that at some point, you do not need to be in his room.

Once I...
From one of his private mentoring sessions a few years ago - he told me it was over 7 figures.
So you're right, perhaps I am full of it - maybe it's over 8 figures.
Well, I made my 30 posts.....now I can go blackball Lightspeed - their fees are insane.
Anyway, I agree the scaling in was insane - I blew my own puny account out like 3 times and I don't do that no more...I will scale in once or twice on rare occasion but my stops are always in place from...
Go back and read what you said:...............
"Seriously...why would you want to learn trading from a horrible trader/blow out artist who makes all of his money from collecting 300 bucks a month from people who have no clue? It's not like the guy makes money trading."
You don't know if he made it back or not - - - anymore than you know that "He did lose a lot of his students after his huge loss".
This post and your ridiculous accusations just proved themselves completely unreliable and an out right lie.
Like the rest of the peanut gallery "know it...
Where do you get your information?
Did you spend +2 years in his LTR? Then why are you talking about something that you obviously are thoroughly ignorant of?
