Back in 2012, Fritz had already called out Heikotter's scam. (https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/a-list-of-all-scam-unregulated-3rd-party-educational-vendors.212110/page-62#post-3408499) Fritz had even setup a blog page on his exposing of it, with updates from 2009 to 2018...

I'd forgotten to mention, to be fair, the elite section of futures.io is isolated and protected from public viewing and there is an elite journal section, so journals and threads can be created or posted to and viewable only within the elite membership; and they're some archive webinars in the...

I got an elite membership a long time ago. bigmike's been around since 2009 or so. In my opinion, it's mostly been a retail trader centric forum with a bias to the ninjatrader platform and (sim) trading ES or crude as mentioned. There are a few "resident" vendors on the site with their own AMA...

I looked a few of your streamed videos. Sorry, but it seems you are often using up most if not all your available margin value of your account leaving very little room for error. Also at this scale (1min chart?) and used leverage it's entirely too risky to leave positions unattended and not...

I have the old versions when they were standalone and they aren't really entry signals. After watching his periodic videos back then and trying them out, I've come to believe they're no better than any other indicators. For example the better pro-am shows signs of more volume where it bases...

It's true community colleges don't usually have pilot classes, but they do have the air mechanic programs at community college cost basis. There is also a decent job market for air mechs where there's usually demand throughout the country from what I've heard. And otherwise, some aviation...

Heed the warning. Ross Cameron, the infamous sim scammer and audience frontrunning dumper of warriortrading. Hired actor "testimonials" like "Crystal". Stuffed reviews on amazon. But not here, https://www.tradingschools.org/reviews/warrior-trading/

I think he's full of it. It's possible Carter may have been profitable at some time in the past, but it's all the same as these traducators may mention past winning periods and any current wins , often sim touted as "live", are just props while offsetting or swept over losses for net negative...

So true. Scammers like the Warrior trading guys are just typical. They do a bunch of tricks to fool their audience into believing or at the least hoping they are actually trading for real. Of course not. They're making far more money from subs and fees perhaps several hundred thousand per year...

Geez, it's been five years since I posted about YTC & Beggs on this thread. Nothing has changed except the scam keeps going to fill out the decade. The "course"s real edge (for Beggs) is actually the neat and tidy looking chart illustrations with the nice red and green arrows on a clear white...

I remember an old Ft71 webinar on bigmike's where he would mention he had a bunch of "busted" keyboards. I never really bought into the fan club. Sounded to me more like sales pushing for commissions and R-trader(market delta generic) , and now he seems to be branching out on his own from S5...

I saw your old thread too. (https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/quit-corporate-job-to-become-options-trader-full-time-need-professional-advice.292716/ ) Here's my opinion. It seems like you had a setback on trying to be an independent options traders a few years back after quitting that job...

There's also airplane maintenance tech or pilot. Some community colleges have those programs besides the usual hvac or automech.

You learned the hard way, but you have a good plan to work on your edge while managing future losses. Exactly, the first question is about losing less and keeping losses small and what losses can be afforded rather than thinking how much can I win.

Exactly. Losing that much in one day, or like the OP in a few days means overleveraging and likely averaging down into margin call, the biggest reason why new trading accounts blow up but this truth is hardly talked about or reported. It's possible the OP can get more money to trade. But...
