What's even funnier is a few of them returned to ET and continued the no losing charade. And no, I'm not going to out them. It's not my intent to hurt anyone's ego here, I'm just trying to offer a unique perspective about this business.

What happened to all the updates on WWIII? All time highs btw Nitro...

That is correct. They offer no methodology. The provide the field and the ball and you have to play the sport. They did venture into coaching which I stated on several threads was bullshit on their part. Huge mistake. Coaching in trading is absolutely worthless. But that's all touchy...

OK, had a change of heart. It took me all of 5 seconds to find this. Honestly dude, this is why I advocate going to college on this board so much. Running a search should not be difficult. Anyway...here is a quote from 7 months ago laid out in detail. And no, I don't expect an apology...

No dude, it's in the archives, use the search function. I'm not doing your research for you. Austin and I had a very lengthy debate about it and if you did a search you should pull up an entire thread where we went back and forth on this for several weeks. You can also pull up a search...

False. I'm a big fan of that business model. Hell, I even started a very lengthy thread going into detail everything they are doing wrong and how I would have done it better. It's in the archives. I'm a fan of the approach, not the firm. That is not to say I have anything against the firm...

LOL, dude, you know nothing about the industry. They could care less if you make money. The best trader a deposit type equity firm can have is a guy who takes as little risk as possible (scalper) holds no overnights, trades a lot for small gains and losses yet hovers around breakeven...

If they broke their contract hire an attorney. I'm being dead serious, go after them. If they didn't and you just are upset because you "let" them micromanage your account. Then that is on you. You need to stand firm behind your convictions in life.

I never changed my tone. I have stated this from day one. Just do any search for my name and Austin because I've questioned from day one why he would ever give up 40% of his p&l to TST if he was killing it like he claimed. I have NEVER on this board recommended a profitable trader to go with...

Come on. We've been over this 100 times. These traders are NOT going to hold themselves accountable on a free sim and you know that. Shit man, I'm the most disciplined guy in the world and back in the day when I played around on sims I always re-set the account after a large loss. Why...

Oh I'm sure they are not. But is that the fault of TST? Most traders don't have a clue how they should go about being successful in this business. They are approaching this from the standpoint of how fast can I become profitable and how many millions will I make once I become profitable...

OK, I'll tell you EXACTLY what is being measured, in my opinion of course. The data that we DO have to work with here, and there is quite a bit, are all the combines that were done publicly by fellow ET members. We can actually compile, categorize and measure some interesting bits of data...

Dude, this has all been discussed ad nausem on the prior 50 threads and 50k posts. I made the argument then and I'll say it one more time that traders, on avg, do NOT hold themselves accountable on sim trading. That is a fact. Again, I saw this first hand in my prop office for years. Guys...

Sure, you can have a lot of everything. But these guys who are failing by definition are failing. It's like blaming your professor for a bad grade in college and saying if they didn't grade so harshly you would have gotten a better grade. It's YOUR job to get a better grade, not the...

But this is EXACTLY what you are doing. Blaming someone else. It's also funny how the crowd is split in two here. One side is accusing them of backing guys that get lucky on one off trades and the other saying they are NOT letting guys get lucky by making them jump through the same hoop...

Let's start with, bullish on what? I don't know what product you are talking about. I assume euro dollars but I figure it's better to ask.

Yeah Clint I've repeated this over and over on this board and even privately to many members who have PMed me about it. TST is a great training tool. I would never take their backing deal for the simple reason that once you have worked out all your issues and are competent enough to trade on...

OK. Was just curious. Just wondering if you noticed any patterns in what you were looking at.

I take it this didn't go anywhere?
