Guys, we already have the data on this. ET had a chat room for I believe close to a decade. This unicorn theory that it will be full of conversations about your given market or even the market at all is a fantasy. People go there to "get away" from the market. Most of you will be...

Is Keith E still trading with you guys? I use to trade with him many years ago.

I think you can find someone interested. Over what time period are those trades tested? I know 120 live trades sounds like a lot but it's really the time period that is more important. For example, you can test your strategy out on 10,000 trades with great results over a given 3 month time...

That's usually the case in risk off conditions. For you home gamers that you means you earn the roll yield for being long protection! That's important to note because you usually are paying it. That also means you do NOT want to buy XIV in backwardation. Most of you guys know this stuff...

USD/JPY also trying to hold the monthly A down. Watch this little fella for your clues...

Spoos bounced off the QTR A down and are temporarily back above the monthly A down.

Baron please put a min post limit to get into chat or this thing will go down in flames fast. I wish we could say we are dealing with grown ups here but you and I both know we are not. Act accordingly.

Yeah I agree. There is strong economic theory here as well that says removing choices is usually optimal. When faced with too many choices instead of picking one, people will not choose any. I say one room. Trust me on this. Once this correction is over and the market gets quiet again...

Thanks for the heads up King!

Here you go. Let's call it 64%.

It's on their sales documents on their site. By law they have to list the max peak to trough drawdown. It's 67% in 2008. Correction: It's 63%. My mistake.

Guys leave it alone. He is joking. The more you guys fight about it before Baron gets it up and running the more likely he is to just scrap the whole thing. I honest to God don't understand the behavior on this site. Just leave it alone.

I'm curious, what was your former alias and why did you change it?

He was not a member of ET. He was a black technical trader that spoke 500 words a minute and was based out of Columbus, OH. He ran the Jerry Favors newsletter and he appeared every Friday before the close with Ron Insana in the late 1990's. I scheduled my whole day around that guy not to...

I remember him well. I really miss that guy. It's unfortunate youtube wasn't around then to capture him.

Well, let me respond to this. It's a lot easier to hang around when you are doing it with other people's money. The fees really help. For a retail trader, it's really hard to come back from a 67% hit as you have to more then double your money selling 5 delta crap on leverage. It's just...

Correct, usually with bigger size. Up and out! As they like to say. LOL.

All charts were archived....going back years actually.

There is NO teaching in chat. It's like a bar. Do you go out to the bar and sit down next to someone and teach them how to trade? It's more of a fun place to let your hair down. If you could read some of the old chats we had in there you would fall out of your chair. For awhile it was...

OK, so like I said before, and maybe you were not around then, but we had all these features. We had a moderator in the room most of the time "Magna" and we had the ability to create private chats although I think that feature only allowed me and you to talk and not more then two. You always...
