90% of traders are believed to lose their money. Your response seems like a poster child statement for "Gee, how did I lose all my trading account so quickly?" And before you complain, you should realize that this type of response will be the response from almost everyone on this board who...

"erik's posts have been known to bring specific commentary based on the day and his thoughts and as such generate good discussion. " The same argument could be made for putting it in journals. if he is any "good" people will find him. But it is not appropriate under Trading.

Focusing on the actual technology, I am thinking: --- I will believe it when I see it --- my minor (did an MS-CS major) was artificial intelligence. The problem they are trying to tackle is immense. GIGO applies - the web is full of garbage, trying to make sense of it is incredibly...

sounds like the S&P futures. Last I knew, eminis were traded electronically, but for large orders (I think, 25+ eminis), it is shunted to the trading floor... And I believe that in Chicago, they moves all pit-traded major currencies (Yen, Euro, etc.) into one pit.

this is very unrepresentative. He made it clear that HE was nothing special in 2008 either Very poor thread

Agreed. Gee, trading is easy - you just need a positive mental outlook. Works for me... I have traded for 6 weeks and made money yesterday. See? I am among the 5% of winners now!!!

But you don't mind trying to build traffic for a commercial business. The other person who was getting spammed by Hamzei into his email is not the only one. he is nothing special.

HO is a zero (0) lot trader. Your 1-3 lots leave him gasping in the wind. He is seeking attention, and he got it. Except he is getting a negative rep, not a positive one...

in other words, it is better to a borrower than a lender be...

Quote from Uncle_Ho: We have a name for guys like traderzones and fromthesafe down at the CBOT. Oh, you are a member of the Certifiable Brainless Ogre Troglodytes? We have a name for paper traders like HoHo down on the earth. It is called wannabes. People who have to impress others...

How does it help "a fellow trader" when the trader is a business seeking subs, and you are here cheering on adding us to his subs??? That is called indirect spam

did not say 1% are winners. Said less than 1% are big winners - meaning longterm, can easily live off your winnings If you are 1 year then you are not there yet, and we only have your claim. Post your big winning account statements, otherwise you are irrelevant.

missing one. Mr 50 Aliases (aka Trader28/cold/Jasonn/c-kid/and a bunch of others) His main purpose seems to be: sink Jack Hershey (a notable goal, perhaps) and start threads pretending to be a highly successful trader, or a complete newbie, etc. etc. and then say bizarre things that let you...

Umm, help a business gain subscribers? Why doesn't he try something called "advertising" instead of reverse spamming?

How stupid is this? Portugal disarms 19 pirates with explosives, but frees them because it was not PORTUGUESE ship/citizens they plotted against. So now portugal plans to "update its laws" What happened to turning the pirates over to someone else(STORY BELOW) So the 19 pirates are free...

I have an American car - a newer Civic. It was built in the USA. A lot of the "Big 3" amercian cars are built in mexico or Canada. I am done with GM, Chrysler, ford. Every single one died between 90 and 130K with power train failures. Toyota and Honda from now on. Initial quality means...

with photoshop these days, posted blotters and account statements are easily forged to prove something, go to one of the numerous auditing sites - timertrac, futuretruth, timerdigest, collective2, striker/attain capital (brokers), Robbins world cup - and get your trades audited for at least 4...

10-20% are big winners is probably overstated 10-fold. Try 1% or less... most of those who are NOT losers are breaking even or making small amounts. And few make BIG money for years. Most of the ones who do well for awhile will learn about the most important statistic in trading "Risk of...

and yet navigate will prostrate before an anonymous, unproven claimant of big lot profits, who is obviously a paper trader. It is sad to watch.
