Though I know this post is equivalent to taking your bait, suffice it to say that you should not infer such illogical and self-serving conclusions to the absence of posts. I do believe that the sum of past posts from the "usual doubters" reflect their consistent views, which do not agree with...

Hey inandlong, best of luck and good for you. I'll miss you.

Nope. That's not a big issue. That's a done deal. That's been determined. You don't have to know how much was invested to know the % return if you have the entry/exit (or current) prices, which mm has provided. That's a good point. MM's own dates, when best scenarios sequence them out, as I did...

One boring day recently, much like today, I created a chronological documentation of mr.m's 53 trades over the past two years (wins and losses) to get a better likely idea of the performance (see http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=370421#post370421 ). I think we all saw...

I'd risk the same as always.

Your system does well in up markets and not well in down markets. Preferable would be a system that does well 1. in both markets; or at least 2. a system that does well in one market and treads water in the other market. If you had traded live through the last few years, you might've been...

I didn't think my observation insensitive, neither was it intended to be; sorry if you took it that way. That is, if you truly are put off by the post and not just feigning indignancy as another one of your many ploys. But I needn't draw observations about people and human nature from a...

Sadly, 90% of beginning woodchucks chuck woodchucking.

There's nothing to be afraid of, I would think. If you've become nearsighted, it can be corrected with eyeglasses or lasik.

Yep. Either he paper trades, or he uses very teeny tiny eenie meenie itsy bitsy little positions, because if he's got a 9 to 5 job, young children, and married to an Armenian woman, I truly believe she's not going to let him keep digging into a significant portion of their life savings or their...

That's the kind of immature retort you'd expect a little child would make. A very muscular little child, but a little child all the same.

Reminds me that you had asked about my current trades, which I posted. So to follow up on that, I exited MTLG today with a 6.42% gain holding it almost 3 days, exited LEND today with a 11.3% gain holding it about 7 days. I know that you're happy for me, but the point I wanted to make ties in to...

That has to be right up there with the biggest spin yet ever you've put on a reading of a post.

Hey, for someone who says he likes to point out to others not to take life so seriously, you didn't see the post was in humor?

What does that make, now? 4 or 5 consecutive pledges to leave in a row!!! Wow!! :p

Seriously, his screening process wasn't all too bad as it produced what appeared to be good momentum selections, which I concluded could probably yield much better results than his 12.6% average return per trade over an average of 4 months, and eliminate his constant capital infusion needs and...

Most portfolio managers may be decribed as desirious of outperforming their respective benchmark index. Most traders are not happy with that kind of return.

Actually, I'm not being negatively critical, though I'm assertive and don't like spin and BS. mr.market has a screening selection that's just fine with me, as it provides more probable momentum type winners than losers, or seems to. That being the case, I think he really loses his grasp...

...By making a "wrong question" list. That may be. I was thinking that such a list would be vey, very long. Additionally, it would use up time going through such a list, questions that as you wrote, "lead nowhere", when that time and effort could be directed to aiding a newbie directly to the...

You wrote that you were looking for comments, not others' trades. Here's my current holdings: Entered Ticker Price Current %Return 18 & 19-Nov LEND 27.45 < average price of accumulated shares // Current: 29.80 8.56% 19-Nov INSP 25.00 24.85 -0.6% 20-Nov SNIC 18.12 18.03...
