I've got two guys who have to be 15% of the Comex volume. Looking for places to put cash, buying seats (three so far in 2010).

Preparing a private offering prospectus for several Fund of Funds as we speak.

Prospects become clients after they have had a chance to interview current clients. No testimony from me required. If my clients were not making money, then I would not keep getting new clients and new referrals from existing clients. Relative Value Spread Trading has the best risk/reward...

Wow, I have been at a party on Lake Geneva and I missed all of this. Windy and chilly but bright outside. Sweater and cap. Boat is staying on the trailer, and I am taking up half the guy's driveway - much to the pleasure of the other guests. The ladder on the swim platform is down, and the...

Important semantical difference - I have what I consider to be a very good trade exit, but in contrast to the entrance it requries some tradecraft and human judgement. This is by intentional design - I can mechanize the exit, but it really takes away alot of the profit. Listen, I shared an...

Munnyhunny, that is where you and i differ somewhat, but less than you think. I have what I believe to be a very good entry, and I share that with my clients. But where the tradecraft comes in, and where we spend most of our time, is in managing the trade and the exit points. If I could...

Yes, I do this for the money, and I yes, I like to advertise here on ET. At 50 years old, I am too young to retire. But I am also at a point in my life where I only want to trade for two or three days a week. When I trade, I trade size - I guess it's the Chicago in me. I don't even drink...

I think that the key to my success in terms of my own trading and the positive feedback/rave reviews I get from clients is that I mechanize and take out of the decision-making process a very significant and demanding component: the entry signal. A client of mine in Australia used to be a hedge...

Arrow: If you're making money swing trading the markets, I wouldn't change what you're doing even if you were a client. Three of my clients actually have not changed their core methodologies per se since hiring me, but have somehow been able to enhance their revenue streams - mostly with the...

Ok, fine. Are there any educators who have fulfilled these 'valid points'? Linda Raschke or Pete Steidlelmeyer included? Who's the gold standard on trading education for me to emulate?

TZ: Ever sell that trading system for $250K you were hawking - without 'audited' results? Weren't you on ET last year looking to start up an educational service, and looking for content contributors? I have gotten a ton of PM's about the hypocrisy and pseudonyms. How many different handles...

I am not a CTA, I am not a registered investment advisor, I am not making buy or sell recommendations, so I do not require an 'audited' profit-loss statement. For God's sake, Bernie Madoff and several hundred other crooks had 'audited' profit-loss statements. All of those ratings agencies...

Feedback from client on May 05, 2010: " Pete, Have only traded 5 times since I increased size... At any rate had a really nice day today...+7K It was a good confidence builder. I am scaling in always showing 2 lots but taking them off 1 at a time because I have no patience...this works...

Martinghoul: As usual, you're right, and I will take your point to heart.

BMM: No, that's fine, there are two ways of doing these spreads: you can do the exchange-supported implieds, or you can leg them. This is what I said earlier: "ICE also has a Gas/Oil versus Brent Crude crack spread that is exchange-supported, but unlike the U.S. we almost always leg...

"Holy grail only 6500 bucks..... no way, I will double what you want ONLY under context that you dont make money off my loss!" The fact of the matter is that with over 30 SpreadProfessor individual clients last year, that business accounted for just a tad less than 25% of my declared gross...

"snake oil is a term used to describe commercial cryptographic methods and products which are considered bogus or fraudulent" That is not me, and I can provide plenty of hard evidence from clients to the contrary. I do, in fact, provide that evidence to a serious prospect before a contract...

I take your point, and will try to be less reactionary. Unfortunately, your statement that 'vendors get a bad rap' is true because at least in trader education it is a richly deserved and well-earned reputation in what amounts to pure theft and lies. There is an educator that wrote a book...

Atticus, I have had 26 clients who are ET members. If somehow I was ripping people off or was anything less than I claim, I am positive you would have heard about it by now. My CV checks out. My professional references check out. No liens, bankruptcies, misdemeanors, felonies, divorces, or...

Anaconda: 1,847 posts and you still cannot provide any evidence of trading expertise. Snake oil is all yours, "Anaconda" Two slots filled this past week - both prospects were able check my credentials and independently confirm my value with existing clients who also happen to be ET members...
