Most definitely tops what usually passes for T/A around here. :p

Do you even trade? Do you know any traders? I don't know any traders who talk about "X% annualized return" in reference to their performance. Oh and if it were that easy to take someone's money and "teach" that person how to trade...lol.

Who said I wasn't? I grew up with chess and video games as a kid, spent more money on belletristic and philosophical books than rent at one point in my early 20's, and used to carry around the Internal Revenue Code as a law student. Just some things a person grows out of. To each his own...

It wasn't a complaint but an attempt at humor. OK, it was a poor attempt. How do I post a pic to show up? I'll post a few after I return from dinner if someone leaves instructions.

This has now morphed into a Daily Nice Girl for Nerds Like Nitro thread.

Regarding how people view trading performance, ET hasn't changed much over the years. The OP doesn't even make reference to any particular market, leveraged or unleveraged. Maybe he doesn't know the difference. He's probably just starting out with questions popping into his mind. How much one...

Cool. Looks like a pinwheel. Nothing wrong with nude pics. Frankly this site could benefit from some good T and A. (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

More fodder for the sheeple.

LOL seems there's a disconnect between us somewhere. neva mind

I read from your statement the meaning you intended. I did not focus on the word trader but on the words prediction and profit. Here is what you stated: I do not believe it is a matter of semantics for two reasons: (1) your statement implies that the predicting-betting paradigm which...

This is a flawed premise.

That's quite an accomplishment on your part to get them to do this. I don't use TN but much kudos to you for pulling it off.

So . . . your answer is that it's just your guess based on your observation that there are a lot of moves of 3 pts or more during the day such that a person with sufficient knowledge, skill and experience will extract at least one of those moves. I take from your answer that it's reasonable...

So . . . 1/4 of a day's range in the ES? Which you calculate current conditions to yield 3.25 pts . . . Let's call it 3 pts/day. How about my second question? Didn't seem to me you answered that, as your mind is preoccupied objecting to what you think others believe.

Who it was is not important as he spoke for a lot of people.

game, couple of questions: (1) What level of performance would you consider not "outlandish"? (2) How did you arrive at (1)? There was a time on this site when a prominent sponsor denied it was even possible to come out positive trading stock index futures. Subsequent to that, there was...

What's the story behind their charting program (Peak Trader Pro)? Looks like an SCT for Dummies platform but I see no references to Jack Hershey anywhere on their site. Found some items in their FAQ that could have been taken straight out of a Hershey newbie thread on ET. Quite amusing...

Call it as I see it: The starter of this thread is a douchebag.
