    What's the matter man? it's all fun and games when you're bullshitting someone else trying to have a legit conversation isn't it? Now that I am ready to play your game, looks like you're on the other end of that now and not having too much fun spending your time with a worthless debate? Glad...

    how far ahead of us is institutional trading?

    It is a cop out. Because if you disagree you're essentially saying most people are good traders and we know that isn't true. So you disagree that most people here are taking long positions in general? Really? You disagree most of them are using time? Really? I don't believe...

    Understand completely. I am aware of everything you said there. Yes, I get it you don't believe me. We've already established that. When I back tested I purposely gave myself the highest possible price and worst possibly entry during that time. So, now when I forward test it's actually way...

    how far ahead of us is institutional trading?

    Not "only" but vast majority yes. If you can logically explain to me how I am wrong, have no issues with that. Maybe I've been unlucky and just happened to run into the same type of scenario, so it skewed the data therefore my experience has led me to the incorrect conclusion. Let me...

    No obsession and nothing you really said disagrees with what I said. No, do not think "all" retail trading is that. He had a general question. Answered it in a general way. If you think it's only valid to answer his question from your specific type of trading and from the angle of only...

    You said you never met a D1 index trader in futures that was profitable. Then you post some guy saying "70% D1" that is in your trading room/group. It looks like he is doing options, arb and etc. So, obviously you're going to come back and say "thats the point". That's also my point...

    Ok well my entry criteria is 100% objective. My risk management while not a fixed value is also 100% objective. The only discretionary thing is I don't always take every setup due to the filter. If you're confident that information is incorrect and that I am just punting. That's excellent...

    Of course most of them aren't. Thats clear just by talking or trading with them even loosely. They are good at what they specialize in or at the very least for some of them good at making connections. Thing is poopy doesn't even think it's possible at all. I am completely shocked at the...

    how far ahead of us is institutional trading?

    Yeah, there is no comparison. Two different things. I wouldn't be surprised though if they were equally behind (if they were to swap rolls). For example take away all their advantages (resources, capital ,access to information, technical tools and being part of a larger support group) and...

    I summarized my methodology. As most other people have seen one way people fail is taking large losses and small wins. Another main reason people fail is lack of discipline. Lastly is lack of an actual edge (death by a thousand cuts, commissions and etc as you mentioned) Summarizing...

    Alright, then no one can ever use sarcasm or irony around you. That can be considered lying. Saying something so ridiculous in jest, isn't lying. Me being profitable every day on my funded account, that I'll be requesting a pay out for soon, talking about risk management is strength of my...

    So, you don't consider your time valuable or you're saying I shouldn't consider my time valuable? Or that debating back and forth online is a good use of our time? I have a different viewpoint, but I will respect yours.

    That's fair. If you look at the other comment. I posted that a lot of the responsibility for that is mine. None the less I've admitted that and I'd like to just move on and do my journal without all the pointless debating. If no one likes my journal, thinks it's bs, than I can't trade or...

    I am not upset, don't take things personal. What does trigger me is the lack of objectivity sometimes. Don't believe everyone here is 100% trolling. Which means some of these people actually believe what they are typing out, despite it being not logical or them purposely twisting things to make...

    Really not upset about that. Understand there's a low chance of finding someone. Not many people can actually trade (particularly D1 like you mention, although your claim of it being almost impossible, is what I take issues with as there's clearly successful D1 traders). If no one believes...

    So, need more time and longer results to even begin to believe me. Ok, that's fair. Then what is wrong with just letting this journal play out? Instead of responding so actively and quickly. I took like 18 hours to come back and post. You responded in like under 15 minutes.
