    Dunning kruger traders

    Exactly my point AND the point CLEARLY being made in this clip by Dunning.... "first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye"........ The thing you fail to grasp is that your nothing but the pot calling the kettle...

    Dunning kruger traders

    LOL, maybe you should carefully listen again to the point being CLEARLY made at 2.55min mark........ Especially the clarifying point at 3.20min mark. Failing to understand the simple FACT that WE ALL have (self) limitations means YOU are suffering the Dunning-Kruger effect in your regard of...

    Futures slippage

    Damn!!!! .75 slippage on the ES.... Who is your broker??? That sucks balls hard and your getting rapped! I've never had slippage on ES. Mind you I don't trade within 5 mins either side of news either. There is PLENTY of liquidity on ES, you should not be getting slippage. Fair enough on some...

    Best Platform for Amp Trading?

    I use Sierra Charts for order execution and most charting. Sierra charts allows you to run as many instances as you wish on the same computer. I have 1 setup with CQG broker data (CQG FIX Trading) for the actual executions, a 2nd instance running on IQFeed that does most of the charting and...

    CFTC Shuts down School of Trade

    Don't feel to bad. We have all been there at one time or another in all sorts of different ways. Unfortunately the trading industry is full of companies like this who profit on selling a dream. I started to look at it as the cost of learning to trade. I've spent A LOT sifting through different...

    Gaming Chairs

    My old office chair was similar to this one. Had heaps of width and really high back that was high enough to rest head on the same flat plain as my back. (I'm not sure if this is the exact but check measurements if its something that might suit you.) Only issue I had was the padding was slightly...

    Don't hold your breath. YouTube won't care one way or the other just as long as they still get to collect revenue from the channels ads.

    The consequences of giving away the holy grail

    If you have been in "many" businesses and found out this, it should be a MASSIVE wake up call that you never had anything to begin with, NO business, NO business niche, NO competitive business model, NO business plan or anything else that ensures a business is robust enough to withstand healthy...

    The consequences of giving away the holy grail

    And for anyone that's awake reading this thread, your above statement should be all the proof they require as to what you are REALLY doing. Either you HAVE a formula that WORKS (Rule based trading) and you don't need to manually massage the entries on the fly. Or you just another...

    Are you describing yourself here? After reading a couple of your threads where YOU are the predominant poster with the most replies over the life of your OWN thread, often with vague references and expressions of your "expertise" but no actual substance. Are you describing yourself here...

    Dunning kruger traders

    You have TOTALLY missed the meaning of the "Dunning Kruger" effect. Which should lead a normal, rationally functioning person to the realization that they might be suffering from it themselves but sadly that wont be the case for those that genuinely suffer on the low functional side because...

    Non-display fees

    Lol, seriously this is the ONLY outcome that could come of it. When there is a revolving door between the oversight bodies and the major participants it can ONLY result in those major participants ensuring to direct any regulatory changes to shore up their own positions. Thus creating a monopoly...

    The consequences of giving away the holy grail

    First off, what you have described is NOT a "holy grail". What you have described is a edge that you have claimed to have found, that is quantifiable with a formula and that can then be exploited. You yourself then go on to say that if a larger number of people came to know this formula that...
