Bad day. Lost $225 today on two trades. The last trade was a short and was right on the direction but was forced to exit before the move begin. A disadvantage with a small account in that you can't give yourself a wider margin of error for your trade to start working. However you just have to...

I've found some of Blotto's old blotters from the beginning of the year in the P/L Thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=187235 He's legit. He's making good money.

He was responding to a person that has been gone for six months. I think that's funny. Was he actually thinking that person would magically return? Some people don't think before they act.

Nice try. Maybe when I'm 50. Knowledge is power.

It's difficult to give out knowledge that was attained from many hours of hard work for free. This would be like Thomas Edison deciding to give away his light bulb without compensation.

Okay day. Lost -$65 on two trades. Made one decent trade. Missed one big reward setup. Took one high risk setup that ended up working but got stopped out. Couldn't risk any more loss. The rules were obey so I'm satisfied. There will always be more setups. Tomorrow is another day. Last...

If you believe success it due entirely to luck, then why do you even bother trading?

Good advice. Unfortunately, these kind of advices can only come from advance traders who knows what they are talking about but are among the minority. Most of the time you have to dig through hundreds of bad and cliche advices just to get to one or two really good ones that can be added to your...

I understand the odds. I had a pm ready for you in response to your last post, but couldn't send it to you. In it, I explain more about my situation and the system. All you need to know is I understand the odds and I'm not afraid because from my pov the odds appear better than you might think.

Why are you responding to a thread that's 6 months old?

A new month. A new beginning. Starting this account at $730. Up $95 on five trades. Once again after commissions the account will be at an even $800. Of those five trades, two were significant as they were the big reward setups. The significance was that the setups work and the system was...

Wow. You're still online? Seriously do you spend all of your time on ET. I mean I just woke up is the reason why I'm here. When the day is over I usually leave and do something else. Also, No proof. No credibility. If you can't understand that, no wonder people laugh at you.

Wow. You posted this 6 hrs after your last post as a reply to my same post. Why didn't you just write this there then? Did you just realized this? Or do you just spend your time making up bs on ET. You kinda sound like a guy named cgarcia with this post.

Okay. I took a look at a few of coolweb's old posts and I agree with you that there's a lot of things that seem off with him. What's the point of posting entries anyway? Might as well just post a blotter. That gives much better credibility.

Depends on how long you're gonna sit on a position and how much leverage you'll use. I don't see that being possible if you're a daytrader.

Congrats! You got haters too huh!? Sometimes you can tell who knows what their doing and who doesn't by how much hating they do. I think it's because they interpret success as an attack on their self-esteem. Successful people just wouldn't really care so much. The fact that you got haters...

I'm sorry to hear that. I'll miss you. I don't know what you're talking about here. I've made no such claims. I don't mind you expressing your opinion, but don't make lies about me.

I'm gonna just assume since you're all trader, that you all can calculate the commission which is $5/rt. I'm lazy and it's not my fault RCG doesn't do that. Sorry.

Lost $270 on 14 trades. Today was the first day in going live with the revised strategy. There was a lot of good calls that would have netted major gains. Problem was the price moved so fast that my orders couldn't get fill. By the time I clicked the mouse, the price had already moved $50 in my...

Sorry, I thought you were the same jerk that posted back on page 3. I guess he's not you. Maybe I should start limiting my time on ET. This site can be addicting sometimes and the a$$holes here can really set you off. I learned to trade while in college too and I agree, most of the best ideas...
