    Muffinhands excuse for how he acts, as he posted in a prior thread: "I'm new here so I gotta be fierce so I don't get bullied" Well.. this clown and bully, Muffinbrains, has the highest insult-per-reply percentage of any poster I have seen and he has started only one thread of his own...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    My comments in this thread were mostly geared to US equities The book I mentioned covers a bit of what you have been trading, however... I would listen closely to whatever Tommo says.

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    Re Prop Firms: Aside from low costs and possible learning... Even if you have a winning method: You may need or desire to slosh around hundreds of thousands of dollars to make a good living and grow a bankroll. Some slosh around millions each day. Many do not have this kind of money lying...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    Yes yes But at the end of the day, this poster should seek out personal relationships with winners, perhaps seeking out- after massive research- the right office in a prop firm. All offices in a firm are not equal. No reason to think he should simply backtest harder and try harder as there...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    What I would expect but I do not understand the last part: "...a lot of averaging to be honest" Do you mean adding to a losing position, within your risk parameters when there is an edge? I think this is what you mean but I do not want to assume. Every post you made in this thread is full...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    Excellent reply! Perhaps you will private message the poster with the name and location of a prop firm you recommend. Some firms offer poor training and horrible deals for new guys Some firms have offices where the trader will be hustled for lessons by losing office managers. But the same...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    You write truth. However, I have know people who become winners almost immidatly by falling in with the right people. This sort of thing usually depends on the inefficiencies the group is exploiting. Seeking out high-level winners who one can interact with is a worthy goal. Obviously most...

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    1. Yes... most mentors for hire are mostly posers and hustlers. 2. Most winning traders I know had mentors and allies along the way. I respect your views and I am not going to go back and forth on this The poster asking for help has been given quite a few ideas to consider

    Mentorship (4th year still not profitable)

    Down playing mentorship is hurtful if this fellow takes you to heart. People who align themselves with successful mentors; well.. it should be obvious. Most of the greats in all fields, sought out mentors and allies. What most Did Not Do was try to figure it all out on their own... but there...

    Mike Matusow is a dead broke degenerate gambler who owes millions and who served time on drug related charges. Mike is entertaining but don't take his stories, or those most poker players feed to the media, too seriously. Personally I like Mike, but as a lifestyle/success coach, really? ____...

    If you are going to stay on this path: You are smart to try and find a winning trader who will mentor you asap. And yes.. developing a personal relationship is best. Most people will never be able to do this, but doing this should be your goal. Go to bed thinking of ways to achieve this goal...
