that assumes the rookie actually exists I doubt it, he's spinning yarns IMO :)

I love to believe in rags to riches stories, that this guy can take a kid who knows nothing about trading and within a couple of months have him doubling 10k accounts each day. that would be awesome if true... but no one in their right mind can take it seriously if he really wanted to...

I do believe that independent traders can make lots of money but those guys trip my bs-detector I dont believe anyone is doing 6x the daily atr each day, or on any kind of regular basis... maybe a very skilled trader might pull it off as a fluke occurence-- I could believe that. nor do...

Jack Hershey is up 30k so far today, or so he claims, so looks like he is ahead of Xspurt sorry but I cant believe any of this stuff LOL those two challenging each other reminds me of the South Park episode when Cartman was pretending to be a psychic and was having arguments and...

Why bother with the auditing.... why not use the 3rd party that corn used.... I remember he posted a record here last year for Surf link it to the account traded... cant fake that at least I dont think anyone could fake it--- the trades go from the traded acct into the 3rd party...

probably another troll thread..... :p

I'd love to believe Xspurt but the talk of turning a 10k account into a million within 1 year being a cinch, and that it's being done by a newbie trader....... that's up there with Jack Hershey's 6x the daily atr each day you're being catfished, guys happens all the time on ET

I think the Combine is better than an audit in case of an audit.... either party could back out in the end and refuse to send statements to the auditor or say they sent them but they were lost in the mail etc... only a Combine would prove beyond a shadow of a doubt who is the winner

I think the Combine is the perfect venue for any challenges... the infrastructure and 3rd party oversight is in place so no one can fake anything or wiggle out of anything at the last minute just look at the Hershey public record thread... it's already a joke you can't do things like...

It is true that those numbers wont help you become profitable But they will help you form realistic goals how many traders stay mired in the muck because their goals are set way too high who knows how many struggling traders are out there pounding the desk in frustration and anger that...

LOL good one :D

ok, so I was sort of right.... but edges all over the screen? well if you say so...:p I dont know what to believe in regards to that seems overly optimistic I think edges are very small and are primarily intuitive in nature but who knows.... I could be wrong.... unfortunately...

Oh, I thought I remembered you saying that you hadn't tried to actually code it into a runnable algo. so I dont know what to think now still think there has to be something more to it than just the charts..... this daytrading stuff is too much for me, as enticing as you may make it...

Here is an example of what I mean. This was posted by a guy on a blog comment..... have no idea if he is really profitable or not, or if so how much he is making, but I think he is probably right quote below:

discretionery trading can't be coded Nodoji will discover this should she ever actually try and make her trading into an algo the algo wont work, or if it does it will underform the human trader I believe that the key to daytrading is intuition, a sixth sense, or whatever you want to...

Who has a near 80% win rate with a profit factor of 7 as an intraday scalper? Come on.... that guy has to be a con artist. Big Mike is a vendor? What is he selling (beside elite memberships)? There was a thread over there asking if Mike was verifiably profitable. It was pretty funny...

Better watch out for Jennifer Capriati when you're there.... http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/tennis-busted-racquet/jennifer-capriati-charged-stalking-battery-195225870--ten.html "Jennifer Capriati, now 36, has had a tough road since her days as a teen tennis prodigy..... she's had...

LOL that's her --- she's worse than a used car salesman..... at least they sell you something that works Don't know how any one can defend her, unless they are vendors themselves. But she's not alone..... Check out this thread...

Sounds like fun! Let us know if you get any successful at-home retail daytraders in the group...

:D Don't know what possessed me to dig around, something just didn't seem right about the original post. I've learned to be skeptical of everything I read on forums....
