Well done you. Very sensible. No I don't drink or smoke.

Well you are doing the right thing. I think you mentioned Swedish blood? I imagine that could well bring its problems? I think depression and trouble with alcohol can be a big problem for those of Scandinavian origin. But hopefully you suffer from neither.

Yes. None of that surprises me. Were you in the military at some stage? Have you suffered some terrible trauma in your life? If you burn through shrinks then perhaps it is because they are telling you things that are too painful for you to bear. 30 seconds for self reflection sounds an excellent...

Well it is not I who would have any need to call social services is it? I don't have to meet you outside the forum. I don't even have to meet you inside the forum. Or indeed visit this sad place. In your external life are there people who would benefit perhaps from calling the social services...

Can't stop can you? It's out of control isn't it? Do you have a girlfriend or wife? Children perhaps? Does your aggression extend outside your forum life? Does your violence remain verbal?

Fascinating. Unable to stop a compulsion for verbal violence and offence. Unable to see that your actions are unnecessary and harming no one. Except perhaps yourself. Stop. Think. Is this necessary? Is it helping you in any way? Does conflict give you any pleasure or is it a mere reflexive...

I'm not fussed about you picking a fight with me at all. I am merely wondering about your bizarre psychological make up and the inadequacy beneath. I am genuinely puzzled by aggression where none is called for. It's an animal thing, a darwinian evolutionary response. Some of us control it. Some...

Very much agree with most of what you say. I won't expand here but you are right. These managers have a period in the sun when things are going well for them and then the crash and burn like JW Henry and so, so many others.

There is little point in arguing with somebody who is so determined to make enemies. A stock index is a system. And it works. I did not say that systems do not work and I am not pushing a pointless book I wrote 10 years ago. Why do you want to pick a fight? What motivates you? How is picking a...

Try telling that to Jim Simons? Agreed on unpredictabilty however if you lack of a structural advantage.Jim Simons presumably has such an advantage.

Very interesting and useful. Can you tell me a little more about your current tactics?

I hate to say it but buying systems and trai I g courses is not the way to go. Follow my earlier recommendations re Quantopian etc

For very mathematical and quant approaches take a look at Quantopian or Quantconnect. Mostly high quality stuff. The latter offers connections to your broker as well. They are high quality forums linked to high quality back test engines. The place to go for simpler rule based trading based on...

I agree that Citiboy12 has some useful things to say. And some of the other intelligent and moderate people here. But the quality as a whole on ET is very low indeed. Mostly loudmouthed and ignorant rednecks. And of course fantasists.

I did. Quite right! Perfect trade.

I very much doubt these people are "influential" in any sense other than in the narrow context of this forum?

Correct. I come here to look and wonder. I come to revel in the verbal violence and sheer bloody minded stupidity.

Can't stop the wise cracks eh?

You are wasting your time here. I have never found anything of value to me on this forum. I am sure that there will be people here of value to you who will have things to say which might interest or help you. But you can see the quality of the people who have taken against you on this thread...

As I have politely explained I do not wish to have your address. I do not wish to take proceedings against you since it is not worth my time and effort. I am merely trying to give you a friendly warning that others may not take such a relaxed attitude to your most unfortunate comments. Your...
