Exactly. A trade is composed of two transactions: an entrance and an exit. Both are important. All exercises involving random entrances are patently ridiculous.

Eckhardt is also the guy who lost his bet with Dennis Richard, so he is not infallible. Your penchant for argumentum ad authoritatum is incredible. Any so-called expert who says something you even mildly agree with and it's "Game! Set! Match!" Here's the diff between you and me: I think for...

No. He wants you to provide feedback on a course that has already been created. IOW he wants beta testers, in exchange for getting the course for free. Answering at least a few of the questions I posted might help with his recruiting.

Discretionary or mechanical? Trend following or mean reverting? Works with which trading instruments? Works in which timeframes? Minimum capital required? Performance results available?

What authorization? Do you even know what that word means? Geez, you are one of the densest mooks to ever pollute this site. Your thread, my mistake being here. Goodbye.

Authorized by who? The tooth fairy? LOL They have no authority. Why does this confuse you? Have you also drunk the MTA kool-aid? To practice medicine, you need a license from the state. To practice plumbing, you need a license from the state. To practice TA, you don't need jackshit from...

CMT is a credential gotten from the MTA. MTA is a scam pseudo-professional organization created to get money from gullible technicians who believe they're getting some kind of professional status. It has nothing to do with valid TA except by accident. A lot of TA is invalid, but that doesn't...

It is a lot bigger thann those two threads. Buy1Sell2 and nitro are notorious self-bumpers.

Posted this to another thread but forgot to add @Baron. Here goes: Baron should appoint (i.e., ask) 4 to 6 (or whatever number he finds appropriate) HoF Monitors consisting of long-time members (5+ years). I immediately volunteer to be one of them. Each Monitor will commit to review a minimum...

Dude, in that first thread, the OP hasn't posted in over a year. It's other members keeping that thread alive. Besides, aren't Journal threads allowed to be bumped by their starters? Pretty hard to keep a journal if you can't update it yourself.

Hi, Mikkel Most have given you good advice. Except volpunter of course. He's a troll. Do yourself a favor and put him on ignore. My two cents: Stick with demo accounts until you are comfortable trading. There's no rush at this stage of your life. Timeframe: start with eod (end of day) data...

Glad you asked. I've given this some thought. Here goes: Baron should appoint (i.e., ask) 4 to 6 (or whatever number he finds appropriate) HoF Monitors consisting of long-time members (5+ years). I immediately volunteer to be one of them. Each Monitor will commit to review a minimum of 25% of...

The HoF list is a mixed bag. It's mostly just one guy's opinion. Some high quality threads are being excluded largely because they aren't "popular". When did good become synonymous with popular? We're not talking about the Grammies here, we're talking about threads that ideally carry content...

It varies. Some probably regard me as a troll, I can be prickly at times. That's cool. If somebody wants to start a moderated thread where I am excluded, then more power to them. So long as I have the same option, there's no harm. But I will say surf's constant hating of everything TA has...

Money Trust and I don't see eye-to-eye politically but I've always liked his input into the trading forums. It's always been constructive. If we keep driving away guys like him while keeping obvious trolls and naysayers, well ... not good. Some people are afraid to start threads for fear of...

Where's yours, Buffett? :p

LMAO! HTF do you know Fooled by Technical Analysis is a good book, surf? You've just expressed surprise at the bizarre manner by which it is being sold, so clearly you have not read it. But you are such major hater regarding TA that all it took was the title for you to declare it a good book...

I totally agree. Forecasting is about future trends. Guess what? Trend following has nothing to do with future trends. Trend following is all about the current/extant/present trend. Follow the logic here, dude, you've made it nice and simple yourself.

Just saw part of the infomercial for this on CNBC. Hoo boy! WizeTrade, anyone? :eek:

FFS give it a rest. If you don't like the topic, just hit the back button instead of telling us what not to talk about. If you want threads like this to stop, then tell people like marketsurfer to stop trash-talking trend following and other good stuff about trading. It's the trolls who start...
