Ok let me qualify what I said. I always reserve the right to be wrong and I don't know everything about anything. I have no personal experience with mechanical trading systems. I'm not an engineering type, and so it just never interested me. I do have several friends who are though, some of...

Well most systems, even good ones, will remain profitable for maybe a year or so before the edge is identified by others in the market. This particular type of vendor is one that I cant stand, but I can see why he sells his product. The "system" might remain profitable for 6 to 18 months if its...

Oh dang it, I really messed up! My guru money making potential sucks and I just took a major guru creds hit here. If I had a half a dang brain about me I would have replied: "Im so glad you asked that, I've already had 142 requests this morning for just that info. I'm such a busy guy that all I...

I've had a number of requests already for that exact info. I go into surgery in about two hours or so (nothing major) and should be back home later today and hopefully well recovered by Weds or so. At that point I'll put something together showing how to keep one, or at least how I keep mine.

Btw, I get the spelling thing, but this part still has me pretty confused: <i>difference between possessives and plurals.</i>. I guess that's good news for the stupid crowd though, because if an idiot who failed 4th grade spelling can make it in this business there is hope for a <b>jenious</b>...

Your a whecked smaht guy. Thank gosh fer them spelin poleace.

From what I have seen not trading can be the hardest thing for a good number of people. I think that the reasons for that are many, but the two biggest one's seem to be the addictive nature of the "rush" some people feel while trading, and also the feeling that if your not trading your not...

3/4 because @ $85 (hit the 24th) I took off the first part. It's now fairly close to my trailing stop on the rest of it, so we will see what happens.

Sorry I did not see the questions earlier, I will get to them in a few hours.

The biggest secret that the guru's are hiding from you is simple: YOU DONT NEED THEM. I'd guess that seven out of ten time's you could eventually make money without them. You don't have to buy the latest indicator that will only be sold to 500 lucky souls for $1000, or the newest $15,000 one...

The first part was very funny, it made me smile so thank you ;) As to the other stuff though, what's the point of the board? If the only thing we ever said was "use search" every time a question was brought up, there would be no discussions on this or any other board because the majority of the...

I guess I should provide a disclaimer for the blind, deaf and people who simply lack the ability to check into things for themselves: I'm not selling anything.

Well my case is rested.

I'm not missing your point, but I can gaurantee you that from a business point of view the guru is not hurt at all by not showing his results, so if you don't buy he does not care. Like I said Vadym from Realitytrader had his audited a few years ago, and it made ZERO difference to the bottom...

Agree. There are all kinds of reasons that people teach, in some cases it can be pretty profitable, but in most cases the best teachers would do it for nothing. I think in the case of "trading systems" the very act of buying one of those done for you systems tells you how much the "trader"...

Not everyone is motivated purely by money is a fact. One of the best plastic surgeons in the world is a professor at University of California and he makes about $450,000 a year salary. He could make millions, maybe even tens of millions, in private practice. All kinds of celebs and high end...

It really doesnt matter much riskfreetrading. I can remember when Vadym Graifer posted his audited trading results, it did nothing for him. A bunch of people who never would have bought anything anyway now "respected" him for the effort, but in terms of sales it did not make one iota of...

Just like in most business, most trades won't be successful. I don't think that the rate changes from one instrument to the next very much. The thing is that most people are not successful for themselves, and they are not successful for others either. In fact studies have shown that about 2/3 of...

One of the most terrible feelings in the world is to arrive at a long sought after financial goal and find that it pretty much doesnt mean anything. You go on the next day just as you had the day before. So many people think that they want the big house, the ferrari, the million $$ trading...
