I hear you. Actually felt this already: with OPM I indeed tried to keep the equity curve as cute as possible and didn't do things I would if traded just my own account. Resulted in less net profit In October than would be had I trade traded for myself. :)

How do you know if I'm honest? You can read others' thoughts? :)

Simple: I try not to use professional terminology when I speak with the person supposedly not possessing the intellect to understand it's meaning. Also there is cognitive dissonance and there is plain vanilla trolling. :D Well, it was you who exploded with "BS!" and other highly civilized...

Oh I see, you're not only a great educator, but also a gifted psychic who knows exactly who is honest or not with himself. ET is a really nice place, full of talents. :D P. S. What exactly of my claims do you mean?

So you have no idea how to profitably trade for already 3 years and still going to "educate" someone about the trading "reality"?

Opt789, What do you mean this is not the case for the majority of traders? For psychological reasons?

I think you are right. For you there was none from the start.

Before you educate us: are you a consistently profitable trader? Last time I asked (about an hour ago) you didn't answer.

To not spend your time and efforts: what you hope for is not going to happen. If you politely asked then maybe... but you missed the chance. Oops. "Buddy". :D

Let me guess? And you wanted exact instruction to immediately start making millions without any efforts? :D

Master or not is very easy to tell: are you a consistently profitable trader? :)

"I had a losing trade, this pattern is sure junk"... classic. :D

Thanks. Now where I am going with this: Let's suppose you read a book on karate. Tricks are shown in color pictures, very clear and in details. You read it. Does it make you karate master immediately as you start to practice those tricks with your sparring partner the next day after reading...

I never said you didn't interpret it correctly. I asked what makes you think you interpret them correctly? :) Looks like the answer is "looked in the books", right?

OK let it be street signs... What makes you think you interpret them correctly? What if they mean not what you think they do? :)

It is truly hilarious how people blame their own failure on "TA". Like driving drunk and blaming accident on a car. :D

You're welcome. :)

Yea, market doesn't take much attention due to Sandy so I monitor ET as actively as I usually monitor the Euro. :D

Regarding CME it's likely 50MM worth of notional, equivalent to 400 cars offered. Most of the time there's at least 100+ not further than 1 pip from the market, but experienced people say 50/60% of that is algos so they are pulled if market moves towards them, which means you better cut your...

Checked LMAX site, very interesting what order can they realistically execute without slippage of 1+ pip.
