    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    I use to be a lost soul, just like you, I would search the web, dig the web, stare at charts, stare at websites, pray to God and Moses.....help me understand this, make me a millionaire here, I want to be ultimate successful. God and Moses answered my prayers more than a decade ago while I was...

    What is your favorite Position Sizing method ?

    I rest my case, Trading is like politics and religion....it's nearly impossible to change and convert someone's perspective once they have been conditioned and brainwashed elsewhere already. Similarly, to all the Al Brooks fanatics on this site. They will defend that bogus trading teacher...

    What is your favorite Position Sizing method ?

    You're one of those classical, textbook, conservative, traders....who follows all the golden, cliche, rules of trading. Risking 1% per trade. Imagine if you risked 100% per trade, and had a reasonably high accuracy and understanding level....trade after trade. You would be so much better more...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    I'm not all over social media being a John Carter, Tim Sykes, Warrior Trading, Ken Calhoun, Jason Bond, Steven Dux, and Many Others. I'm just here on ET, being anonymous, not selling anything... sharing my golden words of wisdom for free. Not asking for money, Sales. I have no conflict of...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    'Moving Averages'....yea, sure,....if trading were as easy as following and tracing lines...there would be so many rich people all around. Instead, there are angry, depressed, moody zombies, cattle and sheep all around. What I'm saying is I know the underlying logic, rationale, and process...

    NQ running again

    You will never, truly, be successful with trading if you do not understand the why, and deeper stuff happening behind the scenes. It's not enough to simply, just, capture moves on the chart whimsically out of thin air. That's like going to school or college....just because you were told you...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    Do you know why the S&P moved up on Friday? Can you reasonably, loosely, establish why? Would you have established the general market movement before the opening bell? Would you have the conviction to buy around 10:10 and hold and sell till around 3:20? If someone understands this, and can do...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    Well, what happened? It's meaningless for a trader to have huge deviations in their record. That indicates Gambling, not skill. I'm not impressed with Paul Tudor Jones. Now, if PTJ averaged 100% returns annually for 30 years.....then that would be considered Touched by God. Genius. Struck by...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    Generating 8 or 9% per year with Technical Analysis and being so proud and warm of your accomplishment is nothing to brag about. That's rather laughable performance. Just invest in the S&P -- and do something else with your time. Some people spend so much time of their lives doing this trading...

    Risk ON vs Risk OFF: tickers to follow

    Whatever you think you have ingeniously invented, there's a 99.8% chance someone already has thought about it or done it, And/or it doesn't work as heavenly and divinely and Holey Grailey as you are imagining it to, Trading the market is a rather very complicated and dynamic entity, Not...

    New beginnings

    My advice to you, is to open social media accounts....and talk about this amazing return. Sell courses, subscriptions, ad revenue content....show off a photoshopped face of yours in a Lamborghini, holding bricks of cash, and wearing two Rolexes on each arm. You will be a millionaire in six months,

    Best Trading Book You Have Ever Read?

    Everyone on ET should write their own trading book -- that would be just laughable, and so full of sh8t :D and no results, People would make more money....by releasing explosive diarrhea onto the pages....and calling it Art, selling that unique Art,

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    I hate it when guys mention fund managers as super successful and intelligent, genius traders. They all averaged like 14% or 8% per year. Nothing profound or amazing. They got rich by recruiting a ton of money into their fund, and collecting the standard 2% management fee, and 20% net profits...

    Citadel Securities: A day in the life of a trader in NYC

    Off topic, but why are those real world ex-wall street types....such horrible traders trading their own accounts for real growth? You would think all of those wall street types would be geniuses in turning a 10K account into 50K or 100K, over and over and over again. But they all trade like...

    Do you Understand why....you made that $800 in 1 hour? Or, was it totally random, blind, luck of the draw, The key, the Holy Grail, is knowing the future and why things are generally expected to happen. And being able to do that same feat daily, more or less, to turn $800....into...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    99.4% of the people who have ever visited this ET site since its 1997 history inception have no idea. You always reply too fast and angrily. You are impatient, maybe impulsive. Traits that can make someone a lousy, unsuccessful, trader. Think more, observe more, be calm more, be neutral more --...

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    That's a complex, private, answer that only a therapist, psychologist, and my diary knows. The very best people seem to have a weird, or slightly odd, history and personality a bit.

    Prove to me that Technical Analysis Works.

    Why are you nicknamed Overnight....are you secretly a bald Vampire? There are a million reasons why someone could possibly choose a username. Assumption is the mother of all f ups. Just like blindly trading.
