I went ahead and cut all of the myths and misconceptions out of your lengthy post. The snippets above pretty much contain everything needed to know. You also need to point out the fact that public message boards are places where struggling, unsuccessful traders gather to share misinformation...

I'm an old guy who trades spot from 5 or 6am est until about 11:30am, then trot odd and enjoy the hell out of my life away from screen slavery & charts' servitude. I also appreciate the fact that FX symbols habitually make $1,000 to $2,000 per contract price moves open to closed trades... and...

Every single trader who ever looked at today's ES chart could, should or would know 1342 was extremely high odds to print. ALL markets tell anyone who is willing to listen where they intend to go, far more days than not. Anyone who can measure price action with a two-second glance would know...

I wrote similar systems in TradeStation from 2003 - 2005. They will backtest equity curves that ascend straight up in orgasmic style. They will walk forward in account-eating fashion in reality. If that weren't the case, we'd all be doing the same things right now... starting from ten years...

Donna, you are one of those gifted individuals with a rare knack for the aptitude AND desire AND work ethic needed to succeed in this profession. You would have won in the end no matter how much broken glass was there to be crawled over. And your learning curve across the board was waaaaay...

That approach is the classic, textbook "pied piper" sales approach. It's us against "them"... they are leading you astray... here follow me, I'll lead you to the promised land" tactic. Not for nothing, but the second best execution of that in the history of trading was Michael Parness and his...

fwiw some long-time followers in his room attest that he never collectively made $300k total in all his years of affiliation with TTM room in public. In other words, he blew several years' worth of wad in 1/2 of one session. I believe that was posted somewhere in here, maybe earlier in this...

100% agreed... and #s 1 and 3 are both in it for the emotional gratification. #1 for the excitement and thrill, #3 for the potential satisfaction of ego = accomplishment = competition = measurement. Both are equally probable to fail in the end. Only #2 is really, truly willing to do whatever...

with all due respect... do you really believe all those posts in that specific thread depict real money?

Partial alert. The real truth is that it might take 20,000 hours over several years' time and $5,000 or $10,000 or $50,000 or $1,000,000.00+ lost to the markets thru failed trading before someone gets all the pieces of a vast puzzle aptly in place. For every scratch-taught person who can sift...
