<i>"I have no time to take on any new clients so please don't email asking for consultation"</i> Oh fiddlefaddle... I was sure counting on you helping me cope with my losses & failures. Of course I cannot afford to pay you up front all at once, cash on the barrelhead. You wouldn't expect that...

<i>"And you are a storyteller who dreams about success when you obviously have none. No successful trader would spend the hours you have posting in this forum just to kill time out of boredom; that's a red herring if there ever was one....unless, of course, you don't have a life. I have a vision...

<i>"but you instead you tease the forum with your braggadocio and daily trading tales of pivot point home runs."</i> I don't consider +4pt ES trades "home runs". They are run of the mill trades. As for detailing what I do, what makes you think it's easy to just transfer & digest as a...

<i>"You know nothing about me personally. Copy and paste the link(s) that claim otherwise."</i> Sure thing... here's the thread you trolled. Have you forgotten already? Heck, you just got here, man! <b>http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=87754&perpage=6&pagenumber=14</b>

<i>"Care to answer and help the trading community?"</i> How would that help anyone? <i>"That's more like it. I knew you were a man of reason."</i> But of course I am. As a trader, you're hopeless. End of story :cool:

<i>"Your lifetime ambition has finally arrived. You are no longer beholden to the daily grind of the average person who has to answer to a boss. You feel your ship has finally arrived."</i> Why tease everyone with such fallacies? All of what you wrote here is literally impossible for you...

<i>"I'm afraid I have to disagree. The "house" is not the market and traders are not betting against it; they are betting against each other each and every time someone buys and sells. The market has no built in edge like a casino or racetrack and it is not inefficient. It is random. The market...

<i>"Im usually pretty busy teaching or helping out a user in our room that I may miss good setups. This will get worse the more customers we have."</i> 100 clients in you room paying $300 monthly is, of course, $30k monthly gross revenue. Sounds great to most... it is a lot of money. Then...

<i>"If you are a trader than trade.............if not stop pretending"</i> But how else would we know when there's 100% up room to go? (huge laugh) Seriously, from 8:30am EST thru 4:00pm EST on Friday I took four trades in the ES. Four trades, 7.75 market hours. do the math. That leaves a...

<b>Pabst</b>, I sincerely respect your opinion. You made very valid points, for sure. If memory serves me correct, you acheived trading success thru trial & error which included more total account blowouts than successful events. That process repeated itself over many years before you made...

<i>"Most compulsive gamblers will answer yes to at least seven of these questions. ...Answering no to every question means you're kidding yourself. We've all had a problem with at least a couple of the above conditions. But it's okay if it makes you feel better that you're not gambling...

<i>"It annoys the **** out of me"</i> Why do you feel that way? * Dose of reality: unless it's a straight trend day, money can be made going long or short. When price action bobs up & down in sideways swing fashion, there is opportunity for profit long and short. No method or system...

I like 15min and 5min charts, but others work equally well

<i>"I'm not going to feed your ego by reading 980 of your posts looking for something that I have no clue what even the topic is. If you care to be helpful, you will. If not, you won't."</i> No worries, you couldn't possibly feed my ego. By the same token, I have no clue what might be helpful...

<i>"Since you know where those little nuggets are and I would have to search through 908 of your posts, can you make it easier on me by posting, say 4 or 5 links that you think helped others? Thanks for the assistance."</i> You just joined this forum for the very first time... and you...

<i>"I read an arcticle years back in an academic publication about a professor at MIT who had a supercomputer plot every chart pattern on a 5, 15 and one hour chart on the ES for 5 years and then backtested the frequency of repeating patterns and possible trades based on those patterns. I don't...

<i>"See... never trust a Kiwi bearing wooly gifts in sheeps clothing"</i> I wouldn't dare speak for my mate kiwi, but there were a couple times long ago when after a hard night of drinking gin, I'd have much preferred to see a sheep lying next to me instead of what was actually smiling back...

<i>"austinp since you have a monumental edge and obviously don't need anyone's advice to trade, why do you spend so much time posting on ET? You're not sharing anything of value to traders to make them more successful. Do you get an ego boost from boasting here?"</i> I hang out here when I'm...

<b>T28</b>... I'm curious. Have you ever let anyone else say the last word? Do you ever think to yourself, "Oh heck, I've said all there is to say. Point made. Might as well let the other guy finish this string." BTW... my wool got wet :eek:

What many seem to overlook here is the fact that on this given day, trader in example did not lose money. That in itself beats the performance of most all YM traders in the same given session. Simply making any money at all, few bucks, giant sum or anything in between out-performed most all...
