All those egos would never co-exist happily in one room The whole marketing concept here is very professional: create a slick, high impact video theme of "us against the world", we're traders, we won't be dissed, we'll be seen and heard, you'll respect us, etc Promote the idea of...

of course they are selling something... why else do you think it is a "blind signup and you get the details later" offer? nice hype video about emotional fluff, unsells what it is not, leaves your excited imagination to fill in the blanks about what it is wonderful marketing ploy... now...

sure... those stats you pulled straight out of your a** are about as legit as you are a trader tell us now... how many +1pt profit ES trades have you booked, lately?

110% of any aspiring traders who ever thought for one moment you are a trader are definitely destined to lose. If you ever had one single concept of how to trade profitably, that fleeting thought died of sheer loneliness ** As for the video, really polished and slick approach to hype up...

recognition & praise: babies cry for it, and grown men will literally die for it. Worth far more than mere cash to those who sell the concept of self-worth i.e. "successful" traders who are too important and too busy to work with underlings but have all the time in the world to post on...

I don't know that I can give that out... suspected kook or otherwise, I'm not able to disclose emails to third party sources.

Once upon a time, several years ago now, I had a client pass thru my program named David who was a doctor. He called himself dd or ddoc or ddav in various email handles. Anyways, Dave passed thru without much fanfare until some time later when he reappeared, signed up for renewal and began...

I'd respectfully but strongly advise you to work much harder on finding solutions to beating the market than you do venting here and/or posting market calls with random, anonymous people. There are many solutions for you out there... but a negative mindset will push you further and further...

They do? Really? I'm always interested in examining further education myself, for comparative purposes. Please post the threads where we can learn from those who teach specific, HIGHLY detailed entry = stop management profit exit techniques? As for those currently running training courses...

I've never heard of a magazine that sends free subscriptions to random strangers. But if you say so, it therefore must be so. Why would you waste precious time on a Memorial Day weekend reading birdcage liner when you could invest that very same energy right here, amongst all the other highly...

You have just described the emotional limitations which prevent a suggested 90+% of all aspiring traders from success. What makes anyone believe a 70% hit rate in trading exists? I don't know a single trader who can average that, sustained. A lot of men and women do for a little while, except...

What happens on the 120-cent range, sideways chopping days? -50 cent rips are commonplace now. Near perfect entry timing OR repeated entry after being stop-chopped is the only way to keep draws manageable in between profit swings that erase all losses. CL is a violent beast now... even -100...

no one alive ever encouraged anyone else to give their money to the markets. only inside ET and nowhere else on the web do struggling traders argue with and refute successful traders. you eschewed Dustin's advice and comments in dismissive fashion when the truth is that for years he's enjoyed...

Oh really? So the at-home trader working from his/her wi-fi laptop and single charts is on equal ground to the prop-trader with $5 mil buying power and faster locate who is equal to the hedge fund desk trader with $50 mil buying power and faster locate still? We ain't all the same anything as...

NoDoji: So, I wanted to learn how to be the trader on the other side of my bad trades. I wanted to be the one sitting on an unrealized gain of $2000, $4000, $6000 or more, not holding a loss that size and just hoping to get back to break even. I learned to recognize trends and trend...

that ain't theory... that's CL trading the only way possible anyone who thinks they can make it there scalping 20 cents with 70% win rates will be a perennial donor until all their money runs out for the final time

example: ten trades per day in CL, -20 cent initial stop seeking +100 cents profit objectives break down like this: 5 stopped at 0 cents 3 stopped at -20 cents each (-60 cents) 2 stopped at +100 cents each (+200 cents) net result: 20% "win rate" and +$1,400 per contract on ten round...

Trading multiple futures contracts or blocks of stock shares all-in or scaled in makes no difference in overall round-turn cost. Commission structure based on per-contract or per share makes zero difference on how the entry and/or exit is executed.

My story exactly, except my graduating class was 1983. Always top of class, always finished first with tests, seldom studied, always bored with what I considered school work to be as "menial tasks". If I had any "gift" per se it was to memorize patterns. My strong suit was language (english)...

+100 A skilled trader can show anyone else what to do for successful trading... but no one can be taught how to trade. That's the slight but monumental difference. Showing someone how to read a chart, break it down into action zones versus avoidance zones, how to measure for projected...
