OK, I just went back and checked. They funded 8 guys in the month of August. That's 2 guys a week.

I disagree, I get e-mails everyday in my inbox when a guy goes live. They are backing one to two new guys a week. Your "assumption" is false. And I agree, most of those guys are probably just lucky and not good and that is the real problem here. Those lucky guys generate unlucky losses for...

Hey Lucias, what if Michael pays you to do the combine. And no matter how much money you lose, he backs you with a million dollars and he cuts you off once you lose 500k. And then as a parting gift, he pays you again for taking the time to try. Because you know, you did try after all, that's...

Oh god this is hilarious. Michael is willing to give it away for FREE and Lucias still doesn't like it. I think the future of this country is f*cked. Better start learning mandarin you guys.

No, you are off as well. That one trader who went live and lost 1k went back to the combine and went live again and say he lost 1k again. Very reasonable no? So even with your numbers, we are only producing a measly $200 in profit (2200-2000) for every 20 traders not counting the over head...

See the deal killer here is the eating of the losses. That's what throws all these numbers off. If you get long this trade, you have short put exposure on the losses. You can't really quantify this very accurately. I mean you could have a really ugly streak where tons of guys get lucky and...

Here, let's do this. Let's create a risk profile for every basket of 10 combine traders. Let's say they pay an avg of $200 each. Let's say one out of 10 actually gets lucky and goes live and loses 4k. And then goes live again and loses 4k and quits. So for the 10 combines they make 10 X...

No gmst, your numbers are way off as usual. you weren't even accounting for the damn refunds. You just assumed 500 combines time the combine cost. You can't do that. Over the half the guys are getting refunds. You also never allowed for how much it's costing them to eat the losses. Even...

Man, you and Lucias are really not good with numbers. LOL. It cost more then 5k to build a decent website. And there is no way on earth they are making 500k from this. F*ck man, if they are, I will set one up! A majority of those combines are free dude. Plus they have to eat all the damn...

I concur.

Yeah, those were last month's numbers. LOL. I pay the most attention to the weekly and monthly numbers. We confirmed a monthly A up last month and failed at this monthly A up, for now. My weekly levels were 1682 and 1703 for this week.

My monthly A up in Gold is around 1719. We failed there this morning.

Same here. If it closes above here tomorrow we'll have a confirmation. That would be very impressive.

Ugh, how can someone shill for a competing firm? Riddle me that batman.

Thank God! Good luck finding your backer.

NOOOO! Not 2% of the contract value, 2% of your account value. LOL. Lucias come on man. Work with me here. I know you are smarter then this. I am certain of it. Stop disappointing me.

Gmst, this is how 19 year old kids think. Nobody gives a shit about their online reputation. I actually have a reputation off line that is a little more important. You take the internet way too seriously. You take this site way too seriously. Have you read the shit I've posted down in P&R...

Lucias, when I say 2%, I'm talking about notional account value. You are confusing things here. You tell me you are risking 5% of your "entire" account per day. That is INSANE! I wouldn't back you with my worst enemy's money under those conditions. You can't make an apples to apples...

That's the easiest part of the combine. If you can't hit those, then you probably should not be trading. And btw, if for some reason you think THOSE are too difficult, under custom you can go in and modify all of them. Just go to the combine page, click on custom and then scroll down and...

You handled that a lot better then I would. :)
