    Is there anyone here who is self-taught, consistently profitable and confident of continued success?

    Maybe he developed the skill only for up legs and not down legs? If so, then maybe what he makes from us on 3 tick up legs we promptly take back from him on multiple POINT down legs? Or maybe he doesn’t short? Gets confusing. Could be sour grapes as he suggested? I wonder if he has only been...

    I think he thinks we need to see the profit per trade. Could be 6.25 or 100.00. So, which is it? How about a chart showing entries and exit by platform?

    The S&P 500 will top soon at 2925-2930

    Back in a BO mode again. Can BO in either direction but odds favor bull. However, a trader should be ready for any direction on the BO. I am looking a 5 min, 15 min, 30 min charts.

    Or long scalping...which is safer...but if shorting then ONLY scalps at this moment. Can do both. Scalps 1 to 2 points. I still see too much strenght for a reversal to take place. Not enough bars in the pb sideways move and no good test yet of high so I dont see an intraday bear reversal setup yet.

    Don’t count on any major intraday reversal yet. This latest PB is probably just a minor reversal only good for short scalping. If one desires to short.

    Risky business. ES is in bull breakout mode. You might get lucky and get a point or 2 on a pb or maybe get out at BE.

    Meet The Quant Hedge Fund Manager Who’s Killing It This Year

    You are a better driver(trader) BUT you were STILL at risk every time you drove. You weren’t sitting at your home watching tv. Or perhaps your wife was just unlucky?

    Perhaps you are forgetting compounding (#3 above). In and out, if one has the strategy to do so offers the opportunity to make much more. For instance, show the 2 hour entry and exit on the the ES on a chart. Chances are much more could have been made by multiple entries and exits as opposed to...

    Meet The Quant Hedge Fund Manager Who’s Killing It This Year

    1)ANYTIME a trader is IN the market his money is at risk. Hoping, wishing, and thinking the long haul will pull you out is myth unless you are Buffet and have billions to throw around and can afford to WAIT for the market to come back. The average trader cannot do that. When your funds are...

    If your dollar amount is sufficient for you and you are happy you should be quite PROUD of yourself for you have found a way to extract money from the markets that meets your needs.

    Maybe he has such humble profits he was not inclined to share the amounts but out of pride his ego forced him to share win rate? On the other hand, he could have had such handsome profits dollar wise that his humility forced him to keep it hush hush lest he create despair, envy, and perhaps...
