I don't know, the mere though of going realtime and proving the bs is not just talk seems to strike the fear of god into some folks.
Idiot - if you and Frits do not even know what a spread actually is in terms of position construction and contract sizing, if you cannot properly mark a spread in terms of P&L, if you do not know how to margin a spread correctly, and especially if you cannot chart a spread correctly - then why the fuck should you care ? This is a specialty that I teach to already experienced traders - guys banging out well into six figures (and a few seven figure honchos) for several years scalping Bunds, Crude, ES, Bonds, the Euro, for size.
You cannot put spreads into Collective2. Most backtesting programs will not accomodate spread positions. Most charting packages will not even chart a spread.
The fact of the matter is that you and the rest of the retail punters would not know what the fuck you were looking at. I do not take on clients like you and Frits. I cannot work with guys like you - I need experienced traders for clients. I have no interest in proving anything to you. This is not for you. I turn down guys like you every day. I do not run some sort of trading academy, not even close. I turn away way more guys than I ultimately accept. I don't need your money, and I certainly don't want to deal with you.
