Look, LilD, you seem like a standup guy overall. Which is why its funny that you've become such a big Jack follower and strong vocal critic. Why not be the bigger man and just move on with your life? It sounds like, if nothing else, Jack motivated you to make money as a trader, to prove him wrong so to speak. Even if its that's not true, if you are successful in your own trading, that should be enough.
The whole "looking out for noobs" charade is very tired, you know darn well no one listens to HersheyHumper28 and all his blabber, and he's been the most dedicated anti-Hershey follower in history! So deluding yourself that you are making some kind of difference is a waste of time. You're not. People will do what they will do.
Anyways, focus on what's most important to you, and thats your continued success in the markets. I will disagree with you about his method being completely "useless". Price and volume are forever interlinked. The relationship is not fleeting or inconsistent. His exact "method" may not be to my liking but the principles of price and volume (which have NOTHING to do with Hershey and everything to do with natural market movement) is what is key for me. And, knowing how to decipher that relationship has been very beneficial thus far.

Quote from lilduckling:
When I first came to ET, is when I first heard of JH. I liked Jack in the beginning. I looked up to Jack. I was hoping that I would start learning from him. But I was a new trader.... and Jack attacted me from the start. Said I would never make it.... and soon started making fun of me along with a few others (others whom mostly are no longer here.) This is before I was ever critical of Jack... I was just a noob bright eyed and bushy tailed lil trader that Jack spat upon right of the bat. Never knew exactly why. I think he didn't like my style of posting... and that my name was lilduckling.... not quite up to par I guess to Jacks standards. Anyways.... I never said anything..... just continued on my own. I didn't wipe out as Jack suggested I would..... infact I started making even higher profits. This went on for like a year or 2..... till I finally took another look at Jack. Went back and read old posts of his and what others posted about him. Did this also on other web sites besides ET. Came to find out, that Jack was no where near the pedistal I had placed him in at the beginning.... in fact he was full of shit! Since then... I never cared for his useless methods. Its why I always say.... Only a fool thinks JH method is the only method that works.
Last couple of months it has become clear.... Jack has been doing this.... well has been having this need.... to have people look up to him for answers, while he plays God in deciding who is even worthy of a response from him. Before the internet he most likely had meetings with other traders in a garage somewhere where the mode was very similar to internet forums. Internet has been the best thing that ever happened to Jack.... fits his personality perfectly.
Jack has the ability to ramble in sentences that impresses the unaware... so 1 out of 200 traders become his follower. I am the opposite of Jack in every way.
1. I MAKE money.
2. I not full of myself
3. I dont tell fairytales about my past
4. I MAKE money
5. I dont have a need to be worshipped
6. I am can admit and do admit when I lose money
7. I dont throw up smoke and mirrors to confuse the intelligent reader, and impress the new trader
8. I just a lil duck
