A New Trader Documentary

Well I thought the two episodes were good. The HFT guy was like a Dutch Charlie Sheen, and nothing can beat the woman selling kittens to make a stake. It seemed quite clear from the program that very few make money. I would have thought that it would put people off trading rather than encourage them.
 
I liked it, if only showing the Pro's at the teaching firm have bad days just like well me and everyone else.

The broken back guy, well I'm +10 which is well £10 area LOL in the last 3 months or what ever it was, LOL and yep been there to comes to mind.

That ex con lived in a huge mansion or something weird, did he really need trading income ?

And on that course, OMG I just lost $40 and feeling emotional, I trade bigger than that.

GF watched no.1 helps her understand what I'm up against especially when they said the DAX is the hardest to trade and it's all I trade LOL

Everyone with any street sense or half a brain have a few feelings about you:
A). You are a scumbag
B). You are a shill, who tries to hype up retail trading for online brokerages
C). you are a troglodyte with 5 quazillion posts who is so full B.S. you are about to float away
D). All of the above

Nothing but a clown and hack with an unwarranted ego who tries to market a dream in rigged monopolized game to retail speculators/gamblers that lose 99% of the time now, compared to 80% of the time when there was open competitive trading pits with thousands of market makers competing against each other, instead of one centralized CPU.

FYI, "two floor traders", STFU there are no pits left, check the CME exchange trades yourself almost 100% is an online exchange. "make more on a bad day" you are such a douche even when there was competitive pits, floor traders looked bankruptcy in the eyes everyday. Outliers could make 7 figures a year, but could blow up, anytime, anywhere in a week. Most made a middle class income.

Let me guess you are going to sue me now, oh wait your B.S. scare tactics do not work on real people.

Run along now bozo, go sell your snake oil somewhere else to take advantage of the naïve and gullible.

The second episode doesn't paint a pretty picture for retail daytraders.

You've got the college drop-out living in his parents attic, posting trade pics on instagram and talking about becoming a trillionaire. The lady selling kittens to raise a 5k spreadgambling stake. The guy with a trading plan and discipline (but no edge) with 7 yrs experience and nothing to show for it. Some retirees doing some low-risk dabbling in stocks. And the vendor with the fancy sports car. Probably a pretty accurate snapshot of the retail daytrading biz. LOL

Yes, one is a vendor. Unless I missed it, I don't think the show mentioned it. I googled around on the weightlifter guy and discovered he is actually a vendor with a site EZeeTrader where he sells pricey educational materials. Sorry to disappoint anyone. :D LOL

His name is Charlie Burton.


Managing 50M though - that would be quite a lie?

I am not accusing him of lying, I have no idea what his P&L is. I just thought it interesting that he never mentioned in the show that he derived income from selling education materials. And humorous that his site is called EZEE-TRADING. :p
 
I looked around after you mentioned it and see that he has a chat room as well for those who finish his day trading course. Room fee is £75 a month. So yes, he is heavily into the education side.
 
That explains why they focused more on his diet than trading LOL you'd of thought the BBC would of googled him and found out that actually he's a scammer like most.

But if he can have all that from EZEE-TRADING then EZEER-TRADING should make me even more :)
