I have another comment about this that may interest you Oddtrader
I think traders, those who actually pull the trigger on a trade that is, know that they have to rely on their own data and research if they are going to get anywhere. Newbies and trolls on the other hand are going to want to see if they can get something for nothing from another trader...
My best example is the so called "knowledge" challenge from Trader666. I was challenged even though I don't use the Hershey system to "display my knowledge." As it turns out the other person Trader666, didn't even have the skills of a junior high school kid....What they wanted was to provoke me (anybody actually) into disclosing how they trade.
Ironically, this succeeded and they are busily trying to test Jack Hershey's system. The resulting code is going to be posted...
Interestingly, those who cannot make it work and have been disrupting the site for months, will then have a workable code they can use to automate their own trading..or as the basis for their own system development....lol
From my point of view it is the best display of con artists at work, that I have seen in years.
As I have said before, this place is a wasteland and unless we get trolls of the site or learn to ignore them, nothing of value will get discussed here....
By the way, for those who don't know Schlap is Trader28' latest alias. I suggest we don't reply to his posts.
Your choice of course
