Anybody making any real $$$???

nitro, i have to disagree with you on this one. great athletes are great because their complex motor skills are impossible to reproduce, which means your results will not be equal to a michael jorden. but, if you modelled his methods your skill set would improve and your results would begin to get closer to his because his style is successful and emulating success begets success (to some degree, and in any event better than before).

trading much much less relies on complex motor skills, and because of this is more easily reproduced or modelled. the key IMO is to get into the trading prodigy's MIND, not her body. to know how she thinks about what she is seeing, what patterns does she recognize etc.

i can click my mouse as fast as a "pizzatrader" and with equal dexterity, if i thought as a "pizzatrader" thinks. and i could then produce results nearly equal to her's.

her mind is the key, not her body!

trading parallels ball. most guys realize early on that they can or can't when they go playground ball in bronx, stuff or get stuffed. most of you probably can't even dribble a ball, and if you did, someone might be calling 911 cos you look like you're having an epileptic seizure.

you tell this to all yourfriends considering this profession. it's no bullsh*t. but if you really want it, and really think you got a chance like i did, work your ass off, if you really fucking want it, you can take it. but that's life, isn't it?
 
again, i don't think it does. (not in any real way)

"ball' is a motor skill set, trading is a mental skill set.

two different things.

minkey see, minkey do.
 
i want profound insight into the subject matter from someone of your calibre!

cmon metooxx, give us the benefit of your experience and expertise!

(at least in theory) can one emulate a great trader and reproduce his results?


++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
if i ever get a real minkey, i am going to name him "candle".
 
or more specifically...

could *i* emulate *your* trading style metooxx, and, in effect, produce similar prodigious results?

what do you think? can i do what you do?
