The metrics you use to artificially elevate yourself are a reflection of your utter lack of self confidence. I assure you, when you revisit those posts of yours at a later time in your life you will cringe and regret.
Attention: Ken - you fading this rally too?

Perhaps that @mason macgregorson is just telling the truth? It's nice that you morally support a shill and ex snake oil salesman, but don't complain about those who call Ken out on this ludicrous trading claims. The guy is a total creep re women and he has never managed to even once provide any proof or support that he is selling anything other than hot air.
Well, I don't fall for snake oil salesmen or whatever their polar opposite would be... I do my own thing. But kudos to ya'll if (crusading ?) is how you choose to spend your time and derive gratification from it.
I say buyer beware. If they're too stupid... well, there's a sucker born every minute I guess. I have no opinion on Ken's website because I've never been there, aside from maybe listening to his exploits on the sax once or twice. I don't trade those ultras. I think there's better vehicles to play, but that's just me.
We can't all be into the glamorous life of day trading seminars/videos, scalping leveraged etfs, and artificial women
.Pulling the litigation card is really weak. I'm not sure about others, but I haven't claimed you're doing anything illegal or made personal accusations. I've noticed you show a lot more winning trades than losing ones, and don't report your full, audited performance. But so do 98% of other vendors. It's not like you're claiming to make 300% annually without documentation, or doing managed trading and not returning clients' money. From what I can tell, no one here has any reason to sue you or report you to an agency. Nor should you be threatening others. I know there's another Ken Calhoun out there who got in trouble back in the day, but we know he's a different person.
I take a slightly different approach. If I was a bloody beginner I would definitely appreciate critical voices who warn me about individuals whose only intent is to separate me from my money without me deriving any true benefit. That is the gratification I derive, which is to warn beginners that not all is as it seems. Showing only a few trades after the fact but hiding the others and then advertising oneself as a coach and teacher is dishonest in my book, and I won't debate all over why I think that is the case. My hope is that beginners are extra careful whom they choose to trust and pay for advice.
And those are just some of the posts of him which speak of women in very derogatory ways. Paying some girls to wear bikinis and hold a sign with his name on it in front of video cameras is as cringe as it can possibly get. This is supposedly a trading coach that I should trust to give sane advice or tips on financial markets? I don't think so.
1)yes, perhaps not as much quantity but in terms of quality I want to claim I have
2)yes, the difference here is that he has made claims, I did not. If he just normally contributed that would be fine, but even as non paying sponsor he still at times shills his business in indirect ways and puts up suggestions and claims that he can't substantiate.
3) no, he has not. He posts trades after the fact, mostly profitable trades. He does not show all his trades nor does he post any trades in real-time. Yet he very strongly insists that he is profitable and that he knows what he is doing. Something that is already highly questionable judging from his clowning around with ultras. For someone who makes a lot of claims he is showing very little.
