wading through post after post by someone who has never traded any real money is discouraging. at first, for awhile, it was almost comical, but then it just got really tired. if someone came on and said: i don't know how to do this please help me, then that is one thing; but to have some ignorant "wannabe" giving advice and preaching tactics is ridiculous. page after page of babble! even after you ignore them, they post so much you end up scrolling through their names and blank spaces, not to mention people responding to their "insights" (b.s.). im not a sour or mean person, but preparation-trading-critique/review, my business and my family take-up alot of time and its kinda weird when someone is so ignorant that they don't even know what they don't know, and never will know, because they are so intent on listening to themselves. and others encourage them with inane banter. i come here because trading is my passion, i enjoy it, and i feel a connection with with other traders!
i am not holding myself up as the ultimate expert, i'm not! i feel fortunate to have been recommended to this site and id like to see it get even better. maybe there should be a kind of self-policing where some people should be asked to look elsewhere, or give the posting a break for awhile. that's probably not practical, but does anyone else feel that way too? afterall, the name of the site is elitetrader, not stupid-bigmouth-papertrader-wannabe! enough already!
