Did my first 100 lot today

[Kicking]

that's cool, 100 lots ! Seems like it's a ego matter though.
Or a challenge. Not motivated by rational thinking such as making more when you are right in the framework of your risk management.

Good Gawd! Talk about the et delusions. Amt4swa is a mechanic at south west airlines. Now he is guru trader on elite? What a bizzare group

I am extremely thankful I never have to work Line Aircraft Maintenance Mngt for a major airline again.....that job was 10 times tougher than any trading gig.....Amen!

BTW, I see all those esteemed and highly educated Wall Street types have such an excellent track record these days with their leverage plays......:eek: Their protected and polished educational and life experience track worked so well towards their ultimate success.....:eek:

My goal is to emulate Curtis Faith who said he made $35million after tax (I assume) and appears to be the biggest cash banked trader on these boards?If anyone knows anyone who's banked bigger here,that would be my next target.I did hear someone mention Covel was here but I assume that's an 'elite'trader myth?

The true story of this is in the book The Complete TurtleTrader.

This is actually the Curtis Faith story written by Curtis Faith. He is not mentioned in the other book. The book is Way Of The Turtle.

If you are going to lie please make it plausible! Of course Faith is covered in "The Complete TurtleTrader". In fact, it is the only complete accounting of Faith.

Yeah, yeah...like a broken record. You have some one gripe with Cato which therefore invalidates all that is Cato and makes your position right...whatever obscure point it is that you are arguing about! Can't fight that logic!
