Quote from Roman Candle:

To keep from having to deal with the consequences of bad trading decisions (or indecision), some traders will put off placing the trade all together. Others will go as far as holding a losing position, hoping the market will turn in their favor to prove their judgments right.

Why do we have such a hard time accepting criticism? For one, criticism has negative connotations, usually associated with poor performance, doing something wrong, or not being sufficient enough in the task at hand. Most people, traders included, don't take well with negative feedback or comments. Some of the psychological aspects of the way we now deal with criticism are deeply rooted in our past, from experiences with our parents and school teachers. They were in the position to correct us and tell us when we were wrong, and some were more extreme than we liked with their criticism. They definitely had a psychological impact on us was there, with many of us now transferring those experiences to our trading.
[/QUOTsal is on a bad streak as of the last 3 weeks or more, (pardon me sal 4 using u as an exam;le) ,he is having a sike break down which eventually turns to a breakthru, have to crash before you meta morph into a butterfly. Criticism on a trading forum can never be as harsh as your p/l statement which can b a lot more brutal than your rudimentary start in life,so whoever is buying this bs,is a novice,sal u r not a novice or buying this criticism, trading is a harsh mistress and there is no love , only numbers, which count at the bank , but not in sike, the object of any profession is to do as well as your peers and better than u thought u could,so on a personal note ,Sal,this aint the first time u saw this chapter and wont be the last,RC, your ego is gonna do u in ,check it at the door, this business has a way of humbling all of us and u dont want to be in the humble me please line, (how do u spell sike)


All you’re doing is encouraging him to keep trading recklessly. And he loved your support… He is sitting in a counter trend trade, wondering if he should jump because he is at break even, no doubt after a restless night.

Lets see the averages are above there 10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90,100 day averages yet lets go and short the market.

I guess he forgot asking you what he should be doing with his money and how he should be trading, why dont you post your real time trades and see how it works out.

Salvia is posting his trades in real time, he has no problem posting his losses yet you come on here and mock him.

If you are such a great trader start posting in real time.

I have posted my trades. Just because I don't flip in and out all day long does not mean I don't trade. Look back on this thread don't you see my trades?
 
Quote from pocketmoney:

Are you on the windup, RC?!lol
Saliva is one of the best consistent traders ive come across on most trading forums. If you are just trying to get at him, i think you'll be dissapointed. Ive seen a few people over the months come in here and pick at some of the traders, but each time they've been pretty much ignored and people like saliva just carry on posting their trades in ernest. Good for them.

If you want anyone to take notice of what you are saying you'll have to actually post lots of realtime trades with stops and gain some creditbiliy, othewise just let us get on with it....

Who do you work for?
 
Please refrain from personal attacks in this thread or you will be asked to leave. This thread is for discussion of ES and how to trade it including posting of realtime trades with realtime stops. Thanks in advance for your consideration-- Ishmael:)

Roman Candle was asked quite a while ago not to post here. I expect compliance--thank you. In addition, please don't quote him or answer him. --Ishmael:)
 
Quote from Roman Candle:

Way to trade your sitting at break even. It’s clear you had no real plan. Do you even have a strategy? It’s also clear you have your support from those who don’t care that your trading recklessly. I'm sure your broker loves you!
Since when did I ever sought ure advice, Mr. smartass? Oh, so it hurts you so much to see me piss away my hard earned cash? I'm deeply touched!

Alright man, you shall have your wishes. I'll stop posting my "broker loving" trades.

Ciao!
