you have been replying to posts that were not directed to you and you have done it more than once in this thread itself.
Is this a conscious tactic that you want to respond to posts that are not directed at you in a personal manner? Because I think it hurts you rather than helps you gain more customers.
As a sidenote, just curious --- did you ever manage to get clients from among your ET contacts? If so, how many? Please share only if you are ok with it.
And please note I am not attacking you or your trading prowess in this comment. So, please don't come after me attacking me
Um, I don't see how that isn't an attack...
but anyway, mods are the only ones who PM me. Occasionally you'll get deranged psychos claiming to have big bucks and how you know nothing. Quite common, and why I don't do journals anymore.
There's nobody in my buds list that doesn't know how to trade so I don't market to them.
On the part of my customers they go and come at the wrong time, just like a stock I'd like to have on my stock exchange would. But as far as snakeoil I don't like seeing that word because the notion that it differentiates the group of people mentioned here offends me because it's in such close proximity to an obvious troll OP.
Daytrading is definitely an irregular thing for me, so even with him making out like his Economics degree would hold water to mine is why it's more than likely him that should be seeking advice since he's the one who wants to quit. If he knew what he was doing, he'd never quit, but when I see snakeoil followed after with no reply in the response I get testy because that word should not come to mind if there is legitimate business effort going on somehow for him to suddenly promote himself as being a "guru" guru to me has more flavor for somebody that tries to educate with what should be and what was.
What is clear here is that maybe it's been a long time since I read this thread completely through but I'm getting testy that there's no professional guidance to seek help. I don't see where a talk about economics and a degree of such makes the same range of notional probabilistic scale to income as what's offered by me, personally. I know it wasn't directed at me but the topic isn't about him becoming some guru for Christ's sake the guy wants to quit!
Now I had 119% in 12, and -9% in 13, but I'm up over 30% this month so I don't really care to commentate on some of the swings I've had in my subscriber count because you can pretty much only count on a very limited number of people who are actually capitalized well enough to be able to actually trade my strategies.
The issue I've had mostly in here is that you can't ever quit daytrading. It's not possible because some part of the psyche will always be there for me and I'm sure for the OP but he's not at all qualified just from a self-esteem issue as a trader from ever being on a C2, covestor, or worldcup.
If he's quiting, it's time for him to hand it to somebody else, because the market's going to keep going up for a very long time.
