First month Being an ET Sponsor: insights

[KCalhoun]

Thanks to Baron for letting me upgrade to paid sponsor status, it's been a great first month. Lots of visibility and new leads..

What would all of you like to see from me here at et?

I'm assuming more real trade PnLs, complete transparency re all wins & stops with trading insights.

Sponsor lessons learned (I've been here over a decade as non-sponsor):

You guys are generally tough but fair. Educators usually get rightfully bashed, since most are bsers who don't trade. I trade and regularly show real trade PnL proof, which earns respect.

I don't mind disagreements, I like debates. But I won't accept lies or bs against me. Unlike meek sponsors, I give as good as I get and defend myself, often with humor.

Some people are trolls or competitors to whom I will always say #biteme and #gofckyourself

Many more of you are reasonably intelligent and it's great to talk trading with you #smarttraders

I'll continue to post real money P&Ls and lessons learned, to add value and earn trust.

Anyways, THANKS to all of you who find my posts useful and who chat in the forums!

I'm looking forward to my third month as a sponsor, it's genuinely been a lot of fun, and I've learned a lot from many of you.... et has quite a few smart traders, not just posers lol.

I like that you guys are a smart, tough crowd. You would correctly eat other educators for lunch; because most educators don't even trade live and couldn't post recent P&L examples like I do. So it's a good fit.

Thanks for not going too hard on me for trading small size, I realize at this point I should be trading more capital. By holding myself accountable re feeling pressure to post examples of both wins and stops, it helps me focus on improving.

Anyways, thanks for your posts, both agreements and squawks, it's worthwhile. (^_^)
