answering questions in detail to guide new traders, ask away.
You're a good Man, AttoCEL .............. I like your style and your sense of humor.
I am however surprised you lasted 5 months in this thread for the following reasons .........
(1) Casting pearls amongst swine guaranties that old timers will shut you down. They started pouring in from post #2, no comm lag. NO NEWBIE EVER STOOD A CHANCE AT THIS SITE! And in a BEAR market which by definition brings out the worst social moods, its much, much worse.
(2) Not a single newbie, your intended recipients of help,
ever got in - why? they would instantly be discouraged by the the post count and seniority of the oldtimers and scamper away and run for cover. After running away, what would the newbies be left with? Follow only the oldtimers = guarantied life of pittance. Damn shame!
(3) Repeated by oldtimers will be the usual, "why should I teach and give away secrets for free?"
Bottomline: you will be mired in sh*t and/or shut down! That's just the way it is.
At a place like ET the only newbie if any who could succeed in learning nothing from people who know nothing but unbeknownst to the newbie at first, is the newbie who is both self-dtermined and pan-determinded at the same time, i.e. can take responsibility for BOTH sides of the game. Rare to find a newbie like this. 99.99% just perish by entering this godforsaken place.
Nobody notices. The stench of death is so prevalent it has become normal operation.
