Hitman - Best ET Journal of All Time!

Quote from Satan's Helper:

I think I remember that happening. He started a on line group and Barron had a issue with that. He was recruiting without paying for sponsorship. At the same time Don Bright was sponsoring the board and Hitman was recruiting the same people Don and the other sponsors had to pay to also recruit.

Wow.. IMHO that's pretty short sighted of Barron. As I understand, people like Hitman (among others) actively contribute information we like/need to consume. It makes thousands upon thousands of wondering souls flock to ET and therefore sponsoring/advertising has any business value. Barron basically slaughtered the chicken laying the golden eggs I think. I subscribed to ET for the golden eggs, not some sponsor/advertiser that's probably trying to sell me the new snake oil or holy grail.

End of the day, Baron makes the rules. Hitman thought he was above the rules. He wasn't.

I enjoyed his thread though. It wasn't that he was some master trader. He was a small time scalper. But he seemed honest. He laid it all out there, failures and successes.

The best trader ever on ET was Seanote. Guy was a regular market whisperer.

Always interesting to read stuff of actual Market Wizards, so I really appreciate your tip.

Thanks!
 
It was a great journal. Like a trading soap opera, worth coming here each day to read. Would be a really interesting follow up to see where he's at now.
 
I remember him.

I didn't follow him much because the whole scalping/prop firm thing was never my gig, but he was an interesting fellow.
 
Another from that time was Praetorian?? Last I recall he had set up some fund and was trading pennies (i think).

Anyone know what became of him?

Seanotes journal was good, but too short. I think he was working on moving into ES.

Another good journal was 42yotrader (something like that). That guy went on to make some serious dough.

At the other end of the spectrum were guys like "fasterpussycat". :D
 
I'm friends with Praetorian.

He runs a fund and is doing pretty well - haven't seen him here in a long while.

I was missing from here a few years myself.

I did a search and found 40yotrader and he has contributed massively to ET.

Thanks for the tip!
