How do you tell people your an E-Mini trader?

Quote from Port1385:

Many people make their money each day trading the E-Mini. Its a highly leveraged instrument where fortunes can be made in short time and there is nothing wrong with making a living off of it.

Many times I have tried to explain to people that I trade the E-Mini. In the current times, I get these wry looks as if trading is a sin. One person remarked back at me something about Madoff.

Many people think and believe that traders can only make money in an up-market. Oh not so.

The truth is that the real E-Mini trader is athletic with his positions trading in whatever direction the market chooses to put itself in. In a down or up market, money can be made.

I have never lost money trading the e-mini as the S&P just seems so easy to predict versus trading regular stocks. The S&P cannot fool anyone.

So what do you say to someone who wants to know what you do if you are an e-mini trader?

This. Finally an intelligent post to this thread.
 
The reason why people read my posts is for entertainment and thats the same reason why I post them;) I stopped taking this site seriously a few years ago. Baron enjoys the webhits he gets from my posts and I enjoy seeing all you monkeys respond to them. My favorite was where I played a guy in his 50s with only 70k left asking what to do with the rest of his life. I got quite a few PMs from it. It was funny. After a while, you just stop throwing up serious stuff on this site because there is no point.

Port1385 is a certified ELITE TROLL

Over 1400 posts of pure idiocy obviously don't go unnoticed.
 
I love the following I have on this site;) Guys follow me around quoting some posts I made in the distant past about linkedin, Fanniemae or about selling my wonderful trading system.

Who is worse? The troll or the ones who follow the troll?

Think about it. There are guys out there that actually spend their free time following me around on this site and have my greatest posts bookmarked in their favorite section. I love it!

Some guys have porn sites in the favorite section on their browser...ok thats normal. Some guys have something more cultural in their favorite section...ok thats normal. Other guys have my troll posts from elitetrader in their section, ok thats not normal;)

If you've never lost money trading the e-mini then you are probably just trading on paper, or you are very new and have only made one or two trades.

The S&P can fool anyone, it's only in hindsight that a few sagacious posters at ET claim to have nailed the market.
