FasterPussycat,

Once again you're lying, lying, lying, making things up. Is this psychosomatic or are you a politician?

FPC, again, I am older tha 20, and I have now traded, at least part-time, for years, and full-time sometime. I have traded exclusively for about 6 months (I have hardly worked in my other business anymore ever since). And it's going well.

Regarding "Just few months back he was losing his ass or breaking even ..." - You know, quite honestly and sincerely, I think you should seek some professional counselling. Because either you're just lying, or you're really suffering identity problems.

I have never in the history since joining ET, been anywhere near breakeven, or even losing my ass. Where do you get this from???

The fact that you have little idea about trading doesn't mean you have licence to denegrate or belie others at will.

FasterPussycat / LongShot / Dik Burns;

I am not going to perpetuate this unfruitful exchange with you.

You are a blatant liar and you're too stupid and useless about it.
You aren't even entertaining anymore. You've turned into a creep.

I'll go with "Ignore you long enough and you'll go away."

So, have a nice life. Bye, Bye.

Scientist.

"Look at this to see what I mean:

-I trade, I currently (try to) average 2-3 points per day. Some days I have more, which boosts that average;
-Thursday 24/07, for example, I made over 15pts on the ES!
-I caught almost 12pts on one move! (yes - the one before the close - why? Because there was an excellent selling opportunity (retest and failure of a -triple- fibonacci confluence resistance on the Daily!, plus triple bounce off the 89EMA support with eventual failure! etc etc and more...)"


----------------------------------------------------------------------

need i say more? big "pro" trader "trying to make 2-3 points per day". Wow, impressive scientist, LOL.

Must say that:

"retest triple fib confluence resistance on the Daily!" COMBINED w/ "triple bounce off the EIGHTY NINE EMA" play ! {{whistle}}

WOW! The EIGHTY NINE nonetheless !!

and there's more ... "etc etc"!

Particularly impressive!

You redefine the term "Pro" scientist. :p
 
scientist this is your problem:

stop trying to prove to ET that you are the most intelligent "man" to ever walk the face of the earth.

I will reply to this because this is indeed interesting.

You're right, I used to trade like that a lot, I used boat-loads of TA. I thought that's what trading was. It worked well for me, but it never gave me even an idea about high performance.

It wasn't until my mentor literally forced me to wipe out all TA on every screen I had, argumenting no "real" trader does, I.e. ever seen a pit trader with TA indicators? Well, I did, and I never looked back. This was a great transformation which also soon transformed my net performance. By now, I can easily beat those figures, and no, I wouldn't have "considered" myself a pro trader then, and never claimed to. Besides it's not about what you consider as "pro" trader, but what your status is.

Interesting you're bringing that up, though. Thanks for reminding me of the many great improvements on the way.

Scientist.
