What I've discovered at ET about the real state of affairs in trading, has been attempted by one or more authors in the past but they never succeeded because they did not know trading and could not spend the time therefore to get into the nitty gritty on a daily basis by reading what people wrote.
I believe some others here at ET have guessed that forums are full of sh*t but perhaps they would back off from saying that about ET.
But by being a trader myself and taking gobs of time to search and read posts and find nuggets I have been in a unique position to discover the following
(1) I am a Loser and belong with this site of Losers call ET aka Loser Central
(2) Nobody wins here in the long run. All are broke to the bone
(3) Small time nickel and dimers abound. I figure 2k -6k accounts tops. All grossly undercapitalized
(4) If compared in a parallel manner to the Universities of the world, ET would be considered Kinder Garten
(5) There is only one difference between me and all the others here. I have money but being here for a long spell guarantees I will lose it all. why? the forceo f Misery loves company is too great to thwart off. I will die too the longer I stick around. the problem is I like it. But I know it will and can kill me.
(6) To have a chance of survival I will have to get out no later than December this year.
These secrets have not been divulged to any person outside ET by me. They never will be. Its too goddamn heartbreaking and shattering to witness so much DEATH and stupidity all in one place
The ET song applicable to all traders INCLUDING ME, the biggest loafer of all
