I want to raise $10 million to trade...

Quote from Lizard Frier:

Those cars are money traps. bigtime. If your gonna buy such a bucket, make sure that it came from an aged widow that had it garaged, regularly serviced and was lightly used. For 8K, you could go to one of those lease swapping sites and pick up a newer entry lux mobile possibly with a warranty. If your gonna buy at that level, consider a Toyata Landcruiser. Also, designer knockoff duds can be had for cheap on Ebay nowadays. Good luck.

exactly a friend bought a used lightly armored s320 92 year model. last him a couple of years that's all, it was a bigtime money trap
 
Wow.. You're so right. I will only be hurting people if I manage money. Never really thought about it from the perspective of the investor. And my parents were always right.. They told me to put yourself in the other person's shoes and see it from their perspective.. But, I guess I didn't do it from the investor's perspective. I only saw the $$$ and forgot that there were people behind it.. and emotions that could be hurt.

I agree with you in that I probably should not manage OPM.

Thanks for the great advice.



Quote from JB3:


Here's my TOP 10 reasons NOT to invest with you.

1) You have proven that you have no concept of trading. (just read any of your rubbish in all your threads)
2) You have no edge. (money management is not an edge, it is a wonderful and powerful addition to an edge.)
3) You can't even successfully trade a paper account. (And don't give me this BS about how you can't enter a trading competition because you only trade well with real money because we all know that is complete and utter horse dung.)
4) You don't understand the inner workings of the market. (you remind me of the kid who has read every book on the market, but probably have never stood on the floor of an exchange or worked with a real professional floor trader). You basically just live off other's experiences through exaggerated books.
5) You are greedy. (Because all you talk about is making tons of money without just making money from the market)
6) You are impatient. (you don't see the market in years which is a fallacy and shows your lack of insight on money management and staying in as a career.)
7) You are fearful. (You don't have any of your own money to trade, you fear to lose, you fear it will take too long, and worst of all, you try to eliminate fear by trading other people's money because it doesn't cost you a thing...slimeball.)
8) You are lazy. (You just want to get an ad in the paper like the next snake oils salesman instead of actually building a real track record of a few years or just enter a trading contest to display your trades, nowhere do I see you actually putting in any work to earn any money.)
9) You are a liar. (With every contradictory thing you have said in this forum, this is very evident.)
10) You are a snake oil saleman. (You want to trade OPM because of your delusions, and in the process, will destroy many people's and their children's lives because they have worked very hard to earn their money. Of course, this doesn't seem to bother you.)
 
Has anyone ever noticed how Ripley is always referencing his parents.

They probably put his lazy ass through college.

He can't buy real easte without them.

He probably is trading an account which is actually in their name (that's how he gets around the illegality of trading his own account AND working in the financial industry).

... and finally, they taught him morals (boy did they do a shitty job).

He talks about moving away from them, but I sincerely doubt that is going to happen.

And this is the guy who is the best trader on the board, and had the nerve to come on here and ask how he can find people to bilk (as if).

Like I said before, pathetic, more and more so with every lame-ass thread he starts.

start a blog and document your trading so that everyone can see your performance. You will get a boatload of people knocking on your door to give you their money to manage http://lauristonletter.blogspot.com/

That sure as shit is NOT going to happen!

P.S. - however, it was a nice way to sneak in and get advertising for your blog spot, nothing like shitting a shitter! :D :p :cool:
 
Quote from firstchoice:

Hey JimmyJam when you going to start another ES journal? Or do you have one going on now? You had a good one going on last year with screen shots of your daily trades.

Nah, I'm totally focused on my own trading this year. Provided the market continues to give us decent volatility, I'm hoping for a breakout year myself (but I won't make billions like Ripley :p ).

Glad it helped, just try to be consistent with your trading setups and use risk and money management well ... concepts that Ripley says he is familair with, no doubt, he got them from one of the many books he's read.

Quote from marketsurfer:

Long live the dream!

if ripley has the moxi to carry it out, he may just make it.

much negativity on elite lately. stock market top imminent.

surf:)

LOL, you're just upset because your ass backwards journal isn't garnering you anymore attention. Maybe it's the fact that:

1) at least 1/2 of all of your trades are wrong as rain,
2) you never give detailed information about your money management,
3) your losses are always taken with "small numbers",
4) but your wins are always "trades with size", etc., etc., etc.

Hey, I thought you were lifting anchor and setting sail for fresher waters? ... maybe someplace where nobody knows about your EUR/USD Pair trade that wasn't! LOL :D :D

Hey, maybe you and Ripley should start a Hedge Fund together. It could really work out pretty well because:

1. You'll supply all of the business contacts (you've said you know quite a few rich people), um, yeah.

2. Ripley has the credentials ***somewhere he mentioned that he has a Masters or some such thing - don't know in what discipline*** and he has had a professional job as an analyst LOL translation: (butt boy for the financial industry).

3. You know were to get the tux rentals, and you know where to find a local beat up old mansion (man, the sh*t that people come up with around here).

4. Between the two of you, with your flip-flopp'in counter-trending up/down trading system and Ripley's NO CAN LOSE e-mini scalping/swing trading system (which is scalable to millions and millions) you should be able to churn out enough financial reports to fool even the most astute old gay guy with money (Ripley's target market) ... guess he enjoys his current position a little too much.

Let me know when you're hanging your banner, I'll be sure to place ads telling people to stay as far away from you as possible.
