If you want to fail as a trader, study TA

Thanks for the clarification on what you posted and what you think I should post.

I'm oriented to TA and how it works for taking the market's offer.

The rate of profit taking you are doing affords doubling capital every six days if profits are compounded and no profits are swept.

I recommend annotating as part of MADA; I also recommend logging V and P for the ES and YM since the YM leads the ES. I used your chart to annotate because you posted it in this thread.

You also saw a technical tool that leads all of these that I posted in response to Redneck giving me a "chance".

We agree on the posting of P/L. Both of us have done it in the past for long periods. I'm certain you feel that my posting prints (partial fills timing included) and you posting prints makes us different. I'm fine with our difference of opinion.

All of this refutes the thesis of the OP; I'm glad to see another vote for TA.

Okay Jack, kindness kills...you bastard ;) I think we're on the same page. No worries bud.

Here's my time stamps from the P/L posts for reference.

why do you waste your time reading and responding to a thread you feel has no value .... by contributing now your previous comments become quite moot.

i.e. if you feel TE's comments were pointless yours are now also just as pointless

point out 1 thing of value in this entire thread and i will bow down to The Expert

my posts are intended to be full of VALUE, are they coming off as POINTLESS?

i posted because i took a BREAK and was eating a STEAK


some people still are unable to see the VASTNESS of my posts for some reason



:confused:

Steak for lunch and fish for DINNER,

TheMan is officially a WINNER.

Soon i shall SLEEP,

and count me some SHEEP.



:cool:

Just to clarify Jack's posts.
He uses a speech-to-text program. This is one of the reasons his posts are so wordy.

Is that really an excuse, just talk more to the point. Typing or speaking, it is a useful skill to skip the diahrhea and say what you gonna say to the point.

Did everyone overlook the fact that Redneck was a heavy supporter of TE? I would say that goes a long distance around these parts.

Yes that is a hard one to figure.

I have the greatest respect for RN. He is usually respectful of others although I don’t think he has much use for Jack. I appreciate that RN is quick to point out BS.

I am surprised that RN has supported and defended TE. It’s the only reason that I continued to follow this tread. I try and emulate RN and keep an open mind, but as hard as I have tried I could find nothing of value in TE’s many posts.

My BS sensor was beeping continually. What really set it off was the post where TE stated that he could give us the answer but that might cause him to be kicked out of the club and that would cause him to be a less skillful trader.

Banning TE accomplishes nothing. Each of us has the capability of banning anyone, who for whatever reason, offends us by simply putting them on ignore. Toward the end I simply skipped over whatever TE had to say as soon as the post turned into a rant.

I agree but each of us are individuals.
I take it you never met anyone in person that prefered to say in 100 words what could easily be said in 10?
Thank God we are not all alike.
My comment was to inform not to criticize.
 
Its amazed me how much silliness there has been on this forum, and that it has persisted even after TE has gone.

Why do the silly posts persist I wonder, what can the idiots gain, don't they have anything more useful to do with their time. There is a simple answer of course, that the idiots responsible seem to find a cosy sense of solidarity with fellow idiots.

Regarding the real intention behind this thread, an old saying comes to mind: never look a gift horse in the mouth.:cool:

The Expert has set up a new forum for serious traders only and only those who are able to think for themselves will be invited :)

You could do a doctorate thesis in psychology using this sentence as a header.

Like ANY trader that invests vasts amounts of time and money into learning this environment isn't serious.
