AMT has always been helpful and answered every Q I have had. I have looked through all his past posts and do NOT SEE 1 post regarding his website.

Personally, I am ecstatic to get the chance to learn the Zones and Divergences. But thats me and we all find different values to things.

Anyone who has been on this board for any period of time has seen AMT CONSISTENTLY show that he knows what he is talking about. Meaning realtime trades that were consistently profitable.

AMT, best of luck with the website and Hoping to learn as much as possible as usual.

Thanks for always taking the time to reply to all Qs.

I just checked AMT's blog in which he posted that he took a short off 993 touch. For a position trade, I'm assuming he used the CDV from early November, the last time we were at that price level. It's likely that we'll have ample retests as we continue to climb higher, otherwise CDV is out of reach (my DB only goes back to March).

PS I asked AMT to add the ability to comment on his blog. Until he does that, well, this thread may continue to serve as an idea exchange medium (as well as entertainment, of course...)

Auction results are out. ok, thats over.

Now it is time for this thread to also be over and moved to chit chat.

Amt is an ok guy and if he makes money on a website, good for him. But it is time to move on you guys. I for one was always skeptical of those that say this high or low was a winner when taken in middle of the night and after taking more heat than the devil himself. there are easier ways to cook a goose.

SEND this spam now to chit chat.

I did NOT say anything about his method so please dont put words into my mouth. I do not fully comprehend it so am not able to pass judgement at this time.

If you do not comprehend the AMT method then presumably you are rational enough not to try and trade it.
In which case what on earth are you doing on this thread.

By the way, how did you get caught short in this rally.

There is only a small problem with this statement. Today is Thursday. It is very easy to make 8 pts on Mon and 12 pts on Tues because today is Thursday. It is also easy to do on Wednesday.

Why do you do these children tricks?

It is no big deal really.

Ken probably made 10 points Wednesday, thereby maintaining his perfect 10 point average.
Even if Wednesday sagged to 7 points he will make 13 points today to maintain the perfect 10 point average.

You are mistaken. Ken will know next Friday (tomorrow) how many points he made on Wednesday, and it will be Monday, at the soonest, for him to let us know how many points he made tomorrow.

All this past and future trading confuses me a lot since I live in the permanent now. Excuse me for my possibly large stupidity. Can anyone teach me how to make 10 points per day in the now moment so that I can back to shikantaza?.

 

[paul_alan]

we all got our 10 today?
I post mine in the ES journal most days. 13 points today in fact....live! Check it for youselves. One thing talking about it and another actually proving it, eh Kenny boy ?

Try and see it this way and I think you will find the picture much clearer and less likely to make your head hurt.

Ken knows how many points he will make next week and the week after that and the week after that ....
Yes, you guessed it 10 points per day average = 50 points per week.

Because he knows the outcome there is hardly much point in Ken trading, and so he doesn't.

Instead he spends his time telling ETers that he is averaging 10 points per day.

See how your head has stopped hurting already

I understand. I guess that rules out Ken as a possible mentor, and delays my return to shikantaza. Another dissapointment. I never imagined trading would be that difficult. I have been looking for a profitable trader mentor for 7 days already, and not even $37 per month seems to be enough.

Disappointing for you really, as in true zen style you have put yourself everywhere and nowhere.

Still don't give up as you are within the hallowed heartland of trading....namely ET

Perhaps if you offered a stimulus in the order of 37.25 you might flush a mentor out of the ether.
I am sure you could clawback the 37.25 from the US Treasury, since everyone is doing so.

I think I will spend the $37 in a bag of rice and go back to meditation for at least two weeks. This "trading" is entirely too stressfull. Thanks for the valuable information about Ken's past-futures-traderless-trading.
