is this a great country or what...

For those of you suffering emini traders..see What the Duck

Hey there pie...I agree 100%...the Emini has really been a turd lately...hence my switch to the eruo fx.

Since the beginning of December the Emini has virtually stopped trading it seems. Not that there havnt been a few days where its moved "pretty" good, but somethins goin on (my bet is on the HFT's circle jerkin)...mostly small dips that get bought up by heavy buying and then...a rally up to stall at the highs...with virtually no pullbacks of any depth! Whats up with that? Who knows..

My broker put me onto the euro and its really an "up and down'r"...liquid enough... and kool that you can trade it 24hrs too...seems its "dull" action moves faster than the emini at full speed. You should check it out...but be prepared for some volatility though especially btwn 8 and 11am...all an all...I aint goin back!

Hope you have a great week...(Im layin low..(NOT!)haha)

Joker!! Finally! After all these months of fun YOU get the picture! and win the prize...Im gonna make you a hall monitor...

Serious...thats all I have been tryin to say since The1 messed me up...demo or otherwise..all green...and all big!

As far as whats holding be back, back from the HUGE days, I suppose its the same thing that holds everyone else back...fear and greed. Dont get me wrong, I do alright, Ive had some BIG days and I havnt lost any money in years, but I havnt had any million dollar days like the demo. But that one day proves it can be done...bcause I did it. Not only that, and more importantly, I posted green blotters consistently ...everyday.

Would the demo help someones trading? Their outlook on their abilites? Cut through all the crap and show them their bottom line abilities? You bet. Red or Green...thats it...thats the bottom line every day for daytraders. Despite all the eti preaching otherwise, would I recommend it? You bet. If you cant make money with a demo, you dont have a shot with a live account. See, when you are in a trade, especially a crisis trade, its not a time you want to be hesitating or analyzing; when I get in my car and back up...I dont think..hand on the wheel 10-2..foot on brake..put in gear etc...I just get in my car and back up. Thats the way to trade...just a thoughtless motion...smooth and confident that your out come will be positive (and you wont back into a tree..ha).

Joker, I dont know you from adam, what you trade or whether you are successful or not. I dont have anything to sell (maybe an old bbq pit...lawnmower that wont start maybe) but since you won the prize ha, if you pm me, Im all yours...

Your an idiot, and most likely never made a real trade in your life.

"Demo or otherwise" is the most ridiculous justification for you trying to pass off your lies.

You can be the best gunshot in all the land when you are shooting at tins cans.

But see how well you do when that tin can has a gun pointed back at you.

Yep. its my first post, and here is my second. Wasn't meant to be a pep talk, more like a bitch slap, because that's precisely what you are. And I have no problem stooping to that level.

So you were working on your own personal growth, huh? Then why not say that? Why wait until you were completely caught red handed trying to pass off your BS? Our charachter is based on how we act when nobody is watching. So it is very clear the type of person you are.

I live a great life, much better than yours, trust me. But, things like this really get to me, because there are people out there who really put their money on the line every single day, and go to battle. People who have obligations, and family's to feed.

So if you are truly trying to become a successful trader, do yourself a favor, give up, and go put in an application at applebee's today. You will never make it. The market will expose you as a liar and a fake in a second.

Thats it for me, back to my amazing life.

I've done ok with the emini lately, but only because i've adapted to its absurdities and have learned when to lay low. But per your suggestion i'm taking a look at the euro fx starting next week. I've got the super bowl and a friend with a collapsed lung to get through first.

Cheers.

WOW...sorry I missed this earlier...I totally misunderstood what you were trying to say earlier!

Now I get it though...Such deep eti blah blah ... and such wisdom and benevolence! I am grateful you took time out of your amazing day to better explain...Im sorry that things like this get to you...you should probably see a therapist...but thanks so much for sharing though! ...and thanks for the job lead!

Here...let me help you out of line...your a little emotional and I dont want to chance you hurting someone...and let me show you how to work this...watch...just turn it left or right and it opens...you have an amazing day now k...

Dayhemn!...haha ... amazing or what? Get all jacked up about this shit and get kicked out of the eti line...haha...now thats amazing!
 
Since we are all getting a little bored with this...and Super Bowl is comin on...I guess I really shouldnt be so critical to the eti's.. At times, this whole thing just wrenches me...and is still hard for me to belive and accept what I did too...

Look...heres the real truth...
My gf and I had been havin a few problems...and she was already angry at me for not folding the towels. To make matters worse, when she got home from shopping, she found I had smoked the last of the weed ...and that really set her off. That was it she told me...she stomped around the house a few minutes putting her new clothes away and then, of all things, accused me of watering down the vodka! That was it she told me again...she was goin back by Nordstroms's to pick up those shoes and then...then she was going to her mothers. She stormed out the door mad and even kicked the dog...so I took a little nip...hell with her...and then another and another.

Well, here I was a week later on a drunken vodka adderall binge, with the music blasting, tradin my ass off. I was feelin great thinkin I was a kazillionaire...soon enough Id get another money ho...only to find out it wasnt my live account I had been tradin!...but rather a demo account I loaded for my granddaughter to play with... oh the pain of it all...the pain and the humiliation I suffered when I requested my broker to transfer funds to my bank account...Now I ask you..isnt that enough suffering?

Well, she finally came back, and she forgave me...and now thats all I ask from all the eti's...just have a little compassion for a non-eti... walk a mile in my shoes. She has been away shopping for the weekend and comes back tonight so I wont be around for a bit but Im asking... As you can imagine, this has been really hard for me to admit... so at least try and have a little understanding. ...and when/if I return, I promise I will do away with the eti line...or, if u cant accept the truth...you can take my immature alternative offer! I just cant do anymore to please you...

Either way, you can relish in the fact I am still suffering to this day... shes a blond...and insists on knowing what/where I stashed all the money I made...with the demo account.
 
Hey there friends and neighbors...hope everyone is profitable!

GF is gone this weekend and I get to catch up with the latest eti wisdom and...play some!

:D
 
wow...some of this shit is just TOOOOO funny!

examp: How can I be long and short the same market in the same account?

eti answer took almost the whole page to answer and then bottomed out with... open two accounts...

and the guru's...ha...defending their flops and waffles from eti's... haha...tooo funny im tellin ya...
