that's not entirely true George, I have picked up quite a few tricks from some ET members, you included.
 
I wouldn't go as far as saying that it is impossible to make money in zero-sum markets like futures (and options).

I WOULD say, though, that most who try could make a better living getting a degree or two and obtaining a real job with a real salary and such.
 
It's actually a negative-sum game. You gotta keep putting more cash into it just to make it break-even at zero-sum... hence the need for a job... ;)

you are talking out of your ass. Don't generalise, muppet.
 
Assuming you were objecting the negative sum game comment then it was correct. The sum is Winner + Loser for zero sum here but the Exchange + Broker also take money out so the sum is negative.

So if you have a winning trader and a losing trader then one of them needs a job as well to pay the exchange and the broker :)
 
romik i will say u r an exception for sure.......the attitude reflects sincerity....it certainly can be done.....without a doubt...i beleive anything you say based on et posts by you.......i hope u make millions....b1b2...4re...all class people........later

that's because you buy new highs.

It's still impossible Billy.

I hope you never get past your backtesting/papertrading stage. Its for your own good.
