Malicious Multinicks Stalking

[BONECRUSHER]

I'm guessing that what turned this whole affair into something of a cause célèbre is the unrelenting, disingenuous or naive push-back in the face of clear evidence. And as we all know, arrogant stupidity attracts attention. So here we are. (Why do you think 45 got, and continues to receive, so much press coverage.)

People lie to belong...then they lie even more when confronted. They go from insecure and delusional to insecure, delusional and now scared...seen it a thousand times. Has any of your kids ever lied, but wouldn't confess no matter how much evidence was against them? With these internet scumbags now being exposed, it takes their fantasy away and humiliates them in front of everyone...even though none of us know who they really are!LOL My point on this, they will probably keep lying even if it means going down with the ship.

I have been on this site since 2005, had a 2 year option trading journal years back which I eventually stopped because I learned the following:

Oh and I am not comfortable posting my resume as Dest is but my background has been attacked numerous times. I don't put my private shit out here while others try to. I am more than willing to do the private skype chat with Baron and show my bottom line numbers in my tax returns to show my net worth is comfortably 7 figures. People reference a book or class, I made more money last month than any of these has given me in their lifecycle, they are/were hobbies so go ahead and attack them.


Lessons :

1. It takes way more effort to keep up a journal than to simply trade and it only serves as a distraction.

2. Even after months of live trades with prices verifiable and profits posted, people still call B.S. so what is the point.

3. For every person that likes the strategy you are using and participates there are 4 more non-traders who think it is shit and dump all over the journal.

4. The profits/losses are real in my account whether I post them or not, so what is the point in the long run if the above three points dominate?

5. People who spend a lot of effort writing thoughts in a logorrhea fashion usually have little time to trade since it is impossible to day trade options/futures/stocks and write long winded posts. Most traders are direct, abrubt and to the point.

Also I have seen plenty of posters come and go so I start to recognize what the first stages of the B.S. are and when it eventually runs out, the disappear unsurprisingly.

Even my own post this long bothers me...

I hear you. I do appreciate that a few guys like destriero and you do it (and/or have done it), to show that it's possible. I first heard about you guys here and read both of your stuff on the old fattails forum also. Without that being done, I'm not sure I'd take trading seriously as I don't know anyone personally who does it with any success.

Not only that, guys like you and dest and a handful of others are the only reason I come to this site. I've been around long enough to smell the bullshit from a mile away on these forums, so I don't even bother to waste any time reading anything from clowns like Xela & Co.

I find it hilarious when he calls these people out though, pure entertainment. Who does it better than destriero? Props! But this Xela shit was like... Wtf? He didn't even lace in at all, simple question and he was fried.

lol you were the one who asked about the constant volume charts. I had no idea about the "hedge fund" BS until receiving all of the PMs. Good times...

I have gotten more ornery over the years though..the market does not make you more polite..

When someone is using sock puppets, shills, aliases--does it really matter whether their motivation is financial? Did she get "clients" from those PMs? Are they too embarrassed to come forward?

lol yeah I wanted to know what the hell he was talking about when he said futures volume helped his FX trading. The whole thing got deep and escalated quick. Then the apostles came out of the woodwork lol.

For me this is the real puzzle about xela's fake persona. I've seen her posts across 3 forums over more than 3 years and never once saw her seeking money. We "liked" each other's posts and dialogued so much that she would have reached out to me for sure if she was after a financial reward. I did even get a PM from her once when we both turned up on a forum after she had stomped off a previous forum: it was just a "hello".

This brings me back to the supposition that alex has a personality disorder compelling him to create imaginary people and inhabit their lives. Rather a tragic case.

OK I admit, I wired 10k into a numbered offshore account for wisdom to be named at a later date....did I do wrong?

I think if you are not selling anything then you are indirectly pumping information to guide people towards another product that you indirectly are a part of. Also there is simply the personality disorder of the isolated loser who seeks friendship and acceptance online so they live in that world and lie.
