For your information, I don't think highly of B1S2, and I don't even think highly of Baron sometimes. I also don't think highly of you, or your old name Jimmie Barton. As you can see, I'm nobody's minion.

And on top of all this, I think you may be one of Baron's minions because you post so much constant bullshit that I think you help increase the traffic here at ET and hence Baron's revenue.
 
My posts are confined to two threads here, one i created and the other I asked permission.

I have not polluted another's thread with BS like you are doing here.

FU & gotcha

This isn't my thread, but in my opinion, as I read your journal, I feel that it has lost its value from allowing big mac (aka. Jimmy Barton) to infest it.

First of all, I highly doubt he is even trading with real money. I know you yourself are on SIM now, but you are treating as you would with real money. The guy posts just to be heard, and it seems that he can't get enough people to read his own journal, so he has to come here.

The more critical issue though is he doesn't follow up with trades. Take yesterday, where he starts going short and adding to the position. As you can see... it looks like at least 4 contracts on the line.

He says he will start covering at 2007, which we touched very briefly overnight, by no mention of exits.

Then in the morning he starts getting all scared, saying the market is dysfunctional.

Who knows, a comment like this might make it seem like it is real money since maybe he is feeling the pain. But do you really need someone saying the market is dysfunctional in your journal? Its bullshit, and not the type of comments you need in your head. The market is what it is. To call it dysfunctional means your entries and exits are causing you to lose money, simple as that.

And then all of a sudden, he is long.

Then he spends the rest of the day adding to the ES shorts.

You do a good job of adding up all your trades in your journal, as it should be, but this yahoo is a loose cannon who is all over the place. Your journal is now impossible to follow since he takes up pages and pages, and its unfortunately all garbage.

I find that when I read your summaries, you're already failing by not following your own advice (ie. you always say what you should do, but I'm not sure if you stick to this each time and you are far too quick to make new rules, etc.) But all of this is now lost in your journal.

If you read big mac's comments as a perfect example of what not to do, then fine, there is some value there, but given how after reading your journal for a while you seem to want to be influenced by others, this is the bad sort of influence you are looking for. His trade management skills are shit, he is averaging into losing positions, he doesn't follow up every entry with an exit, etc.

If you aren't bothered by all these posts then fine, but then again, if they don't influence you, then they don't need to be in your journal. And if they do influence you, then its a bad sort of influence.

Just my 2 cents. There is a reason though why he had to go create another profile, and its because people more than likely got sick of all the same garbage he is spewing now.

I would have simply clicked the like button and moved on rather than thanking you like this but I didn't want big mac to take offense, because this note thanking u isn't about big mac cluttering the topic ...(but hey mac, it's not your journal, so Gotcha is right + u should square things with A2x2...if that's possible).

Earlier today I hit the like button on mac's comment about the open being dysfunctional, because imo that was a good description of it from my pov. Plus it was humorous. But it wasn't profitable, at the time.

I just finished replaying the open which I likely wouldn't have done if I hadn't read your reply to mac. It was quite profitable in hindsight. Some one said something long time ago that I couldn't figure out but never forgot and I understand it better, much better, today. If he hadn't already disclosed names that are attached to what I see then maybe Dysfunctional is what I would name it but that doesn't fit and makes no sense, ...but it is discrete, and doesn't repeat the mistake he made disclosing it.

so Thank You Gotcha.

Mac, ...no need to reply here but maybe u could replay the open, and post an analysis of it in your journal?
 
Let's get back to trading A2. Look forward to comment and end of day blotter.

I won't hijack your thread A2. Through a few trades out from time to times and be done with it.
