I know a lot of successful people who do all sorts of things; some even work from home. However, I don't know any successful people who are trolls on internet message boards.

Oh man that is one of the funniest posts ever!

Except on ET where almost everyone is a huge winner, trolls as well as the elves, pixies and of course all our dear fairies.
Only our hobbits are down for the month.
 
So, only losers daytrade from home?

More even, Super-losers daytrade from their home, with a computer in their bedroom?
More yet, Super-ultra-losers daytrade from their parents' home they live in?

More on the types of losers...

Losers daytrade at home with a movie playing in the DVR
Super losers daytrade with porn on the tube and their mom upstairs
Super ultra losers daytrade while watching a Lindsey Wagner show on the WE network

Losers trade in their 3 day old whitey-tighties underwear
Super losers have so many skid marks, there is a brown racing stripe visible on the outside
Super ultra losers have skid marks on their chair because they do not wear underwear.

Losers daytrade outer month pork belly futures by flipping a coin for long or short.
Superlosers daytrade outer month bellies with 20 minute delayed quotes, and call Vinnie's hotline for trade setups.
Super ultra losers daytrade outer month bellies using SCT nested astro-gann fractals and can only go long since the keyboard on their dad's 386 has been long busted.

Even quainter than the Amish
 
Quote from Jerry030:

So you still trade the old way: looking at screens full of cute colored lines and charts and typing orders on a keyboard? (In contrast to using a program to do it automatically, with no need for you being present at all)

That's quaint. I think our culture is diminished when everyone adopts modern inventions and lets the old ways die off.

I can guarantee you that any automatic way or method you come up with will be quickly outmoded within weeks to several months.

On what basis do you make that "guarantee"?
Where can I buy a default swap on it?

I've had NN models trade consistently for 40% of the length of the training dataset.

Train on 10,000 bars = trade for 4,000 bars then rerun model with more recent data.

Train on 100,00 bars trade for 40,000

Sure beats sitting in "The Office" all day staring at all those cute colored lines. It allows time for having a real life, travel, enjoyment, etc. or just waste your day posting on ET.

However I can understand your distress at going the way of the villiage blacksmith....
 
it's a free country, ie Britain
people are free to trade from home
we are free to take a shit and execute as many orders as we want
we are free to trade while on holiday
we are free to boycott BP stations and be long on the symbol
 
Is this another example of extreme language that isn't to be taken as truth?

:p

No, it's just distress by an old time manual trader who doesn't know programming
