Perfect example of why Al Brooks is impossible to follow

Quote from Ol' Yella:

That virtually no one is making money trading these silly methods.
:p

Don't we know that deep down already. If people were making money and almost none of us will ever meet why not put up a statement? Why all this BS excuses.

I actually think NoDoji is a cool person that is helping people she isn't slinging books and talking about no losing days for 20 days like AB.

The truth is.........most people are afraid to ask for a statement because they know they won't ever get one and that will make their pipe dream go up in smoke when they realize this is all fantasy island.
 
Quote from Ol' Yella:


When someone said 300+% a year seems like swinging for the fences and isnt conducive to trading for a living she described some PA and EMA stuff and said:
"Is this "swinging for the fences"? One contract? I don't think so.
Is $90K a year "a living"? It is for most people."



$50K per yer on a $10K deposit is a 500%,for openers!
 
I remember NDoji trading swing trading the likes of CLF etc,....multiple positions actually
and resulting in 2-3kish p/l. This means she was probably better capitalized and well practiced than most who are starting out and had better odds of initial surviving the leveraged pressure cooker that is ES and CL day trading with the best in the world.
Chkitout , why not consider swing training with longer term goals. I couldn't compare/comment/contrast the two well and nothing is easy but it may be a constructive
suggestion. .......but I am sure you already know this. Good luck to you.
You love this shit, your not quitting, your just venting.

The truth hurts and it looks like I am one of the only people here that tell the full truth. Lots of dreamers and dream stealers abound but very few truth tellers. It's sad that folks follow gurus that confirm their biases despite not having a smidgen of evidence the guru is profitable let alone the students. When there are so many proven successful people willing to teach.

Not only do the ET paper trading gurus have dubious mentors themselves, they contradict themselves at times. Yet folks follow blindly.
 
Quote from RedTankEra:

Almost no losing days and trading crap size sounds almost like an oxymoron to me.

yeah, i mean, if i went months without losing, shoot, stupid or not, id be ramping up size very very quickly as my confidence would be in the stratosphere.

you guys dont think nodoji is al brooks do you? could that be possible?

I don't think she is Al brooks at all, that's just dumb.

The one thing that does not jive is crap size and amazing p/l green accuracy.
