Quote from Specterx:
Does dbphoenix actually trade? Not throwing stones, but I've never seen any live calls etc. from the guy, so it'd be interesting to hear from someone who has.
I think you can say that about 95% of those that have posted any information about their trade methodology...
You won't see them make any live calls nor brokerage statements except for a few. Regardless, it doesn't matter if dbphoenix does or not...what matters is has anyone
benefited in some way from the information he's discussed. Many (not all) have said yes.
By the way, I do remember him once posting live calls but as soon as he did...it was interesting because the viewership or interest level suddenly dropped even though the trades were winners. He quickly announced he wouldn't do live calls again and I believe that was because the readership level had suddenly declined.
You also need to realize he was already (prior to the live calls) making a consistent habit of responding to readers questions about Price Action and Volume.
There was a ton of questions. As soon as he started doing a
few live calls...he wasn't responding to as many questions in comparison to prior to the live calls...maybe that's why the readership views dropped dramatically.
In fact, I've seen such happen to many others here at ET. Those that make live calls or show statements aren't as popular as those that don't. It's just weird. In case you're curious, I don't use his trading approach, I don't use volume and I disagree with some of his personal concepts about supply/demand.
P.S. He doesn't post here any more. He post over at Traderslaboratory.com and I haven't seen any live calls over there.
