Quote from sheda:
People can fall under the spell of big talkers and big achievers, the failure outcome will be the same in both cases, if there is no end to reach or one does not have the skill level to reach an existing end.
What ever happens keep in mind you are talking about a developed adult who can make thier own informed choices, worrying that they are being influenced by the words of others is a little silly...
On a side note long term I suspect he will do just fine.
Quote from Ol' Yella:
Perhaps the reason why Cornix is dreaming is that he is being fed lies by his TA comrades--- it's quite possible that he believes the claims of TA expert and other brigade members are attainable.
If he can make good on his promise of 20-40% returns then he shouldn't have any money worries in his future. I think there is a danger for him however, if he lets himself fall too far under the spell of the big talkers and hindsight jockeys.

Quote from marketsurfer:
LMFAO! You have Cornix beat for fanciful dreaming. Sure, this can be done, but it is no way "fairly standard", for a manual TA trader.

Going by the account shown on Surf's journal he was on pace for 40% in a year. I hope he can make it happen!

Quote from wrbtrader:
It's also quite possible he has a profitable method that uses TA as a component of his trading plan. In addition, he seems like the type that doesn't listen to a TA expert trying to tell him how to use TA a different way.
You know the types of TA experts, they go into the threads of others and try to convince folks there's only one way to use TA profitably and its their way or they challenge other TA users.![]()
My point, cornix seems independent (not cult-able). He seem to have found his own way with whatever type of TA he's using when most have failed at it or complain they couldn't get it to work.
