Sorry, but you are missing the point.
Your statement about not lasting a year has no basis in fact. You have no way of knowing if that particular individual will or will not succeed.
Therefore, you were being mean-spirited, and you should be bloody ashamed of yourself.
Is winning an argument so important to you that nothing else matters?
You couldn't be more wrong. I'm far from mean spirited. I believe the method he describes as using is guaranteed to fail over the longer term-- hence my bet. What's wrong with disagreeing with the long term effectiveness of a trading tactic? I hope he changes his tactics to ensure his long term success. Could I be wrong? No question about it. I can only go by my direct experience. surf
âIt is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.â
Theodore Roosevelt
Whoa, this is starting to sound like I am questioning someone's faith rather than a trading tactic.
I guess you will never understand the difference between being critical of a method and critical of a person.

Nope. The guy made it where you failed.
What is your basis to say he will fail within the year?
Besides being bitchy, that is.
23 years of direct, hands on experience in the financial world.
I hope he makes it in a huge way and proves me wrong. I know folks who would pay a guy like that more money than you can imagine, if he has a real edge.
Peace,

That pig won't fly. People who have closed minds typically end up with 1 years experience, 23 times.
He used a method that worked, despite all the pathetic souls who say it could not possibly work.
There is no bloody way you can prove it will stop working within the year.
1. I use multiple strategies-- only those interesting enough to write about enter my journal yes, at times I hold positions too long.
2. Wrong. I only want others to think for themselves. I could care less if you or anyone else believes what I have to share.
3. You have over 30k posts, do any of them add one bit of value to the trading community?
