We could start a separate thread on that , a profitable edge is an edge , it does not have to trade every day.
You could argue some of the forum professionals here like Visaria were trading 30 times a day on crude , but quality edge trades are very rare.Nowadays he trades rarely.
I just wait until there is money lying in the corner, and all I have to do is go over there and
pick it up. I do nothing in the meantime.
– Jim Rogers
Speculators were losers in the gold rush , only people to make money were , peolpe selling stuff to miners, at from fifteen to twenty dollars for each individual, maps , guides , education , whore houses , steamer operators , Spades, shovels, picks, wooden bowls, Indian baskets (for washing), etc.
Jim Rogers is a professional investor, who admits that he is a lousy trader. and holds quite successfully multi- year positions.
further there is more to jim roger's methodology. it is not just a matter of picking up money lying in the corner. he invests in closed economies and financial instruments which are not available to the general public.
try to clarify in your mind the difference between trading and investing.
Successful traders trade and when they are done with it they just enjoy their lives or sometimes help aspiring traders , internet marketeers try to sell snake oil to unsuspecting new traders.
trolls destroy threads and discussions , trols delete threads in support of trolls , real traders create real trading discussions.
scammers attack real traders , because real traders get in discussions with frauds and the frauds are caught!
do you expect an accomplished trader to hang out with scammers ? He has nothing or not much to learn from scammers and is likely to be mightily annoyed by the silly posturing of scammers desperately trying to impress their peers.

Exactly.
That's why I don't hang around here with you. I am annoyed by your silly +1300 postings and your continuous attempts to impress the (according to you stupid) crowd.
The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which low-ability individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability as much higher than it really is.
Because of your Dunning Kruger disease you believe you are the real professional trader and all the others are the scammers. You open dozens of new threads in which you are almost the only poster, thinking that you should teach the world how to become a professional trader.
Don Quichotte was fighting windmills, you are a modern version of this personality.
Troll, Egotripper, Bullsh....
They banned me from forums ,I was a real trader , but I don't know why
