That's your choice. But in another post you say you are "curious" and ask the Jackatollah to start a journal with "live calls." Looking for "live calls" on a message board just reveals you are pointed in the wrong direction altogether.

lol, you're right. I should just believe people at their word because no one has any reason to lie about being a profitable trader at all

Moreover, your charts and questions are of very low quality. You don't seem to have an adequate charting platform and data feed that lets you see the market. Straighten up, man, and learn to help yourself.

I trade on a weekly/monthly basis. My charts are more than adequate for what I do.

Since you are new to trading and ET, you missed those times.

we posted elswhere before ET was invented and after ET came on line we did a repeat.

So to see what you want to see, you need to begin to do searches.

I did some searches and the consensus on the internet is that you talk a big game but have never posted any proof, PnL statements, or live calls. And there's the famous trading contest you dropped out of after losing 22% and coming in last or whatever.

This is the #1 result:

You're actually a popular search topic. So popular, in fact, that Google has added you to its suggestions:

Searching ET reveals basically more of the same

Cheers, man. If you can get 3x the daily ATR with your always in strategy or whatever, more power to you.

At this point of my life, the only thing I believe is substantiated proof. It's easy for a profitable trader to prove they are profitable. I am not interested in reasons why these things have not been done.

The onus of proof is on the person making the claim.

the funny thing is, we are up almost 100% since 2009 and you are asking, "Is this the bottom?"

All that watered-down QE money has got to go somewhere. The stock market is a giant sponge.

Every morning when I awake and see my wife getting dressed I am reminded that the bottom is getting larger.

I thought he meant short term bottom.

yeah well, Einstein kind of explained it, it's all relative.

Last few months or so.

the shorter it gets, the harder it is to guess, but the easier it is to take a profit, and that can be a problem. If you tske a days profit on a few months trade, in the end you will take it in the shorts.

So that's why I say, if you are trading for a day, take a weeks profit, and if you are trading for a week, take a months profit, and if you are trading for a month, take a years profit.

they don't call me oldtime just because I am old. Time is money. You just admitted it when you said, "Last few months or so."

What's so special about the last few months or so?

The bottom
