Quote from creekboy:

i thank you for your continued defense - he challenged me in another aspect of life -and i need to find out the magnitude of his honesty and character - and i got my answer -just how many people can be following his trading calls when he himself cant remember what days he trades -
but i got my answer -and thanks for your comments -
More...

If you had begun a thread that said, "Alan Claycomb's journal" instead of Mustard Seed, it might have caught my attention before.

Here's my one response to your threads before this alias goes on ignore. For the record:

#1: I did not trade the Monday in question, as you read in the blog. I had one trade fill left open without a stop that executed about the time a Mack truck crashed in my front yard. You saw the pictures, like everyone else

#2: couple of years ago you wrote to tell me that your grandfather gave you some super-secret ES timing method based on options values, etc.

in the same email exchange which I have somewhere in my "sent" files gathering dust, you said it's easy to average +8pts ES daily.

#3: you offered to do some type of comparative results gentlemen's contest, which I declined and explained why. I suggested you start a blog and create something of benefit to others. You know, explain a vit about what you do, share some insight, etc. Pretty much what you did in the many emails to me

your reply was that you are barely literate with email, you couldn't figure out anything else. well, looks like you under-estimated yourself because look at you now :)

#4: you said you had roughly $2 million available for me to manage, so you need to see years worth of trading results before turning over control. I replied that I'm not now and never intend to manage anyone's money, sorry I cannot be of help there.

truth is, with your ability to average +8pts ES daily like it says in your email on file, not sure why you'd feel a need to farm out control of your $2 million capital there. in all honesty alan, if I could average +160pts ES monthly in these conditions, I'd be trading that $2 million myself. But hey, that's just me :)

#5: fwiw, your cut & paste efforts here prove nothing. they can be typed in a Word doc at will. if I cared more, I'd mock one up that shows +$50,000 gains yesterday looking exactly like yours in this forum.

but the fact is I don't care about you at all, or your results, or anything you do = don't do.

now if you'd like to really be helpful, I respectfully suggest you spend the rest of your energy explaining some things about what the traders here need to look for in their charts. that would be a great use of your time

lastly, I never challenged you in any way about anything in the past. I have always treated you with respect in our couple dozen email exhanges. now I'll respectfully post this same note in your other thread, place your alias on "ignore" and wish you the best of success in all parts of your life :D
 
i thank you for finally posting - but did you trade monday the 20th of september -thats what i am concerned about - you wanted me to post my blotters over here and i honored your request - so please honor mine - thanks for your response
 
Hey Alan,



are you still an active trapper, or is that something you have retired from?



just wondering if you wanted a friendly competition as to who catches more ringtails this season :)


austin and i are both trappers -we catch and kill by the foot -austin challenged me to catch more ringtails (raccoons ) this season -
and i found my answer as to wether i can trust his season total -
so there will be no killing competion with honest austin p -
if you cant remember monday sept 20th howe can you remember what you really catch-
again austin thank you for your timely response after 6 weeks -

in bernard baruch's book
there is no 1 better than you
than again your no better than any 1 else till you prove it -

and you proved it to me -

but fell free to demoralize my post after all it is 6 weeks of proven green
 
email i sent responding to your request-


Fri, August 20, 2010 5:00:10 PM
Subject: mustard seed


hey austin -
started the 2 nd mustard seed to compete against you -
just for fun so you know -
ended up the week at 18.2% increase -had 1 draw back day on wed -of 91.50 -
heard your video
try v-8 fusion fruit and vegtable drink -from the moment i sit down i start sipping -they are about 1 liter each and i drink a different flavor everyday -
good luck with the rest -
 
Alan, I made a mistake. I went to put you on ignore, then thought twice about that.

Now here you are, an ultra-successful ES trader who by your own modest admission can average +8pts ES daily with your family secrets... paying all this constant attention to little ol' me.

A trader with $2 million he needs managed (the math you emailed me) for whatever reasons, I assume too rich and too busy for trading it personally?

That would seem odd, considering you have time to flip 1-lots ES proven by a copy-paste blotter example. But, who am I to prejudge?

Seriously, a man of your bloodlines and capability in the market has a lot better things to do than fixate (obsess) over someone else. I know I certainly don't have that luxury of free time. But do appreciate your long-standing adoration of me & mine.

So in appreciation for the dozens of emails you have sent me thru the years, I took a couple of minutes to copy/paste my blotter especially for you here below. Admittedly I find it hard to average +160 ES index points monthly as you proclaim, but here's the proof below that I'm as green as you are:

So there's your concrete, ironclad proof right there Alan. If you'd like to see more, I can copy/paste a whole year's worth of detailed info just like that. Just let me know what it takes to manage that $2 million account of yours collecting dust there, and you'll be awash in proof that matches your own.

btw... I do get down your way quite often, next time thru I'll call ahead and stop on by to see you in person. We can enjoy a cup of coffee together and compare notes in person :cool:
