Name one PERSONAL insult ever posted by myself or even an alias suspected to emanate from the surf shack.
That sounds like a perfectly reasonable request. Thankfully, however, surf does not disclose his trading "methodologies," so there is little to discuss in that regard. For this, some of us are grateful. However, he continues to refer to the "uncanny accuracy" of the "surf systems." Since this is a journal thread and the OP regularly makes boisterous performance claims, would it be too much to hold the fellow to account by...asking him whether he is net positive? In his JOURNAL thread? Would such a request qualify as a "personal attack?" Or would anything bumpier than acquiescing to his predictably regular bouts of self-aggrandizement be considered bad form and, to quote surfer himself, reminiscent of "socialist worker party meetings in your comrades RV where everything is shared."

Of course your demands are not personal attacks. However, this is my journal and I can reveal as little or as much as I wish. May I remind you, you do not have to read the surf report. Why you continue to read and comment on the surf report must be due to you gaining some benefit --- trading wisdom, humor, I don't know. But definitely something.
Sure: RCG was your recent target in Covel's thread. Don't get me wrong, I don't like the guy either, but spawning aliases to sling mud is just wallowing in the gutter.
There should be no double standard for those who just can't stick to one ET account. You and ET user "cold" are the two people here than get under my skin for consistently doing so, and you've done it all the time in the past.
Once again, name one personal attack. There aren't any--
What's your other alias by the way?
As ET user "Dalmation", you've said the exact opposite to me in other threads.

You've hounded me and flung some personal attack at me just because I choose not to spend my time posting live calls. You want to reveal "as little or as much as you wish" but I am not allowed this?

The difference is I don't claim to be a super trader. In fact, I make lots of mistakes.
You On the other hand have made claims such as you started from very little and now make a very good living trading with TA charts. See the difference?
This is why your claims needed to be challenged. I don't make any claims beyond individual trades and what my years in this business taught me what is and is not real.
If you don't see the difference, I can't help you.
Once again, name one personal attack.

"But I think Covel already had this idea along with the next book featuring more of ET's cranks and charlatans in detail. People should know better than to post some of this stuff in public or emails where it could end up in a national best seller. maybe you could gather these supposed remarks to make his research easier?"
The person you and Covel were referring to, in all your oblique jabs about charlatans and nobel prize nominees, was proflogic or RCG or (whoever it was that originally made the claim). But what's annoying is that <i>in the thread itself</i> you use both marketsurfer and Dalmation at the same time for your jabs.
Fractal, 2006-2010. May he RIP.
It's not that I disagree with you. What he implied seemed ridiculous when he described it, but there may be a context there that I don't care to look into.
Just say it under one name, and just stick with one name. The libertarian in me has no qualms about people disagreeing -- angrily and vociferously at that. It's the willful deception you engage in by using sockpuppets to agree with you, in the same thread, that is a nuisance.
Thanks, I see your point how the supposed " double teaming" could be irritating.
But, I disagree those were personal attacks. They were based on crank and charlatan like statements made on elite and other published places.
