Just out of curiosity, and this is geared towards the haters on this board, have you ever heard the phrase
"when some one tells you why you can't or why that is impossible....they are really telling you why they themselves can not or why they think it is impossible for themselves?"
Stop thinking so damn black and white. Do some folks lie about results, you betcha. Are some folks making the kind of $$ that haters here are saying is impossible....I guarantee it!
Risk? Risk is in the mind of the trader. If an individual is flipping her account value 50 or 100 times a day.....is that excessive risk? What if her average up day is 2 or 3 points while her average down day is only a hundred bucks or so? What appears as high risk to an outsider is such because he has not been informed as to said trader's methodology that results in drastically outsized up days as compared to down days.
Rather than question an individual's results, why not simply inquire as to their daily thought process. Then, if they are not interested in sharing their own ideas, you can ignore their future posts. Several of the more experienced traders on this and other boards (or at least who I perceive to be "more" experienced) have shared many tidbits as to how their mind works.....but for god's sake, don't expect them to hit the keys or read all the charts for you. Think outside the box, or at least a little above it!
Good trading to all!
