Enough talk, as with my Brother, throw the book at "the self certified professionals" and see where it settles.
Deposit balance 0.3527BTC 15th December, Withdrawal balance 1.0369BTC 15th February for 0.6842BTC or 193% profit over two months, making 96% return per month.
Which is 20x more than anyone on these forums, let's ignore the fact that I worked, say round it up to 8hrs for those gains, which makes me 400x more efficient, let's ignore the fact that I can go to 1,000x efficiency for short periods, let's ignore the fact that I made towards double again when adding in non-leveraged BTC trades, let's ignore the fact that as I have access to the fintech I can teach anyone from a grad to an institutional trader how to make those returns in 1-3mths, let's ignore the fact that my primary trading instruments are forex and futures, let's ignore the fact that no one else is showing their returns. It's still 20x more than anyone can do on these forums.
A simple narrative arises, anyone can bypass the 10,000 hours training and match the returns of even the "veterans" on these forums, they won't know why it works, but it works, you only have to follow the funding rules https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/new-guy-here-just-signed-up-today.320303/page-2#post-4642821 and the timeframe rules https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/new-guy-here-just-signed-up-today.320303/page-2#post-4643031.
Now, if they want to have 10x efficiency they need the fintech, if they want 100x efficiency they need to have the fintech and the methodology, if they want to have 1,000x efficiency they need the fintech, the methodology and the 10,000s hours, I have all three. Could I have "sponsored" access for these people, sure, there's still JS and C# coding to be done as an example.
But, and here's the key part, the path of least resistance is following the rules above, and trading to 1-2% or 3-5% return on capital per month, with each cycle starting at 1.25% (1-2% returns) or 2.5% (3-5% returns) and doubling on each successful trade to a maximum of four times. Any loss you go back to the start, any breakeven you take yourself down a peg or two. Rinse and repeat, but adding each unit (1.25%) as 4 feathered (0.3125%) tranches. It will project you to the top 1%, which is breakeven and the start of profitability, within months, no decade in sight.
Quora is usually the better option to find me, technically it's now accredited but I have some leverage. The "self certified pros" will say "it doesn't work that way", it does, my trades are here, that's where their "out-out" narrative starts and my "opt-in" approach ends. It's a novel concept, if you want it you have to ask to opt-in, but first get to the 1%.

I do not understand what you are attempting to communicate. Your previous statement of an objective "I" is a fictitious narrative that is not truthful. If the "I" cannot see beyond this fallacy, then we are in disagreement about the nature of duality, the structure of reality and the human experience thereof.
If one accepts the fallacy of an objective "I", then facts and opinions lose their independent distinctions.
Very good, the fallacy of the objective. I generate 400x more than anyone on these forums, any new trader can generate 1x what the best of retail can do if they follow the rules and do one simple thing, don't ask "why" following the path of least resistance. If they want 10x (semi professional) they need advanced fintech, if they want 100x (professional) they need fintech and methodology, if they want 1,000x (institutional) they need fintech and methodology with at a minimum 10,000 hours for the "why", but that is a different conversation for another day because first they have to hit parity, meaning accredited no less.
Modern day slavery is 1:100 input/output (cost of input:gains realised), due to InsightR and PRT I run at 1:400 input/output, with no human capital involved. Many on these forums will be running negative towards 100:1, a few at 1:1, that's about as good as it gets. There is one simple goal, anyone, and I mean anyone, can generate the same returns as the best here with 10x and in some cases 100x less hours going through the 1,000:1 to 1:1 normal distribution learning curve, not many make it above 1:1 which is the peak of the cycle, evidenced by the lack of trade logs being posted by anyone except myself.
You're brain is saying, I'm giving people I don't know rules and processes to strip retail traders on these and other forums of their capital, who normally have 1,000s of hours experience, using up to 100x less effort than the 10,000 hours normally required. Absolutely, because I can go to 1:10 (InsightR), 1:100 (PRT), 1:1,000 (10,000+ hours) in the blink of an eye and your best at 1:1 is not on my radar so why not "spread the love". If the people here prefer to talk about flooring, crossed arms, happy days to the new "Elite Traders" taking the path of least resistance, because the "veterans" with their narrative have too much invested capital to unwind doing it any other way, Newton's Third Law.
Psch 101
Delusion of grandeur is the fixed, false belief that one possesses superior qualities such as genius, fame, omnipotence, or wealth.
Narcissist - a person deriving erotic gratification from admiration of his or her own physical or mental attributes. The narcissist has a wounded ego, and the suffering they cause is a projection of the inner suffering and wounds they avoid. Their greatest fear is to be thought of as crazy, meaning weak, which is why they find pleasure making others feel this way.

It's just a marketing/solicitation post, surely?
Words like "If you need access to the fintech, or the methodology, or the prop trading, or want to become a fund manager, or as an investor within the same structure, you know where to find me" and "If you want it you have to ask to opt-in" are pretty unambiguous, I think, Tom? But I'm still not clear whether its motivation is actively promotional or just self-aggrandizement.
