Quote from domestic:

don't you think there is some basis to distrust her "motives" based on the solicitation for payment "to avoid the waiting list"..

how can you overlook that point? i do agree a person should not be abused for posting her strategies; just after reading that post i must pause and scratch my head.

Frankly, I don't see anything wrong with her posting that response.

Neither you (nor anyone else) need to pay her for her services if you don't need them, or put yourself on her waiting list, for the same reason.

But if someone does need help it sounds like she has a sound strategy for trading the e-minis and making some consistent coin... which is much more difficult than most people realize.

Or they can take the route of putting in the "ass in the seat" time so that they can develop a consistent trading methodology for the e-mini's ... and if they choose that route, I'll see'm in 3 to 5 years hence, if then.

The only thing I would like to see is that she post blotters confirming the size that she is trading, that would really seal the deal for me. Earning the right to trade 10 (or more) cars on the ES is nothing to sneeze at

Will post a screen shot of my account next trade to confirm the size, no problem

how come you only trade 13 contracts when you said you've been trading for 3 years and this method makes you $1000 a day?

And you've only been posting a blog for half a year :eek:

It takes time to build an account up. It doesn't start out making $1000 a day ...

And you've only been posting a blog for half a year :eek:

The length of time that Becky has been running a blog is not relevant to this conversation.

It takes more than you think to build an account besides I kinda spend some big bucks every now and then.

Posting a blog for half a year has nothing to do with how long I've been trading!

Thankyou for the heads up...

I am little intrigued...your initial statement was that you go +-4 points to enter...fair enough....then yesterday it was 3or 4 points to enter...but today we have an opening of 89.00 and your entry point is going to be 94.75 ....5 3/4 points from opening....

Simple question....why the difference?

Correction...my mistake should read 89.50 for 51/4 point difference.

It's not a fixed number depends on the setup but it averages about 4 some times 3 some times 5.
