I'd prefer to brag about something big, like my enormous
Why are folks on here railing on Padu? What difference does it make if he is showing some strategies on a sim? Just add 2 ticks and see if price makes it. One for entry and one for exit. For instance, to capture 4 ticks in the ES you generally got to have a total of a 6 tick move. 1 additional tick for entry and 1 for the exit. So, just watch any sim trade he makes and see if price would have given him the shown entry and exit, or not.
Why are people railing on him about trading small account? If what he shows is true in a small account then it generally will work in a larger account. Trading a small account is his business only and not for any of us to rail about.
He is trying to show how he trades some of brooks strategies. Does it matter if he does it on a sim or on a small account? Don’t be lazy. Test out what he says in your own damn account or your own SIM account! LOL
I kinda of think the real issue is brook hate. If padu were showing something else would they rail on him?
I will say this; most traders are too damn lazy and undisciplined to study and practice Brooks ideas and adapt themselves. It takes years to learn it and apply it. They will try it 6 months and declare it doesn't work. Or two or three years and declare it is BS. It takes way longer to really understand and apply what he teaches, coupled with adapting it to ones own personality and preferences. I think it was in 2010 I bought his first book Reading Price Charts Bar by Bar..The Technical Analysis of Price Action for The
SERIOUS Trader (caps and bold mine).
The concepts were so foreign to me and I remember laughing out loud at what appeared, at that time to me, to be double talk and nonsense. BUT I had a gut feeling that Brooks was the real deal even if I could not understand, at the time, what he was talking about. So, I was intrigued enough that when his trilogy came out I bought the first book and wrote the date inside. November 27, 2011. So my journey begins. Later I bought his other two books of the trilogy. I also bought his first video course and every upgrade to it. In addition, I bought the Best Trades Course. On top of that I bought the trilogy in digital form so I wouldn’t have to lug the heavy hardbacks with me when I travel internationally on flights. So I have been studying and applying and adapting Brooks concepts since 2010.
Therefore, anyone that tells me his concepts are BS I know they never endured to wade through it. They just too lazy, undisciplined, or unable cognitively to understand and apply the concepts or have psychological problems in trading.
There is no treatise ANYWHERE on planet earth that I am aware of that so completely and thoroughly deals with PA as Brooks does. His works are
“the” par excellence of PA teaching and training, IMO.
Padu has clearly indicated he is still learning from Brooks and is still learning how to apply Brooks concepts. So, why don’t you guys back off and let him show his experiences in learning and trading without such constant railing and cutting down and provoking him even with racial implications. You guys might even learn something useful!
There I said my peace.
I can deal with the humor that some throw out there and laugh along with you but the railing is uncalled for. Leave the man in peace.
PS here we are in 2021 and I am
STILL learning from Brooks and learning how to apply his techniques in ways that fit my personality and preferences for trading. Count the years. 2010 to 2021.
