Tribute to Brooks

[SPX Options Trader]

so you're the genius and brooks is a cork sucker

Maybe, possibly, perhaps, so. You never know. Keep an open, neutral, mind.

Don't....Assume or make the correlation...Just because someone, a trader, Writes a book that they are so officially a genius, rich and successful and talented.
There are plenty of people who write books who are essentially no talent hacks.

ia m testing his concepts ....not assuming anything

Maybe, possibly, perhaps, so.

and what difference that makes to anyone....brooks is sharing his ideas

This Conversation is going in complete Circles.
People write books, and/or produce courses, to get rich. That's the bottom line. Agenda.
There is no validity to the truth of their content, though.

If someone had the formula for market riches...why the Fduck would they sell it away?
What you bought, what you are studying...is basically toilet paper.

If someone had the formula for market riches.

it is not a formula he is offering.

he clearly says it is difficult and it is not a get rich scheme

 

[Laissez Faire]

i am NOT.

I was not adressing you, dear Padu.

i am saying that brooks works if you apply it correctly

You know that, don't you...

 

[padutrader]

he also says swing not scalp

but i could never get into a trend at the right place....

and so i would get whipsawed and stopped out just where the corrective move was ending.

 

[padutrader]

I was not adressing you, dear Padu.

yes
i realized that a bit late....

 

[padutrader]

if you cannot determine the trend then you will never be consistent.........this may sound silly and fickle but it is true.

just knowing the trend however is not enough....you need to be able to enter early enough to really milk it for all it is worth.

trading is not complicated but it is not easy

i started this journal to record my trades not read bull shit

Good Morning padutrader,

Much respect to your brother for continuing your journey. You have helped me with concepts in the past and I appreciate it. I hope it you make alot of money soon man.

I would just say one thing to you buddy, try get some advice from others on the forum. There could be 1 or 2 things you doing wrong that could turn you profitable.

There is alot of money being made in these markets, and its hard doing it alone.
