Quote from Magna:
If you re-read my posts on this thread I didn't once suggest your plays today were lucky, so you must be referring to some other "Mr. 1000 post moderator". What I was alluding to is the culture at ET wherein certain members like to post their wins but somehow, conveniently, ignore their losses. For instance, you posted your wins on the Americanization of Johnny Rotten thread, but never a loss. And in the last few days you posted a big win on the Consumer Confidence drop on 7/29, and then the 10-pt win on the drop this morning. You only belatedly posted a 4 pt loss (which later got amended to 1.5 pts) after I mentioned your uncanny ability to always end up on the right side of large moves. As you said about yourself from a post in the Americanization of Johnny Rotten thread:
And as to taking people's money........sorry, you didn't take any of mine. But please understand I'm not questioning the veracity of your trades, so posting a P&L is irrelevant. Anyone can have a good trade and post a P&L to "prove" it. All I'm talking about is people who, by their posts, seemingly never have a losing trade.
