Most traders are self delusional.

Most traders are loosers.

Enough said.

OK, let's go with the idea that no one makes money trading, it's a total waste of time, all of us are better off doing something else right now because failure is inevitable.

Ya got me... I bit. Now can I ask all of the naysayers a question? Why the hell are we even here in the first place? More directly, why are YOU here?

If trading, TA, etc is pure folly, how stupid are you to keep coming into this forum to make 100s or 1,000s of posts about nothing? What drives you to haunt a forum about trading and traders when you fully believe it's all folly? If you have nothing of value to share, why malinger onward and pollute the airwaves?

Now that, my friends, is the absolute epitome of narcissism.

Eh-um..... that flew over your head. If they show a p&l and try and sell IMO they have an agenda. Traders make money and iam one of them. What drives you to attack a post when you don't understand it. Forest gump"Stupid is as stupid posts SIR" Now go lose more money

What exactly is a looser?

 

[SDticks]

A person that is loose, or a person that can't spell loser.

Quote from mschey:

What exactly is a looser?

A loser is someone who comes on Elite and makes absurd generalizations about traders because either he/she has never seen or met successful traders, or because he/she is jealous and envious of those who can do what he/she cannot and those who have what he/she does not.

To those who think all traders are liars:
For every poster on Elite Trader trader who makes a successful living out of the market there are at least 100 con men trying to peddle their wares and another 100 idiots who are just too stupid to ever succeed at anything in life, least of all trading. However, you seem to make the assumption that because most people who post on elite are either scammers or morons, markets are therefore massively efficient.

Your thread title should be "Why are most Elite Trader posters LIARS?", to which I would answer: becuase they're either con men or idiots who are prey for the con men. What possible benefit would any successful trader gain from sharing valuable insight with such a community?
