What exactly is the professional trading community? I thought ET was it! You mean there is somewhere else where actual, real traders hang out?
This entirely kindly intentioned thread confounded me a little: I didn't know how (or even whether) it was appropriate to reply.
Many thanks to the posters of the kind comments above.
Regarding all the unkind comments (by no means limited to this thread), although I don't usually dignify such nonsense with any response at all, I will this time: it's beyond ridiculous that a small handful of people very repeatedly accuse me, in thread after thread after thread, of being NoDoji, a TopStepTrader employee, one of the daughters of Al Brooks, Al Brooks himself, or even a man called "Alex".
It's pure trolling - and ironic, too: anonymous internet personas themselves, so repeatedly alleging (or just stating, as if it were simply factual) that I'm deliberately deceiving people here about my identity.
It's relentless, it's unwarranted, it's untruthful, it's entirely unprovoked, and it's downright malicious, too: these comments are designed solely to impugn my integrity in public. Clearly they serve no other purpose at all. That's just plain nasty.
I've done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to deserve, to invite or to justify these endless accusations of deception.
There's no reason, by any normal standards of decency, why anyone should continue indefinitely to tolerate such persistent, unprovoked malice.
Having Asperger's syndrome myself, I'm admittedly really bad at trying to envisage other people's potential reactions, but I imagine (and am assured by many people here) that almost everyone would eventually feel exactly the same way, when so continually falsely accused of lying and deceiving people, wouldn't they?
Together with the moderators' express refusal to do anything about this so-persistent, malicious trolling - which would be so easy to remedy - the whole thing, naturally enough, alienates me from posting here.
It's not just about me, obviously (which is why it was worth mentioning at all, for once): there's a much broader, much more significant issue here. At a time when both trading and trading-forum participation generally are seeing such an increase, this forum clearly has a serious member retention problem. No surprise there: it's glaringly obvious which very small group of persistently hostile members the moderation policies choose to retain and protect, at the expense of inexorably losing a far larger turnover of other contributors. That's how ET is run, and clearly there's nothing that I or any other individual member can do about it but choose to stop posting here - as, indeed, so many do.
The forum is knowingly harbouring and protecting malicious trolls while effectively driving away their victims.
In my opinion that's a real problem, and apparently it's one that nobody's willing even to try to deal with.
100 percent correct.
And the negatives just banter, no 1 has made a personal attack against Xela.
All I've said is " not many woman trade, but the ones that do are mostly profitable"
And woman aren't wired in general to work themselves to death, to become billionaires to impress, they prefer to spend it quite wisely I think, why be a billionaire, but not spend it ??
Spend it wisely? You obviously don’t know my wife!!
Well, blowing it is fine, dying with anything more than $5 in your bank account is a waste of money, so saying men are better traders are there are richer men is stupid, as there stupid for not spending it while they can.
Hence, Pro woman, hence not a troll, thanks!!!
Bone is not only correct in what he says but is paying for your ability to post dumb shit in response...jeez.
