I believe if he is a real person-- you are wrong. He is pulling out $ 5k each month... not for the fun of it... to take care of expenses! If he had a real job that paid all the bills and then some-- he wouldn't be extracting these funds. This is a BIG problem. With this in mind-- he absolutely does have to face the hard realities and do what needs to be done for long term success. Do you not agree based on the above? If not-- explain to me in detail how my logic is in error. I don't think you can.
I have psychological proof. He has been posting a losing journal for a year now. Why would a fake persona do that? Also, why would a fake persona withdraw amounts for living? By the way I try to average his last 4 weeks to see a trend. He was up 1.6K not including this (not yet posted) week. Although that is not enough for him to live on, but at least slightly up... P.S.: If you are convinced he is fake, why are you arguing about a nonexisting person?
Maybe he will have to pull his kids out of private school but he isnt going to be homeless. He hasnt posted this week, either he is away from home, or his account has fallen below 100K and he has given up on this journal, at least for now.
Yes, it was a horrible week, the account is below 100K and I will keep off posting for while. The psychological damage is enormous.
You still have enough capital to make a come back. Now might be a good time to pull the handle on the ejector seat. Then take some time to get your head straight and figure out what next. Put together a strategy, then test it with small $ to see how if performs.
As expected-- a complete refusal to address my posts. As is always... Something amiss here... without a doubt. Wake up people... do not be so naive.
As I said Pekelo-- a reason could easily be to promote ET. Think outside the box on this... I'm done with Neke... he has helped prove my point with his most recent post.
Neke, Sorry to hear about your loss If possible try and take a break from trading for the rest of year (and how ever long after that you need). It will definitely clear your head. And try not to be too hard on yourself. You are an absolute legend for keeping this journal (and your trading) going through 3 years of losses, most people cant even do 3 weeks of losing.
Neke's problem is unwillingness to accept reality. He is losing money almost every week and refuses to take a break and stop the bleeding .As a minimum he should at least switch to the paper trading account for a while. I wish him all the best but this is not going to end well.
Actually no, if he was fake and just here to promote ET, then he wouldn't be taking a break from posting anymore. Neke - don't let breaking the 100K barrier get you too down. If you didn't include the withdrawals, I assume your account would still be over 100K.
