    get in line honey,i'm a busy mang




    Some balls are held for charity
    And some for fancy dress
    But when they're held for pleasure
    They're the balls that I like best
    My balls are always bouncing
    To the left and to the right
    It's my belief that MY big balls
    Should be held every night

    :D

  6. I'll be the first to admit that one of the reasons I came here was probably for the attention. It is great to have people respond to your posts and receive attention from so many people all over the place.

    Getting attention isn't going to get you anywhere unless you're funny and can get a job as a comedian. If you want to really make money from the market, then you'll shut up, buckle down and actually put the effort in.

    I have resigned in trying to make money from the market while finishing up classes. There are a lot of good people on ET and I enjoy the different personalities.

    So if you want to make money from the market, you should be spending 99.999% of your time reading, digging, learning, relearning, testing, backtesting, forward testing, papertrading, trading and then do the cycle many times over and over before you even have a chance at pulling any money from the market.

    I made that mistake when I first came here and I have since quit blowing sunshine up my own ass. You should really do the same. You're a cool guy but you are starved for attention.

    In the end, we are all motivated to do the things that bring us the most happiness. Some people do it through money -- other people do it by demanding the attention of others. You can't be both as a trader.

    Good luck to you.

  7. GG is a fellow trader and deserves respect!

    To me he seems to be nailing down an important aspect of trading and that is ego.

    Surely having a balanced ego in proper perspective is a key to trading successfully.

  8. aphexcoil: Not so sure I agree with that, aphexcoil, writing too is a large part of ET, and I am sure others besides myself post for the stress relief it brings - not just for "attention."

    If it's all about getting attention then we got us 1000s of attention whores here.

    LMAO...
