    Why are you helping him? He has learned over 15 years that there is no reason to learn anything, and has advised people on this forum as much. WHILE HE WAS TRADING DEMO, and posting a journal in which he claims he is a loser. Let the guy bury himself. Stop feeding him.

    Just stop responding to him, and he will go away. I am ASHAMED I had a conversation with this guy on Skype, because he bullshitted me by trying to seem genuine, when he was just a faker piker.

    after so many years i am coming to this conclusion.

    in gambling there is win or lose.two outcomes.

    in trading there may be many outcomes and many you cannot even guess. so if it does not do what you expect just get out fast......

    More brilliant advice from you, mr. Demo man.

    So you are saying, keep those stops tight. And when your stops get hit 90% of the time and your target 10% of the time, you will win? This is not a winning strat!

    Um, no, it is not. This is you trying to tell people how fascinating you are. Personal record? You are so bloody insulting. Why are you recording it here, on a public forum? My journal was started to try to inspire people that they could make a living trading. It hasn't worked out so well because, vol, and bad decisions and plan-following.

    You? You...I don't know what to make of all this any longer. But the advice you gave to everyone else out there to not read any literature at all on trading because it didn't work for YOU, really tweaked the hell out of me. And then this journal, when you called it a losing journal, but seem to indicate winning trades in your logs? Just wow.

    So yeah, this is a journal for "your record". Sure. Uh huh. You are not even worthy of a video response.

    At the end of each month your account balance will experience one of two outcomes.....
    More Money, or Not More Money.

    What's the verdict on position sizing next week, Padman?
    Yes, No, Maybe?
