I remember FuturesTrader71 from 2005 on this site. I remember he posted a much shorter list back then. LOL The reason I remember is we exchanged a few posts about it. He seemed to be a nice guy. I vaguely remember he was into Market Profile, or was it volume profile, or maybe it was one and then the other. In any case, he struck me as a person spinning his wheels, as pretty much everyone else here, but generally trying to be helpful to others. I see he became a vendor. That was probably a wise decision on his part. Making up lists and rules for trading must surely come in handy in that role.
Its called being organized. I posted this around noon today on another topic in reference to NQ:- + + + HOD 13108.75 R1 13105.25 edit - add: today's range (so far) is equal to 96% of Friday's range. + + + Turns out no new higher high made rest of the day. Years ago I wouldn't have had a clue. I wasn't lazy. I just wasn't organized ... as much as I needed to be.
Jesus, you’re a fish. It’s called being organized? Of course it is. Organized as a vendor. I’m not knocking the guy. He has to eat too and support his family. If you want to be a shill, go right ahead.
I was relaxing. That’s why I logged on, to relax and for amusement. Now I’m back from a workout and relaxing again. I haven’t had many evenings to myself the last month so I’m enjoying it. Don’t think your reply with FT71’s monologue wasn’t appreciated. The unintentional humor wasn’t lost on me. As for being a fish, well there’s no shame in that. Everyone starts out as one. You have yet to outgrow being impressed by a vendor selling market commentary. That makes you a fish. Or maybe fresh bait is more accurate. As for being a shill, I didn’t say you are one. I said if you want to be a shill, go ahead. That is your choice. Being a fish and being a shill are often connected. It’s not unusual for people who clearly can’t tell shit from Shinola to make recommendations to others. I especially enjoy people saying so and so seller of trading services is “the real deal.” Even better if they say it with authority. The odor of fish permeates through the screen.
Its gets better Now I'm not just a fish and shill (which no doubt is what you are saying) I am also an authority. Sorry implied authority. You'll confirm that with your next post ... even though in one of my prior to someone else I said "IMO he knows his stuff". Not is, not implied, just an opinion to agree or disagree with. Hit the gym more, your still a little soft and thin-skinned.
Good Morning savoir, Great comment. FuturesTrader71, is no different then all the other Trading Vendor/Salesman out there, he is simply: 1. Selling his years of trading experience for a customer cost to build his wealth, but no 3rd party concrete evidence of his own profitability the past X years. Anybody can make up trading rules. That is easy. The BEST and ONLY trading advice is proof of making money.
SimpleMeLike, it’s always interesting to hear what happened to some of the old posters on this site. Maybe in 15 years I will hear about you as a trading legend selling subscriptions to your chat room. Glad you enjoyed my comment.
