Why don't we just hang this thread up now... I don't see this going anywhere, and my mailbox is filling up with notices of thread updates. RoughTrader
Not answered by the OP. Not answerd by OP. Not answered by OP. Not answered by OP Not answered by OP. Not answered by OP. Not answered by OP. Not ackowledged by the OP. Not answered by OP. Not answered by OP. Not answered by OP. ======================= I just want to point out, none of these questions were answerd by the OP, that could be critical in helping others, and also explain to us what type of strategy the OP was trading and give clearer insight as to the lead of the failure of the OP. I guess I'm still one who doesn't know anything and doesn't try to learn from others on ET. Heh, I guess my strive to gain the truth and objectivity are failures on my part. I guess when i look for the truth, I should accept only what I'm told, or supposed to believe. This thread started out great, but when I noticed questions being asked were not being acknowledged I point it out, and I'm an asshole for it. Oh well, sorry for trying to help out ET. I'll accept the fact that I'm wrong for trying to help out the forum and look for the truth, because what do I know, I'm a 19 year old that doesn't know anything So I will continue what I was doing and let all the others continue on with this wonderful thread full of unexplained and unanswered questions by several parties. But hey, I have to live up to my expectations, and settle for no less ==================== I still ask that any information on the above threads that can be learned from the OP would be mighty helpful, as I'm still interested in learning from this thread, only if the truth is told. Learn something new on ET every day
Sorry RoughTrader, still searching for the answers to the above threads and awaiting a reply by the OP "Broken Dreams" as to the journey of his blowup. Hopefully the OP will reply and then we can be done with this.
Quite true, Spydertrader. It's so sad that some trolls have to come in here, start childish fights with other posters for no reason, and simply ruin threads for their own pleasure. It was never my intention to have this thread become any kind of piss-fest. A personal and very humble story was told. I was getting nothing out of it, certainly nothing monetary nor feelings of pride. It was actually a bit difficult because it's such a humbling story to admit to. I don't know why anyone would share it, but I had no ego and chose to share it anyway because I thought the knowledge might benefit a few. Anyway, everything's fine until the appearance of the trolls. It's just so sad that they have to start their usual shit and ruin it for everyone, even in well-intentioned threads such as this. It makes you wish this thread was private because they don't deserve to receive any information in the first place. It's too bad they can't take the hint.
If anyone believes the above BS. I mean seriously believes it, I will write a 10 paragraph report as why you should not, and why you should not feel bad for the OP, and why he repeatedly puts others down to cover up for his failure, yet we do not know why the OP failed, and for all we know, he just got greedy like the same people on ET laugh at for blowing it all in a few days. That is what I'm considering. I just want to set the record straight. I'm here to learn. The OP insists on calling me a troll, which is funny, because that is the first time I have ever been called a troll on any internet forum .... ever. Yet the only thing I want is the truth as to why the OP blew out his account. Anyone get the truth as to what led to the OP's blow out, then please respond to this thread, if not, then if you take the OP seriously, I just hope you realize those same people you joke on who make millions, only to put on massive positions and lose it all in a few days, could VERY WELL be on the same exact lines as this guy you are feeling bad for. This thread is pointless, I only wish I knew the OP was going to run away from questions from several et member sooner. The OP lost all credibility because he will not tell ET the truth. But if you feel bad for him, just remember, the same guys you laugh at.... right on par with this guy. It's absolutely hilarious why I wasted my time here to think about it. I still ask that if anyone can get the abov quotes I have from the OP to do so. If the OP can't tell us why he really blew out his account, then for all i'm concerned, he is just a failed trader like the other 95% who just lasted a bit longer on luck, or who got greedy and cocky and blew it all. Why??? because that is all I can assume because the OP ran away from my questions and has resorted to callimg me a troll, again a new one on me. When you get used to reading posts of failure, this guy..... well, not far off, avoiding questions, kinda like TruthSeeker in another thread. It's kinda funny. The only good material in this thread and the only truthful material. The guy blew up because he got greedy and blew it all, or he didn't have a strategy that was going to survive a change in market, and now he looks for us to feel bad for him. OK, we are done with that. If your still at age 30, you can still change your life. That's about it. Oh yeah, we learned that our OP has run away from the markets, because he fears something. He fears answering any question about his trading strategy. You don't believe me? I DARE and CHALLENGE any member on ET to ask the OP any quoted question I have above on this page that the OP has not answered. Anyone up to the challenge, because i personally want to learn, and this thread is a total waste, so hopefully someone can make this thread honest again and get the real reason why the OP blew his account. Because feeling sorry for the guy now is pointless because he is just another fialure who got lucky in my eye's until he tells us the real reason why he blew up. Anyone got a problem with my search for the real truth? Too bad, I don't care. lol, I want to learn from this thread, and if you do too, you will read what I just typed above and realize that it is true. I want to know why the OP blew his account, how do you make consistent money in trading and lose it all, and have to get a job? It's obvious failure. Now I want to know why. Was it because he got frustrated and put on massive size? Was it because he didn't have a strategy to begin with? Was it because of luck *it happens*. Was it because he didn't really like the markets and just wanted to make some quick cash? I bet if he was one of the above cases, you wouldn't feel so bad, but, I guess I'm going to have to point all this out in the search for truth. So please, someone find out the truth, as I can't take anything said here on this thread seriously anymore because the OP is a faker and lier until he tells the truth. But the most hilarious thing of all, is the OP has me blocked, so he can't see any of this so he can safely call me a troll from behind his ignore button all he wants with every reply here. So I'm expecting that to come, so lets bring on the people that love to call others idiots and stupid for wanting the truth. I expect the next post to be one, then the OP will reply saying I'm a troll, and then thus will continue yet ET will not have the truth. I already know what is going to happen. I just wish I had this accuracy in the markets, it's more like 60% but I have been 100% right about this thread so far, and maybe only 5% will realize that I'm correct. It's funny EDIT: Btw... -==-=-=-=-----------=-=-========-=- We learned that Heart Breaker lost his money because he blew his account because he took too much risk and got lucky in the beginning. That was great. On par with TruthSeeker, except he is a good gambler and will take awhilt to blow it all... hmmm, just like the OP. I'm noticing a bullish trend on this one, lets see how long it will sustain the movement ----------------------------- And to think, this thread is screwed up, JUST BECAUSE the OP refuses to answer questions about his trading strategy. Now that is ironic eh? Makes you wonder if he even had a trading strategy to begin with.... Great thread this turned out to be, more like a huge disappointement to me, I wanted to learn something and instead get a story with someone who wants to complain to us about blowing it from greed or not being a real trader in the first place. Good stuff.
I appreciated your posts. Most ET members who give up trading slink away ... I would probably would myself. ET is a mix - from teenage old know-it-alls, to genuine large volume traders, you happened to get a bit unlucky on this thread.
I'm done with this thread. ET has been lied to by the OP, and no one really wants to know why the OP failed, and he refuses to answer our questions about his real reason for failure. I'm an asshole for wanting to learn from this experience, yet anyone with a brain can see that the OP is really looking for handholding and blew his account because of greed. I personally am shocked at the stuff I have seen on this thread by several ET members, thought they were smarter than that. Owell, I guess everyone can feel sorry for someone who gets greedy and blows it all in the end. I just want everyone here who jokes on the traders who blow several million in a single day for adding to losers, to know you are feeling sorry for the equivalent right here until the truth be told. Truth.... there is none in this thread, it's only a failed person, who wasn't really a trader, just someone who got lucky for a few years and couldn't adapt.
This is a real sad story but I don't see why everyone is being pissed off of JMowery1987 !! someone comes here and says that he hangs it up, I certainly do believe him but whats the goal of the story ? to warn others or just to cry some tears and get some sympathy ? ok, I do sympathize you, truly I do but we will be very much thankful to you if you tell us why you blow up ? atleast someone will learn from your mistakes. We all enjoy ET and this is not war or whatever, we just express ourselves. Best Regards, afarouk
Now you know the meaning of the axiom "Curiosity killed the cat" Anyways, the story by the thread starter was interesting... I'll share it with my other trading friends to make sure we think over our strategies more carefully etc etc. The ironic thing is that I still think I'll be better off in 5 years than now. Even though the odds etc seem to be against us. Just like some story about 50 paratroopers on a plane ready to jump into enemy territory."Only 5 of you are going to make it". And everyone thinks "I feel sorry for the other guy"...
afarouk,, read carefully the responses to jmowery1987. perhaps you will understand. it is an art to to ask questions.
