the minute this kid said he was going to run 5 grand into 1 mill in 1 year i knew he was doomed. lets face it in the beginning we all had pipe dreams. after trading for awhile the market humbles you and you settle for making a nice living. reading alphies posts and gaining some insite into his attitude i don't think he has the tenacity or stubborness to make it through the learning curve.
Since we are being blunt and all Tampa -- I just got done reading some of that ridiculous "short skirt" thread and YOU ARE A MESS! How somebody like you can get it in their head that you are somehow qualified to be giving this kid advice is beyond me...
Aphe, the best advice I've seen on this thread is to stop posting. You've got a lot of attention because of the build-up, but just know it's because we all want to see how quickly you run through that first $5k. On second thought...keep posting...your misery is funny. p.s. if there's not another $5k to back it up, it's time to look into a prop shop...you need real training.
Dustin, HE has traded a stock, futures, an ETF (and an option?) ...all this with only FIVE TRADES!! OH MY GOD! LOL! ok, i'm gonna stop before i pull a hernia LOLOL
My Dearest Commisso Perhaps you might consider rereading the thread - Most of what you will find there is parody.
That definitely puts things in perspective!!! I got that La Choy commercial in my head "Ancient Chinese Secret". Funny stuff.
Nitro, You really gotta get more sleep and stop watching those martial arts movie marathons the night before trading. I've never imagined myself "a samurai standing at arms length face to face with another samurai." I'm more concerned with pressing the right button on the keyboard. Do you actually have that picture in your mind before taking a trade or are you just trying to make trading seem like an epic experience?
