    it is almost impossible... yes....

    almost, i say, almost, because i have, done it.

    trading is no secret: buy low sell high.

    Whoever said, it could not be done is, well, just, plain wrong.

    Markets are rational and follow, well, established, well known, well publicized, laws of market dynamics.

    and i have always said that 100%-win rate is possible.

    no one has ever done it or even tried to.

    Brooks said it is probability and you cannot have 100% probability.

    WRONG AGAIN

    people, who say it cannot be done, are just losers who gave up, who did not work hard and did not believe hard enough. And just, did not observe the market, with a dispassionate eye.

    trillions of usd cannot be thrown into a universe, that is uncertain, on a whim and a prayer: that very thought, i had always found, is baloney at worst, and ridiculous, at best.

    you, guys [!], are about to witness, what the world, has never seen before. Ever.

    Do not fasten your seat belts, because this is going to be the most boring ride, ever.

    good trading and good golf, is boring, but perfect trading, is perplexingly boring and, to some, profoundly irritating

    I said serious conversation and you show up with a book recommendation. WTF?? LMAO

    Anyway, what's up with your attitude? As someone already mentioned above, just because you're a losing trader, don't pretend this place is only full of losers.

  8. Why is everyone trying to point that I am a loser?

    I don't do day trading, I don't gamble.

    The only thing I do is to sell options. 30 to 45DTE.
    Very conservative OTM options.
    There's a very low probability to be a loser doing that. I am not going to be a millionaire anytime soon but I won't be a loser either.

    I know you guys need something to attack me with, mainly because you need to project your frustration from day trading at someone. But the narrative about being a loser is not going to work with me.

  10. I did already. I recorded a video a while ago and showed my account on IBKR. To another wanker like you.

    It showed at the time that I was making around 1200 a month by average. The report showed balances over a year. I have improved that amount a little bit now.

    That's why I asked for you degenerates to show a proof or your day trading, because it is easy to do.

    It wasn't very impressive so I didn't have any replies to it.

    The only reason why you guys don't do it is simply because you are full of shit.
