The more knowledgeable posters @destriero @sle and lots of others who do not spoon feed everyone with "amazing trading strategy" but point to real guides to study and develop your own is what makes this forum worth visiting with respect to Baron as well. So what dest harps when people post unrealistic fills, and asks to at least trade not hypothesis trade a best case scenario every time.
ET would be a less interesting place without @destriero Had I seen the vote in time, it would have been another "Nay!"
Missed this poll too. Another vote for "Nay". Frankly this forum is filled with Trump University graduates. If not for few good posters, there is no reason to visit this forum.
des, I don't log in a lot, but I enjoy your posts. I spent my career on the CBOT and CBOE and even on the busiest days, we busted balls all day long. You would have fit in perfectly down there man. Don't leave.
Reading at the moment : What made, our language, different from animals - gossip and small talks on relationships. What made us to succeed - Cooperation. Found both in this forum. Removing those core elements, while, they are brought here, by each individual in his own ways, that would be, the beggining of the end (?)
i got an email this was the top thread so that's why i'm here. i have destro on block cause he has been a total ass to me as well as others for no reason other than he thought someone might challenge his turf as a real trader. sad because there are very few real traders and most all of the ones i know get along and give each other tid bits of info to help each other. but this ass just blasted away without ever considering that the total options he has traded in his lifetime would not fill a thimble compared to the ocean of options that others here have traded. yea this poll only illustrates just how many people have his sorry ass on block sadly and what an amateur option trader he really is.
I have not had a problem with destriero's posts, and I enjoy having him here so this isn't meant as a comment on him or your experience with him. There are all sorts of cross-skirmishes here at ET apparently and I'm involved in more than my share of my own. I do give him credit for being a real trader, however, and I do not doubt he makes serious coin trading options. But I do agree with you 100% on the above quoted sentiment. I have been fortunate to come across a few - very, very few consistently profitable traders in real life, at least one of whom's name (real name not an ET nic) would be immediately recognized by many ET'ers as certifiably real. Each has been extremely generous with me.
lol I personally traded >85K contracts in May alone. I had scammer MarkBrown on block until this week.
