  1. You are weclcome .My pleasure

    The narcissistic personality trait describes trading EDUCATOR individuals that believe they are special (SUPERIOR TO TRADERS), have a sense of entitlement (FEE FOR SNAKE OIL), require excessive admiration (REGULAR COMPLIMENTS), lack empathy (DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE TRADER OR THEIR SUCCESS), are interpersonally exploitive (WILL PLAY A GAME TO WIN AT ANY COST IN DISCUSSIONS), and are arrogant and haughty. As defined by one of its most frequently used measures, the Narcissistic Personality Inventory:

  2. Why do you seem angry with trading educators?

    If not for them, many people would have wasted a lot of time mis-understanding trading books for instance. Instead traders get the chance of having the "readings" done for them, no?

  5. trading educators are just people, so I suppose scammers, unkind people also become trading educators. Howevern did you not learn something from their courses?

  6. No .Nothing useful.

    Infact the buggers wanted to sell you their education / courses , but they hid a lot of truth away from the customer , the reason why they failed and the main causes of their failure at trading .Everything about their pitch was lies.Little information is dangerous. , which is all they sold.

  7. the truth you are talking about are :
    - the reason they failed and the causes of their failure at trading?

    Would it not be normal that they'd rather not talk about this sensitive subject?
    I mean failing is not something most people handle well.

  8. There is definitely something wrong with Tradereducationbuyer--- I suggest to everyone to just place the alias on ignore. It will go away once no one pays attention to it. thanks, Hamp

  9. I figured it out , as one the scammers squealed , that was sveral years later. .He was failing due to his emotions , stress , reactive pattern losses , self sabotage and other psychology.What he is selling , technically , is also useless .

    It is stuff available from other forums for free.Selling useless knowledge , information and education , that is rehashed and renamed.

    It will cause the buyer more harm in the long run , in time cost , health /stress and money .

  10. This is a way to approach things.
    However, I am not into ostracising people. So I will allow myself to continue discussing with TraderEducationBuyer to fully understand his/her experience.
