    Anybody who has the balls to come up on ET and says "I'm not a good trader and that's OK with me" is way ahead of the game.
    Take 75% of what's left, buy COST, AVGO, MSFT and never ever look at it.
    Use the 25% honing you skills on ES, NQ, CL, GC.
    Ruthlessly cut your losses. Let your winners run.
    Just do this and come back to me a year from now with a big grin on your face,

    Nope, tao, you do not get zghorner...You had the opportunity all this time, and you waffled it. zg is mine. Your percentages are shit. Time for a new angle.

    I agree, but most new traders don't expect to lose it. For them, the sky is the limit (we've all been there). Risk? What's that? It's only when you've lost it, that you understand.

    I have come to believe there can be a happy medium. If you do not agree with this, you can just fuck off, because there is a 99.99999999999999999999999999 chance you do not have a real money journal on this site. Which means your opinion means zero here.

    And yeah, I am going to get real serious about this now. You assholes all chased off Destriero, claiming he was too obtuse to read, or too aggressive or what have you..But at least he was REAL...

    There are two REAL journals on this site that I know of.

    Mine, listed here...https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/and-they-have-a-plan-live.306838/

    And hilmy83, listed here...https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/index-futures-automation.368144/

    Aside from those two? Fugheddabouddit.

    And here's some music for you, too. Pshawww

    SPY, QQQ, IWM and DIA all have high volume and liquidity in options--even in expirations that are 12 to 18 months out. This makes it possible to hold the ETFs and hedge with a collar.

  10. Hey @zghorner

    Holla at me. Let me know what you do. We getting rich over here where I am. Keep your mind open. Do not be one way thinker in the futures market. Remember to always get rich quick, not slow.

    I told you, I own this ES futures market. 2024, I will be millionaire, I sale you one. I am getting rich.

    I told you, you hanging around the wrong people man. I am getting rich. I told you this many times already and show you, but you listen to the books and teachers. You have to think for yourself.

    Pure edge pick, one. hands free algo. you got $90K, man you better get rich, and stop bullshitting with that money.

    Tell'em Beyonce. Big egos over here. I own the ES market.
