    There was a YouTuber about 2 years ago trading 20-100 lots in his demo account, then he traded live with ninjatrader with $10k. It seemed his performance was consistent but later he stopped trading and went for private fee only tutoring, with Al Brooks’s bar counting.

    Not sure if this is algo or manual, but why the hell would you scale in every few seconds with such small order size as in this pic? Also if you look at the first two entries, you would see they have identical time stamps and I don't think they were merely split up in the order queue. Maybe if you were trading a few hundred lots at a time, but this just makes no sense to me.

    There are only two times during the day yesterday that the price was near or at 4180.00 at 36:38 past the hour... The 9 AM hour and the 1 PM hour CT.

    Extrapolating that into his time stamp of 13:36:38 for the dump at 4180.00, he would be 4 hours ahead of Chicago at the 9 AM hour, which puts him in the middle of the Atlantic ocean, and the price really isn't there anyways...

    So that leads to the conclusion that his time stamps are in fact Central time, which jives with where the market was at that time. There's just one problem...

    There's about 7-8 pages like that, of that time give or take a second, and they all look like that...single-digit lots with a few double-digit lots tossed in. There is no where close to 13000+ lots going through across those 6-7 pages in that timeframe. Plus, as you can see, the prices starts showing stamps a couple of ticks outside 4180.00 during and around the .38 mark , like so...

    Therefore we can conclude that Mr. Skillz is running on sim.

    End of line.

    I'm confused. @schizo was analyzing the posts made by @MarkBrown when he showed his apparent entries, but the poll was for trades from another source.

    I sure would love to see Mark Brown go into a bit more detail though.
