    Took a look at the overview video on collective2. It said the trades on collective2 are hypothetical. What good is that gonna prove!

    I don't manage anyone's money but my own, nor do I make grandiose claims about my trading (like many PATs do), so I have no reason to provide my record. Again, the burden of proof is on you and your chart-reading friends. I've already shown that your emperor (Al Brooks) has no clothes. So someone else needs to show their accounts, yachts, etc.

    There are plenty of non-chart readers (Thorp, Renaissance, Dalio, etc.) with proven track records. And while systematic trend-following is much harder than it used to be, there have been trend-followers with market-beating performance for decades as well.

    Instead of posting every random thought of yours, just show me the price action traders' money...

    Proof bartering and haggling can still earn you a nice bed of the good ol' bills, one way or the other!

    REALLY nasty with the traditional horny GF..

    Just like I figure. Nothing has worked for you has it?

    Showing you records wouldn't do an ounce of good. Your tunnel vision is stuck.

    You never saw it. The energy in your brain never captured it did it? Read Mark Douglas. You may understand.

    If you gonna complain about others you need to walk the talk and show your own proof or you have no credibility. You probally have no proof. But i could be wrong. I have before.

    As far as mr brooks goes, like you, i don't think he trades other peoples money so given your reasoning he had nor had any reason to show anything. He has no burden of proof. As a matter of fact given your reasoning every single poster that posts any strategy on ET must show proof. Where is your proof?

    You really have a deep disgust for Price Action. You probally tried it and could not figure it out. So you wrote it off.

    Did you actually read anything I wrote? I'd suggest working on reading comp for a while before mastering the failed art of PAT. Here's a start:
