The OP always likes to take shots at day traders. It's his MO. In the future he should probably get articles though that aren't idiotic.
Damn. Just noticed that. Good call. Makes sense that a nonsensical story is from some nonsensical site.
Dude. You go out of your way to say people can't make money day trading. You have done it for years. It's all over ET. Here you start a thread about your whining buddy Altucher bitching because he stopped making money day trading. http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index...e-truth-about-the-market.287613/#post-4047938 You are all over this thread telling everyone day trading can't be done: http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index.php?threads/is-day-trading-worth-it.275680/page-189#post-4127424 marketsurfer http://www.jamesaltucher.com/2010/11/8-reasons-not-to-daytrade/ 8 reasons not to daytrade Now you post this lame ass article from some joke of a publication that tries unsuccessfully to take a shot at day traders. Surf, it's beyond obvious you don't like day traders. You most likely failed at it and are now on some crusade against those who do well with it. Don't play this 'Who me ? " bs again. I barely did any work and found a few glaring examples of your anti day trading crap.
Please answer some questions. Prove me wrong. Seriously. You can shut me up. Why did you post this article? What is the purpose of posting an article about a day trader who lost roughly 1500 dollars ? What are your thoughts about the information in it? It says the trader lost money in the energy markets because volatility picked up in August. The fact is volatility dropped in August in the energy markets. Do you feel the guy who wrote this knew what he was talking about ?
