Tbh mick... I thought about leaving it for good after last night, but you are 100% right. I mean to be completely honest for real, i get zero out of this thread, ES is not my game of choice. I mean that doesn't mean I won't jump in and play with a contract or two... but I like stocks. Right or wrong. Ya gotta stick with whatcha know. That said... I do like the posters here... your kangaroo ass included. (Times 2.) NQ, Speedo, Spy, Overnight... the whole cast... and even B1.... but his latest round of denial, not only with regards to the ES and all his FOOL calls, but more importantly his denial of the severity of this sh*t. I mean ask yourself... if this was as benign as the flu, why in the f*ck is Ford making respirators? Color me simple and uninformed, I guess I am.... but I have some fucking common sense. Why are emergency rooms filled with dying patients? I have no idea.... why is the U.S. Navy positioning hospital ships outside NYC? The list of these things goes on and on. Again, color me stupid, but I sure as fuck don't remember this from last year's flu season. And with regards to the markets... if what dumbshit says is true.... there is no f'ing way we'd have a day like today. Now this is an area where I've seen a thing or two over the years. Market behavior.This chop is a bad sign. There are no true buyers. Not index wide at least. His BS is dangerous. There are people out there right now that will search google for answers regarding their retirements. Heaven forbid this thread and its author pop up. Someone needs to hold this clown accountable, and call out things for what they really are. Its not just a trading game anymore, peoples' future financial security lie in the balance, and they need to know what is truly going on.... not land on this thread and read posts by its FOOL author and then be subconsciously coerced into thinking everything will be ok. I'm not saying it won't... but anyone from the outside that lands here... needs to know the author is a FOOL and he's speaking out his ass at this point. With what apparently is a low IQ to boot, one that I severely underestimated. JMHO. And I'm right.
Errrrr, old school stuff, it don't work no more, and the only reason it did work in the old days was because everyone trading back then was a whole lot dumber/naive/long term bagholders.
Ya I hear you Vanzy, but this is a public forum, a very good one I may add, but you'll always have a handful of renegades who are outspoken and say weird stuff from time to time. Last year B1 & NQuerios (he was agreeing with every word from B1 at the time) were driving me insane, kind of livid, but I got over it, I mark certain people in my mind just to not take seriously. Not good being on ET and hopping mad. As for noobs, we are all noobs one way or another in life, we need to be wary of the environment.
Vanzy - this is much more serious than the flu. Death rates are about 10x-20x. https://www.livescience.com/new-coronavirus-compare-with-flu.html
Yes we are. Poetic and perhaps lyrical on your part. I never understood why you had a beef with NQ though. If he agreed with B1 at the time you said, then without looking, I'm gonna say he was spot on. I have a good memory, and I can't recall once when his macro-type calls were more than a day or two off. Tbh... most were within a day. NQ is good. Speedo's a pro. As pro as a retail player can be. He doesn't call tops or bottoms. But if anyone here has proven their mettle, NQ has. I keep track. In comparison to these two, I for one (and most other's here are too)... we're degenerate gamblers. All that said, one has to wonder why this thread is so popular. Its an easy answer, and you said it yourself... B1 is the ultimate troll. Hey... I'm still here and posting... god love him.... he's an irresistible idiot. That'll die a quick death however if someone starts a competing thread. I have no desire to do so on my part. Nor do I suspect you or anyone else here does. So B1 lives on. We just have to call a FOOL a FOOL. And as of late.... (you fill in the rest)
NQ is serious about this stuff, with that in mind, I think some may percieve him as coming off wrong occasionally, (I can see beyond it), and thats only because its extremely difficult to insert the inflection required to adequately convey ones feelings into the written word of internet posts.
It is popular for three reasons IMHO. Because B1 does not police his own journal (This is a journal, remember? LOL!) and keep it tidy... Because he does not police his own posts, one thing leads to another and you get nested threads within nested threads in a journal that spiral down out of control, and... Because a thread like this naturally draws in folks who are bored and have no other place to spew about the various goings on of trading. I do see many people posting (or attempting to post) real-time calls in here, and that adds a ton of traffic. Think of this particular journal as a static chatroom? Maybe? I think?
