Let's get back to our topic, please! Why can't we just ignore those posts we don't like? I'm all for a civilized argument, but personal attacks just waste everybody's time and have no instructional or entertainment value. I hate when I get an update email, and I find out that's another disagreeable useless off topic post. Let's agree to disagree, and keep an open mind. Maybe we even learn something useful. Have it ever crossed your minds that when you don't understand somebody else's idea, it might me not be because that idea or that person are stupid, but ...?
i said shorter than, i didn't say 10 min is the one.........it is like this.........1 min 60 closing ticks............5 min 12 closing ticks........10 6 closing ticks........and so on.........clarity is important......smoothness is also important........longer the chart the smoother it gets.........so u find the best time frame for the system..........i asked if someone could name one single idea given that came from any et forum that helpd anyone's trading......just one thing? ONLY 1..........thousands of experts and not even 1 idea that will make money intraday over and over....so why should i be first to give some goodies..... ..
porgie, I usually don't read your posts, because I feel that your orthography says to your readers "I don't care about your time". This is probably just the second or third of your posts that I read. Just browse thorough the following authors' post that immediately came to my mind: Jack Hershey, Spydertrader, makosgu, Don Bright, dbPhoenix, ...
i said 1 single thing .......u gave traders names not one single idea.......db is okay, but answers in riddles.....price volume stuff is great but what i use is way beyond that........i still ask the same question..........one single trading rule for buy or sell entry that makes money day after day.........don't come wit h s/r......pivots and all that junk.......columbus whipped the indians for using that old stuff...........
cnms2, Talking about orthography, your favorite authors example list looks rather funny. Further, porgie gave you some truth in his post that I have never come across in your habitual ruminating.
Because from reading your posts, porgie... you are the only one with the goodies... now give them up...
To the originator of this thread ... I apologize. One last comment to Porgie before I put him on full mental block. I have a read a few posts over the time of my membership to be helpful by other members. Most of them only confirming what my own testing has shown but that is still helpful knowing what I am seeing is not just something I want to see on my chart. Most successful or semi successful traders don't really come here looking for the holy grail in my opinion. Most like to talk trading, strategies, share thoughts, etc and provide useful feedback if they feel they have something to contribute ... not the "trend is your friend" and all the other generic cliches that even people who don't trade could spew forth over and over which is what you do. As far as giving up the goodies as you call them ... I told you, I don't care about your system, don't want your system, because you don't have a system. Your claim the other day on the ES Traders board that your system just reeled off 75 for 75 winners is a joke. Do you really expect people to believe this garbage? Do you realize that would make you the greatest trader in the world? But lucky us, Mr 100% trader takes the time to share his thoughts about his system with us over and over and over. And if someone actually really buys in to your posts, you reply with "send me a private messge" ... I have seen that a few times from you. Who knows what that is all about, hopefully you are not asking them to send you pictures also. So as one poster said a few messages back, you don't have to give up the goodies to prove you are not a fraud, show your equity curve, something to prove your not full of it. Will you ... no ... why ... because all you have is .... "the trend is your friend", "buy low, sell high" ... wow ... insightful stuff.
van, u r an honest man with a perceptive mind........porgie is a liar, has no system, and couldn't trade if his life depended on it....you have won.....i tip my hat to you for recognizing a liar when you read one........have a wonderful trading life.........george
van halen.... its hard to say wether or not porgie really has a winning system. but if he does, i dont see why he would be willing to just give it up. I mean imagine.... if we are all hillbillies panning for gold. At the end of the long miserable day, we all sit by the fire and discuss our lives and prospects. Everyone has a common theme in the conversation.... barely enough gold scrounged up to pay for the pick and pans.... supplies running low... etc ... etc. If a miner did strike gold... would he hurry up and tell everyone else where the spot is... or would he remain quite and get as much as he can. Porgie...... its easy to understand why someone is skeptical about your system. I mean imagine those same miners busting their backs day in and day out... no one ever finding a nugget in lord knows when.... then one old fella starts to hootin and ahollerin about he found the biggest nugget ever seen..... and finding another one the next day... and the next day...so on and so on. As for me.... well.... im just a simple country duck..... sure would like to see that nugget one day though..... just to touch it..... before i die.
