No!!!! You misunderstand! I don't know anyone making $0 to $5K/Day trading ES or NQ. But I know three groups making >$5K/Day. The point I am trying to make is that I simply do not know any "small time" ES or NQ traders! Doesn't mean they don't exist, I just don't know of any. For these people, $5K a day is _really_ dissapointing. Do you understand? BTW, in a way, perhaps this is what the challenge is about. Perhaps what the man means to say is that there are no _small_ winning ES or NQ traders for three years straight, or that they are very rare, much rarer than three year profitable small time equities traders. _This_ statement I believe, though I have no direct proof. nitro
Well, yes. This particlar group is not the star group. I cannot talk about the other one at all... nitro
No! I have absolutely no idea how to translate the above jibber-jabber, but its really OK because I couldn't care less who you know or how much they are making. As for your new interpretation of the challenge -- this is how I took it all along.
Are you sure you don't care? You spent an aweful lot of time prying for someone who "doesn't care" and you seem to have read every word like a lawyer getting ready for a trial :eek: Also, you _are_ interested in the original conjecture Seems like you are more interested in knowing that there are no winning small ES traders than that there are. Hmmmmm..... As to my "new interpretation," if you couldn't interpret what I was saying while "jibber jabbing," you would not understand the "new interpretation" either, as it requires an understanding of the statement above it [the "jibber jabbing" part, in case you don't understand this jibber jabber ] But to leave pitty squabbling aside, there is a great deal to be learned from _why_ it "might" be true that it is much harder to see small time winning ES/NQ traders than the equivalent small time equity traders, and therein lies a great insite. nitro
Nitro, I am absolutely positively sure that I have no idea what your delusional ramblings on this thread are supposed to convey. How could I? In one breath you say that you know no one making less than 5k per day, and then in the next you seem to brag about knowing a "group" that makes 10k per month consistently. Then you come back at me like I am supposed to know what it is that you are trying to say And no I don't give a shit about who you know, because I dont think you know anyone making 2 commas trading index futures -- I think this secret group you speak of is a figment of your imagination. Thats right Nitro -- I think you are completely full of shit. I think you speak of these mythical ES traders for the same reason you have 4 thousand posts, because you are a sad little man who tick fucks the ES with one lots and you come here to use this medium to look/sound cool to the other pikers on this board in a desperate attempt to inflate your shot ego and take your mind off your insecurities. Your lame and I'm done with you. Carry on.
$5K a _day_ not a month. If I typed $5k a month, it was a typo. Well, if you will not take my word for it, then you may as well believe that not only are these groups are a figment of my imagination, but that I am a figment of yours. How do you go about believing that anyone on a message board is full of shit or not? I want to hear this one But look, all you have to do is raise that "challenge" "prize" to a real number, and then you will _know_. Why are you responding to every post I make if you think that I am a lunatic? LOL LOL LOL Did I meet you in another thread perhaps? Maybe under a different one of your handles? nitro
No it's not a quote from The Stranger. I believe it was from the book "Essays; and the Myth of Sysiphus", but I might be mistaken -- it's been awhile.
