  1. WRONG! He shorted the GBP in the early 1990s. Get your facts straight.

  2. Great. You gave us the definition of a bubble (a la Soros)

    This still does not change the following facts:

    1. You tried trading the SSO and failed.
    2. You keep assuming that others will fail because you failed.
    3. You are changing reality to suit your own definition of what you think it should be.
    4. You are a spammer.
    5. Nobody gives a shit about your posts.

  3. Most will fail (and this is 100% predictable) because the odds are vastly against short term traders.

    This has nothing to do with me.

  4. No. Most fail due to overleveraging. That is why the success rate is higher for stocks than with futures.

    And indeed this has nothing to do with you. So why do you care?
    Stop telling others what to do and go value invest.

  5. Look. You are correct in saying that most will fail day trading. However, there are so many approaches between day trading and value investing (which at least for the moment does NOT work).

    There are high probability strategies in trading. More likely than not, most involve reducing risk and cutting down on order size.

  6. CRGARCIA is a LOSING trader.

    Losing traders almost always think that it's a scam because they couldn't figure it out. It's the only way they can accept failure. It must be impossible right? :D

  7. Virtually all short-term traders are losers.

    In the long run, only investors remain.

  8. I'm sorry that you have not figured out how to consistently profit from intra-day gyrations, year in and year out. Some of us have, most haven't. That's how it goes.
