How a self made top 5% trader views the world (ME)

Discussion in 'Professional Trading' started by chloride, Aug 10, 2007.

  1. Don't feed the trolls. We all know that these people cannot be taken seriously. Replying to them only makes them worse.

    You might be the best trader in the world, in spite of your attitude and the comments people here are making don't prove anything either way. However isn't it better to show us instead of tell us?
    So on Monday night post your blotter, or better yet post your real time trades. I am reserving judgment on your abilities until then, and everyone else should as well.

  3. you can all psycho analyze me all you want

    but the simple truth is,

    most of you DO NOT STAND a chance

    it isn't your choice, so don't be hard on yourselves

    on page 21 of this thread, I gave pointers to how easy trading is.

    None of you even bothered to read it.

    instead you wait for some fool to insult me and start the cycle of bashing

    and you all join in

    its fun for you and yes its fun for me

    but come Monday I won't be a loser and chances are most of you here will

    so take my words to mean whatever you want them to. :)

    I am not here because of you fools that respond to me with insults

    I am here because I know that there is a shitload of SILENT readers who don't comment but read all this stuff and learn from it

    3 of them PMed me but many more don't

  6. I'M AWARE you do this for sport, trading is an isolated occupation, friends and family can't relate to the mental mettle one must don.

    I believe the problem lies with your approach of giving back. Your character dictates the need to contribute but you can't simply put your knowledge on a silver platter and present it as a gift.
    It doesn't feel right, does it? Uncomfortable and futile because they wouldn't view it as valuable.

    However, you can use arrogance as dutch courage and busting a few chops in the process is just a bonus.

    I read the pointers you spoke of, I view it as excellent advice. All to often traders get mired in the details and fixate on capturing the TOTAL range of pure profit.


    Some of the best traders are right less than 50% of the time. The difference between winners and losers in this business is taking a small loss and as you stated "Let your winners run."

    Most don't survive simply because they CAN'T TAKE A LOSS.

    The trend doesn't listen to opinions, and stops are your only friend.

    addendum: .....but you're still an asshole.:p

  7. when i first saw this I knew that chloride was just another person who has a life that i am truly thankful that I will never have. i didn't think most people on this site would even dignify him by responding to his post. come on guys, why even argue with this idiot? by chloride's standards, i know quite a few 'top 5%' traders, as well as 'top 1%' traders, and I can assure you none of them would ever behave like this, much less have the same, sad beliefs. chloride, may peace be with you. i mean that.

  8. Redbull13, your Jesus like serenity in your post makes me want to know you

    tell us about yourself

    also by saying that you know FEW TOP 5% traders

    but by not mentioning that you are one yourself

    that means you are a loser

    sorry bud, this business is binary

    and I feel sorry for you :(

    lot of nice guys like you never make it.

    You should read my first post in this thread about how to find your power

  9. im only going to respond to that by saying that i am very young, and i would classify myself as a beginner. call me a loser if you want to, but dont call me jesus-like because i am not religious.
