  2. none are me

    but I am sure all are better than you

    I am here on Fri night, I broke my leg in two different places

    you are here on Friday night because you are pathetic.

    sorry, but if you can't take a bit of heat, well get the hell out of the kitchen. :D

  3. How is that guy more pathetic than you? At least he can walk properly without breaking a leg.
    You sound very professional, I'm sure you're making money consistently, I'm sure!

    With as long as the Internet and message boards have been around surely we'd have evolved to the point of realizing its totally worthless to talk about who is better than who, who's quality of life is better than who elses and who is a better trader/has more money etc. You can say anything you want on the internet, and unless you get to know a person you will have no idea...even then a person can decieve others for a good amount of time if that is their goal.

  5. As usual negativity shows up on every thread

    starting with a person accusing me of being not one but several other people

    if you trader wannabees out there want to read my thread as motivation then do so

    if you want to read my thread as entertainment only.......hell then do so

    to each his own I guess

  7. Most of your OP is OK...
    But here you are DEAD WRONG.

    It's like saying "only persistence" is required to be:

    (1) A world class musician.

    (2) An NBA basketball player.

    (3) A feature film director.

    Nothing could be further from the truth.
    Talent is 90% of the ballgame... as it is in trading.

    Actually, talent only accounts for 10%. I have to agree with OP that difference between well enough, talented player and top player is 90% persistence.

    Your method is not a prescription for life success. Money is but one aspect in the pursuit of happiness. Going through life angry, hateful, and negative is inconsistent with happiness. Find another way to be a successful trader. There are plenty of kind, happy, pleasant money making traders. Don't cut off your nose to spite your face.
