    Silly question. 95% don't make money.

    Why are you here hanging out with retail traders?

  3. Honestly, you guys are so annoying. Just answer the question. It's a test! Right now the votes are 9-yes, 10-no. Technically it should be 4-yes, 15-no. Like who fucking cares about sharpe ratios and risk/reward... I do not give a shit, I just wanted to see how many of you truly believe you are better than 80% of the traders on here because you're not.

    Not for anything, I realized that those who try to be smart asses and deviate from the actual SIMPLEST questions and make it complicated for nothing are probably the worse traders.

    Ahhh.... probally worse than that.

    However, maybe these forums are a subset. Maybe ET is a hotbed of incredible genius traders that would put Goldman to shame.

    Maybe ET is like a Florence hangout for artists during the Renaissance.

    (But I would bet more toward the way you are imply)
