I missed some good comedy today. Here is my results for 2014: Account started with $500. Today's account: $7,234,922 That is not bad, but not great. I backtested and studied the charts very very hard!!!! Of course I had losers, yes I had losers. Yes, I am 99.9% sure this thread will not help you trade, but reading from trolls is quite entertaining and adds value when online. The best is when one guy wants to put 30k in escrow and trade against another guy with 30k then the other guy says, "but your account will go to zero, so what can i win?" then 100 pages later it's the same thing. of course this is a waste of time....isn't that the point to waste time? if not, what are you looking to make friends? learn? LOL...
The one thing successful people don't have is time to waste. Lets put it in the context of a real life conversation when you are out and about. Are you trying to tell me that this is the nature of your and the trolls interactions with other people out in the community, after all this forum is just a reflection of who we are, that truly would be a waste of time. Success in business and life revolves around networking, how do you think people who go around in life trying to prove how big a d-ckhead they are fair. You've got to be having a lend of yourself, don't worry I'm not going to ask you where your hand is.lol To answer your question about why I and the majority of other people are here, Yes to make friends, Yes to learn, because I am successful, yet not so arrogent to think that I know it all, whether in speculation or in life. I respect people and their honest opinions whether I agree or disagree with them, as this is something everybody is entitled to, as opposed to the arrogence and sense of self entitlement displayed by trolls. But, there is even a silver lining in interacting with trolls, it highlights the characteristics that lead to my success, whilst leaving me to feel grateful that I don't exist in their reality, although I do have compassion and empathy for them and genuinely wish them well on their journey. But it would be nice if they stopped trying to harm so many people along the way, there is already enough ugliness in the world. Just a further thought, perhaps this post also explains why these people don't know anyone successful in this business, I certainly don't feel inclined to foster a friendship with them , so why would any other successful person go there either. Cheers John
So much mention of success in this thread, yet I am seeing no sign of any multi-percent success whatsoever. Not even 0.5%. I can't help but to conclude success is weak in this thread.
[/quote] It's all good Joe, as stated in an earlier post I know it's a waste of time trying to get thru to you, my comments are really meant for the readers without your particular blindspot, that is the intelligent self aware people, you and people like you on the other hand have my pity . The way to deal with people like you is to keep holding the mirror up to them, until eventually, how long depends on their level of emotional intelligence, they either see themselves in all their ugliness and stop, or they realize that everybody sees them for what they are, so they go away. So I intend to do this and encourage any of your other targets to do the same. Now there is a challenge worthy of our time. Cheers John
I am heartened to see that my strategy is already having some success, no lies, no abuse, no distortion of facts in your last post. Joe I congratulate you because you have come a long way in such a short time, you have certainly far exceeded even my expectations, wouldn't you call that an example of success. Yes, you are entitled to your own opinion as we all are provided we don't abuse it. Now I say this in kindness, you have taken such a great leap in personal growth it is really important that you take great care to not backslide. Afterall, success usually follows hard work and continued improvement. I just want you to know that we are all supporting you in this new journey of discovery. Cheers John
You are too generous. I can only see a loser in you. Your support would make things worst. Best to support yourself, or maybe not. You are in need of some kind of support anyway. Maybe ask your multi-percent friends for help. You know, with all that networking stuff you can pyramid the help you get.
No one should take my liking of this post by John as personal. Those who regularly got into discussions that don't interest me get ignored quickly. I am aware it's often the other person in the discussion that I have even less interest in following but anyone who is regularly engaging that person causes me to lose just as much time. Generally I confirm someone hasn't contributed something that interests me before choosing to ignore someone. Recently, I removed someone from ignore, because I felt they deserved another chance after I had peeked at more than 20 of their posts and found them both tolerable and often contributing something useful. But generally my experience has been that when I peek at someone I ignored a month ago, they're still spending time arguing, and they're doing it with others instead of those they were arguing with when I initially found it to be a waste of time. For me, that's good enough confirmation that my decision was a wise choice, for me, because I don't want to waste time.
Joe, Joe, Joe, backsliding so soon, the road to success certainly has it's fair share of potholes doesn't it. Obviously you can read so a bit more work on comprehension might help. But as I said earlier, I really don't hold out much hope for you. Cheers John
I didn't give you any time. Nor do I want to put in time to click any buttons. I am just here for some amusements. I normally ask people to see if they know anything about trading. In your case, I have absolutely no inclination. I just couldn't believe anyone can be worst than another guy I know on forum who didn't know how to trade. But in his case at least he tries.
