I can Steal your Edge, I am serious

  1. You know what

    Some of us have the experience to know what this is all about without disecting the hell out of it.

    I already know this game. Been there, got the T-Shirt.

    As I have mentioned it is only on the weekends that we hear this crap.

    This and Forex scams....Yeah lets stop and analyze this to death.
    Whats "happening" is that the borderline psychos and eccentrics, and nutcases are on their own for a few hours. They have time before going to their jobs as fast food clerks, convenience store clerks, dishwashers, cab drivers, and my favorite, gas station attendants. When they aren't spitting in your food, they have a minute or two to let us know how they are doing. I am enthralled.

    Wholeheartedly agree.

    I am always assuming that if someone is motivated enough they'll find a way to eavesdrop. Hey they may even get into my place and physically steal my computer.

    This is why I have taken a number of steps to "avoid having my strategy going to dust". But I am not paranoid about it, it is more a matter of having some insurance policy.

    Like you mentioned: if they are able to make sense out of my charts / system then most likely they would have been able to build a system without my input.

    edit: the situation would be a lot worse if it was an automated system, then it becomes a matter of just turning it on. pfff...edge gone!

    Have you ever stopped to think that some people may think that traders themselves are total morons and full of delusions? (after all something like 95% loose money etc etc..... :) )

  5. You just don't get it.

    Not only do I hope he can steal my edge, I also hope he's givening it away to his best friend.

    It's just going to push price in the direction of the trade that I've already established.

    This thread is not even on a 4th grade level.

    Here are my trading signals for all to see:

  7. What you really came here to say is that you have low self-esteem and you feel empowered by imagining you can be the source of someone else's paranoia.

    The term is <a href=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ressentiment>ressentiment</a>.

    People like you embody some of the uglier traits of human nature that cause people to be annoying. Find some positive way to stimulate your creative impulses. You will gain more fulfilment.

    Hello everyone, I hope to learn a few things, I am new at this.

    Forgive me Steve or Jimmy but it seems to me that you guys are tripping on your own comments.

    Steve says how no one here has an edge, well what about Steve is he the only one with edge.

    Jimmy your trading strategy seems simple, please tell me exactly how it works so I can push up the price for you, thanks in advance

    (I am assuming that Jimmy makes some money at least, since arrogance is there for sure)

    that’s not necessarily bad thing, arrogance

    cheers.

  9. Yeah, I believe that one (jeez, how many aliases can guy have ...)

    It's pretty simple.

    When the Green Light flashes and price starts to rise BUY! ... and when the Red Light flashes and price starts to fall SELL!

    I've been making a ton, yes a ton of loot using it. If you want somemore specifics for the system, please go to:

    http://www.wizetrade.com/

    Be sure to mention my handle (I get a 10% kickback) for everyone who buys a system based on my recommendation.

    Nah, I'm not arrogant, just rich from my Green Light/Red Light signals, now if I were arrogant, I'd be talking about how I am the God of this, or the Archangel of that, and having my wife or girlfriend post along with me ...



    Cheers!
