Risk, Could you please post the blogger of the trades ? Feel free to blur out any delicate information including car size. Thank you Susana
I see what scalpers do and yes I am new to futures, but I am a swinger(Ithink it is called "swing trading" Using a sim account (Collective2.com) in one system - a 20k account, I went long 21-Mar-2008 with (4) NQ contracts now up $12,660. The idea is to add contracts with account growth - thereby compounding the gains <i>over time.</i> NOTE: I am still new, but progressing toward my updated goals. One day I hope to move into a MUCH larger arena. Have any scalpers/elitetraders successfully compounded their winnings over the last say 3 years? If so they are likely worth a few million and happily expectant to achieve 10's of millions in a few more years Ga aka pS
You should have also mentioned that the other one of your systems, according to Collective2.com, has 97% chance of losing 100% of the equity.
Moderator, I think that you should review this thread. Please let me know what my rights (if any) are as an original poster. The majority in ET are good people, but there are some savages who spend their time insulting and harassing others in multiple threads. I can provide you with names and with the proofs (written history cannot be changed). Do not be deceived if such people later start signing with personnal names, and indicating their locations, etc. They have done it in the past. It is a pattern. When they feel the heat, they may resort to appearing as "gentlemen" by signing their posts with personal names and indicating where they are, etc. The fact of the matter is that what one should judge is what they wrote in here, and the apparent motives of their writings which contain mainly obseneities and insults, in disregard of facts presented to them. Again, this is not just in this thread, but in other threads as well. If responding to them in their own language is the policy of this forum, let me know and I would open my gates of hell on them. As I wrote in the past, I love the market mainly because its tick is one of the very few truths in this world that an individual full of himself cannot change (and in fact pays for the privilege of being shown the truth). The future ticks cannot be manipulated by a savage individual when acting alone. For that reason, I tell my readers to focus on the facts, and to reach objective conclusions. I have fate in their judgement, but such good people, helas, typically do not write enough, but I do not blame them. I thank those who contributed positively to this thread.
I have provided plenty of clarification, guys. Read EVERYTHING between the lines. I didn't get to these recent trades without trying various types in the other accounts - read: new to futures. Fortunately, I have a pretty good chance of making it from here based on about a decade of study and work that is the underlying foundation for these swings. Please stay focussed a bit more with the "gist" - not the hating. Did you or didn't you accomplish great dreams: i.e. COMPOUNDED growth. I am trying to achieve this with my new ventures. Seems simple enuf for y'all to accomplish - just state it or post it, this would be interesting and valuable info. Say you made on average $200 a day scalping in the first year. Then say $400 a day the next (again on average) and $800 a day in the third. - or $50, $100 and $200. You elitist must understand simple math and the POWER of compounding. Maybe for some reason can't be done with day-trades, I just don't know. But we immediately go for the mockery and I must be better than you, gig. Help! Gilbert
Riskfree, are your posts in the thread at the url below the kinds of posts you're asking the mods to look at and consider peoples rights? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=116105&perpage=6&pagenumber=1 There are a dozen or so other threads where your main objective was to display arrogance and insult as many people as you could while maintaining you trade riskfree and only take risk for sport. Perhaps you could also ask the moderators to refer to a handful of threads you started which had to be removed because of your insults and foul language. I hope people pay particular attention to your former profile which was cut and pasted to that thread before you changed it. I think it gives some nice clear insight about you. By the way its okay for you to post that all others are broke or theyâre âdefinitely NOT a traderâ ... in your world thatâs okay right? But when others post you need to refer to the moderators and your rights.
