    You are a good person and have my respect. Here is a small humble advice from someone who has been here for almost a decade:

    1. You don't have to be profitable to give advice.

    2. If you keep at it you will be there.

    Stay humble, learn as much as you can, even from losers, dreamers or scammers. Someone may post something that appears as nonsense or too good to be true but may trigger your imagination and eventually give you that edge you are looking for.

    1 tick, from VST triggered my imagination. It may or may not amount to anything but I have fun playing with it.

    This is an anonymous forum and we are anonymous posters. No one knows how good or how bad we are as traders except ourselves and our broker's statements.

    Take care.

  3. Hello ironchef,

    Everything I learned, I learned right here from ET forum, nowhere else. And it has made me very successful in my trading. All for the kind cost of $0.00.

    Thank you for the coaching.

    1 tick is an interesting concept, I have been playing with it since VST's post. I can't code API or real time trades, so I am moving down market to try slower thinly traded stocks. :D

    Unless I am that fat person and I go on a pure keto diet, simply binge eat fat & protein. :vomit:

    What is 1 tick trading, as you understand it?

  10. Hello ironchef,

    @rb7 and @NoahA keep on looking for proof, and both like to say " who is profitable, who is making money, who is profitable trader, this guy not a profitable trader, this guy is a scammer, this guy is a liar, this guy add no value. I am not going to take advice from this guy because he not profitable and he can not prove it. All the old men are not profitable so I am not listening to noone."
    But guess what, neither of them can show me 1 ET post of someone making money with concrete facts. blah blah blah blah And they never will.

    So I have to ask the golden question.

    1. Who gives a RATs ass if an ET Member is making money or not? Who cares?? What does it matter to you if I am making money or not trading? I am not going take money from my account and send to yours.

    So all this crap about what ET Member is making money is useless and a waste of time.

    And their is your edge buddy. As I have said, go click go click go click go click and make money everyday!! And take your best guess or whatever you want to do. It is just that simple. Everyday you make no money is a day loss and time wasted.
