Scam used delayed demo account to put their orders while watching the real price over another screen. they can see the price will go up sharp on the live account and then put the orders on the demo delayed account and if you see the logs of the demo account you will think he is the best trader in the world !
I don't mimick. I watch how he evaluate the situation. how he go over his stress. what is his rules when he has big winner. what is his rules when he has a big loser ! that is another phase of learning. People who mimick other traders are big losers !
seems like you are ironic and don't want to support people who are willing to learn. please refer to my last post to get my point !
'don't want to support people who are willing to learn' - this phrase stinks big time! suppose The Russians are willing to learn the American defence system.. the mere 'willingness to learn' creates no value for exchange..go tell J.Simons you're WILLING to learn his trading trategies! ) you can use this phrase to a teacher or to your employer but in the trading field it's out of bounds imo..in other words you want my methods to kill me)
thinkorswim not delayed, only the quotes are, the charts are in real time, and stimulated trades are net in realtime.
Thinkorswim provides you with a setting under the username and password to switch between realtime and demo account. the demo is 15 mins delayed ! I tested that long time ago
I tried to train or mentor a friend who was a doctor. Despite, having a trading plan, trading log, entries, exits, risk management, etc. Everything needed to succeed, she managed to lose $1,000,000 in the stockmarket. That is not a typo. She totally ignored risk management, took too big of positions, traded against the trend, refused to cut losses, did not want to maintain a trading log so, had no way of monitoring her own trading. She put on trades on her own and managed to win one time on sheer luck! Other times, she just lost her monies. I even shared my trades with her. If we had 10 trades, she would pick one or two and just trade those and most times get the losers! I have a 40% win rate but, win size is twice the loss size which should be enough to have an edge. I tell her picking and choosing instead, of taking all 10 trades makes no sense! Been there and done that! No way would I train anyone again because it is so much of a headache!
