Oh No, NOT Another S&P EMini journal...

Discussion in 'Journals' started by goodday, Jun 23, 2006.

  1. goodday,

    You don't seem to be journaling your trades. All you appear to be doing is posting spectacular returns with no proof. Such as: Oh...in the last 3 hours I traded 110 contracts and made $3500 or pre-market I traded 75 contracts and made $2250. It is not only useless, but I won't believe your results without a credible blotter shot. I don't think any of these poor souls following you should believe you either. Please post some sort of proof, so that people can take you seriously.

  2. After 10 posts you're already up to moderator status CP?

    gd you don't have to "prove" anything, just take your trades and if you're right you're right, if you're wrong, you're wrong.

    ET wouldn't care (so long as you don't post trades about trading anything that's illegal :p )

    Put this clown on ignore, either metaphorically or literally.

    Best,

    JJ

    Hello Cpt Power,

    I understand your frustration. And, I am sorry about that. However, I need to be true to myself and worry about improving my trading. I am NOT interested in impressing anyone or having anyone follow me.

    TO ANYONE READING MY DIARY: Please do not follow me or do anything I do. I do not intend to give anyone direction or advice on what to do, based on my trading.

  8. I don't think Cpt Power is frustrated. Dissapointed maybe, but not
    frustrated. Jounals in ET don't seem to be have the entertainment
    value they once did. These days, all anyone is willing to do is post
    their PnL. goodday has taken the concept a little further by breaking
    his "trades" down into time frames. Wow. I guess that will help him.

    And I don't think anyone here will follow someone who admittedly
    has lost almost a $Million$ trying to figure out how to trade.

    Especially since there is nothing to follow in the first place...:p

    Trying to dig out of a $Million$ hole must be frustrating...

    Especially if if is real, and not on a simulator...:p

    Thank you for you perspective. I never looked at it that way. I am constantly amazed at my naiivette.
