Pabst, would you highlight some of those brilliant trades? i'd love to hear about them, and i'm sure many others would too. Give us some great TRADE stories! (and i don't mean 'story' in the derogatory) Tell us what you were thinking at the time, how you approached the trade, the pain, the pleasure you were feeling as the trade played out etc.. I love a trade story! I love a good story of RISK!
That is some seriously disingenuous and duplicitous bullshit. You could post evidence of your past prowess but you won't. You don't want to confuse your clients with information. You don't want them to get the full measure of what you are allegedly capable of until AFTER they have paid in. Could you not just provide the usual waiver that past performance does not guarantee future results? Is the industry standard not quite up to your high-minded ideals, what with your "being focused on the now moment?" Perhaps your exacting standards will be adopted by the money management community at large. Perhaps they, too, will no longer post historic performance records because such information is so utterly meaningless, particularly over an extended period. At the reset button in the "now moment" we're all the same, right? Did I mention disingenuous and duplicitous bullshit of the serious variety?
With such a glowing endorsement from a man of means, I can only assume that you will participate in Pabst's Excellent Adventure. Oh, you'll have such fun! Oh.
Thunderdog, for someone who want to diversify (no eggs all in one basket), to risk $2000.00 USD for Pabst to trade for them is small risk if they have other moneys in other places. Compare that to Christian Baha Superfund, where people can get in with $5000.00. That fund have high fees and have to make I think about 8 to 10% to break even, before profit for investors. That is good for people who want little correlation to stocks and bonds to hedge, but risky. Always risk, but if it is only small percent of persons money, is it more risk to go with someone with expierence, or more risk to try alone when new to trading? I am curious about your opinion. Also curious about redemption limits of Pabst.
Unless Pabst furnishes his prospective investors with verifiable performance numbers then he is a shameless huckster and his "investors" are fools. Buying lottery tickets with a small portion of one's investment portfolio is also a form of diversification, albeit not a particularly good one. Diversification without due diligence is a goose egg. Those who do not perform their due diligence in the financial arena almost always get pummeled. Pabst wants you to judge him not on his past performance but on his character. Have you read his posts? See any red flags yet? But, hey, people win lotteries, so who knows.
PLEASE THUNDER POST JUST ONE PROFITABLE TRADING BLOTTER, BEFORE YOU SLANDER PHENOMENAL TRADERS ON THIS SITE.
I understand to due diligence. What I see he is making his living as a trader, so that is better odds than the lottery ticket. I am not a lottery ticket buyer. Yes, performance numbers should be given to investors. So thank you for your opinion.
Why is it that, all the right wingers have blotters up or are willing to post blotters, where as lefty pinkos like 777 and thunderingvagina, have absolutely no desire to prove any of the numerous slanders for which they profess.
