    I think it's safe to assume charlie has slithered away in search of the gullible elsewhere.

  4. Here is a clue... Don't hold your breath expecting broker statements from "you know who". Surely you do not seriously think he trades LOL :D

  6. A wise man once said: "You can live to work or work to live."

    Then there is also the expression: "There is the fool who says and does the worng thing all the time and then there is the Wall Street fool who feels (s)he has to trade all the time"

    If I take two - four trades in a week and trade perhaps 5 ~ 8 hours total a week does that make me a bad trader? Once when a person knows how to trade then the millions come a lot easier than the hundreds do when you are still at a loss on how to go about it.

    I am indebted to Paul Rotter and his flipping. This is similar to Jessie Livermoore getting screwed by the bucket shops. If it had not been for him I would never have learned to go for the bigger swings and would always have been stuck in trading the small fluctuations. And that is not where the real money is.

    When I read these lengthy goble-di-gook replies of you then I pity you.

    Your reaction to Grob's posts is common, but I advice you to try and read patiently through them. You'll find a lot of original and useful ideas that amount to two fully disclosed trading systems. Search for Jack Hershey related threads.

  8. Let just say that I would be surprised too, but after all the hype it would be nice to see someone follow through on what they claimed since he says he trades in front of people at his classes. This should not be much different.

    This professor logic also as an ex-student who is also teaching "trading" here in asia.

    Both quote 80-90% accuracy.

    Both of them "traded" some unpleasant remarks in forum i mentioned earlier.

  10. I did read part of it in the past and for a while followed SpyderTrader's journal.

    Now, why would I want to follow Jack's method if I can leasurely get his (SpyderTrader's) yearly results in less than a month and with less stress / work?
