Firstly, as I keep mentioning, it is wise to be able to quickly spot the difference between bullshiters and those who know JH has just proven he is a bs artist with his silly and ridiculous comments:eek: Long term memory is right in front of your eyes, so there is no need to remember it Now, back to what REALLY matters most Most of us are born into circumstance, and, we have very little control over what way we are brought up. For those who are brought into this world by ignorant parents, again, which is unfortunately the majority, there is already a very big hill to climb and overcome. Ones ability to accept the TRUTH of the way things are, is the first real step in progress, for, if we are to accept everything just because our parents tell us it is the right thing to do, we are really not thinking for ourselves. Look at religion, fr instance:eek: We have some people who won't eat red meat which is full of protein and other good brain requirements, some people who will not take blood even if the last drop is dripping out of them, some people who defend men in black suits even after it has been proven that they have been molesting young and innocent children for years, and, many more silly and ridiculous things that I am sure you can think of yourself:eek: It is said that History repeats itself over and over, and, do you now see why! Radical thinking is a very powerful thing, but, must not be done blindly and without first considering the consequences, for, once one accepts that "everything happens for a reason", things become much more clear and are easily understood. Now, who really gives a shit about who done what in the past, who was the best at this and the worse at that, for, it really does not matter, at all Nature has provided ample for all, but, due to the ability of strong minds to control weak minds, the few have most and the majority have least. It really is a cruel world, but only if you let it be! The first real step to financial independence, is, realizing that making money is really very easy in the markets, for, we are dealing with people who have been conditioned to think in certain ways, and, once we understand this, we can actually SEE what they are thinking, and thus, be one step ahead of them Anyone that talks about analyzing volume, spread, angles, geometric ratios, and all the other myriad of mindless meaninglessness, well, clearly show that they are still bound by the limits of what their parents have passed on to them. BTW, I have great respect for my parents, dead and living, but, I also accept the fact that they were brought up in a very ignorant and brainwashed society, and, they were not fortunate enough to have gone thru the experience in life that I have, for, it is only by experience that wisdom is acquired, and, it is the application of wisdom that produces change, and the most wise thing that one can experience in trading, is.. " A wise man learns from the mistakes of OTHERS" Do you now see why TE is the real EXPERT, and the others, who need not be named, are, well, just ignorant bullshit artists that know absolutely nothing about trading
This type of behaviour should not be allowed, no matter who it is, for, posting insults in public is one thing, but, to send someone a private insult is an entirely different matter, and, has led to very sad consequences on other sites, where some people have taken their own life, so, this MUST NOT BE ALLOWED under and circumstance, and, such people must be banned from the site immediately. I do not agree with banning, normally, as it prevents free speech, but under certain circumstances, such is this, it is a must. I do not care who the person is that sent you that PM, but it should be reported to the mods and the person banned immediately. TE
Looks like delidio's posts have been removed by the mods and he has been reincarnated as shamma. There must be some bad history between that guy and JH, I'm not personnally interested though. Thanks for your wisdom TE The education system in the UK that I experienced after the age of 11 placed people into schools based on their ability, and to some extent according to parents wishes. The system streamed people into two classes: future manual workers or future professional workers. I found myself assigned to a school that had been built to serve the needs of local industry, where people had education up to the age of 16 and then went to work for local employers and eventually retire at age 65. At the age of 16 I found that many of my school mates were quite happily, like sheep, intending to follow the path that had been chosen for them and my parents expected me to do the same. The education system wasn't so constrained that there was no other choice though, but other choices were not made apparent. A remark by a teacher alerted me and a few others to the option to move to another school to continue education up to age 18. My parents expectations for me mean't that they were oblivious to such a possibility as no one had ever told them. Before I went to the new school another teacher stated that I'd be in the 'c' stream, meaning that it would be a struggle. In fact that wasn't the case, I was no genius but I did very well, outperforming many of those already there. It occurred to me that the real reason why many other people got into that school at a much earlier age, was not due to their own inate ability, it was mainly to their parents knowning how to play the system to their advantage. Looking back I've no complaints about my own education, it was all free and the later university education was mostly state funded. Its just that the school education system was flawed, using selection at age 11, and seemed designed to pigeon hole people into future roles and keep them uninformed as to alternatives.
You have rightly described what happens to most in the "Education System", and it is unlikely to change in the very near, and far, future:eek: There is ONE main reason why you changed what you had, and, it is also one of the main things that is required in order to make some GOOD money trading the markets. What is it? Hint Hint - 6 letter word TE
