    He’s not actually taking the opposite of your orders. He’s just being a lookey loo, and calling that “taking the opposite”

  2. And of course, and ET trash troll. Come one Treeman, you haven't even been able to call a single profitable trade. You can't, can you?

    Surely you’re joking, right? I’ve shown a live open trade p/l in 6 figures, and I have an open challenge for anyone who wants to do a real world, real money $100k trading challenge. Are you suggesting you’re game?

    Your whole “challenge” was one big troll. You never once called out the vitual-ness of the whole thing. No one would have responded.

    Yes I'm aware of that. The exercise is to see if doing the exact opposite of a common trading method would be a viable strategy.

    I doubt most would follow it in real time as the losses will be much larger than the wins

  5. If your method works why would taking the opposite trades be profitable. If there is a chance taking the opposite trades would be profitable then your method is a loser. I think your own account balance would prove that.... if you need to engage in fake trading to verify this then you are kind of demonstrating your amateur status.

    My method works. My account balance does prove that.

    I'm posting because I'd like to see more trades posted in real time so I'll post mine.

    I'm not sure what you are objecting to. If you don't get any value out of the thread don't waste your time reading it.

    3 trades were triggered this morning before I could cancel all the active orders.

    CTL; EVTC; & NGL

    EVTC was stopped out within the hour. (I'm becoming a day trader :) )

    PAA was also stopped out.

    Both positions resulted in a loss of 1/2 % of capital so I'm now down 2% in 2 days.

    Now holding FAST; CTL; NGL
