Ok then Mr smart guy, here is a prediction, that you will never forget. You will not make money trading CL futures! Just wait and see..if You are any bit smart you will take my advice, and say Thank You MrScalper.
You are correct. Here it is. I made "real money". Did you read the journal? If you did and continue on your path of denial, I shall mark you as disruptive. Something is going off about you. *sighs*
I think trading is as close to a game as one can get, as in a typical game you need a plan and a strategy, your emotional reaction is dependant on whether you're winning or losing, it's also based on chance (even if to a degree, is your next trade going to be a win or a loss? Is this month's pnl going to be net positive or the opposite?), like in a game you need more than one player/participant, etc. So the only difference is in your mind, some people get very angry when they lose a game, even if there's no money at stake, others treat losses in a calm manner. So it seems the guys that treat both as a 'game' have more fun doing it. How to make trading fun? Position in such a way that no single loss or a run of continuous losses can affect your networth in such a way that would reduce it dramatically. On the other hand you could be a 'speed junkie' that doesn't give a damn about risks involved and enjoys the thrill of walking on edge. How you approach trading is a very personal thing
It is true. If you can not handle the truth, then do not trade. Remarks like such just show the shortcomings of such a person, which you can bet are also evident in his trading (sim) results. He is just a little dreamer, who can not grasp the reality of trading, no matter how hard he tries, and, is now in desperation as he has no further avenues to follow. In other words, he is the typical failure that is very evident, and if You do not take heed of my advice, You will end up like him.
That's very unfortunate. It is nearly impossible to succeed in the markets if this is your true view of money. Of course, one could get lucky, it happens all the time, but the chance of it happening to any single individual is negligible. A business of some sort may be better suited. And above all, don't listen to me, if lives are truly on the line. surf
Ha, that was cool. Thanks for posting-- i have made it a point since around 2010 not to watch any movies or shows about the markets----- so i have not seen that clip-- very entertaining.
