No worries when you find out honeypants, no one will be expecting a public retraction. Just, you know, a little self-reflection
Honey pants?! LMFAO!!!! I'll be happy to admit I was wrong about Mav. Why would I care one way or the other? The fact remains that not one of the TA gurus on this thread have stepped up the the plate. AND the one who you mentioned BLEW OUT in 2 days. surf
There is a question above. I answered it elswhere and, for that matter, why is Dave posting my name since he, fortunately for me, has me on ignore. Brass posted an advanced beginner view of the world. Patak the designer may be in the same lifeboat as Brass while he mines traders. Capital is used to make money. Patak can't allow that to happen. I certainly do not use Patakj's rules EVER. for me 50K is traded as 31 contracts (about 94% of capital). This is a container volatility decisiion. In about three bars on my trading fractal (5 minute) the money making goal is meet. At the time of the first profit taking (1/!2 of the RTH on average (See Donna's comment)) At this time 3 contracts are added. Why? Because compounding capital is much more important than the "chicken feed" rules Patak promulgates. He is mining traders and has not met one of the top tier of traders as yet. neither has dave Goodboy and I have declined to meet with Covell another one time writer. I enter on the first bar (within 12 to 30 seconds) using the prior day's carryover market command. I obey the market, which is never wrong, at all times. In a 12 trade day with a given ATR I make a multiple of the ATR as is shown by a simple fifth grade annotation called zig zag with a crayola. I only monitor the leading variable of price except when the RDBMS indicator from price (a lagging indicator of price) suppresses using the leading indicator of price variable. I use "The Pattern". the system formed has five OOE's. they intertwine since I used keynes and Carnap proven theory for deducing the system. The market dictates the mathematics. It was invented as an Algebra in 1842. Each numeric base has its own algebra. markets are designed and as a consequence the appropriate mathematics is dictated. The algebra of this mathematics only has two probability values: 100% and 0%. this means the trading is done with total certainty and the markets have no flaws, no noise and no anomalies. Therefore, I cannot do the combine since it is totally fucked up and does not follow the operation of markets. 4 out of 5 people dissagree with me as shown by fucked up polling. this is fortunate. It keeps such people out of my site. there is no way, after a certain poiint, that a person's mind may be used to establish a full differentiation with respect to the knowledge, skills and experience of a subject. this means the subject is closed to such people. there is no way brass, patak, dave Goodboy, Michael Covell, etc, etc, etc can build their minds. they all have mistaken BELIEFS which cannot be erased. this means in terms of neuroscience that for this subject no spectrum of memory can me built. The spectrum is required to be able to build further through the questions that originate within the mind to "fill in" details of the spectrum. In other words the mind used the Bohr Syndrome to shut itself down for the people mentioned. read the wizards. In those books you see the author being "handled" by the interviewees. the Author knocked on the doors because there were piles of money behind the doors. wealth is often inhereted and the trustees try to put it somewhere to keep it "working". corporations with ideas that build business often use money as a commodity. rarely do people help others with their surplus capital. I designed an algorithm (PEP). I applied PEP to three places to be able to use capital totally to get more capital. I get rid of the capital extracted. All people playing the combine do not know how the market works or they would be using the correct knowledge, skills and experience to work on other things. I work on PTSD given by the chain of command to elistees and their families. this is a very difficult mental challenge for those who were given this gift from hose who were unfair to other humans. everyone knows a person with PTSD and you know their relatives. get off your ass.
FCX, go for it! There's only upside for you. You can trade 6E like CL and it's active in the overnight session. If you pass the combine, you get a funded account. If you blow up you can lay blame everywhere: 1. You work FT 2. You're a FT student 3. You have a little baby 4. You never traded CL or 6E live, not even live in a simulated account 5. TA is worthless junk science 6. NoDoji's really a transsexual Australian truck driver
There are multiple traders trading both real and combine simultaneously--- You are out of excuses other than you are afraid to lose-- not to participate. COME ON< NODONNA, PROVE ME WRONG ABOUT CHART READING. thanks, surf the other "educator" on this site blew out and quit today--- proving my point about chart readers-------
Professor Hershey, These excuses are all very very weak. I'll pay your fee for the Combine if they wont wave the fee on my suggestion. If you could really trade, you will take the challenge, that's the bottom line. surf
Patak stuff is garbage. This comes from an industry that makes money charging fees and getting commissions. Fees and commissions are a trivial necessity for traders who extract capital from the markets. garbage in...... garbage out.
]I see you have taken me off ignore and put me on the phony list. Thank you for doing some work for me. This will keep people who agree with you away from me.
