The Before The Bell Calls w/ TraderBrad

Discussion in 'Politics' started by traderbrad, Apr 19, 2004.

  1. Plum,

    Thanks for the clarification, but I still think we can make this work!

    If there are 2000 traders, and we all make just a half point on the ES from the TB calls, we've got the money!

    So come on guys and gals, let's do it!

    P.S. You seem like a smart guy, you're not taking me seriously, are you? :)

  2. Well, I am really disappointed. No BTB Calls with TB today! I had my charts open, TWS and Ninja fired up, I was ready to go. Here I defend the guy against all you hungry wolves, and he leaves me hanging! I even tried to drum up some new business for him, and this is the thanks I get!

    I checked the TB website, but alas, no calls posted yet (as of 11:40am, EST). I have a funny feeling that he will post the following on his site tonite: Buy 1122-1120 (since LOD this am was 19.5), target 33-35 (HOD at this time is 35.25). Let's see how accurate I am at predicting this game.

    Whether TraderBrad will post future calls or not is up to him, but in his defense, the reason why he didn't post the before the bell call this morning was because there was a software glitch on this end due to an upgrade last night, which ended up preventing most people's posts from coming through this morning. The problem has been fixed now though.

  5. Thanks for the update Baron, I thought maybe TB was trying to diss us or something. I know he's probably too busy with the action in his live room to post now. Will be intersting to see what is on his site tonite though.

    Quite frankly, I don't know where to begin ... (This was supposed to go up last night)

    TraderBrad is very vague about where he supposedly "Gets in" the market on these before the bell calls, and on his "flash trades". He specifies a 3 point range where he "Gets in" and then uses a 3 point stop - but we don't know where exactly in that 3 point range he is supposed to get in. That means he has a 6 point leeway before he gets stopped out. He doesn't specify that he enters at Market of 1125.50 - because if he had to be specific, he would be stopped out even faster than he was on Monday, and Tuesday. Even using a 3 point stop is an indication that he doesnt know where to get in, and is simply guessing... if hes right, people sign up and if hes wrong he claims it was "a bad day" and six points gives him fairly good Random odds.

    Further proof that he doesn't have a clue is his POSITIONS of entry and exit... Monday he <b>bought on the High of the day</b> and was stopped out. Also on Monday he <b>Sold it on the low of the day</b> and was stopped out. Tuesday he <b>bought it on the high of the day</b> and was stopped out. Even today his entry of 1115-1118 was on the high, and he got lucky... the Market was oversold from Greenspan and had no where to go but up. Big deal... If you entered at the top of his "17-18" range, you still would've been stopped out. Again, without being specific, 6 points is a LOT of range.

    <B>Question:</b> What's the real reason for this large 6 point range?

    <b>Answer: </b> He doesn't know what hes doing (simply guessing), and its obvious from his movies that this is the case - considering the bogus nature of them.

    If you looked at Mondays movie, you can see that he's completely full of it. He mentioned both of his losses that he posted here on the forums (and only because we were watching him) and then completely turned around at the end of the movie claiming he bought and sold in that timeframe for a profit.

    Brad had something to prove on this forum about his trading ability... why would he say to sell at the market, and get stopped out for 3 points - when in reality he was buying it in his room and on his movie?

    The reason is that he didn't know, and he's just like every other idiot who buys on the high of the day, and sells on the low.

    The proof to the falsehood of the movies is Tuesday's trading day, where the market was in a freefall and TraderBadly decides to "Leave" during the most active part of the day. If he was sitting there and actually knew what to do, then he would've stayed and traded. He left because he doesn't.

    If Brad wanted to prove that he had ANY Clue, then he would specify a specific tick of where he enters , and not a 6 point range. Any moron could enter a trade with a 6 point stop and make money. If Brad would say "Buy signal at 1124.00 - 3 point stop" then at least he would look credible. Even if he's right with this 6 point range, he's still a newbie.

    Keeptradin, if you believe this scammer you're a fool. Anyone who pays him any money deserves what happens to him.


    P.S. - I think KeepTradin is TraderBrad on another name, or a ringer for him.

  7. If you read all of my posts about this particular individual, you should be able to tell that I am anything but supportive of him. I came to his defense of his 4/19 and 4/21 calls, simply because I didn't want to seem fanatical in my criticism of him. There was a chance, although very remote, that one could have made money on those calls.

    As far as his movies go, anyone with more than five minutes experience reading charts can tell they are bogus. If he is as good at bottom- and top-picking as his movies make him out to be, he would be trading nine-figure accounts and naming his own price to do so.

    So in answer to your "question", I am not TraderBrad, or anything even closely resmbling him. I use one, and only one, name here on ET, because I have nothing to hide. Take the time to research things thoroughly, before making assumptions (see first three letters of that word).

    Like I said previously, I'm sure his postings on his website tonite will be good for a few laughs. And that's really all I'm here for.

  8. samson, how is your case proceeding ?? hopefully you have competent counsel. the disclaimer can easily be destroyed by showing intent to defraud, or mislead. the wire only requirement and the little to no inate cost of the service coupled with the movies that show almost perfect accuracy ( created with hindsight per the disclaimer ) should assure you a victory if presented by competent counsel.

    best,

  9. Samson probably won't be able to answer, because TB sent the cops after him! A guy as powerful as TB probably has some serious connections with the local (even national) authorities. Based on TB's threats, Samson is probably under the jail by now! LOL
