I had a feeling the majority of Elite Trader posters were small fry traders, so I put the most emphisis on the lower brackets. Some interesting numbers huh!
Trader28, who let you out of the chitchat/feedback sections? OK, WHO was in charge of Trader28 tonight? I swear its impossible to find a good babysitter here at ET
Don't generalize your statements as universal truths. You are the only one who keeps stalking me everywhere. Mind your own buisness stay out of my range. You can't push me around, you know that don't you?
As I mentioned earlier you won't get a straight answer. These people are small time fry traders. The lack monetary wealth and they scalp and make end meet and lose it all eventually.
Answer the damn post... how much is you account worth? Instead you started shadow boxing evading the question directly with insults thrown at me at random, because I beat your ass some other threads. I can tell your account is worth nothing to write home about.
I DID answer the poll numbnuts, I chose one of the options. If you want more specifics, for the year 2007 and with my $10,000 account, I produced $177,000 net profits. I have an account with a well known prop firm and I am given leverage on my capital.
It sounds more like a boast to me.....10,000 to 177,000 in 12 months. You be the Judge what kind of fantasy this guy is deluded with behind his musty green curtains and his keyboard?
Why would I be jealous of you? Obviously I do better than most people who trade options and stocks. I have bigger accounts just because I was able to accumulate that in my own time. I feel at ease.
Which is why scalping is a great way to make money, I constantly free up my capital to take advantage of new opportunities intraday. While you are posting on here about all the "gloom and doom" and holding your positions well into the red, I've just made 5 trades and netted $700. Do this over over and over again and then you'll understand how one can trade with 10K and produce 177K. Oh, and my weak #'s are nothing compared to some of the big hitters on this board but since you asked me to "answer the damn post" I did. Sorry you dont like my answer but tough shit.
