  2. Hi peilthetraveler,

    you hit it right into the spot.

    Yes my strategies are so good.
    How i posted in some other thread i made it from 100,- Euro to over 6 million so far. This is no problem nowadays, with this super high leverage FX and CFD accounts.

    But noone believed me anyways. They all just thought i am a poser. But i could do it again, why ? Because every trade is just a statistical manner, the only variable in it is the risk/leverage i take on it.

    Maybe you could work for me for free, but i wont tell you my secrets, LOL.

    But something must can be done with statistics, without sharing my secrets. Or not. Pretty difficult.

    Because once you have understood my strategies, it all opens up to you clearly and you really see how easy it actually is.
    Its like a puzzle, but you are having all parts and just waiting when they fit together.
    You know it, i am not the only smart ass genious trader here on ET.

    So, thanks for you idea, but this will not come into my selection.

    Best,

    HTR

  3. Now this starts all again.

    I have money, oldtimer.

    Remember, that homepage i wanted to create to sell some signals, that was just for fitting that problem of being lonely and having some contact with other trades, who paying for my signals.

    But i lost the interest in it. Just too much work for nothing useful comes out of it.

    I might be a rude asshole often, but i am not a lyer, and i am surely have not the time or nerv to troll around anywhere like a 12 year old kid.

    Now i just tried to be a friendly guy and right then someone pissed on me again.

    OMG, this is a waste of time.

    Oldtimer, i am thinking more forward than you have ever done.
    No miracle that you havent gone rich through your brokerage or through your new found trading.
    To make it to be called rich, you need to have a kick ass mentality and that my friend i miss at your posts.

    Dont want to insult you. I am just saying how it is.

    I have no time and nerv for any kindergarden.

    Good day

    HTR - A little bit of advice to you.

    Sometimes its a good idea to just ignore the comments that you don't like or feel offended with. If you reply in such a strong opposing manner, the OP will also respond in an increasingly negative fashion and it will lead to all negativity and no real progress. This is one of the top reasons why good threads go off the track.

    Just calm down man. Good wishes.

    Best,
    GMST

  5. hey now that I have you on the phone, when does your Monday or in my case Sunday market open? Mine opens in just about 45 minutes, 17:15 est. They tell me to never hold crap over the weekend but I never listen. The Sunday opening can be anything, I never know. A little gambling to spice up an otherwise boring trading strategy.

    So when do you guys over there start trading after the weekend? I guess officially it would be 3:00 for us on EST. The spreads are pretty wide until about 00:00 est.

    Don't take it so personally. It's kind of like boxing, you have to take a few on the chin to size everything up.

    Greetings Again, HTR,

    In answering your questions about my friend, he trades because it is his all consuming interest and passion, and he really doesn’t need to “work” another day in his life. In truth, they will probably have to pry his cold dead hands from his keyboard, when he eventually does pass. For other reasons, his children, and immediate family members, are not that enamored in following his path. I know this to be one of his biggest regrets in life. And, aside from me, he really had no other “kindred spirit” to share his trading screen experiences with, on a moment-by-moment basis. This “community club” has fit the bill perfectly for him.

    In my response to you, I’m sorry that I foolishly assumed that this was similar to your case as well. But I now understand it is not. I now understand that you want to make this endeavor, a full-blown business venture, complete with employees and offices. However, it is my opinion that you need to think long and hard about this decision.

    You may start with the idea of sitting at your trading station, in command of all you see. But I can assure you, as one who has been there, and done that, when you start to manage people, rather then managing trades, in addition to taking on the government as an unwitting business partner, you may well live to regret that decision.

    In any case, so much for my opinion. I have also learned that a person has to do what is in their heart to do. So in that regard,……I say go for it all, and start planning for your own business!

    Now in answering your previous questions:
    Question #1: Do these people actually trade his money or their own?
    Response: The members trade their own money, though I believe a few of them are also using his signals to do trading for their families as well.

    Question#2: Is he then more a teacher, than a manager boss?
    Response: He is really a consummate passionate teacher at heart. I truly believe he missed his honest calling in life, in that he should have been in front of a classroom, instead of flying jets.

    Question#3: What do you think about my last post, with letting people do my trades including teaching them the exit signals?
    Response: Personally, if what you do is as mechanical as you say, I would rather have a computer execute my trades, and take the human element out of the equation. Otherwise, these could wind up being some very expensive employees, with their inevitable mistakes that could cost you big bucks. In this way, it would also allow you the luxury of time to experience the vagaries of running your business, with more time to experiment and test out other trading ideas. You’ll also have an office full of highly intelligent “functionary statisticians” at your beck and call. Your trading brain, and their statistical number crunching capability....could be a winning combination.

    Hope these answer what you were looking for.

    My Best.

  9. Greetings gmst,

    yes, thank you very much.

    I am just so an choleric and get easily agressive, thats why you would not want to mess with me, when you meet me in a bar, because i would punch your face to ketchup.

    But i know, thats one of the reasons why i am so damn good in my business, because i am a fighter and i am free and nobody can fuck with me and take this away from me, never again.

    I am a free man, this is all what counts.

    I am calm.
    Everything is cool, my friend.

    Keep on rockin.

    Best,

    HTR

  10. Greetings my old friend,

    how i already have posted a thousand times,
    i start working Monday 00:00 New York time, what is 6 a.m. Central europe time.

    I dont hold positions over the weekend.
    I dont enter trades on Fridays, i only close trades there.
    I trade after New York Time for all markets.
    Thats because i am a short term money maker.

    I also can trade long term, then i would hold trades over the weekend, of course, because then a gap against me, would nothing bad do for me, cause the price move is so much bigger, than on a short term trade move.

    We are cool oldtimer, i am your friend.

    Although you are an old dog, you should never forget that it is never too late, to make it big in the biz. You just need to get all your things together and do the right things for a certain time, then you are done and can enjoy the money.

    Best Regards,

    HTR
