The treacherous path to $200k a year

Discussion in 'Chit Chat' started by coolweb, Jun 12, 2005.

  1. The reason I keep asking you is because I KNOW you havent made ANYTHING. But your stubbornness keeps trying to appear successful when everyone knows you arent!! Humility Coolweb, humility! You are not god, you've been trading for 4 months and you act like George Soros. I've read through your thread here and I am 100% sure everyone else here agrees that you are FULL OF IT. Dont worry, I wont waste either of our time anymore, you have proven to me without a shadow of a doubt that you are:

    1. An utter waste of space here on ET
    2. A wannabe who will always be searching for answers to why he is failing.
    3. A boy with very low self esteem.

    You keep on posting, and hopefully, you'll look back on this someday and say "Man, I am so embarrassed that that used to be me"

  2. At 11:51 AM on 9-21-2005, you posted the following:

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=847728#post847728

    Later that day (2:25 PM 9-21-2005) you then claim to sell 10% of your shares with the following post:

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=847885#post847885

    The next day (9:42 AM, 9-22-2005) You covered 25% of your shares here:

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=848606#post848606

    And then covered another 25% of your shares here:

    I have several questions. The first involves math. How does a professional with such a high level of success muck up addition (10 + 25 + 25 = 60)? The second question refers to the attached chart. Based on the time (11:51 AM) of your initial post, you'll notice the 12:30 AM price bar clearly shows a high greater than your stated stop loss (attached chart). Noticing this price action, how did you avoid a stop loss execution on this trade? Next question, around 12:00 PM on 9-22-2005, SNDK reached an intermediate low of $42.82 USD. Yet according to your post here

    http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&postid=849691#post849691

    You waited for the stock to retrace $1.33 USD per share before covering. As a professional, why give back that much profit - especially since you have stated previously how angry you get when you don't capture "all your cents." Leaving cents on the table bothers you but leaving dollars on the table doesn't?

    Thanks in advance for taking the time to clear up these pesky inconsistencies.

  3. Coolweb....I suggest you take time off from the markets and study were your trades went wrong. My guess is that to make up for losses you would make bigger trades to try and get the losses back, then those trades turned into losers.

    To make up for a 50% loss you need a 100% gain. 100% gains are not easy.

  5. Humility

    I love it when people mention this word,

    to me this word means WEAK.

    As someone said, Show me someone with out an ego, and I'll show you a huge loser.


    In a competition, the game isn't to be humble, Its to crush your opponent and laugh at his face after(optional).

    Isn't it a whole lot more fun to talk mutual trash to another opponent , dunk in his face and then laugh at him?

    Remember Reggie Millers CHOKE championship game with the KNICKS around 95?, I loved that moment. CHOKE CHOKE ON IT!


    Got the ego? BACK IT UP, What you going to do? WHAT YOU GOING TO DO?

    Life is much more fun and exciting like this!


    <b>I LOVE THIS GAME.</b>

    and I'm the head starter.

  7. We dont want him to right his wrongs in the market....we need all the dumb money we can get. What would really be great is if Coolweb started his own paysite and recruited 30 or so other's and taught them his "philosophy". I estimate that would net me at least another grand every week :D

  10. Seriously though, the first step is admitting you have a problem. Coolweb, you should browse that gambling site. Its much easier to look at yourself in the mirror once you tell yourself you have a problem. Take a break from bleeding your account, seek out others who have gambling problems as well, and see if you cant set up a support group. Take a year off, get your mind back in order and then come back to trading. Maybe get a part time job at Burger King and see if your parents will let you move back into the basement. Save some money, and hopefully a year from now you'll have scraped together a couple grand to get back into the game.
