Oh hell yeah! and btw, you nailed allenhobbs to the date ... poor guy, his thread fell off the deep end, and he had so much promois, LOOL! - not unlike TJ btw. :eek:
That's definitely ME today.. I just got toasted & served... But, rest assured that I'll be back even more stronger, driven, and hungrier etc.. FCK the SYSTEM
Keeping FOCUS: Trading, like life itself is a NUMBERS game. Nobody is perfect 100% of the time, not even 70%.. What you can really hope to do, is be up and swinging all the time without worrying about getting struck out. You have to keep on swinging for the fences without worrying about the minute details..w/o being mired in what ifs.. wondering.. WHY ME?? of all the other aholes out there.. keep the eyes on the big picture and taking shots, keep on taking shots. You'll definitely fall along the way, that's a given.. and the lowlives will be laughing and talking about and at you.. but, it is how you handle it while you are down that counts. Life is not about whether you fall, but instead about what you do while you are down. I'm down and out right now. But, you know.. I'll be keep on swinging, and keep on grinding it out there. I must fucking strive, inspire myself and fucking make it happen like only one fucking man could really do... I'm myown fuckin inspiration. I need to keep my head up high, focus on things that matter and strive and swing, and go after it with everything I have...
Funniest thing Mandelbrot, is that allenhobbs is still logging in and lurking in the forums...he just won't post. I guess it is official that he blew up.
Even Magna had to throw in the towel on allenhobbs' behalf. Allen's journal is now closed. He was just another sham like the others. A few of us called it from the beginning. These are trying times indeed. At least Magna had the kindness to give his journal a merciful death.
Yeah you're right. FTR, I think trading is one of the hardest thing that anyone can endeavor to do, do well, and succeed at, so I wish everyone success who trys their hand at it. Unlike what marketsurfer said, ain't no haters here, just realists ... and allenhobbs turned out to be a real putz (he blew-up at the height of his glory too, how ironic is that? :eek: ). But back to TJ, cabletrader has some real talent there, and should think about marketing those shirts (although the ET crowd is somewhat limited), but I still think he could make a mint.
