  3. I am not attacking anybody but it makes no sense. I know guys making over a million a year trading but not flipping 100k shares of pennies in a day trade. It you are making it great but why can’t I question it. You are 27 a few years out of college and making millions the last few years flipping penny stocks on the nyse specialist. I honestly don’t want to fight with people but it seems hard to believe. I do not question a guy like NBBO because he might be trading size to make the money he does. I will let this die now.

  4. its irrelevant wether mskully or the rest are telling the truth. THE FACTS ARE LESS THAN 5% OF THE PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE A CAREER TRADING LONG TERM. AND I'D SAY HE ODDDS AR ELOWER THAN THAT. I'VE BEEN DOING THIS 15 YEARS DAY IN DAY OUT AND THE 100'S I'VE MEET OVER THAT TIME ONLY ONE'S LASTED FULL TIME WITHOUT INTERUPPTION. THOSE ARE THE FACTS ALL ON THIS BOARD SHOULD BE TRYING TO BEAT INSTEAD OF WORRYING ABOUT POSTING BLOTTERS. AND MAKING IT 1ONE TWO OR EVEN 4 YEARS ISN'T A CAREER. I'D DEFINE THAT AS 10 YEARS ARE MORE

  5. Brokerboy,

    If you saw the commission and rebate deal that mksummy has, you could easily believe that he was making that amount of money with his particular style of trading.

    I do have two issues with this thread...

    1) Newbies don't realize that it is impossible to trade mksummy's style without his commission structure (which is BY FAR the most ridiculous deal I have ever heard of).

    2) I think some of the more successful posters on this thread get a little too cocky with all the newbies sucking up to them. Phrases like "that stock is my own private ATM" and "[I made $3500 and I only traded 45 minutes]" are really asinine and aren't going to help any newbies feel better about their progress.

    I agree comepletely with your statement. However, this thread is about posting blotters. Which is why people are posting blotters. :)

  7. I saw be pays 5 buck tickets and routes it for ecn’s rebates. I don’t question he makes money but it sounds unreal to make millions a year doing it. A 27 year old kid woke up one day with a few 100k in his bank account and is flipping penny stocks to greatness. It should be a movie. The cockiness of what he says makes me think it’s not true. Anybody who does that knows it’s not easy. It comes of so bad but maybe I am wrong.

  8. I agree. He comes off like its not a big deal making $7k in one day.. and he is going to stop because he decides to take his daughter swimming or to the mall.

    I dont think he has ever posted one down day.. thats why its probably bogus...

    Just sounds like bullshit to me.

  9. Guys it is pointless to fight about it. The purpose of the thread was always positive. It was always to showcase people who make money. When I post notice that I include my positions so people can see what stocks I am in etc. Some people just post the numbers. Why does anyone care to fight about it publicly. It makes the thread look bad. PM insults at eachother if that gets you off otherwise just try to be cool. Please.
