    You are a pro and I, an amateur gambler.

  2. The purpose of this thread is to show that it's possible to get piles of money out of the casino, continually. I hope more elite traders will post their curves very soon!

  3. Thanks. He is a good coach, because trading is combat and there is no room for false confidence. He reminds me of the old guy I bought one of my planes from, who was one heck of a pilot and had flown some hot wingz in his day. No fooling around with that guy. Always pointing out the flaws, testing everyone. He even had the same last name as one of the Market Wizards in that famous book.

    Because in the industry drawdown spells the end of a trader/ PM career

  5. Weekly update. Portfolio up 15.02% YTD, down .86% on the week because of a perfect whipsaw smackdown of my BA short. Trades like that make me want to reverse my buttons!

    Zero for five attempts trying to short even the sucky stocks over the past few weeks. Open longs looking good. Position size very small until equity curve puts in a buy signal.

    Market looks overextended but nothing is really dipping much yet. FOMU time, wondering if the market has shifted from BLSH to BHSH. You never know until it's already on the chart!

    Sorry I really don't get it.

    I am here to learn, not to brag.

  8. Another week another flat equity curve, holding at ~15% up on the year. Long SQQQ and a couple of rocket stocks as a hedge going into the weekend. BHSH in effect in small pockets of stocks, and many others are in a shaky slow bull advance.

  9. Wild ending to a violent week. Tailz fund up ~6%, now barely above the index. Landed a haymaker right at the end, after getting smacked around to the point of confusion. Equity curve graph doesn't show the spikes near the end. I was getting ready to quit!

    Then a phat pitch came across the plate and I whipped out the gann fan, triangulated it with a logarithmic spiral, paying heed to the golden rectangle, and bought when the bollinger bandz broke completely in half.

    It was a little like this (skip to 3:00):
