Trading is for dumb people

  1. I mean what about trading is s difficult? What do you need to understand trading, not much. The market either goes up, down or sideways and that you can see if you look at where the market is coming from. what about that is difficult. I do not understand the fuss about mathematical theories, waves and rest of bull.

    I think those trying to tell us that the failure rate is high are people who failed trying to complicate simple things. Uneducated people fare better at trading than those trying to tell us that you need this formula and this theory.

    The best things in life are simple, or maybe there is really nothing common about common sense.

    I am a microbiologist by career and trade as a hobby. I trade with only 2 indicators, RSI and MACD and nothing else. and what I do is very simple. It takes me 2 seconds to see if I can trade or not by just wacthing this 2 indicators. 2 seconds! I do not have bragging rights to this business, but I have been trading for 5 years now. Still using the same old technic. Nothing has changed. Recently I have discovered that it is also very easy to trade the news, with subscription to news service. Watching by people trying to fleece others, claiming they have the secret, I can do so and earn more money, because I win 8 out of 10 trades. But no need.

    Trading is simply and VERY easy.

    If it's so easy, why do the majority of traders lose and close up shop?
     
  7. Dear Friend,

    of the, son of Mr. Laurent Kabila. I presume you are aware there are
    financial dispute between my family (THE MOBUTU) and the present
    civilian Government. This is based on what they believe as bad and
    corrupt governance on my late father's part. May his soul rest in
    perfect peace.

    You may have heard how a lot of my father's bank account in Switzerland
    and North America has been frozen. Following the outlined reasons, I am
    soliciting for your esteemed organization's confidential assistance to
    take custody of Ten Million United States Dollars (US$10,000,000.00) and
    also to front for my family in the areas of business you consider
    profitable.

    This Consignment containing the funds have secretly been concealed and
    deposited with a Diplomatic Security firm where it can easily be taken
    delivery of by a recommended beneficiary. The consignment containing the
    funds were shipped as diplomatic items of high values and will be
    released to you by the Security firm based on my recommendations on that
    note; you will be presented as our partner who will be fronting for me
    and my family in any subsequent ventures.

    I and my mother have decided to give 25% to you for your assistance if
    you are able to help us claim this consignment, 5% for any expenses that
    may be incured during this transaction, and the remaining 70% for my
    family.

    Please, I need your entire support and co-operation for the success of
    this business ventures, your utmost confidentiality and secrecy is
    highly required, due to my family's present predicament. I am presently
    in the refugee camp here in the Netherlands under the United Nations

    private email address only for now.

    I sincerely will appreciate your acknowledgement as soon as possible, as
    I intend to leave the asylum procedure once the consignment is in your
    possession.

    God bless you as I await your uegent response.

    I entirely agree with you that trading is very easy due to the fact that everyone can start to trade with a very short learning time, but handle its result is tough or consistently successful trading is very difficult to master.

    The lack of clarity in your statement is just confirming that Wall Street's reality is exactly the opposite of that statement. You deny to yourself or you must be working for Wall Street firms to come up with something like that... remember your role is to promote the trading to the public and sell your service.

     

  10. Hi Snoop,
    that is excatly what I am at. Everything has to have some perfectness. We look for the right word, the right order, complete with it's tenses. In the meantime what we wanted to achieve could have been done in simplicity
