  2. He sounds a bit like Ray on Everybody Loves Raymond. I can just imagine Debra looking on with a rolling pin at the ready.

  3. Why is this video so f**kin funny, because all traders have been there. Did you ever buy when you meant to sell, or put on a futures contract without a stop only to watch it plunge 2-3 handles. I know the first words out of my mouth are f**k, f**k,
    f**k, multipy this by all the bad fills, errors and market makers picking your pocket over the years; well you get the idea. Those dang computers stick and fail at the worst possible times. Thanks ET for making my week!!:)

    Regardless of who produced the video, there is no way in hell i could even recommend my worst enemy to train with this guy.. I mean this guy was losing it when he is supposed to be "teaching."

  7. no decresionary trader wins 100% of the time. its admiral (and funny) that they left in the negative trades and fat finger mistakes in a training video. id say seeing real errors and bad trades in an unedited video is much more educational than seeing an edited clip of an 'expert' teacher correctly guessing a market movement (and not seeing the 3 other attempts that went against them).

    analogy: how useful would a 'how to play poker' video be if the 'teacher' never has a losing hand in it.
