  1. Careful Nickel, don't hurt yourself with words you looked up on www.websters.com

  2. Your answer was posted long ago. You are a pretender taking up space on the site. Learn to trade, or if that is not an option, you may want to get a job in a field related to trading. One thing for sure, with your attitude, you will never make a dollar.

    For the record, a program trade his the ES market at exactly 12:11am today. I posted the trade with an associate who works at ET as a moderator. I entered and exited for a modest profit. Interested traders (Nickelscraper, you can go back to whatever you do all day), can look at a chart with 5 min bars to see this one. You will notice a slight runup (that is the start of the short trend) that preceeded the trade. The program trade lasted for exactly 1 minute. This is typical of this type of programatic activity.

    Good luck

    "I'm looking for someone so dumb enough to post a trading entry and exit method in plain text, complete with live real market trades to prove that the method works."

    We the mighty and stoic Scalper Nick and Rollinsurfer hold sway over you lowly ET members, and your claims aren't worth jack until you post something that we shall evaluate for purely academic reasons and for the sake of intellectual honesty.

    LOL

    This thread is hysterical. Never thought I'd laugh so much on this board.

    Come on folks what part of don't feed the monkeys do you not get?

    You've got nothing to prove. If I were you I'd get the moderator to take off whatever you gave him. Even if you had to give an example out, have you thought about the fact that Hanketsurfer has not posted 1 example in 110+ pages here?

    why give to people who have nothing to share in return?

    Unless dealing with strangers is something you don't mind, of course.

  5. Another in a large bowl of limp-noodle posts from Lefty.

    When are you going to step up to the plate?

  6. Apparnently, folks are either so naive or so much in need of something to do that they are willing to "feed the monkeys". The result is over 100 pages of crap. This is predictable, as crap is what you get when you feed the animals. :D

    Again, the answer was posted. When will you step up rookie. So far you havent even taken your first swing at a pitch. None of us have seen you take a trade. I am guessing that you live in you mother's basement. I will bet you have no account, and you clip coupons to buy your groceries. Give us all a break.

    As for your ridiculous comment, I have posted an example of a program trade. You on the other hand post nothing but worthless crap. Wake up. Find another game. This one is over

  7. There's no need to reveal secrets. Any system would do. Not your best, not even your second best. Anything that demonstrates the possibility of price trend trading.

  9. (Caution: To clear up some apparent confusion, the challenge question is posted again below. Anyone who is offended by this material should avert their eyes and scroll past it or direct their browser elsewhere.)

    What is a reliable method that can be applied to past price action to forecast, before a prospective trade, a profitably large positive or negative number d such that (p1-p0)=>d, where p0 is the current market price and p1 will be a marketable price in the near future?

    I'm looking for an answer to be posted here in plain text form. The proof of the answer is also to be posted here, as real time trading calls that specify on what basis the proposed method is being invoked.

    Now listen up you royal idiot

    Any system that demonstrates the possibility of price trend trading by yielding profitability after slippage and transaction costs, is not worth posting on a board like this, and should be kept, .... yes, you guessed right, a secret.

    LOL

    I'd say that even if breaks even after slippage and transaction costs and still proves price persistence, it would not be worth posting here, since those variables can be improved on, with enough time.

    Comprende?
    Pige?
    T'as compris?
    Got that einstein?


    Man, its hard not to feed the monkeys

    Hahah!
