I'm new here but that is exactly when I knew we was being trolled. Saw news about a money manager named Paul Tudor Jones on CNBC yesterday. Do you think longandshort is Paul Tudor Jones? Me neither.
I don't think that retail traders can't make money. Plenty can. Most just have no clue how markets actually function and work, because they are learning how to trade from non-experts gurus. I put together a basic primer for people to get foundational knowledge from real sources, not some shady youtuber with a "self taught" background (Elite Trader School | Elite Trader). Clearly people here are passionate and interested in trading. The discussions and ideas generated here could be quite impressive and useful for someone like me. However, it won't get there if people keep their eyes on a chart instead of spending time to analyze the underlying drivers of volume and price.
what proof do i have that you are not mad? if you do not like brooks do not use him i have used him for 15 years and i will continue
You have admitted that you are one of the 95% via the profit/loss statements. https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/tribute-to-brooks.355246/page-107#post-5476374 You have been "using him for 15 years", you are reduced to micro lots on FX, and you do not make money. Maybe it is time to try something different? Maybe it is time to abandon the "Brooks method"? 15 years is a long time, man.
