    Yes calling people names and making false acquisitions while hiding behind a made up name on the internet, very manly of you.

    I wonder who to believe: A) a guy hiding behind an anonymous "handle" on the internet, or B) The founder and CEO of a $350million million per year business who was one of the original employee's at Microsoft? My money would be on B), and I'd bet almost anyone else with a brain would put their's in B) too.

    I present to you B): Tom Campbell, the founder and CEO of eSnipe, and former high level exec @ microsoft with is opinion of me: "Brandon is the real deal. I have been the CEO of eSnipe.com, a popular auction services site (we'll process about $350 million worth of eBay bids this year) since the last crash. I bought eSnipe.com in 2000 and it's been very profitable since2001. Before that I was in management at Microsoft. I know where to find smart people and Brandon outshines just about all of them. Brandon is at the very edge of the bell curve in brains, but that's just the start. He's a generous,effective communicator who likes nothing more than to help people succeed. He has already given me a bushel full of profitable ideas. Let me put it bluntly: you;re stupid if you have the chance to work with Brandon and you don't. Take his ideas to the bank, because if you don't, your smartest competitors are going too."

  3. lol, you're really out there aren't you!

    What false 'acquisitions' have I made, do enlighten us :D

    And tell me, which bit of this didn't you quite understand...

    "Internet chat rooms and forums are filled with all sorts of weirdos, you're a classic example, that alone makes the use of pseudonyms a much better idea than giving out personal information, it's just plain common sense and nothing to do with 'cowardice'. On the other hand publishing your real name and personal information is actually pretty stupid, not brave!"

  6. As I predicted, Brandonf said he was completely and totally done on EliteTrader. I said he would return and wondered how many weeks it would take.

    Just shows he needs to continue building his reputation...

    Unfortunately Brandon, people now understand what you are about and won't be snowed constantly...

    Yes I'm seeing that, my evil plot has been foiled. Since Tim ony made $88,000 last month and we are on track to do over 150K this month I might have to be lining up at the welfare office any day now.

  8. Exactly. Great post.

    7,8,9 are harder than hell and frustrating at that.

    Down markets and up markets are usually never uniform BUT you can usually tell the way the market will fall/go up, by the path it previously took to get there.

    That's one of the reasons why I don't trade the same vehicle day after day. On strategy I use (although nothing too earth-shattering)....I go over daily time-frames and look for areas that should have opportunities. Typically stocks and currencies.

    The idea here would be to switch markets. Get out of currency all together and trade something else if you need to. There are plenty of things moving. Hell, look for markets trading near highs or lows (this will hopefully steer you clear of choppiness).


    The less time spent on the computer the better. Whatever your strategy. If you're daytrading, adjust your "winners" to take advantage of longer time-frames...... That's just one way to do it.

  9. lol perfect. It depends on the result of the trade. I've got a PM for you. I don't entirely agree with this :). You may see it differently though.

  10. I got it, thanks.

    I agree, you can do what you like with a winning trade (as long as it's not allowed to turn into a loser), I was more referring to losing trades.
