You are followed by Padu and Nobert, and you follow Padu and Nobert. You are suspect. Ergo, your comments are completely invalid. Your profile is abby normal. And nobody in ET in the current era knows who or what "balcka" is.
One of the first posts I read on ET was you giving it to Padu. I remember he Traded for 11 years, still couldn't turn a profit, but was giving advice to read Al Brooks books. Thankfully @Scataphagos was a good soul and taught Padu Support n Resistance.
I keep my profile private, period. I didn't block you on ET though. Whether I have followers or not shouldn't be a factor in your decision to listen to me or not. If you feel what I said made sense, listen to me if you think I was out to lunch, don't listen to me. Honestly I am neither flattered nor offended either way. There is no popularity contest here for the number of followers that a member has, as far as I know. We are all here for two things, 1) to socialize and de-stress and 2) to learn from each other.
Me, personally though, I don't like to listen to one person like a mentor sort of thing although that seems to be the norm in the financial world. All the financial gurus were all groomed or mentored by somebody and etc. That's not me. I like to do my own research, do my own calculations, make my own observations and etc. Along the way, I come on here and if I see some really insightful information, I take note, study it and incorporate it into my trading if I see fit. And I do the same here. If I found something or observed something that I thought is worthwhile for me to share, I will post it here. I welcome suggestions and questions and criticisms about my observations (but not about me personally). That's how I operate.
Trading is like this: The Schitt Family Tree Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt." Now you can intellectually handle the situation. Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, a partner of Kneedeep &. Schitt Inc. In turn, Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple produced 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins: Deep Schitt and Dip Schitt. Against her parents' objections, Deep Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school drop out. After being married 15 years, Jack and Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married Mr. Sherlock, and because her kids were living with them she wanted to keep her previous name. She was known as Noe Schitt-Sherlock. Dip Schitt married Loda Schitt and they produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt. Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt were inseparable throughout childhood and subsequently married the Happens brothers in a dual ceremony. The wedding announcement in the newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse. Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He recently returned from Italy with his new bride, Piza Schitt. So now if someone says, "You don't know Jack Schitt", you can correct them. Not only do you know Jack, you know his whole family. To which I replied: "Actually, Jack Schitt is a character in Jasper Fforde's Eyre Affair and Lost in a Good Book. So I can proudly say I knew Jack before you knew Schitt." Once you can understand the above, you don't give a shit about other traders, you trade your plan.
Hello Darc, I have got alot of help on ET, just ask questions. I believe in asking questions and getting the help I need or a possible answer to when I'm having a problem with. Just start a new thread and ask whatever questions you have for free. It's not about who is making the real money, it's about having a problem and finding the right answer for yourself. Us traders need consistent solutions mentally and confident building. We need support. I'm getting to the point in my trading career that 1 small little help, can improve my trading edge.
