As has been mentioned you really ought to preface those remarks with
in my opinion yadda yadda yadda because that is all it is.
It is the TRUTH – the REAL TRUTH and I always speak the TRUTH
Many traders do use "textbook trading" and indicators etc to make quite substantial amounts of money.
Like (someone we know, just in case I am banned again 
) is it, and the private compilations, what a bunch of suckers
I'm sure one such as yourself, who claims to speak the truth, will admit you have not met all or even many traders around the world.
3 – Who are, btw, not TEXTBOOK TRADERS
Probably haven't met all or even many of the famous ones.
As above – but they do not write books on trading, so to you, they are not FAMOUS
So for you to state as truth that one can only gain pittance returns using those methodologies you despise is a statement simply not backed up by fact.
Yeh – I am not the one who has to prove anything – it is the ones who say it is possible who have to prove it – why do you lot continually believe so much rubbish without even asking to see results. And then, along comes Socrates, with many words of real value, and what do you all do, hey SOC, put up or shut up – how ironic!.
Interesting that you admit to not being an expert and yet state over and over that you speak the truth,
Correct – I have met 3 Experts – that is all.
that you could share great knowledge with us all but wont,
Well, if you have not got the intelligence to recognise valuable information, it is your problem, not mine!
that you know how to think properly and therefore hold the keys to the kingdom etc etc etc.
Correct – and it is for ME, because I have learned how I should think, not how I want to think, but then again, you will never be able to understand this, it seems
Further to that, you admit to having been a text book trader and are now claiming it is all rubbish
110% Correct
because you could not make consistant big profits with that kind of methodology.
Yes – and when I changed my way of thinking, guess what happened!
Now, since you are no expert at this "correct thinking game" then one can only assume
ASSUME – I do not assume anything as it is destined to make an ASS of U and ME – but you can assume all you like – which you appear to be doing all of the time :cheesy:
you are not making consistant big profits from it yet.
Well, it depends what you call big profits. Big profits to me, is 2% to 5% per day. It is of no consequence what size you trade at a specific point in time, for if you can’t make 2% to 5% each and every day, you are not thinking correctly. Have I made 2% to 5% per day, consistently, yes, and I have stated it in the past, but then again, you have already admitted that you are lazy and do not do any research – you want to be spoon fed, as the majority will always want
Therefore by your logic it must all be pure rubbish too.
But you see, the normal human brain increases in size when stimulated, but, some peoples’ brain actually shrink a little, the complete opposite to the normal function. This cause them to not think correctly, and by not thinking correctly, they are coming out with statements like you do.
Actually I am yet to see any concrete, scientific evidence that the 95% number bandied about is actually fact and not myth.
Like yeh! – and answer this simple question then, which can be easily calculated from figures released by the Futures CH’s:
Why do the public majority buy options – when 85% of all options expire worthless? Come on then!
No statistical studies, no polls, nothing. In my opinion it is just another number that has been repeated often enough that many accept it as fact.
But that is the whole point – you, and your like, will always think this way, and that is why you will always stay where you are, never to even get a glimpse of what the real trading game is all about. You are blinded by the likes of (someone we know, I need to be very careful!) and his TEXBOOK TRADING – when are you going to realise that it is all a complete load of rubbish, never, it seems like, but then again, History will always repeat itself, until such time as the sun radiates it final glimmer of comfort for mankind.
