yep people will be guided by people like you as you represent the site, or what ever you do. and thats a crying shame as they will never make anything of themselves listening to people like you. there is a handfull of real traders on this site, trading for a living on big account, just a handful. people like you destroy anything they add to the site.
Two points:
1. I go out of my way to invite constructive criticism regarding anything I do with my official T2W hat on - e.g. Stickies. Most of the stuff I produce has been vetted by at least two other experienced traders to ensure that no major clangers have slipped through the net. Additionally, I am very careful not to present just my own views, but to present the wider views of the trading community. If you feel that anything I've produced needs changing because it contains wrong or misguided information, then please tell me and I will correct it immediately.
2. If you can come up with ANY other members of the site - regardless of whether they're experienced pros or complete newbies who feel that what I'm doing is damaging to the site in the way that you describe, then I urge you - and them - to give me the opportunity to put things right, i.e. point one, above. Obviously, if I'm unco-operative and nothing is done, I suggest you contact Sharky. He will, doubtless, take appropriate action as he obviously does not want staff who are damaging to the site in the way that you imply.
you may be able to beat me in an argument of linguistics and who can get there point over better, i suck at that. but the fact remains you are wrong, and you can claim im missing the point but the points you have made are ALL incorrect.
Thanks for the compliment. As for you, I care about what you say, not the way that you say it. The problem with the 'I'm right - you're wrong' argument Roth' is that I can say exactly the same about you! The whole point of a site like T2W is that we exchange ideas and learn from one another. I'm very happy to listen to you and learn from your experiences and, if I'm convinced that you're right and I'm wrong, I WILL come out and say so. One thing I won't do is to call you silly names and make silly threats simply because you don't share my views. Are there any circumstances under which you feel you could respond in kind?
try addressing your comments regarding the tick showing equities making lowers highs when i have proved this to be total gibberish?.
The chart speaks for itself and needs no further commenbt from me. Perhaps you would care to explain why the Tick is clearly making lower highs while the ES is making higher highs?
maybe if you actually listened to me you would learn something, maybe make a few extra quid.
As I've already stated, I'm very happy to listen to you and if you can help me make a few extra quid - I'd be very grateful! But, all I ask is that you stop being offensive and show me a fraction of the respect I have for you. Is that really such a big ask?
all you have done is claim i am missing your point, which is a classic trick for anyone who has been proven wrong, along with nit picking at grammar etc.
If you've read any of my 2,500 plus posts on T2W, you'll soon gather that I don't go in for games, riddles and tricks. I leave that to 'The Expert' and his ilk. You do indeed appear to be missing my point but, luckily, a solution is at hand, kindly provided by Fulcrum Trader in his excellent post. So, ignore me and read that instead. He provides greater clarity and detail in a single post than I've been able to provide in a dozen or so efforts.
anyway frankly i don't know why i get caught up in these slagging matches with total rank amateurs, i couldn't care less if you don't know what your doing, more money for me at the end of the day i guess.
Your definition of an amateur appears to be someone who doesn't agree with you. Well, by that definition, then yes, I am indeed a rank amateur. Of the two of us, you appear to engage in rather more of these 'slagging matches' than I do. One reason for this might be that most people on T2W are idiots and fools etc. Have you considered any other possible explanations?
que your post of claiming i cant see the tree's for the forrest, and bears **** in the woods and bla bla without actually addressing anything.
You've made it plain that simply because I have a different opinion to you that I'm a fool, an idiot, a rank amateur and various other things besides. That's fine. And, to be fair, I don't claim to be the sharpest tool in the box. Sadly, most - if not all - of the ideas that I contribute regarding the way the markets function aren't my own. Additionally, as you correctly point out: "
there is a handful of real traders on this site, trading for a living on big account, just a handful." I happen to know that Fulcrum Trader falls into this very category and that, broadly speaking, he is more aligned to my way of thinking on this issue than to your way of thinking. If everybody but everybody agreed 100% with your position, then I'd be concerned. But, as his post demonstrates, this isn't the case. Call me all the names you want if that makes you feel better but, in the event that you decide to address the points made by Fulcrum Trader, please afford him the respect he deserves, even though he's expressed a view that is in stark contrast to your own.
Tim.
