I strongly agree with Paul's comments. It makes one wonder where these
people, who claim to be professional traders, find the time to indulge in
these extraneous activities. As a professional trader my time is totally
reserved for and consumed by market analysis/research, trading plan
development/enhancement, risk reward analysis, money/account management,
personal trading system development/enhancement, trade entry/exit, stop
analysis/placement, chart analysis and related activities that will enhance
my abilities/skills in trading the markets.
We should reserve our respect for traders who make their profits from
trading the markets and who are willing to freely exchange information about
trading with other traders regardless of the platform involved. If someone
wants to be a chat room administrator, list administrator, newsletter writer
or whatever and charge a fee for that service then, by definition, that is
their chosen profession. If they have chosen an alternate profession other
than trading they should not profess to be professional traders. Life
offers us the opportunity to achieve above average excellence in one
profession at a time. Those of us who consider ourselves to be professional
traders reserve the right to withhold our participation in the activities of
non-professional traders. We must exercise that right and ignore the
unprofessional behavior of those who wish to extract their profits from the
labors of honest hard working professional traders.
Omega-list is supposed to be a platform for professional traders to freely
exchange trading information, ideas and concepts with other professional
traders and to freely assist new folks entering the trading arena. It would
be greatly appreciated if the folks indulging in non-trading professions
would restrict their activities to non-trading platforms. You would not use
the family automobile to transport large appliances great distances so
please do not use our professional trading communications platforms to
advertise your non-trading activities.
