Steve replies:
Your attitude has already created the largest distraction this list has
seen over the last few months (since Gary OJ has left). Some "real
traders" have been trading many "real markets" (not just four) since
"B.D." (before disco).
I've shared innovative systems and approaches with many kind traders
(mostly, on the MetaStock forum) for the last couple of years. Attached is
a gif of a custom formula called the Kaleidoscope and another gif of a
systematic approach to the Cocoa market that has chalked profits on 20 of
the 30 trades this year.
If you want me to "share" these formulas, approaches and my twenty five
years of research with you...you are going to have to stop insulting me and
fellow list members. Arrogance is not a good substitute for confidence.
Try to realize that many of the people who "lurk" on this list were "real
traders" before you were born.
Some own seats on the exchanges, some are CTA's, some are brokers, but none
have ruffled feathers like your recent posts have.
Cut the crap and people will help you...continue to dribble and you will
suffer isolation and insults. Your ability to accumulate additional
knowledge from list members is probably directly proportionate to how you
are perceived on the list. If I were you, I would start doing "damage
control". Try blowing kisses to the list.
Happy Trades,
Steve Karnish
