Hey davey-boy -- @Tekkies accused me of having a double standard and felt I was picking on you when others were equally guilty. That's absolutely not true -- I treat everyone with the same (dis)respect. As I was perusing the list of most prolific, annoying posters who pose as gurus (but who contribute nothing of value), I simply went for the lowest hanging fruit. And it was you -- davey-boy...

I love that remark, man! Vincent adopting Emmanuel as his FF handle is the biggest mocking of the judeo-Christian god that there is! Thanks for the laugh!

The dump thread just keeps going and going...

Looks like ToxicFakeTrader has been taking his meds as scheduled and listening to his soothing music as suggested by his psychiatrist, plus has you as his newest zealot to run interference, so he has been able to control himself and not make his usual toxic posts for a couple of days.

He was examining the evidence and came to the correct conclusion.

If you were truly interested in promoting equality, you would be including all of "others were equally guilty' rather than singling out exactly one that met your criteria.

You bias is clear and obvious to others, but likely does not exist in your own view.

Nice that you decided to make all of these recent postings that contribute so much to the topic of Trading Made Simple.

Oh, wait! Hmmmm... looks like your recent posts have zero to do with the subject of this thread. But please, keep 'em coming! It contributes to the daily laughs and reinforces that this has been the Dump Thread for a long time now.

The bane of my Forex trading career "why is it that its when one enters a trading position that the trend ends and reverse on you?"

Reading Tekkies' past posts:

That happens to all traders
"why is it that its when one enters a trading position that the trend ends and reverse on you?"

Can be any of these three reasons.
If anyone know other reasons, let's share and talk about them

davey-boy -- keep it coming, dude... The hole you're digging for yourself is getting deeper and deeper...

To those who care about this thread -- I apologize for the temporary drama. I'm still a rookie compared to most folks here and I've learned from both @Tekkies and @emmanuel7788. I don't mind their squabbling so much because they both post charts in an effort to promote their perspective of what this thread should be about. It's the pompous, righteous SOBs that infect so many threads here that motivate me to skip my senior naps in favor of calling them out. But this will pass -- davey-boy will eventually burn himself out and move on to an easier target. Or, maybe he won't. It's hard to tell with these righteous SOBs what's more important to them -- to move on and save face or to keep trying to convince people they really don't suffer from low self-esteem... Let's see which way it goes...

Thanks for another laugh!

keep it coming, man... The hole you're digging for yourself is getting deeper and deeper.

To those who care about this thread -- robots4me just can't help but add to the drama. He's still a rookie compared to most folks here, and is willing to simply overlook all of the perversions to the thread, mostly via emmanuel7788, that are totally against the wishes of BigE.

He doesn't mind squabbling as long as the squabblers post charts in an effort to promote their perspective of what this thread should be about. However, he has fallen into "promote their perspective of what this thread should be about instead of sticking with exactly what BigE said the thread IS about with explicit statements about things that do not belong in this thread.

He needs to give up his pompous, righteous attitude that infects so many threads and spend more time in his senior nap mode where his subconscious can try to sort out how to present the current reality to his conscious mind. But as long as he is enjoying calling out at least one of the many that meet his heretic criteria, he must give up some of that senior nap time and present equal condemnation for all of the rest. Otherwise, he reinforces the cry of "bigot" with his favoritism.

But this will pass -- he will eventually burn himself out and move on, just as he has done in other threads. Or, maybe he won't. It's hard to tell with this righteous SOB what's more important to him-- to move on and save face or to keep trying to convince people he really doesn't suffer from low self-esteem and prejudice... Let's see which way it goes...

EDIT: Hey man, I see that you Liked this post. Well, really, the Like belongs on your original post, because you made it very easy for me to just to take your own words and show you how well you were describing yourself.

You tend to overcomplicate things.

Traders actually need two things

1) A trading plan
2) The discipline to stick to that plan and hopefully make money over time.

Honestly there is nothing else. But it would be boring right? So we must teach people all these complicated subjective theories about indicators, trends, no trends, what to do, when to do, what not to do.

You've seen exactly what so many others have seen--the ADDITION of indicators, EAs, etc. that is explicitly AGAINST what BigE wanted--that serve to add clutter and confusion as opposed to simplicity and clarity.

But when you need followers, you baffle the masses with BS so that you appear to be so far superior that a huge number of them willingly drink the Kool-Aid and reap the results.

It has been said many times by many others--he needs to open his own thread to teach HIS version of trading and stop the TMS perversion.

Robots rather stop. You want to walk that road by all means do so.
Be prepared to suffer judgment at your own hand for it is written:
"For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."
Well, someone (not me) will judge you on what you post. >(It's the pompous, righteous SOBs)

Stay save and go well.

And so is it any wonder that with purportedly 30 years of trading experience and the last 8 years with TMS that he has FINALLY achieved the BEGINNER'S success rate of 65%?

I would think that even noobs can see that his perversion of TMS with all of the additions and complications has hindered his progress and success rather than helping them, exactly as BigE said it would!

......... I hate to monitor charts anyway. Even if I scalp the market I use 4hr charts with success.... 4hr charts have less noise, less head fakes, less influence by any news. Just has a lot of benefits.......
Do you hate to monitor your charts like the OP?

Well, I use an EA trade manager to monitor and manage my trades. I just need to focus my time and energy to look for the best trade setups and pull the buy/sell trigger for my trade entries.
Expert advisors EAs are great trading tools and have improved over the years with more options which the traders can select based on their Exit Strategy.

There are many EAs trade managers posted by members in this thread. I use SteveHopwood' MPTM and also Caveman' THV CaveManager. Both EAs have been tested by many traders trading live accounts and proven to work.
