Fuck it, too much talk and not enough walk on this forum. I mean, this is the whole point, right, to make a lot of money. This is ultimately how we keep score.

Haha, elbert, I wasn't talking specifically about you. But yeah, why is everyone so quiet about there profits/losses in actual $$? Everyone pretends like they're so scared someone's going to magically steal the money from their trading account if they post a screenshot. I mean, if I know a guy just made over 100k on his last trade, I might pay a lot more attention to what he is saying. Whereas, if you just made $3 on your 21 pip winner, you might want to pipe down and try to learn instead of pretending to be a hotshot.

Granted, you could always use some program to make a fake screenshot, but I think those guys would be pretty easy to spot. Just beware the guys that post screenshots AND have something to sell you!

Also, I might sound mad right now, but I'm not and I really shouldn't talk. I have also spouted off at the mouth in the past, writing like I know something when in reality I should have just shut up. Eventually I'd get a thrashing from the market and I'd shut up and disappear for a while. I didn't post screenshots of profits, because they were miniscule. Learn from my embarrassment, guys!

There are definitely A LOT bigger fish than me! No argument there, but that's BS what you said. At the end of the year, how much did you make, period. One million off of 10,000 pips is the exact same as one million off of 10 pips.

Well, if you understand that I was exactly pointing into that direction, it is not BS! Big lots on a few pips make money, another one has micro lots on a 200 pip runner. This is why cash makes cash. A million of 10 pips or 10 000 pips ... a bit of a difference trading wise. Because technically, trading 10 pips with 1 Lot or 100 Lot is the same.

Not really, man. I could trade a much larger position, but I'm not going for a 7 pip scalp and I don't want to use a 10 pip stop. That's not my style. I'll risk a small % on each trade. If a scalper is trading large lots then it is assumed he must be pretty successful to have gotten to that point, and yeah, I'd be interested to hear his thoughts.

Haha..its all good, man.

This whole thing started because one of the members insinuated that no one in here really knew what they were doing, and I took offense to that.

Alright, off to the gym. I'll catch up with you all later.

This and more tomorrow in a new episode of "Betty Grable, the princess of crazy FX". Spoiler: Betty wants to make out with 5440 to 5480 ish to make her decision ...

Don't think that's necessary. The trade should come first, not this thread!

But hey, if it works for you and you like doing it, rock on.
