Because George Soros was 70-something years old when subscription websites were invented?

Darkstar writes websites and sells subscriptions, Soros writes books and sells copies of them. It's fundamentally the same thing - both are profiting by making you pay for the insight and knowledge they have. The main difference is that Soros was born about 50 years before Darkstar, so the web format wasn't available to him for most of that time. (Now that it is, I see Soros uses his websites to promote his books).

But I suspect your question is rhetorical, and you already have your blinkers on ..... if so, please ignore any information which challenges your preconceptions and continue your merry little crusade.

But Darkstar does. Ideas anyone?
I read Darkstar's book 'Order Flow Trading for Fun and Profit' about 3 years ago. For something like $150, it saved me from having to wade my way thru a whole lot of highbrow academic papers on market microstructure, and also provided a couple of setups to add to my trading arsenal. Admittedly I don't use these now, but I'm more knowledgeable for having read the book. I have maybe 30-40 trading books and I'd rate Darkstar's in the top 10. Hence I regard it as money well spent.

I don't know how Darkstar's subscription service works, but I expect that his knowledge could provide aspiring traders with a piece of the puzzle -- a different perspective to the 'conventional' TA that's trundled out by well-known educators like Steve Nison or Raghee Horner -- and help them with the next step of their trading journey.

I know that paid-for education is a controversial topic, and that there are folk who believe that you can become a trading millionaire merely by reading babypips.com or a few systems threads here at good ole FF. Maybe they're right, but personally I'm happy to spend money -- within reason -- to gain some fresh strategies or perspectives from folk whom I believe know what they're talking about. Admittedly I'm much more selective in what I buy nowadays, than I was when I started out around 10 years ago.

wow. So, according to your theory that nobody can be better or smarter than yourself (a miserable failure) Mr. Soros is doomed to lose all his money? Have you informed him of this? I'm sure he would appreciate this information - maybe you can send him a couple of emails every day for the next .... I dunno, five years .... telling him he is playing a losing game and he is destined to fail. Because you failed, therefore he will too. Everybody here just loves hearing it.

Do you even realize how stupid you sound with this shit sometimes? I know people don't generally detect their own stupidity .... like smelling your own BO .... but sometimes, when the wind blows just right you must surely get a whiff of it, don't you ever re-read one of your posts and say to yourself "wow, I really am a fucking tool"?

"Mr Soros is doomed to lose all hos money". Of course he is, if he follows any recommendations by Jim Martens and all like him (:

The fact that you seem to get your knickers in a twist from reading my posts tells me you are in the "anger phase".
You don't know it yet, but soon you will reach the "acceptance phase" and you will come to terms and accept what a dismal losing game this is.
You will move on. And you will be better for it.

You seem completely incapable of envisaging any scenario other than you being right about everything - if you're wondering why you still can't trade, there's a big clue. Here's another clue - people who assume/insist that their problems must have an external source, very rarely succeed at anything worthwhile.

You've been here five years, constantly crying and snivelling that the forex is unfair, trying to knock down anyone who even gets close to any kind of success, and trashing every thread in which you find experienced traders trying to help people. And every time somebody tells you to fuck off, you assume they are angry and frustrated at their own lack of success. I've seen a lot of people project their own shortcomings onto others but boy, you are a really extreme (and painfully obvious) example.

My knickers aren't in a twist - far from it

i have a couple of questions for mr darkstar, regarding his website http://predatortradinggroup.com

first, that is a very serious domain name, very impressive!

now, might you have any properly audited reports that clearly show your most recent years of trading success at this predatortradinggroup.com company?

hint: these documents should be plainly viewable on your website, so i am confident that you will be able to easily provide a link to said documents.

i wait patiently, mr darkstar predator trading...

your friend,

james.

if mr darkstar is able to produce a properly audited or otherwise valid statement that is genuine and it provides us with numbers that are the kind of trading results that one might expect from a firm that operates under a agressive company name such as predator trading group, or he cant.

notice in the video in the previous post how mr bernard madoff is so comfortable telling the audience how his team works magic to make profits for bernard madoff investments company!!!!!!!!!

it is my opinion that almost every single book seller for trading topics is little more than some regurgitated bullsht that any of you could assemble by visiting the top trading forums and websites.

george soro's book, on the other hand , is probably a story of a trader that HAS ACTUALLY GOTTEN RICH VIA TRADING!!

i am quite sure that darkstar IS UNABLE TO PRODUCE AN AUDITED REPORT OF HIS SUCCESS VIA HIS COMPANY http://predatortradinggroup.com

somebody that really operates a successful prop trading group will have a couple of things to show, WHICH I AM PRETTY MUCH SURE THAT MR DARKSTAR WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PRODUCE:

1) a list of his successful traders that have made sizable fortunes while trading at his prop trading company.

2) some kind of nfa registration or previous tax returns or something valid and unquestionable proof that he runs anything more than a sham scam bullsht book selling crap.

kindly,

james h bullsht.

i just went to darkstar's website, http://orderflowtrading.com and it is really a seriously bad joke.


there was a link to click on if i wanted to learn about orderflowtrading and it just asks me to register an account and then it plops down a paypal form and requests FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS FROM ME!!!!!!!!!!

this is entirely such bullsht.

at least he is labelled as a commercial member, lol..

he is simply fishing for fools and their money... cuz i can just look at him and just tell that he is entirely a bullsht artist and that he does not look like a person that has the analytical abilities to trade ever.

what a foolish move for forexfactory to even allow crap like him to exist..

good luck.

darkstar states that orderflowtrading means that traders take advantage of price changes that exist because of other traders placing trades?

wtf?

he actually claims to be able to detect other trader's orders?

be serious.

and he is gonna charge me five thousand dollars to show me how to trade based on other trader's trades?

first, it is literally impossible to get any kind of VOLUME INDICATOR or trade flow or whatever...

IN CURRENCY, THERE IS NO LEVEL TWO OR WHATEVER....

go read the manual again, darkstar...

maybe darkstar will soon be changing his name to douchedstar..

he is quite simply claiming things that just simply are not possible.

he is lying thru his teeth.

hint: one quick SHOUT on his profile page that notifies anybody to not give to him 5k might just save some innocent dumbphk from wasting 5k on this dufus.

there is no way that he is a competent trader: http://forexfactory.com/darkstar

happy trading.
