AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH..........FFS........
Is he someone merely posting as a wind up...or is he really terminally stupid? If so, then...
He wins this years prize Tee Shirt
It's a wind up, nobody is that dumb, at least nobody that can read and write.
Come on chaps, there's a hint of useful wisdom behind these two naive questions seeking knowledge.
Why don't more people trade = Why do so few traders succeed? = What are the winners doing that I can learn from?
If it's that good a business model, why aren't more people doing it? = Have I unconsciously optimised my paper trades and back-testing? - and - What will happen to my strategy of it catches on and I start to win big /r if a lot of people start trading it - will it work better or will I be account-closed / will the edge be arbitraged out?
The poster's two innocent (too innocent?) questions point towards some really useful knowledge of trading and of oneself as a trader.

Thank you tomorton someone with sense that responds in a useful and progressive manner. I have found alot of traders attitude to new people to the game as rude they use technical jargon and the min you ask them what does this mean or how or why its like don't ask. Reason I ask these questions are the more people i tell about trading the more they know absolute zilch of it. Cheers Tomorton.

"useful and progressive manner"
Don't like those people.....sound like a bunch of tree hugging, UNREAListic, sandal wearing, armchair eco-warrior, insipid green, supercilious, self-opinionated know-it-all what is best for you, holier than thou, narrow-minded know nothing pseudo lefty Liberal Democrat/Labour narcissitic hypocrites to me.
Other than that I guess they are sort of ok in a decidedly minimalist way.
Actually, no they're not ok in any shape or form, I'm being too kind and generous.

That's me all over of course.
Must go now, just off for a spot of tofu and lentils, then afternoon meditation in the tee-pee.

Nothing personal tomorton ! Just a generalised tribute to the unworldly late unlamented socialist party and their sickly offspring the unliberal democrats.

When you say ALL markets, do I take it that the calculation should include traders at Billingsgate Fish Market, Portobello Road Market, Covent Garden Market and the thousands of small town markets up and down the country ?
My local market is quite small and only trades twice a week with probably no more than 25 traders present at any one time.

Does this include daily markets, Sunday markets only or even car boot sales:?:

With all due respect, Tom, you missed the point altogether
Read through all his other posts...they make you want to bang your head against the wall.

Agree
But then when I went to bed for some reason I thought more about it and now…
I started to think more about and came to the same conclusion as Tomortom
