I don't actually trade futures but I do buy metals in the traditional manor and have made good money. the reason I want to say that straight out is to illustrate the fact that I am certainly not an expert in this field but I am aspiring to be.
As with all people trying to get into trading the initial impetus is to make smart money, I have noticed that many experienced traders seem to eventually become immersed in the lifestyle or scene as well (this is trivial for the moment). Its only natural at this stage that I am looking for predictive software at this point. I'm far too cynical to believe in a holy grail, yet I'm logical enough to think that there has to be something out there that could help me analyse the markets I wish to trade. so I began looking and found VantagePoint Trading Software amongst others. the testimonial video with the fake golf course in the background was enough to make me spew cynical remarks at my laptop but I keeping an open mind I looked to see what you lot had to say. What I found verified my gut feelings and I think that all together the sentiment is; scam!
Heres the thing though; while reading peoples opinions I came across a remark made by Mr. Charts US Trader, Coach and Mentor. He said this; “vendors would not sell a system that worked but would trade it themselves, wouldn't they?” for me this seems to be the big question that arises with software and systems, and I see it come up again and again.
He then went on to say:
“In all my years of trading and coaching 1-2-1 it never ceases to surprise me that most people waste half their lives searching for the Holy Grail of trading. It doesn't exist. What exist are methods and techniques that will earn you a damn good living and build up your capital week after week, month after month.” I agree with both of these comments. They are simple words that aim to quantify what’s involved in trading through having lateral and discerning views. BUT. If we are to be lateral and discerning ask your self this philosophically.
If a trading system or programme exists that is brilliant it would either be kept secret and used to benefit those who had it or it would become very popular and be used by many many traders. This is something that I don’t want to believe but rationally you just have to admit it. If we admit that then the next thing to question is the likes of Mr. Charts US Trader, Coach and Mentor. Why would anyone who had the ability to understand the markets bother their **** teaching people to make money. It utterly defies logic that they wouldn’t be skiing down a slope in Italy with a magnificent Russian woman right now. I’m really not having a go at anyone here and I don’t want to be Darwin at a creationist party, but the question is why would anyone make money for you or I?
If any one has come across something along these lines that is helpful and proves it self through a trial or history please tell me.
Thanks.
