$500 to $5,000 per day DayTrading

I can say he had tears running down his face when he presented his story, if anyone takes the time to read through his site or better still meet him in person it will be made abundantly clear why he is teaching others. It's more than money for this guy...

I thought the forum was open to conversation and possibly a discussion about trading, if people didn't ask any questions there would be nothing to talk about. Lose the chip on the shoulder, life and trading can't be that rough for you... or maybe it can. YIKES.

Why do people always resort to this stupid jibe? In a sense, the return from trading over the last month (9.2%) is a bit rough - because it's lower than the 10.6% I got the month before. I can go on if you like.

Now I know that for people like you who take gurus seriously, results like those must seem very poor - you guys aren't interested in such modest returns, no doubt preferring "thousands of pips a month" etc. But back in the real world, I'm actually very pleased with things, so you'll have to think of a different explanation for my baseless cynicism.

It's utter stupidity to give anyone 15k for anything trading related just because he promises to give you a trading system that will make you rich. Its just like sending money to a Nigerian General just because he promises to send you a few million in commission in return.

If you cant see that then you are about to learn a very hard lesson in how this industry operates.

Erm, you do know that Howard blew up (very quickly) in exactly the manner that the "mob" predicted, don't you?

That the penniless detractors were proved to be absolutely correct? That their arguments were cogent, well-reasoned and in fact well-known to those who actually understood options.

As for interviews, have a closer look. Most of them are with vendors of some description and are actually just adverts. Pboyles isn't selling anything.

Look - if you trade both ways, there is zero edge in that

I'll see your zero edge and raise you negative edge.

Howard Cohodas, was a true gentleman and a trading visionary

Hear, hear.

What the f*ck do those Black and Scholes fellows know eh? It's all just theoretical maths pish-posh. The proof of the pudding is in the eating as they say and while Howard was no options pricer, he was one helluva saucier. Using his own never before seen, attempted or disproved recipes, he commenced in setting a veritable banquet of options for consumption by those mere mortals with no purpose built cog pits ... err I mean trading dashboards to call their own.

Whether he'll be immortalised in Market Wizards, the Michelin guide of the trading world, remains to be seen as of yet. But... on a wing and a prayer... I'm sure they'll see the man for what he is... as you say... A true visionary.

Here's to you, Howie. Wherever you are!*

I have it on very good authority that Mr. Cohodas deliberately ended the account

Why:?:The man had already proved his point and so no longer needed to have any open ends:!:That is the simple truth of the matter

Balck Scholes:?:Option pricers:?:For all their supposed intelligence and genius, all that they could come up with time-over was the fact that Mr. Cohodas had no edge Oh yes, and that at some point(very precise, i'm sure)Mr. Cohodas would inevitably 'blow up'

:idea:Not one detractor could give an exact time though:idea:

:?:I wonder why:?:

All that i can say is that Mr. Cohodas, enjoys an exceedingly lavish lifestyle with the profits from his system. I do hope that you also have such a lifestyle:clover:

That is all:!:

Even in the morass of foolishness that is T2W, that post stands out for it's stupidity and inaccuracy.

No mean feat, and one that you are to be applauded for.

Thanks for another great post.

I can see you've put a great deal of effort into and must be very pleased with the result - it is even better than your usual standard.

I won't detain you any longer as I am sure that on a fine day such as this you would prefer to be outside pursuing your hobby.

So let me just leave you with one final thought.

P.S. :cheesy: :clap: :| :smart: :innocent: :whistling :-0 :idea: :?: :!: :clover: etc etc etc

Goodness that was amusing. So much better than facts, reason or wit.

I wish you well.

It wasnt really surprising that people where fooled by Howard.

Lets not forget that T2W actually went as far as commissioning and publishing an interview with the man, and whatever way you look at it, that interview gave him additional credability.

Beyond belief really, and although its been air brushed out of history, thats what happened.

I would of thought T2W publishing him would be an the best indication that it was going to go horribly wrong? There's what? 3 good articles?
