You May Wonder?

[Paul71]

Earlier on this year i made a call on the Dow, it was a position call and i took 6630 as my price. At the time it was only £20/pt, that on it's own would have you over 70k in profit today which isn't bad for eight months work, not when you consider that some of the lower paid workers on t2w would have to work a full year for that type of money in some numb skull job. Today i will close that particular position, next year we will choose another single position for the year, we don't want to be working too hard like some kind of market b!tch, do we.

For anyone interested, it is all documented in the, 'Potential Set-Ups' thread.

You actually took that trade? If so, good for you.

There are too many people on here making calls but not taking trades, then later on they are very vocal about the successful ones but hope nobody remembers the ones that make them look like dicks cos overall they'd be down significantly.

Trade it or shut it, I say.

Hey mb325 ...I was on the right lines there was a big bear market rally
but I didn't take the trade

Seriously, Paul, very well done , I remember when you made the call

Was the trigger the DBLHC on the weekly?
Entry is maybe the easier part,... how on earth did you manage the patience to stay in the trade?

I heard it's because he's over 1000 years old and therefore 6months is neither here nor there for him.

Good one Paul - take my hat off to you.

next time it may be clearer if you don't say your target is 250 points

 

[Masquerade]

So are you 70k richer or do you have an imaginary 70k to spend this weekend? I'm a bit confused.

If you held it all this time, post a screenshot!
would be impressive.

Paul

[Shakone]

Very impressive Paul...

 

[Hoggums]

And how much did it cost you in rollover/interest? Where was your stop?

Why didn't you sell in June when it looked like the next downtrend would start?

Guys and girls,

When i posted this thread i thought it may provide food for thought, i thought that the penny may have dropped for some people, but sadly it has not.

One trade, one year and one pay day.

Unfortunately this site seems to be frequented mainly by the, 'noise scalpers', the buzz seekers and the general thrill trader. Keep bettin' boys and girls!:cheesy:

Just show us a screenshot... please.

Look, if i posted a screen shot there would be some gambler with nicotine stained fingers shouting, "fake" "fake" as soon as it hit the screen.....i think we'll leave the screen shot for now.

You forgot to mention;
Apart from the noise scalpers
Thrill traders
Buzz seekers
and gamblers

The lieing traders; Maybe you forgot to count yourself.


Rofl.

The problem with One trade, One year, one pay day...
Is when, you do have a loss its;

One trade, one year, one loss day, no food, divorce, searching the garbage bins, drinking fosters, dieing from coccaine overdose.

The lying traders! Good call. Is this the type of trader who lies to themselves?

"I'm not a gambler, but no way on this earth would i ever get a loan for my trading endeavours"

Yes, the 'lying trader', very good indeed!

It is interesting how many people aren't willing to take trading as a business - its maybe because people see trading as a way to make money without having to be so structured and responsable; Everyone has the mindset of 'I'll get that software when i'm making money, i'll buy monitors when i'm making money';
Maybe its a responsability thing; Or maybe fear - Through commiting investments you are opening up the possibility of failure, or maybe it is doubt that they are good enough to make money anyway.
Or maybe its just a lack of money.

Commitment, responsability, funding, fear.

I like your association between abject poverty and low quality, low strength lager. It doesn't even numb the pain and tastes awful.
