since we know that all trading courses are bullshit, what would you actually look for in one?

    You cannot remove bias based on how traders think. So, you could give a trading system that works but, in the hands of another trader, it fails miserably. Each trader has their belief system which like it or not affects their results.

    ...And if it's truly a system, then you can code it. If you can code it, then the code does not/will not care about on whose computer it is run. Period.

    Now that said, it is not *necessary* that every system be coded -- it is only necessary that you *trade* it that way. That you *execute* it that way -- "according to the rules" and all that.

  3. bottom line classes dont teach u to trade profitably but they can show u how to trade and of course all of these can be found online or in books virtually for free but sometines seeing someone else do it or say it means more than words in a book. i personally never took a class and i didnt read enough books. i just kept throwing money at it until i found sonething that worked to trade out of distribution samples since at the end of the day it is truly a random walk.

    If you know all trading courses are bullshit then WHY would you still look for one? LOL This does not make sense.

    Do the studying and research yourself, keep practicing and you will succeed. There, that will be $1000 please. :)

    Thousands of traders have followed me on youtube, my TASC articles and Moneyshow appearances. I've been trusted by active traders worldwide since '99 for good reason.

    I don't 'grab money' from anyone; I deliver outstanding trader training, which is why I have so many live room subscribers and course buyers. Who happily choose to stay subscribed.

    My live room offers a generous $7 three-week trial; it's 197/month or 997/year.

    Really Ken? Are you not stretching the truth a bit. I just checked YouTube and your latest video has been up for 23 hrs and has 12 views. Humbled trader on the other hand posted a video a day ago and has 27,000 views and Warrior trader is streaming and has 12,000 views.

    Goldenberg-Hehmeyer had something like a dedicated three month training class all their new traders were required to attend, and GH wanted their traders to all trade the same system. And there were group leaders that rode herd on all the traders.

    And still, quite a few traders washed out.

    Apparently, some people take tasks more seriously and work harder than other people, and some people are more apt to be good at taking on calculated risk as compared to others.

    IF a legit (Big IF on legit) instructor/mentor invests time and proprietary IP in a client - and the client was passive and nonchalant about it, how is that fair to the instructor?

    I have "taught" half-a-dozen persons to trade. Male; female; younger; older; educated; not. They all made money while under observation. And they all lost money out on their own, to the degree that they thought they "got it."

    The ones that were scared and kept going over fundamentals lasted longer, made more.
    The ones with early (or outrageous) success blew up spectacularly.
    There was no discernible correlation to their background -- only how much work they put in *and*continued* to put in.

    I love teaching -- but like so many others, I won't participate/enable disaster. Uh-uh, no how, no way. No more. I don't even post half-so-much on ET anymore: quips; "Like"(s); small rants.

    "Meh!" :wtf::confused::cool:
