Agree 100%. There's a certain ET member who seems to inject himself into and subsequently derail threads with his extreme rage and negativity, with never any intelligent or helpful trading advice. Maybe there have been personal issues in that member's childhood. Or maybe its a bad marriage or something. But I gotta say, after being a good ET member for the past 13 years and having seen all types of contributors, it turns my stomach every time this particular person rears his head.
Because a high IQ is something you are LUCKY to be born with - ‘a gift’ - and one should be grateful and not let pride make them think they are above anyone. Like the OP and that other smart ass seem to think. You know who you are.
I used to have fun reading and trying out some of the articles' code listings on "Stocks and Commodities" like it was an old 8/16bit hobby computer mag. Don't know how high "iq trading" is that. But maybe better than average or those who blindly followed "wizetrade".
I don't think you two are in all that much disagreement. I find discussing your own IQ to be in poor taste. But alas, IQ is some kind of standard, as much as I hate it.
