The questions that Tom T. posed have been on my mind for the past 6 months or so, and I, too, would like to hear your thoughts on them. <br />Please keep posting; I have gotten much out of your blog. Like others have said, you are not responsible for others' bad decisions, and you have helped many.

As far as you are not hard selling anything, you shouldn't be concerned about people not having success, I'm sure you are helping more than hurting.<br /><br />Anyway, in my humble opinion it would also help that you could change somewhat your focus and also will start showin "bad" trades and/or reporting your unsuccessful ones: this may be will state clearly that this is a "game" where success comes in hand with failure and there is no way to avoid it, even for a "master of the trading" as you are. Just my opinion.<br /><br />Thank you for writing and exceus my english: here in Spain we are very good playing football-soccer, but not so good speaking english! :-)FP A distanciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03083326759493880325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9459815.post-49518087102471813642010-10-09T00:37:36.504-04:002010-10-09T00:37:36.504-04:00I would love to hear how prop. trading experience ...I would love to hear how prop. trading experience was different or whether it was better than trading on your own (I know you cannot divulge confidential info but you may be able to relate your experiences and conclusions). I would be interested in your take on the state of certain setups, whether they survived the change in markets, whether you found new ones, what new insights you have today on trading - whether it is still viable to daytrade since one person noted that we are no longer seeing much post gap trending anymore as if all the moves happen pre-market or the first 15 minutes, etc.Tom T.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02931767044700231397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9459815.post-57508361980785131542010-10-08T08:27:57.640-04:002010-10-08T08:27:57.640-04:00Good to hear from you, and I hope for new charts s...Good to hear from you, and I hope for new charts soon.

Your blog has been extremely helpful in learning more about trading strategies and has helped me understand real trading vs. what I learn from trading books. People who love trading will look at your blog as a great reference. Most "Vegas" style traders won't take the time to read your work and fully comprehend what you do. Your blog is a great gift and I implore you to blog again.

This is a delightful surprise. For any possible negatives that might result from your teachings, you can rest assured that they've been extremely OVERbalanced by the knowledge and know-how you've generously imparted. Certainly don't want you to undertake anything you have misgivings about but I fervently hope you do climb back onto the opening gap saddle and soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9459815.post-84380297911244190482010-10-07T11:38:53.843-04:002010-10-07T11:38:53.843-04:00I happened to read the blogs of two guys that supp...I happened to read the blogs of two guys that supposedly were following your system. They were simply losing money because of their own lack of guts and patience when a trade went a few cents against them. They were entering trades based on 15' charts, but were managing the same trades using "15 seconds" bars.<br /><br />Is it your fault that these guys consistently lose money? I don't think so...<br /><br />If you do not want to interact with faceless people, you can move to Facebook and see everybody's faces, but you will lose your own anonymity...Jorgenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9459815.post-68342127778630641022010-10-07T11:16:41.048-04:002010-10-07T11:16:41.048-04:00Glad to hear from you.

I even saved charts to folders according to my own particular "setup types" to compare with my work. The whole extended study session was really enjoyable and the time spent was money in the bank.<br /><br />I know I speak for many when I say you've done good work here.<br /><br />WE WANT MORE :)cluenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9459815.post-20681537597656863702010-10-06T23:29:45.587-04:002010-10-06T23:29:45.587-04:00At long last!
