    It is apparent that my understating of the function of an IT pro is in correct,

    (I may not be see or saying this right, but I thought the badge system, comes with some responsibility, and merit. (depending on the one that you hold, people must meet cretin qualification, and be approved by other members that holds certain status on this form.)

    and you mean to tell me that you don't see yourself as an instructor. You are, you have a mentoring service. That makes you an instructor. Maybe not one for informed trades. But you are an instructor. SO what and how you say things, matter. kicks or no kicks, To new and visiting traders.


    But if you don't see that people like me value your opinions and you don't feel your words hold great weight in the minds of visitors. that is ashame!

    I will not reply to other stuff, only you know the motives of your heart for what you do and how you do it, not for me to question.

    all I know is how it appears to be coming across to me. and maybe that was do, to not understanding the role of an IT pro.

    AND like you said the boss is ok with it, so why should I question it?

    you will here no more from me on this!

    but I want you to know I always have and will have mad respect for you.

    Hi Ek,

    Well for starters I love your market commentary. I watched literally every video you posted on youtube last night. In some of your videos you mentioned how the price action and volume gave you insight to the trading activity of the bulls and the bears. Where did you learn how to analysis the price action? I know that you mentioned a few books in your autobio, but are there any must reads you would suggest for beginners? Looking forward to your future posts.

    I am new to trading and would like to start out part time. I haven't yet performed a trade. I am looking to learn from someone who has traded and would be willing to help me get started.

    nice thanks!

    Do you use time charts as well (5,15,60 minute) for different set-ups or are all of your intra-day trades based of tick charts?

    Hey EK,

    I trade the TF on TOS as well, I was curious what 2 moving averages you use for that intra-day set-up you have the video of?

    Thanks!
    Clint

Hi guys,

Thanks for checking out my blog.

Tonight I went out and met with a group of traders. I think having traders as friends really helps you stay sharp. Every person in the video is a trader. One of the guys is an ex- floor trader. Two of them manage funds. One guys is an ex-fund manager, and the rest of them just trade their own accounts. I meet with this particular group about once a month and I have another group I meet with once a week on Wednesdays. First we...

Hi guys,

Thanks for checking out my blog and seeing what I'm doing

Today I wanted to talk about money management, emotional control and upping the ante. In my opinion, these things tied together will make or break your trading.

*Losing more money than you expect to lose or making more money than you expected to make is the first thing that makes you psychologically weak when it comes to trading. It's about being honest with yourself about how much you...

Hi traders,

Thanks for checking out my bog and seeing what i'm doing. I appreciate the love, the hate, the comments and support.

I normally don't put out another video this soon but i just felt inspired and I had nothing else better to do. Since it seems to be a fairly popular topic as of late. I figured I'd go ahead and throw in my analysis of the Euro....

Hi Traders,

Thanks for checking out my blog...

I entered a (short) trade on the Euro FX based on what the chart and volume where telling me. after the trade became profitable, I sat at a crossroad that we all run into. I was already happy and pleased with the out come even though I had given back half of the trade already. The downside move appeared to be weakening so I exited the trade (in hindsight, it went back down). At first glance at the chart. One would assume...
