This is something that I’ve been wanting to post for a while now but ‘held back’ because I don’t like getting involved in this type of thing but I can no longer restrain myself.
And this is mainly for the seasoned and experienced traders and / or the traders that have been at this JUST long enough to NOT be wiping out their accounts but are still ‘not quite there yet’ and think or feel or believe that they ‘know it all’.
Now I don’t know if it’s just the current global economic situation or if it’s ‘that time of the year (month)’ or if Mars is eclipsing both Venus AND Jupiter or what it is BUT of late: some of the replies that I’m seeing from traders in response to questions from other (‘budding’) traders are sometimes insulting, condescending, intimidating, and downright rude.
It never used to be like this (ESPECIALLY not on THIS site).
The fact of the matter is this:
How do you (or I) know that we’re not ‘talking’ to the next Wilder or Williams or Donchian or Keltner or Stoller??? (I COULD go on but won’t).
Some of the replies to questions being asked that I’ve seen of late would stifle ANY creativity that a new trader may have had and discourage them right from the outset.
There are WAYS of saying things. WAYS!!!
BUT having said the above:
To the ‘new traders’:
This does NOT mean to NOT go and FIRST SEARCH for answers to the questions that you may be looking for and IF YOU DON’T FIND the answers that you’re looking for THEN ask your question because there are also a lot of people that post a question who evidently could not be bothered to try and find the answer for themselves. Aside from the fact that this ‘pises people off’ because they have to repeat themselves a ‘gazillion’ times it also just takes up space and leads inevitably to the starting of multiple threads on the same subject which is of use to NO 'buger’!!!
Also: if you find a thread with a title that ‘captures your fancy’: DO NOT just ‘jump’ to the last page of the thread and post the question: ‘can you please explain this system to me because I like it’!!! For the most part: the thread will contain details of the system within the first few posts. If you ‘don’t quite get it’ THEN by all means: go to the last page of the thread note your confusion.
I STILL don’t ‘know it all’ (and don’t believe I ever will). Do you know it all??? If your answer to this question is an HONEST and resounding ‘yes’: then feel free to ‘lay into’ the next person that posts something like: ‘how do I forex in make money plse dat indicator what I use must is best one’!!! If you feel the question being asked is ‘beneath you’ then just don’t respond!!!
