Yes. This is your proof.Originally Posted by ;
Today, let's have some fun. I'll wager 10k that he will not have the ability to restrain himself from posting some kind of reply, right or otherwise. Bet that is same applies to the other suspects. LOL
And I'll bet a much larger amount which their replies don't have any influence on the future performance of the account. Which kind of makes any trade pointless, as money speaks it does in my novel.
Get your popcorn out, people.

Now, no offence, but I'll let you know why I can't take threads like this seriously.
What is successful?
Any account demoning a positive balance after 1 week? 3 months? 2 decades?
10 wins out of 10? 90 out of 100? 700 out of 1,000? (see this)
1 percent return a month? 10%? 50 percent, but with a worst case? (see this and this)
5 consecutive profitable months? 20 profitable months out of 30?
A profit factor of 5 after 100 trades? Of 1.5 after 2,000 trades? (see this)
What about a martingale that's made 200% return so far, without imploding? (see this)
What level of functionality is essential to prove trading 'competence' over mere 'luck'? Skeptics and I have recently been arguing this point. If somebody is skeptical enough, it doesn't matter what you show them even if luck can rather be ruled out, they will discover other motives (e.g. accusations of faked results, presentation, anything -- view this, for instance).
In the end of the afternoon, nothing is totally provable. That is why I consider threads like this to be pointless. And that's why I doubt you will get many responses from serious traders.
If you're delighted with your own performance, that's all that matters.
