ICT float (modified indicator by kate682)

Kate's post is thought provoking and maybe reflects our capitalist market, one of extremes.

Perhaps taking months, even years to learn, yet to be learned in a few weeks, one of humble thanking leading to ridicule, one of having much yet to see those with so little, one of refusing ever to charge yet to setting up a paypal payment account.

Not knocking Kate, far from it, I'm part of the capitalist regime, just good to reflect on a guy I'm aware of who is not.

He gave up everything, all possessions, the lot, went to work for his community on the minimum wage.

His motto is strange - 'take it down the middle, look for the middle ground'.

That's what I have to do on Eur/Gbp - not so easy.

The 'he' is probably Mr Guinness®
 
This is the guy, not sure whether he likes Guiness, know I certainly don't.

Not surprised the cat didn't get the post, you have to actually think about it, and do a tiny little research.

Btw I remember a guy who spoke about 'the powers that be' a couple of years ago, he too owned a cat - could this same guy think a little more about capitalism.

To check out the 'powers' I will not provide a link, these guys are not called 'powers' for nothing, so no intention of causing Jack hassle - if you wish to see how a market participant can flip flop from one extreme to the other then try find Jonathan Sugarman, some banker or other.

Some notable name dropping last month, je crois.

Want to win in any business? - take the middle ground.
 
Oh - nearly forgot, a post for all you guys who are not from Ireland and who maybe have never tasted Guinness (even without the ®)

He had a strange username & as with a few other weird fanboy's, got himself banned in the end.
Him & the sockpuppet kept re-appearing in multiple nicks didn't they?
Very strange.

He blew an absolute fortune following the advices & recommendations of that sockpuppet though.
And he wasn't the only one by any stretch. The galling thing though was the Clint's, Peterma's & Hogarstes – apparently respected honory members – continued to enthusiastically bang his drum encouraging more naïve newbies into the pen, even after he cremated 2 or 3 demo accounts!...."

you talk like you're above the ICT bullshit, but last I checked you were snubbing fibonacci and were heavily invested in Order Block trading. sounds like you are failing and desperate to find someone to project your failures upon. see right through you, ya fuckin internet blowhard 8)
 
Come on pus no need to try and scratch me with your little paws.

LOL, Fibs are nonsense as is Astro and all the other mumbo jumbo.

LOL, heavily invested, I think not. I merely took and adapted what I wanted and made sense. OBs are not a new concept,. Actually I 90% merely look for liquidity stop hunts. Again, nothing new. I found my niche a few years ago, how about you ??!!

Yappy is the word, or perhaps Yappy and suicidal. Like a yappy little feline 'puppy' running after cars on the highway.

"... I can't remember the exact name of his biggest failure, some yappy canadian kid….Darren or Aaron or something? ..."

I suppose you win a prize for being the biggest failure.

Want to win in anything? Take the middle. Want to give the answer to anything? 42. Great advice,but the problem with it ,that if you "really getting it",then it's not useful anymore (remember where you come from)... But gonna be nice to remember a wiseman. :p Hats off. ;)
Lets expand a bit in a more useful way..
If simple winning is good enough, its easy enough, go for the 80-20. But if you really want to shine,you soon discover that the 20-80 rule in reality is 98-2% rule.. Good news as theres less air near the top ,also the nr of competitors to cross lessens. But boy, they become so much more skilled and skilled. My advice would be... Get the best grounding you can(thx S' <3 ), do your damn personal best, and evaluate (cause reality can be a bitch :D ).

Cheers,

You're just trolling. Behind every troll is a petty failure. Real winners don't behave like you but you wouldn't even know that lol. I guess it makes sense actually ;D

Always bites.

Kate seems like a level headed sensible gal, sums Mikey up to a T. She caught on a lot quicker than Suicide Cat.

Something else to 'ponder', I remember Mikey using several free indicators, egs ADR and Round Number, which imho, were poorly coded crap. I'm a coder and always like to pull apart the source code. I would have thought, pulling in a consistent seven figures per year, that he would have paid a professional to code his indicators. Kate actually coded some simple indicators for him, from (Twitter) memory it was some rectangular boxes to identify time of day zones., at his public request. Obviously he could not come up with the few dollars to pay a professional.

Bottom line on ICT for me is,
1) He has been teaching as he is learning
2) He does provide some useful precis introduction to concepts eg COT, just take what makes sense - caveat emptor
3) the material is mostly repackaged- Wyckoff comes to mind
4) He is long winded, a liar and egocentric - read nutter
5) He is not making much, if anything, from Trading due to his personality

I was too ignorant to know that what ICT was teaching was mostly rehashed bullshit. I admit that and have accepted it.

The only reasonable point he ever made was "if I wasn't making $$ trading, why am I doing this all for free?".....

I didn't foresee the long-con being played out....... over 6 years. It's quite fucked and quite amazing at the same time. All bets were off regarding his credibility the second he started charging $$, despite the illegal "charity" cause he yapped about in August. He should honestly go to jail for that stunt..... the rest is just really fuckin greasy and sociopathic.
 
Yeah, I can remember saying that he had a poor business model since no revenue for the videos etc - turned out not to be so bad a model after all.

Come to think of it, he used to preach patience, so he waited for 4 or 5 years to build up his internet presence, then they were begging to pay, not a bad plan, who would think it possible to create revenue even though every attempt to show success failed.

Anyways, what is won is won and what is done is done and what is lost is lost and gone forever..... must write a song about it all.......

- now where is that Guinness guy when you need him.

Have a prosperous 2017 guys.
