Very well said.



truman2, you are very correct in that when we're considering plopping down a considerable amount of cash for instruction we should be more inquisitive; nothing wrong with that. It's just that this isn't one of those situations.

My concern is that you'll see everyone rushing to defend Mike and miss what's really important here and that is, that this is a great group of guys who are here to help whoever needs help. The advice, the programming and sometimes more importantly the ears are free. Nobody is saying you have to do this or that they're just offering up their conversation, time, effort and experience to hopefully help someone. And, you will most certainly learn something of value if you allow yourself to.

I encourage you to just jump in and start asking questions. Throw up a journal and let others offer what they will. You won't regret it. Eventually you will see the value and maybe become an Elite member. If not that's OK too, nobody is going to treat you any different.

Again, best of luck.

Michael

Michael, thank you for your reply. Defending Mike and futures.io (formerly BMT) is understandable. I did jump in and started asking questions, though most "answers" bordered on insulting me for wanting claims to be verified. Others presumed to know why I asked and gave me answers to questions I didn't ask. I did get my answer though, and it saved me some time. Thank you.

He must be.

How can he afford to feed the 2 big labradors on a 1 time $50 membership fee.

Big Mike's results: I'm so sorry to have been jaded by so many service providers / educators / well-meaning traders, but: the Elite service could be Mike's only way of making money. Mike, can you ask your broker to provide sanitized statements of your accounts to others showing that you actually are consistently profitable?

@truman2

I assume you want the "Long Form" .... Oh wait... that was Donald Trump ....

Could you post your drivers license ,social security card and bank statement... so we can verify who you are...

I don't recall Big Mike ever bragging about how much he makes trading .... Welcome to the internet ... where anonymous posters feel entitled to challenge people to "backup" claims they have never even made... sheesh...

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.

@ThatManFromTexas: Furthermore I would like to see a certified copy of your birth certificate - if the certificate is not certified I won't believe it. If you cannot prove your age, I will increase the number of my disrespectful remarks.

Also I believe that whoever drops a piece of code in this forum should first prove that she/he is capable of coding in an orderly way.

Traders should also prove that they are capable of trading. If all traders were to prove that they are good traders, nobody would make losses and there would be only winning trades. Even the tax authorities would be pleased.

@Fat Tails

They hadn't invented Birth Certificates when I was born ...

When I was young ... we referred to "The World's Oldest Profession " as "That New Thing Women Have Started Doing" ...

If you criticize my coding... I'll tell @Zondor on you....

Thanks man.

I estimated that the life of this thread would be less than a day. Seeing as it has lived, I keep checking in for the punchline.
