KING - Is your e-mini trading "teach" that good?
I thought that I would use my recent Twitter posts to ask this question. The very last posts from the few days in late June and early July 2013. Actually from a whole week or five consecutive days. That was a good week, but just one of the many, 15 in total this year only that I have reported on in the current e-mini trading results section.
Because as they say, "a picture is worth a thousand words."
Is your trading teach doing better than me these days? That's a rhetorical question, of course.

20 is a new 15. I should start charging for my "new math." pic.twitter.com/RvWxFRY1Z9

That's a rhetorical question because I know the answer. So do their students who paid hundreds if not thousands of dollars more for their trading education than any of KING students, hoping that this will somehow translate into an easier path to trading success. It will not. The success cannot be bought. You need to put in some effort to become a good trader, something some other vendors may tell you too, if rarely, but they also rarely do what they preach which makes their message sound rather hollow.
Their trading strategies are not better than KING's. They are very often of the same nature, that is, very discretionary, but dumbed down so much that the discretionary aspect of trading is hardly noticeable in their designers' approach. That often accounts for these strategies failure in actual trading for you cannot become really good at using discretionary tools if you are using them in a mechanical manner they were never meant to be used in. And you cannot learn discretionary trading, even in principle, from someone who has no idea what it is about because the only way to acquire this knowledge is by practice. Hence their tools are not even an honest offer. They cannot be.
Only after spending a good deal of time using your trading tools in real-time trading can you be sure that they work and what is needed to make them work. Check out the embeded pictures of my Twitter posts to see if I know how to make my tools work. Do I? Again, I think, it's a rhetorical question.

The most recent YouTube video of my creation is also dedicated to posting my emini futures results on Twitter.
