Alex, it took me a while to understand your post. You really mean traders just live and sit on IHUB to be credited and backpatted for their gains? I thought you were giving us some trading advice on 17 minute chart timeframes or something to that effect. I'd hate to think you are right. I use the edit here to correct typos, add more ideas and such, but who would bother to change a trade when no one really cares? What is the point in an invisible and one dimensional persona with no actually identity where anyone can be posting from Ryker's Island or some rehabilitation center or worse for just the 'glory' of the pat on the back. I've been stinged a bit from certain posters here (in my pocketbook)from a certain service I joined and lost in, but I'm getting over it since i'm learning more than I lost from the irresponsible calling of a certain poster.

I think anyone who makes a 'life' of sitting on IHUB is definitely in some kind of emotional or social crisis. I don't post realtime trades because I have a life outside of trading, definitely outside of IHUB and could care less if I don't get any pats on the back (and I haven't <g>) I believe a few posters might be sincere or else the IHUB idea is based on a fallacy and fullfilling a desire for folks to be 'somebody' in this very nebulous cyberworld where nothing is as it seems! I pity anyone whose life is IHUB or any chat room or messageboard. Was I wrong to think this forum was to discuss and throw around ideas? I know one or two are using it for promotional reasons and marketing but does it turn out these traders are at least honest enough to try to gain some bucks beyond the 'phony' cyberspace accolades from another one-dimensional fraud to another. I think you might be wrong, I hope you are. If you're right I'll never sign up to this IHUB. Is it nothing more than a compilation of lost souls looking for validation and acceptance?

Not only are you not a very good student, but you're not even a very good observer. If you were, you would know that Zeev doesn't use real time charts. In fact during the day there are no charts to be seen any where. None on his screens, no printed out ones, nada. Surely by now if you were a halfway decent student you would have figured out his methods. He's enunciated them enough that even you should have been able to figure them out.

And then you compound your lack of student abilities by as an observer assuming there are limits. I like to look at Zeev as "normal", and the rest of us as "defective". IMHO what passes for normal on this planet is highly defective. Fortunately with a little effort one can fix, improve, remedy, some of the defects. It's not hard to add about 1 1/2 points a year to the IQ bucket. A point and half might not sound like much but after 25 years it adds up. Of course one would have to ignore the brain boys who tell you that's not possible. After all IQ is fixed at birth. What I don't get is what are these brain boys studying and researching. It's not that rare that people in their 20's on getting a head x-ray are discovered to only have part of a brain, and yet are "normal", indistinguishable from the rest of us "defects". That would seem to indicate the brain really doesn't do much.

Reminds me of the story of the chicken that had it's head cut off. It was going to be dinner. As chickens are known to do it went running off without it's head. And to the farmers amazement it just kept running. Never did fall over dead. Farmer made it a pet. It lived on for years and years without a head. True story.

And you should be ashamed of yourself for picking on a high school drop out. It's true, Zeev is a drop out. Out I forgot, the great and all knowing Alex is going to save the rest of us defects from the that mean nasty charlatan Zeev. It's not business to tell you what to do with your time, but you might want to spend a little of it working on your student and observation abilities.
