Greetings!

Hey before you go off of NexusFi, consider this (and I am not referring to anyone):

My experience in horsemanship grew exponentially in watching other riders make mistakes. Watching what I believed was wrong. There is a lot to learn from other peoples mistakes!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure that there are many who could learn from my stupid mistakes, that's for sure. On the opposite side of the unprofitable are the profitable.

Lance is to be commended for opening himself up to the trading community.

Enjoy the journey!

Wow. Those are some fantastic points. Getting frustrated with the software. Very glitchy. And I like to read but need to stop posting. It just takes time for nothing. Think I just got sucked in. I really really like your horsemanship analogy.

I'm going to look at it that way. Maybe I'm missing out on huge amounts of lessons right in front of me.

Cheers. Thank you.

And go sir Lancelottrader go!!!

My original link for live stream didn't work. Please go to this one

Hi Lance,

I couldn't catch your stream live but would love to see it. The links posted here don't work and I don't see the video on your channel. Pls let us know if there's a way to check it out.

Hi there,

Thanks for the kind comment! In regards to the horse analogy, now I am starting to learn from my own mistakes!!!.... Finally!

Yes, I had some issues with NexusFi loading today. I thought it might have been my service provider.

I, like you, just about quit looking at NexusFi awhile back, but then Lancelottrader did a presentation on NexusFi. My wife and I so enjoyed it, that I changed my mind about leaving.

Cheers!

I actually want off NexusFi anyway.

Here, let me help.

More people have complained about your negative attitude than any other user in recent memory, so I am glad you wish to leave. Negativity is like a cancer, it spreads and spreads.

Mike

@lancelottrader and others in this thread,

Here is what was wrong this morning on our side:



If anyone experiences any trouble with the site, that is the thread to post about it please or to see if it was already being worked on. I am actively working on making sure that kind of stuff doesn't continue happening.

I also want to say that I appreciate @lancelottrader very much for his positive attitude and willingness to help fellow members. I do not have much tolerance for others that take such things for granted and then turn around and constantly have a negative attitude.

At the end of the day, I am always very proud of what we've built (together) and in order to make certain we continue to hold the same values that we started with twelve years ago, it is necessary on occasion to ban people. His ban is for one year and he is free to make an appeal, like any banned person can, and make his case for early access.

Mike

Sat back down at 12pm EST. Took trade 1 with Lance's 100 tick ATM, but saw resistance so moved TP down for 57 tick profit.

Stepped away and came back at 12:30 and put on the same 50/100 ATM and let it go. I did the Al Brooks "Walmart Trade". Put on the trade and go to Walmart shopping so you don't micro manage the trade.

1 minute candle w/20ema, 200sma, 5 minute 20ema overlayed, and 12/26/5 Macd.

For informational comparisons only.

I personally love when traders show their charts!

Looking forward to Lancelottrader on Friday!

First time I ever watched a live stream before.
