Black Monday

[Poet]

There once was a guy named Daytr,
Who thought he was quite the trader,
He boasted and bragged,
About his market gains bagged,
But truth be told, he was just a faker.


He talked a big game,
Said he'd make a fortune and fame,
But when challenged to bet,
On his trading skills, he did fret,
And backed down with no one to blame.


His confidence was just a facade,
His skills not nearly as broad,
He talked the talk,
But couldn't walk the walk,
And in the end, he was flawed.


So beware the Daytr's of the world,
Their confidence often unfurled,
But when push comes to shove,
They lack the skills to rise above,
And their true colors are unfurled.

Sailor know it all, he thought he knew the sea,
But his words were as unpleasant as they could be.
He spoke of storms and winds with such disdain,
As if he had never felt the lash of rain.

His arrogance was like an anchor weighing down,
Dragging him under with a heavy, bitter frown.
He claimed to know the secrets of the ocean deep,
But his words were just doggerel that made others weep.

You're welcome to follow the Daytr and bulls of the site Poet as you wish.

I have claimed nothing, just here to call out crap and try to learn where I can.

Nothing I like more that being proven wrong as this teaches me something and changes incorrect views I may have held.

Please critique anything I have said, surely it's not hard?

I'll extend the bet to you as well, let me guess, you don't need to prove anything.

If you're going to accuse me of being arrogant Poet there's a couple of things you should know.

1. I can make money off any chart anywhere anytime. Also I destroy the market but can't be bothered proving it.

2. I worked as a pro trader for 20 years so you need to respect me. Not anyone can get a job like mine, most will fail right away.

This is the opposite of arrogance, it is humble defined.

I think you mean "not everyone"

you come across as someone who is fairly intelligent but it appears from your continual rantings on bet's that you have never beaten the market ever and it is incomprehensible to you how it could ever be possible for anyone to do it because you cant ( only buffett can says sailor ... he's my hero )

Nope. This is most definitely not humility. I usually quite enjoy your posts, but you are starting to sound like a certain hound, with your need/demand for respect.

How about you all just step back and take a breath. It is not a competition, and the rest of us are not interested in the "who has the bigger dick" sideshow.

Well I think I have discovered the forum troll, who is obviously quite insecure.
Is there anyway of switching someone off?

Daytr and bull, even if you don't deem it necessary or care to prove that you've beaten the market over a ten year period, why wouldn't you do in order to have SailorRob donate 100k to a charity? It would do some good in the world, and I bet it would feel good to prove SailorRob wrong.
I've come to the conclusion that either, neither of you have beaten the market over a 10 year period, or neither of you are willing to put in a small amount of effort in order to have a large amount of money donated to charity.

By taking their bet, making a fool of them in public and at the same time providing a needy charity with a much needed hundred thousand dollars in cash. Can get some media exposure too.

Justakiwi, I demand you respect me and grovel at my feet as I have worked as a pro for 20 years and can destroy the market and can make money off any chart any time anywhere.

If you refuse to respect me I will change my name to DaytrBull.
