What is daytradingthefutures.com?

At first sight it is a not very professional website, which has lots of colours and some confusing charts. There is a YouTube Channel and you can watch some videos. There is little value in those videos, many of the comments are outright false and show that the presentator has not even understood basic concepts.


The internet is a lovely place

Then you may also lookup the domain in WHOIS. You will then see in whose name the website is registered. Take that name and address and you will then end up at Mugshots - Mugshots.com - Find Mugshots Online. Official Records, Criminal Records, Arrest Records and find out that the website owner was convicted for sale, manufacture and delivery of cocaine, crime committed back in 1994. He is now under parole state supervision until 2021, as you can see on the website of the Florida Department of Corrections. I am not including links with respect to privacy.


The United States, once the world's model democracy has muted into a police state


Honestly, my sympathy is with that guy. He has committed a crime 20 years ago and this is still haunting him today, because he is unlucky to live in a police state. And he does not make enough money with trading to pay Mugshots - Mugshots.com - Find Mugshots Online. Official Records, Criminal Records, Arrest Records to remove his record from the website. I understand that MugShots is a website with a business model based on legal blackmailing.


No, the internet is a jungle

If you do not want to take the risk of being a trader, you just create your own website and sell whatever is possible. I think that the principal motive of traders to open trading rooms is that

-> they do not have the skill set required for trading
-> do not have the risk management tools to avoid the downside risk of trading
-> and therefore settle for a low risk business (little cost, but irregular income)

I am a bit tired of bashing all those websites longing out for the money of fools and inexperienced traders. In the end trading is a zero sum game, so it is all about entertainment. And if you buy those indicators or advice from any of these trading sites, you do get what you pay for: entertainment. I guess it is still better than a blackmailing business such as MugShots.

Poor America, where are you heading for? It is not so much different from George Orwell's Oceania.

We all make mistakes ..... what matters is what you do afterwards....






On October 2, 1978, Tim Allen was arrested in the Kalamazoo/Battle Creek International Airport for possession of over 650 grams (1.4 lb) of cocaine. He subsequently pleaded guilty to drug trafficking charges, and provided the names of other dealers in exchange for a sentence of three to seven years rather than a possible life imprisonment

Allen was nominated for one Emmy and 5 Golden Globe Awards.

He won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Television Series Musical or Comedy in 1995 for Home Improvement.

In 1999, Allen was named a Disney Legend for his work on the Toy Story and Santa Clause franchises.

In 1999 Allen won a TV Guide Award for Favorite Actor in a Comedy.

For contributions to the television industry, Tim Allen was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6898 Hollywood Blvd.

In 1996, he won the Hall of Fame award at the Kids Choice Awards.

The cast of Home Improvement was honored with a "Fan Favorite" award at the 2009 TV Land Awards.

Tim Allen was lucky not to be arrested in Singapore. Yes, I agree with your statement.

I'd say that is too simple a statement and too broad. There are mistakes and then there are mistakes.

In the context of this particular thread about that website I think you are falsely extending Tim Allen's success to someone who hasn't in any way redeemed himself - A convicted drug dealer who is now selling day trading scam on the internet.

The pictures and words you used are of Tim Allen but we are not discussing Tim Allen so it is an false equivalency.

That is the reason that I did not post any pictures, pictures always convey a negative of positive information and this is all false. @ redratsal managed to play a trick on me, when he started his thread: "I believe I can fly".
I saw the video showing that man flying by using some sort of wings, and without thinking about it, I thought that it was real.



In fact it was a fake. I do not conclude that I shoud never trust an Italian and not believe in Flying Dutchmen, but that I should be more careful to base my judgement on images or videos. What @ ThatManFromTexas has posted is quite suggestive, as would have been a mugshot of the website owner. In fact, any image distorts reality.

It was my fault of having brought up the subject. The website itself and the services proposed is what counts today. And I do not think that the website is a professional trading website.

You are trying to make a joke at my expense by being anal/fastidious (why did it have to be a German?) but my statement still stands. You judge an individual on his or her own merit not what someone else did in their situation.

No I was not making fun of you. I meant what I was writing. Pictures and videos distort our perception of things, and journalists (and in this case the lying dutch man) take advantage of that. TMFTs message was also implicitly suggesting that everybody who has done something wrong can easily convert to a glorious character .... However, this requires unlearning bad habits, also see trading books written by Brett Steenbarger.

Well then spit it out man. No need to act coy. Tell me what was the point you were making there and if it makes sense I'll be happy to admit my mistake.

Wow... that was really insensitive ...

Are you not aware that @Fat Tails was born without a sense of humor? That's why he gets to park his Mercedes in the handicapped parking space.....

Besides .... he is so Zen like in nature that he would never try to garner attention by making silly/anal/fastidious jokes at your expense... uh... that would be me ... not him ...
