The Trading Zoo

I've started this topic because I am under the impression that ahk works with The Trading Zoo and he is active on this forum and may be able to provide information and comments about this service.

I believe that it will be constructive to have a topic/thread dedicated to The Trading Zoo so that the merits of this service can be discussed in isolation to the other topics which have collectively dealt with several trading services in the same topic including The Trading Zoo.

I think this link might work better to get to my post although I am not sure the charts are coming out

bruce thanks for the setup. looks easy to understand and thats cool. max likes easy

perhaps im paranoid but i could see a scenario that could spiral downward if i have to start defending my decisions or actions. the ahk drama that played out here had me shaking my head.

hate to think what could happen here if i tried to sell something lol

It was a problem with the forum software - I've since fixed it.

I think the forum settings must be set to give you a green star after 25 posts. Congratulations! Your are now one of us. This entitles you to use the smiley with the sunglasses on.

After reading some of the posts by others after I left for paradise, I think the one I wrote below needs to be read again so there's no confusion.

I would submit that a new trader not be in a hurry to trade. View the 10 weeks or whatever time it takes as a learning period rather than opportunity costs. The odds of success are stacked against all traders and new ones are the most vulnerable to losing money fast.

So, it pays in the long run to do your homework.

I'm opening up a small clean (only room trades) account for my LLC starting in 2007 and will consider sharing the results after a month or two with people who have contacted me and took the trial. Statements will come directly from the broker.

That means the statements will not be posted on the forum. In addition, anyone who asks to receive them will be compelled to sign a confidentiality and non-disclosure agreement with respect to those statements. I am more than happy to help those who have a bona fide interest in joining the zoo and need more comfort to help them in their due diligence analysis but I have nothing to prove nor gain by opening up the kimono for the sake of satisfying the curious.

This is consistent with what I've been saying all along. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.

One tick fill off the high, very impressive.....I've been trading the emini for over 8 years and average into trades..I have only bought or sold the actual high or low or one tick off the high or low 7 times....so that is a super fill..good luck with the rest of the position.....

For what it's worth, I was an original Trading Zoo student. Sam Baum's system was dangerous, all counter-trend with short profit targets with larger invisible stops.

A few of us students started out own Skype room to ignore the teacher's setups but rather take in his priceless information regarding the e-mini, which alone was worth the $6,000 as I gained a true understanding of how to read and trade ANY liquid market. I think one of the traders using our new modified trend setups with trailing stops actually sent someone his trading statements to someone on another forum years ago which shut the naysayer up quick.

Anyways, Trading Zoo is back but run by some of the traders who have been successful for over the past 6 years using our modified system.
I want to personally promote this because of all the original TradingZoo did for me.
