In the past few years I have been on social media I have had the privilege of interacting with many great traders. Some communication has been through facebook messages, some through my trading group, others on twitter. Here are the traders that I have witnessed make profitable trades on a consistent basis through sharing different kinds of posts. Some post end of day, some explain a system, others live tweet or message me exactly what they are doing in real time. Others just explain what they are about to do before they do it then give a recap. Here are the trading beasts I have the privilege of knowing on social media.
@canuck2usa is truly the greatest real time trader I have ever seen. He even posts the majority of his entries and exits on twitter in real time. I know it is going to be a good day when I am in the same position he is in. He is an Elliott Wave practitioner, uses moving averages at times, trades trends, swing trades bounces, and even has some long term investments in companies that I have seen acquired. If I did not watch Dean in real time I would not believe his performance. He trades multiple positions very actively and uses equities, options, and futures. He has over an 80% win rate and his wins are huge compared to his small losses. If you’re not following him you are missing out.
Rob F. Smith @RobInTheBlack is bringing technical analysis into the 21st century. His focus in on trading the recurring broadening formations in multiple time frames, a method that is very profitable for him. He trades pure price action looking at inside and outside days in price action to determine his next move. He is a day trader and doesn’t bring positions home with him at close. He loves to short the VXX ETFs and profit from instruments that are designed to deteriorate. Rob is a trading beast and is like no other trader I have ever seen.
