First off, I want to brag that we came in #3 in a list called: Top 100 Day Trading Blogs. MtM snipers have been dispatched to take out the owners of the top two blogs.
Secondly, everyone should congratulate Eyal, because Eyal is going pro (although he’s been trading like a pro for a long time now).
Third, I’ve updated the Blogs I Read Page, to eliminate some blogs that have gone on hiatus, and add some new favorites. Most recently: I’ve added OONR7’s blog, because I really like the trading style, and am looking at incorporating some of those setups into my trading. And, while I normally avoid new blogs, I’ve made an exception for Narrow Edge Trader, Stewie’s blog.
We posted some charts from Stewie on MtM a while back when he didn’t have a website. I guess he liked the experience, because shortly after that he started his own blog. Now, I am easily threatened… it’s stressful maintaining that #3 spot! So, I dispatched MtM agents to break his thumbs and make it look like an accident. Problem solved, right? Unfortunately, the agents thought I said “thumb” rather than “thumbs” (I really should enunciate better when ordering a crippling… lesson learned). So he can still blog with one hand, and he’s doing a great job at it, too. Why, on the post I just linked to, he already has anonymous comments implying that he’s fabricating his performance by only posting trades after the fact. Awesome.

I think its those swell videos, and the useful info that has somehow made its way in, like the sqeeze data.
You are growing a consistently better site.
Congrats!

@TG: yes, we are finally starting to become more popular than defunct blogs. feels great! :-)
@traderD: thanks, and congratulate yourself while you’re at it, since you helped make it happen..

Nicely done Richard. It’s been inspiring watching you grow from Idempotent to the now formidable MtM with its host of contributors (are you still holding out on your Adsense money from them?) all in the past year.
You’ve also become a more confident and consistent trader, and that’s also a great to see too. And you’ve also become good at several different styles of trading which can also, in the right hands, be an incredible asset to a trader.
btw, wasn’t your post about meeting women the one that got the most comments ever? You might want to go into that direction once in a while in order to attain that coveted #1 spot….
anyway, congrats, and keep it coming.

Yeah, it’s been a pretty wild ride! Actually, for quite a while now, the contributors run their own ads on their articles (if they have an adsense account and have sent me the info).
August 7th, 2007 at 6:20 pm
I bet that it’s all those women who put MtM to top 3 when Richard started to show some of his videos.
August 7th, 2007 at 9:16 pm
don’t be fooled…check out richard’s other site where he is affectionately known as captain jack…he’s obviously stepped up his game in many areas
August 7th, 2007 at 9:36 pm
Pinoy,
I adore Richard’s videos!!!
I want to spend a day with him live as he describes what is going on.
I honestly can not tell what you “people” look for!
waaaaaaaa!
Richard? Do you offer personalized service?
August 7th, 2007 at 9:38 pm
And yes, yes… I am not on that damn list!
August 7th, 2007 at 9:51 pm
TG, how come your quotes are in pink. I want mine in pink. I do have a feminine side. And we have something in common, we both love Richard. Except I think your love is a false, superficial love brought about through lust and a penchant for immediate gratification. Lay off Bi@tch. ;)
August 7th, 2007 at 9:57 pm
so now everybody knows it’s TG who made all those multiple clicks on the site causing the massive increase in the number of hits…

August 9th, 2007 at 12:36 am
Pinoy,
What is going on over here? Where is the “click counter”? Am I no longer welcome here?

Captain Jack is not Richard Todd. I am Captain Jack and we don’t even know each other. I found john’s comment and this post because I have google send me blog alerts for my blog.

If that’s actually you, captain jack, then don’t worry… no one was taking john’s comment seriously.
