Do you polish the brass on a sinking ship? I know that’s a dumb question, but let me tell you what I’m thinking. The likely winner of the Trading Pimp of ‘07 won’t acknowlege the award. The runner ups are swimming in money anyway. They already have their own Chalice, luxury cars, and a stable of women. Do they really need anything more than Mr. White Folks recognition of the strength of their game?
What I’m thinking is this. I receive no ad revenue, and could care less about blog links, and page views. I’m a man of the people. I remain the only blogger who gives away cash and prizes with zero expectations of future financial gain.
This year I’ve decided to name the Trading Pimp of ‘07, but not award them the grand prize. The prize actually goes to a struggling trader. Since I’m still pimpin’ on a small stage, he/she will be given a one year’s subscription to Technical Analysis of Stocks and Commodities.
Here’s what I need from you. In the comments of this post, tell me why you should get the subscription. You can also nominate other struggling traders. Links to this post will gain favor with the judges. Now let’s help polish the brass on a ship that may be sinking.
Oh goodness! I won the prize! Yee-ha!
But seriously, having been honored with such a title means I should give some back.
Can you write EasyLanguage code? If so, I have something for you.

I’ve been polishing the brass monkeys here on the ‘S.S. Prospectus’ for quite a while now. Ain’t nobody that can whine about how big of a loser they are, all the while clicking off trades like a $2 junkie like I can.
t: nope…i’ve been trying to learn wealthlab, and haven’t had much success so far…i’m glad that u finally responded, so we can get on with the presentations the week before christmas…stay tuned!
prospectus: it was your post that inspired me to tweak the rules this year…i hope that in the next year or two, your trading will be worth of being honored with a pimp cup to sport at your office…i guarantee u will be the only rocket scientist with a chalice :-)
i nominate Prospectus…
and i write EL code but swamped at the moment… if u need something quick i maybe able to help.
born2code: absolutely…prospectus has to be one the favorites…he’s definitely the people’s choice…as far as the EL code goes, i appreciate the offer…however, i really need to learn to do this…thanks
Since I am not trading money yet, I likely dont qualify with even with a brass tea cup. :)
Cant wait to get my hands on Easy Language though. heh
