Lol. Nice rebuttal "Boot licker" or an admission that you don't actually have one.
For what it's worth, I've spent years losing, and spent much more than I'd care to admit on trading communities, courses, indicators, discords and signal groups across crypto, stocks, CFDs and props. Most of it was regurgitated garbage, hindsight charts, excuses and general shite.
I've seen enough Discord gurus, signal sellers and hindsight heroes to know the difference between someone selling a dream and someone showing up and doing what they actually do every single day.
I'm happy to defend Lanto because he does something very few actually do. When he trades live, he explains what he's seeing, why he's taking the trade, how he's sizing and how he's managing his risk through the trade.
Is there stuff he doesn't show? Maybe.
Does what you see live in his discord tie up with what gets posted to X? Yes.
Is anyone going to become a millionaire overnight from joining his Discord? No. At the end of the day, risk management, sticking to a model, and following rules is everything.
He's put himself in a position where, when the conditions are right, he can press the accelerator and fully capitalise on the opportunity.
And whether people like it or not, most traders simply don't have the balls or the discipline to do that. Do I - No. Can I admire someone that does - Yes.
The thing people seem to miss is that @lanto_trades isn't some one-hit wonder who got lucky on a single trend day.
He calls and explains his trades live, day after day. He has red days, average green days, and days where he's wrong. Nobody serious is pretending otherwise.
The reality is he didn't post this after the fact. He called the direction, posted the levels, posted the idea, and then managed the trade.
What separates him from most traders isn't just calling direction. Thousands of traders saw the same move. Most took 100-200 points, patted themselves on the back, then spent the rest of the day watching it run without them and then felt bitter about it all weekend.
His edge is knowing when the market is offering something exceptional, having the conviction to stay in it, adding properly, managing risk, and still being in the trade hundreds of points later when everyone else is long gone.
That's the bit most people don't seem to understand. Catching direction is one thing. Holding through pullbacks and actually extracting from a full trend day is another.
Everyone loves analysing the contract count after the move is over. Very few can explain why they didn't capture the move themselves.
If he's blocked you, I'd probably do the same. At some point it stops being criticism and starts being people trying to farm engagement off someone else's name. Sure you can hit a few good quotes on cutting negativity on Google.
He didn't block you because of the maths. He blocked you because nobody is obligated to host constant negativity on their timeline.
If you genuinely think it's just gambling, simple - don't buy the Discord, don't follow him, and move on as opposed to letting him live rent free in your head.
For all the criticism Apex got, I never had a worse payout experience than with FuturesElite.
Every payout I requested was cut to 30%, while they still deducted the full amount from the account balance, citing “risk rules” that were not shown on the dashboard. As far as the visible account rules went, I had met them.
The whole process felt designed to mess with your head more than anything else.
@lanto_trades The free eval at payout is such a good bonus even the prop firms are starting to copy it. Time it right and you can end up with multiple accounts for the price of one.

@Switchback_420 Likely going down heavy...
Israel/USA and Iran about to start bombing the shut out of each other again, any likely to bring in the Gulf States heavily this time.
The problem here is not “AI triage.” It’s choosing a bad workflow and then blaming the tool.
Using AI to triage an inbox through screenshots and browser automation is about the least efficient way to do it. Pull the mail via API or IMAP, structure it in a database, pre-sort it with simple code, then let AI work on the relevant subset. That will be faster, cheaper, and more reliable than simulating a human interaction with screeshots.
@unusual_whales The market is an auction... To buy at that price, someone still has to be selling so selling volume had to support the buy too if its true.
