why i am stuck at 1600 elo

guys i am 1600 elo for a year and i cant improve myself what is trick to being 1700+ help me

I can't view your profile from this Chess.com app, which is one big drawback of it, but I hope you are not referring to your Chess.com blitz or bullet rating, which does not count as "real" Elo. Real Elo rating is your Fide rating, or your chess federation rating (approximate). OTB.

i am talking about real elo

It is probably because you are missing opportunities in-game. I may be rated low but I play at the strength of a master. My game knowledge is unparalleled. PM me and perhaps I can teach you a thing or two(for free of course). I will teach you how to see the board the way you envision it. The first thing I would ask you to do is to find a mentor within the chess community. Find your model player and start to study his games and read about him. Not all at once, as that would stifle your growth, but slowly and surely, and you will win the race. 

I don't want to insult anybody, but with all due respect, you have played 2300+ games and your resulting elo's are live standard: 1418, blitz 965 and bullet 1104. Where are the results from playing like a master with unparalleled knowledge? It's nice you offer him free tips, but you shouldn't be calling yourself master strenght level, because that is just ridiculous. 

You play at the strength of a 1400. Your game knowledge is most likely mediocre at best.

I was really frustrated at 1600... especially frustrating when players above 1600 called themselves bad or talked about how easy it was to be [insert rating above 1600].

But rating plateaus are natural (mine lasted a few years).  It stopped when I started playing in tournaments more often, and when I got a book (with good reviews, by a well known author) on an area of the game I knew I needed to work on.  One of the following: opening, endgame, middlegame, strategy, tactics.

I'm not trying to hint at the author or book.  Really, I think you can pick any well liked book by a well liked author.  The trick is seriously and carefully working through the whole book.  Take notes, review sections, when you're tired or an example was complex then put the book down, take a break and start again the next day.

And it may be tactics.  Then, IMO, the trick is seriously and carefully solving the puzzles... none of that timed crap.  Don't take 20 minutes, but don't take less than 1-2 minutes.  And for puzzles you miss, really cherish that pattern... learn it, remember it, review the puzzle on a later day.  Try to put into words the smaller elements of what's going on.  Try to remember the smaller patterns.  E.g. queen checks a king from an adjacent square on an open board, how many escape squares are there?  Can you visualize the pattern the two escape squares make for both a diagonal and orthogonal check?

All this to say, IMO you don't need a specialized training plan.  You need to slowly and seriously work on an area you know you're weak, and you need to play slow and serious games against equal and stronger opponents.

Shall we play sir? Prove me wrong :).

There are many ways to get off a plateu of 1600. If you are really interested in the best ways--contact me in person.

hey Mr. Taylor, good to see you are back up and running.  Merry Christmas.

You can read my forum here http://www.chess.com/forum/view/general/improvement-in-chess-according-to-elo. Take a look at your level to find out what you have to improve.

determination is the thing that counts in chess. Play with the urge to destroy. For example, I like to perform slow and painful wins, this simply pops up my endgame and positional skills

I have review 8 of your games, losses mostly but also wins and draw.

Your openings are for me impeccable. Your middle gme is good and your end game well is wek.

Mostly is that you do not protect or know when to protect your King.

That is when to exchange and when to move your King out of sight for an attack and this includes taking your King protectors left on the board too far away from your King. You fish for minnows and your shark opponent has a much larger prey.

If you want any game analysis and it is free just ask I have written down my suggestions but at this point in time will not go through deep analysis.

In summary King protection is your weakeness!

i didnt play 2300+ games maybe 50 60 and i am really bad at blitz and bullet

if you want i can play 90+30 with you

I was referring to the 4th comment in this thread ;)
But I would love a 90+30! You're a bit stronger than me live, so might be fun! I love long games :D  

Play the same openings every time until you've mastered the opening. Takes probably 2 years approx. Then watch gm videos like Daniel King, Kingscrushers, Chessexplained, chessnetwork, st louis chess channel etc. Probably the reason is is that you lack postional knowledge. Where do your pieces belong, what are the key squares stuff like that. What I realize is the difference between a gm and lower rated players is the positional knowledge not the tactics. When I play against 1600 players I've noticed that they understand the game and don't often blunder. But they don't think out of the box. The moves you are looking at are probably too limited, start looking for ''strange'' moves. Don't just blindly follow the rules but try a lot of crazy stuff to find out what works and what doesn't. Consider moves like putting the knight on the rim, kingwalks exchange sacs pawn sacs i the middle and end game. Just try to open yourself up and not have tunnel vision, look at everything how retarded it is.   

thanks i will try your suggestions

Have you played the "Master with unparalleled knowledge" yet?

I usually float around 1800 OTB.  I will give you my perspective in the difference between the 1600 and the 1800, take from it what you will.

1600 player's mentality is such:

1) Know a certain depth of opening to survive

2) Understands enough tactics to not outright blunder all the time

3) During mid-game after opening knowledge is gone they play moves that they cannot see tactics against them.  They play to not lose instead of having a strategy of how to improve their position.  

What a 1800 know that 1600 does not?

1) How to take advantage of space openings, seriously if you play 1.d4 as an 1800 you can get them into a middle game and slowly squeeze all their squares away and they will retreat backwards to find moves that don't lose material until they have no good moves left.  Common tactic that works against 1600's OTB vs me at 1800 is just play 1.d4 and aim to control e5 and c5.  Watch as most 1600's cannot find a way to free their c8 bishop and play a piece down all game long.

2) Pawn breaks.  1800 knows when they need to throw a pawn up and move the structure so they don't get boxed in.  1800 class knows the key squares and how to get those pieces in the game. 

3) End game of 1600 vs 1800 is a world apart.  Most 1600's have spent almost zero time on their endgame technique and thus will trade material into losing endgames.  

4) 1800's will not only know their opening, but they will likely know all the serious blunders in their respective opening that an opponent might make and how to punish them for it.  1600's might be able to calculate the blunder given enough time, but they don't implicitly know  and thus if they have other ideas in their head, they'll ignore the chance given to them.  

From an 1800's perspective the 1600 is playing to "not lose" rather than to apply pressure, maximize their pieces and make the game difficult for their opponent.
