It appears Tikin has been banned from FF for these posts offering free news signals and been called a fraud, and all other posts about this have been moved to the recycle bin. He seems to me to be a genuine bloke who has been active in some of the other trading system threads for a while now and is trying to give something back to this community, which should be applauded as I hope to be able to do the same one day. Isn't this a bit unfair on him?
I agree, its unfair. Nobody HAD to follow the calls, the choice like all things stays yours. If you did not like the idea you did not need to subscribe. Thanks to all the complainants, I hope you rot in your misery. Pro choice!!!!
Can someone please explain to me why this man is in so much trouble.
I can be a bit thick sometimes.
The FF forum is full of people offering ideas, systems etc. etc. Yet they are NOT condemned or vilified like this man has been.
How can this man be a Fraud?
He has NOT asked for any money.
I like many others volunteeredto take part in his calls. The same way I volunteeredto try out different trading systems put forth by other people on this very same forum.
This man stated from the outset that he just wanted to give back. He had gained so much personally from FX trading, it was time to return the favor.
I ask you, WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH THAT???????
When I followed his call... I made a PROFIT. But he never asked me to share it with him.
He NEVER wanted any of us to contact him. If we were to do so, he stated that we could be removed from his call list. So how is his offer of FREE help damaging to any one?
Where is the proof to back up all these allegations? Please post it if you have some. There has to be proof, otherwise anyone can accuse any thread of anything they like and get away with it? (and then get them banned also)
This is VERY WRONG!!!
SHOW ME THE PROOF!!!!!!!! If it is valid, I WILL accept it, no problem.
In former times there were member here in FF posting calls within their threads, who were not banned (as far as I know). Is the reason for the ban that he created a mailing-list?

unfortunately, it would appear that you have to be aforex factory insider, in order to organize an outside activity within the forum (these activities can even involve paid services, so long as you are a member of the elite). the OP was, in fact, just giving free trade calls.
now, he has said that because of the ban, he will not give out more calls. i can understand his frustration, but punishing would-be subscribers does not seem like an effective way to retaliate against forex factory. indeed, one might argue that he is only playing into their intentions by doing so.
personally, i was just curious into what type of trade calls one could come up with off of purportedly expensive reports. everything i have seen would indicate that the OP was being truthful and, in fact, expressly stated he did not want any subscribers to respond to his emails. he even went as far as to say you would be removed from the list if you replied. apparently, he did not want to be bothered.
I did see that he was posting the offer of trade calls in various unrelated threads and that probably warranted an infraction. but it seems the FF admins actions have been unnecessarily heavy handed with a permanent ban.

This was his final email:
Dear Traders,
Forex Factory has decided to cancel my membership without warning a few days ago, they figure I was spamming as I wanted to have as many people as possible to make money. Since that time, I am receiving daily e-mails that bad mouth me, saying that I am a fraud and that is why I was barred by Forex Factory. I have since send FF 2 e-mails asking them to reinstate me or remove my thread but to no avail has they did not answer any of my e-mails. My goal was to give back some of what life gave me but frankly I don't need this unnecessary bull S### as it deconcentrate me of my trading. For this reason, I will not give any more calls. I am sorry to disappoint you but FF policies and refusal to answer keep me from a mission that was truly dear to me as I had thought about doing it since about a year.
