Many of you have asked several times about who my mentor is and I have decided to share it in this thread and then I am leaving FF factory for good. I started the thread to help people and it turned out that it only distracted me and hurt my ...

Retail traders trying to catch falling knives or standing in front of trains AGAIN. Here is the problem with this. You won't use stops because you will get fooled by randomness. Your mind will be so sure that the trades are going to work and you ...

Just caught up on the last few pages of the thread. I assume other people Client Matrix are also not updating? None of my trades today are showing in my matrix and my balance is not the same as my MT4 platform. waited an hour with 44 people in que ...

Back onto the important subject of Dopamine Management. Today I finished my trades really early and I was going to quit for the day but I came into this chat and started responding to some negative posts. My ego started to get the better of me and I ...

I wrote a long post earlier and decided to just delete it because it was not staying on topic so if you read it just ignore it

I don't know how many times I keep telling you guys I am not going to be discussing how I personally use the data other than I do not use it as support and resistance but rather a road map of boundaries. So yeah I do not wish to debate it or discuss ...

This is the type of information I would really like this thread to be focused on and not the stats so much. The stats are important but as I have said several times now they are not a trading method they are just boundaries to creating your own ...

No sorry I can't because of an NDA and respect for my mentor but I stand by my statement that you guys don't need me to teach you to trade most of you already know enough about how to trend and counter-trend trade. I will tell you that I paid a lot ...

Back on the important topic of Dopamine Management. I think today I was "mostly" in control of the dopamine rushes. I did trade a lot again and scaled in and out counter-trend which I was not to happy about in hindsight BUT my morning analysis ...

Not sure what you are warning me about but sure ok lol Bank Traders as a whole are pretty much all the same. They are no different than plumbers or electricians it is JOB why would the guy working at Citi bank do anything different than the guy ...

You are most welcome and I am very happy to hear that the thread has been helpful to you. To answer your question. I traded stocks and options for a long time before attempting Forex with some success but I found that after the Fed started to do ...

Because I met my current wife recently. I am only here now because of pure LUCK and knowing my new brother in law. BUT I do not want to mislead you guys into thinking that all of those losses were a waste of time. I learned a tremendous amount ...

I warned earlier that this thread was going off-topic too much and if people insist on debating me about simple factual math I would be ignoring them. I did not invent the numbers nor are they my opinion they are just numbers that I collected and ...

There are actually two different types of "bank traders" I know this because my mentor is a bank trader at a very large investment bank. There are desk traders that just take orders and fill them and then there are divisions in the bank (usually ...

Hahaha!, that is funny and a very accurate analogy. No matter how many times I say not to they are going to try and use the levels as support and resistance. The levels are just telling you a story about the context of the current price, not ...

Why would I get upset? As long as you have statistical facts that you can back up with evidence you are doing everything that I am discussing in this thread. If you can't back it up with actual data that is another story.

So you think it does not matter if an institutional trader gets an order from their supervisor to fill 100,000 million dollars long USD and they get a crappy price? Make no mistake. These traders get huge salaries and bonuses to get the best prices ...

The thing is that people are really pissed off and you really can't blame them. They have been sold so much snake oil by fake youtube gurus and lost so much money chasing Rainbows and Lollipops. Math cuts through all of that. 95% of the real ...

I have already proved with stats (see my previous post of 12 million trades at FXCM ^^) most traders can beat the market with a better than 51% win ratio across all pairs and as high as 70% on AUDNZD. Beating yourself is what 90% of us struggle ...

Yes, I completely agree the volatility and low liquidity was definitely an issue. I did have that in the back of my mind so that is another negative strike for me ignoring that fact. Today I followed my plan and went to bed and woke up earlier so I ...
