Disliked{quote} " i Have been trying to recruit traders who can demonstrate a consistent 2 or 3 per cent per month profit with minimal draw down. Apparently this creature does not exist." Where does it say they included retail traders ? It's obvious they found no forex traders that met this seemingly simple criteria. The retail forex industry marketing machine is well aware of this type of damaging evidence. No need to spin it for damage control (:Ignored
Disliked{quote} that person lives in South Africa, a 3rd world developing country with dsl Internet. what makes you think there would be professionals trading out of South Africa, which you probably know nothing about. if he worked for a broker in S.A. it wouldn't be one that services clients in the US, UK, or EU under the same account management. not least because it would need to have separation of regulated accounts in those locations which doesn't exist in South Africa. Think before you write it will save you embarrassment. maybe you referring to this...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Thank you for weighing in on this discussion If you could not find any "professional" retail forex traders that met your criteria, are there successful traders even ? and why did they not apply ?Ignored
Disliked{quote} Professional retail trader is a bit misleading. We did not recruit professional ( as in trading for an IB or hedge fund) for two reasons. Firstly because we are a STP broker we wanted to to show clients and potential clients that not all brokers are out to take risk against them, our business model relies on traders to be sustainable. This brings me to the second part of the reason. In demonstrating that our platform offers a bona fide opportunity in generating profit, and that if they become sustainable they can basically secure a job,...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Thanks for the response. Professional retail forex trader .. I meant someone who is a private individual (not working for a bank, hedge fund, broker) whose only source of income comes from retail forex trading. My understanding is that even with your contacts in the UK, Australia and South Africa you were not able to find qualified candidates?Ignored
DislikedGuys, don't want to do promotions but... One of my brokers has this promotion... https://www.octafx.com/contests/supercharged/rating/ I have talked with their support a few times and they do claim the stats seems to be legit.. I mean just check it, some people claim to make 71000% returns... Do you think this is even possible.. for not so few people? I mean I personally rolled the profit to few 1000% (in a row) so up until that I can confirm, but 70k%? What do you think? Seems like a scam or some people know something... Am wondering...Ignored
DislikedHard to find on a free internet forum where people who don't know anything about trading pretend to be best traders in the world? Ofcourse they are. A real trader does not need to prove himself to a forum, a real trader remains low key and educates, learns, participates. Like many here do. If anyone is posting his "magical results" at the end of every day without ever explaining their trades - he's a scam...And that's what FF members are looking for, they are looking for quick bucks, they are looking for snake oil sales man who will show them a...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Now imagine finding out that some of the gurus got it wrong far more than the coin-flip "strategy". And even if they give wrong predictions/signals mostly (or just put every option out there so they are always right)... some even post failing TEs (that they sneakily switch/ditch but might leave the same name).. people still don't care and keep coming/following in droves... What are they here for really? Sure as hell not for profits... if you ask me. My guess would be either coming to (don't want to say or just have some leader/daddy...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Yeah man, you definetly have some good points. I'm glad you like my post. It's never about TE or results, someone can have 1000000000% return, but that shouldn't matter to anyone if they can't share their knowledge... I've never been a "lets follow Kim Kardashian( or any famous person)" kind of guy.. it's always been silly to me... silly to dream of someone elses life and follow it when i can be improving my own with all that energy. You are right... it is not just FX or the market, I guess that most people in trading (and our society)...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Was just editing the previous post, but now will add to this reply Also... Yeah, some losing TEs are GOLD, not many seem to realise this... I breakdown trades or TEs to components (if it a trader/TE/post comes to my attention), to search if there is anything useful.. The overall result is maybe the least representable, specially if one looks only the returns (and even DD)... BTW this is how I got started.. almost gave up in the beginning when someone said.. like "wait a minute, adjust this parameter"... and I made some profit finally......Ignored
Disliked{quote} That is how I also started, I spent 13 years as an analyst and not as a trader because I was HORRIBLE at trade managment, but I was very good at determinig the future price / direction. During those 13 years I've learned a lot from more experienced traders. Eventually I got better at trade managment... and I became a true trader. Everyone needs help to become a true trader, and I am not sure if it is possible to get this help on a forum... but maybe in a real investment firm or bank.. as you have many more verified successful traders there....Ignored
Disliked{quote} Epic man... I myself seem! to be good at price prediction (and fundamentals), specially longterm, trends etc... But also, daily.. which is harder due to some stall/anomalies... for the tp/sl/levels I use (my historic) data/experiences and also estimate the future volatility etc... I know I do not have the optimal harvesting strategy... specially since I know what math/stat can do if applied properly.. Many tools to harvest, I created some myself, from scratch but I am sure that there must be some epic ones that would increase profits at...Ignored
