{quote} Whatever I posted against Redoctober was not appropriate, so Im deleting it. "Words" shouldn't hurt anybody' personally or shouldn't be insulting to anybody. I support FF but I also should respect REdoctober as a person. Openions could differ... but I certainly acknowledge that dignity should be maintained. I apologise for my immature words and behaviour.
Thank you Vinforex . I really appreciate a lot your gesture and your wise words .

good, a scammer can be very deceptive and blend in unnoticed.

A rich Hedge Fund manager should have strongest nerves.
Ok hello to everyone here, i think is the first time i post here, Redoktober inveted me.
Its about FractalFreak indicator and especially the Dump Money position, the horizontal lines.

Disclaimer, I really dont CARE or criticize him, what he does or what ever people do in that threat.

The only reason i took part and asked him, was about his DATA SOURCE. I was fascinated with the idea of something like that exists, cause i have seen in the past the oanda orderbook. So i thought that maybe there is some company which provides that kind of data.

Unfortunately after a lot of search there was only one company that went private.
https://twitter.com/trueorderflow https://www.earnforex.com/blog/how-t...ket-sentiment/

So i asked him a lot of times about his sources. And never took any answer. So i tried to find my self. In the end with a bit more observation and a second look from an other member of ForexFactory i realized that he has not have any external source since that kind of source doesnt exist. Its not being provided.

Short story he just reversed a normal price/volume profile and his data are based on candlesticks bars. So its just assumptions. No real Data.
You can find that your self by looking closely his videos and photos. Were you will see that the closer to the current price you look there almost zero SL lines exists or the smaller are. Remember the opposite is true for profiles.
And last even if he had some magic access to that data, why he has Gaps. Data providers provide data for each price. The reason is on a setting which called step on volume/price profile indicators for MT4/MT5.

This joker FractalFreak banned me by posting the following on his forum; after he released a new tube video full of crap:

=======================================================

Quoting El1000
Hi FF has made a new video:
Inserted Video

I will summarize it in few words:

- FractalFreak is full of sh*t; until he shows a live TE
- all his market manipulation crap that he is winging about; is his way of winging about his failure in trading
- Retail FX is profitable; and if anyone argues otherwise; look at my personal TE, ProfitFarmer, and even users with aledged profitable trading (such as CP and even man sl*t man gigolo DancingPhil)
- Making profit in retail FX is much easier than making profit on institutional platforms. The spread is much wider on institutional platforms compared to retail FX. I don't know why so many people winge about retail FX when they don't know the reality out there
- Anyone who pretend to be profitable in FX; and don't show TE; is full of crap no matter what philosophy he/she is sharing

---> was this your text or from fractal freak? because thats a crazy point about 2 people you or fractal freak mention here.
-DancingPhil was a big scammer with total big problems and extrem big mouth, who tried many years ago to scam people in training courses with faked results
-CP (you speak about crucialpoint??) is one of the most misleading amateurs ever seen (his many dimension system is extrem fun to read because its so wrong and his reason why he developed was so crazy wrong, i (and many other too) needed to correct him so many times with his misleading wrong facts about many topics.... normally only extrem beginners did not check this fact that crucialpoint is total wrong with most parts, when he dont speak about extrem basics, but even this basics he try to write in most difficult way, so that noone can see he speaks about total simple facts most beginners even know already - he really got with this shit some idiots as follower who could not check this - thatswhy the sentence is true, for any idiot you find an idiot to follow even when you write total wrong things most beginners cant check it)

so at least this 2 useless people to mention is hard, that would be same when someone trading martingale and tell the world he is profitable, because all martingale are profitable until busting.
As part of my departure from the Factory....

VeeFX: Recommended List of Improvements for ForexFactory...

1) A commercial member before becoming commercial MUST show evidence of profitability for at least 3 years either publicly via attaching a LIVE TE or privately to FF Admins as an independent verification source. (I could go with minimum 1 year also). This in itself will shake out a lot of scam artists and force them to go somewhere else but not here!
2) Any thread opened under the Trading Systems section MUST have the same rules of attaching a LIVE TE on post #1 of their thread by OP. Demand Transparency!
3) Folks opening their Trading Jounals must not be allowed to PM other members
4) Only threads in Interactive Trading Section should be allowed to post whatever they want WITHOUT giving the OP the previledge to block any members to post. Such threads should be free from any moderation also....this is the only area of wild wild west to be allowed that serious members can completely ignore. Folks want to chit chat...they come here and waste their time!
5) Remove the Temporary Membership Block feature by moderators as we must respect Freedom Of Speech and defending our own credibility.
6) Once the thread goes into Recycle Bin, no more posting allowed.
7) Allow members to create Read-Only threads so others can only read and not post. PM of OP must be disabled.
8) Allow Shoutouts on the profile page to become our own personal blogs with capablility to accept comments or block comments from other members. Current design is too restrictive in size and edit limitations.
9) The search function is horrible. It needs an upgrade to find meaningful content.
10) We discussed protection of damaging DLLs in EAs and Indicators. Someone must moderate sure risky files to ensure noobs are not getting scammed by savvy developers.
11) Protect Member's Right To Privacy

 

  1. Any violation of these rules and the entire thread goes into recycle bin upon confirmation with the thread owner and teh thread becomes read-only.
  2. Any violation of these rules to result in permanent membership revoked action by Admins

I realize what I am recommending is not in the best interest of ForexFactory as this will affect their page hits volume affecting their bottom line. This is the only way to get back to the roots of why FF was formed in the first place if you want serious professionals to continue their participation here at the Factory.

Twee - It's time to clean up the Swamp and restore Order and Confidence. You must restore the image of Factory being a Broker-Supported Forum. I have personally lost confidence in what I read here. I see manipulative threads everywhere on the Factory. It has lost it's original charm of being a Knowledge-Sharing Site. I leave this post with hope that positive changes could be brought by members and admins working together to make this world of Retail Forex a better community for everyone to THRIVE!!!

Staying in my lane...
Alright friends, I think it's time for me to go commercial and set the standard. I originally wanted to wait another 2 months but I'm tired of seeing folks get ripped off.... feel free to judge my live account. I'm finishing up the rest of my regulator filings with the state and SEC (yes that's right- I'm actually doing it the LEGAL way) and waiting on the word from my compliance people (Ascendant Compliance), then I'll start the thread.

From here I'll hold my postings to commercial only....although they've been that way for the last few months anyway. I only post here and my own personal journal.

it is good you are doing this and you will be rated as a good guy. yaaaaaaaaaaay

At the end of the day, the people who will buy need to check the seller. ( i am speaking of other sellers)
a good scammer is like a shepherd and will have a lot of sheep followers. bleat bleat.

Yes Alpha , this clown is terrified because of posts like yours. Because these posts open the eyes to his naive followers...
The temporarily suspended guy has become very nervous , BUT a rich and famous Hedge Fund manager like FractalFreak should have strongest nerves...

CRex wrote :

" 2,100 posts and there is ZERO information conveyed here with the videos showing ZERO indicators/strategies/MM used.

That's another typical forexfactory bullshit thread.

FractalFreak , what is your entry criteria and rules for your trading ?

Do you have a LIVE Trade Explorer to support your trading journal ?

Were you very poor last time and then you found the holy grail and now you want to teach us for FREE ?

People don't fall for these kinds of scams anymore as the information age matures. Total waste of time here."

I agree word by word with this CRex's post.

it all sounds great.
would be concerned with some numbers though, ( yes, that is me) that 1 single WTI trade made all the profits, whereas the other instruments with 43 entries between them lost.
InstrumentsReturn
.wticrude47.6%
USD/JPY-1.3%
EUR/USD-7.9%

but if you go true all the regulation compliance, probably it isnt he track record you basing it on
there is always, always another trade!!

in regards to the list above, #1, there needs to be another classification

True commercial entities like brokers are, well, commercial and operate as a company under regulations

But then FF also uses this as a Sin Bin for anyone that happens to do something they class as “commercial”

perhaps they inadvertently posted a link to a website, bang, into the sin bin, even though they are not selling or receive ant gains

so this makes Commercial section same as Scammer by association

therefore, a 3rd classification is needed if they want to restrict certain members from posting in public section

what do you think?
If you trade like me, you'll be homeless and broke within a week.

My prediction - this list will fall on deaf ears and nothing good will come of it unless folks and long term members push for positive change. I have done my part. Good Luck

Yes and no, the current live follows the demo account exactly- which tells a longer 10 month story. This was another reason I wanted to wait another few months so the story of the live account could be told to a fuller extent.

I appreciate your thoughts- of course this thread isn't the place to get into the details, so we'll leave it for now. I'd love to dive deeper into it once I start the correct thread and have everything lined up

I already have an Investment advisory license for my other buisness...but the US is kind of grey in regards to signals, so I've reached out to the compliance folks to make sure everything is good to go. I suspect, since I wont take possession of any funds that I'll get a green light....but that means I've had to set up a separate LLC for signals only. All boring stuff. Doing it right is actually kind of a hassle (Form ADV, ADV 2, Brochures, etc)....it's obviously much easier to stay anonymous, pretend to be a hedge fund manager, scam a few dozen people...etc etc I'd rather set a golden standard and stick around awhile

edit: figured the difference out
