Hello everyone.
AKT here.
I am a trader.
I have been trading primarily using the supply and demand approach for 12 years.
As you can see, I only joined Forex factory January 2016.
My reason is simple. Trading is very lonely for me because i don't know many traders who trade supply and demand trading or even understand it.
I had a significant life event happen to me in April 2015 which brought to sharp perspective, my mortality.
So i decided I would give back as much as I can, while I can, because i, like you, do not know if i will be here tomorrow.
Forgive me but I can not publicly share what the significant life event is because it is too private and too painful. Suffice to say, it was a life altering event for me and my family.
For myself, as stated I have been trading supply and demand for many years and paid substantial amounts of money in learning the methodology and then receiving mentoring in its practice from the excellent teachers I have had over the years.
This was accompanied by thousands of hours of screen time, honing my skills in S&D trading.
I have my own distilled and personal approach now, after all the years I have been doing this.
In 2014, I found an old diary where I had written a few years before, that if I ever "got" this methodology i would teach another person. It took the significant life event in 2015 to wake me up to the promise I had made to myself. Hence this thread.
I have pondered deeply about starting this thread, considering a lot of things, and even resisting for many weeks, the urges, requests and encouragements to start it.
I realize not everyone will take well to this but then, all that means is this thread is not for them.
Also, I personally do not care much for the idea of wanting something for nothing. Life does not work like that. On many parts on FF there are a lot of unhappy traders who have unfortunately been scammed by other people, losing money that way. They have now made it their goal to paint everyone who comes on here even suggesting people contribute something to their own success as some sort of pariah, and a bad person.
I don't need to be on F.F. I really do not need it in my life. However, it is a place that I have found will allow me to fulfill my promise to myself.
I hope it proves to people that not everyone who comes on here is some sort of thief or liar or evil person. I do it because I enjoy making other people happy. Life is short and fragile.
For traders, you must understand that again, nothing in life is free, nor should it be. You must make a commitment to your own success, even that means putting some funds towards mentoring or education or both.
That is as best as I can say it because I know that immediately there will be some who will immediately enter the skeptical, unbelieving, negative mode and think here is yet another salesman. That type of mindset does not help anyone realize the potential of a place like FF where one can learn and grow with others
For those with the negative thoughts, you could not be further from the truth. I have been really surprised in the last few weeks about the negativity that pervades some of the threads on FF. The minute anyone suggests traders accompany their talk of interest with any sort of investment in themselves, that person is heckled, abused, maligned and defamed. Unfortunate.
People would hail that same person as God sent and the best thing since sliced bread if that person gave them all their knowledge and expertise for free, whilst at the same time others would be second guessing the person asking why that person is doing it and questioning their intentions.
While I understand some of the reason for the skepticism, it has gone too far and is not only unfortunate but unhelpful to the genuine people on here actually helping make a difference in the lives of others, publicly and privately.
The suggestion of asking you to fund your own success is based on the principles set in the Universe, "you will not value anything you do not work for".
The men I hand picked are getting the support for free but value it immensely, because they have paid for it in their hunger, openness and honesty with me, previously a complete stranger to them, who just out of the blue, wrote to them personally and offered them a service. I did that to fulfill my own promise to myself.
As I am a finite resource and only have limited time, I can not unfortunately offer the same to everyone.
Mentoring and education does not have to be expensive or difficult.
O.k, enough about that.
