I didn't say it would be easy. As for the how, you need to figure that out on your own.

That's one way. That's illegal in most parts of the world though so I wouldn't recommend it.

Look back at history and study how others who were successful and got ahead of the crowd, if you want more examples.

Ok.
So you do something that you think puts you ahead of the crowd.
Great.
You look behind you and yes indeed the crowd is behind you.
You are feeling pretty good at the moment.
Unfortunately ...
as always the crowd is running, stampeding to jump over the cliff ...
and you will be the first.
Congratulations.

What is the point of creating this thread just by saying a few words, the thread starter should explain what are his ways in getting ahead of the crowd. But to my own opinion getting ahead of the crowd means to have a battle tested strategy, implement risk management and most of all learn to handle your emotions very well so that you can follow your trading strategy all the time. Its not an easy task but for me this is the only way to get ahead of the crowd, now if the thread has different ways then he must discuss it here.

In forex trading what you have just said is totally wrong,forex trading is a tag of war between buyers and sellers,the only way to win is to join the winning team in short you need to be with the winning crowd.

The winning crowd is very small. So yea, get ahead of the much bigger losing crowd, if you want to get so technical about it.

I don't have to spoon feed anyone because I started a thread. I can start a thread with some general advice and without providing specific details. The funny thing however is that my signature leads you to specific detailed "systems", but that's not why I created this thread.

As for some ways to get ahead of crowd, you just named a few ways with handling emotion, risk management and strategy. Those are ways to get ahead, if you figure out how to do it better than the crowd.

The buy or sell order you place on your computer is just like a mini drop in a big ocean,you need many orders in large volumes to move the market,no matter how smart you think you are you cant move the market alone.the crowd am referring to in this case are banks,hedge funds and big boys on wall street.

If you want to keep getting so technical, your trade probably isn't even reaching the market (since most traders are trading with a market maker).

But that's not the point. Even the banks and hedge funds (as big as they are) are part of the crowd. So yes, you do need to get ahead of them to make money (because as you point out, you alone are not big enough to move the market). Why is this so difficult for you to comprehend?

That's actually one of the most popular and longest running threads on this website. If you can see beyond the title (or headlines) you might find there is more than meets the eye. If you don't close your mind you might actually learn something you never thought of before.
