I am not asking anyone to tell me anything other than YES they trade with real money or NO they don't. If they care to post a chart or 2 showing what they look at, that would just be an added bonus.

Perhaps, I should have made this simple request instead:

If you trade with real money, please post a chart of your setup.

Real demo traders, Real demo money.
Where are the real demo traders who trade with real demo money?

If you are not for real, trading with real demo money, please post your chart and describe what you're doing.

Please do not post real account trades.

Just one post per trader is all that is necessary. But if you wish to share more that's fine. Let's just find out who puts their money on the line.

I found a penny on the ground next to my car. It was bent in half and somewhat flattened. I traded it for 2 shinny quarters to my wife, because she thought it looked cool. ON to my next big trade

....

I have been trading for about 20 years, FX for about 6 and Price and volume are generally the key to successful trades. In FX there is only tick volume, however even tick volume can tell you when there is accumulation or distribution. Do not trust MT4 volume. It only represents their retail traders, who generally are wrong. Look for volume from large banks. If you want to know more, check into the writings of Wyckoff and Tim Ord and Tom Williams this will get you some valuable info on market structure and flow. Understanding what is behind...


So where do you get correct volume...?

For the record, I have nothing to sell. No website or blog to promote. No indicators to post. You'll have to find so other excuse to get me banned if that is your intention.

My simple request seems to have caused ripples around the forex world. One forum banned me for 5 months for trolling/flooding, whatever that is.

How can you expect anyone to take you and/or your system seriously if you are not trading with real money?

How much you trade doesn't matter to me....
i think the reason you're not getting replies to your question is because you're going about it the wrong way.

i hope if you're looking to "take people seriously", real money trading isn't your criteria. anybody can trade with real money--doesn't me they should be taken seriously.

a system is just a system -- its the trader that makes it profitable.

going by a generally accepted stat 95% of the traders in this forum consistently lose money, sure they may have streaks of winners--but that is soon marred by bad trading psychology, impatience, the inability to step back and say "i don't know whats happening, and won't trade the signals my system is giving me, until i do."...etc.

out of those 95%....90% have not committed to the hard work that learning to trade is. they still look for free handouts, 1 book to tell them everything they need to know to turn 1k into 1m, 1 website that will tell them everything in the universe about fa and ta, some piggy back trades off of more senior forum goers ---hoping that post count, vouches, and (rare) account statements will help them follow the "real" traders and make it rich.

learning to trade is hard work. there are 100s of books to read, classics like reminiscences, gann, schwagger's market wizards series, there are also modern authors, steenbarger, spirendeo, etc. there's the 100s of hours of practice, demo and real, there's the countless hours of self-reflection, analysing your own psych, journaling your trades, pych state, and decision making process...reviewing your charts to recognize setups, etc.

you do that first -- then you'll come to a place where you have your own trading style, your rules that keep you in the money and out of the mess. when the battle isn't any longer just to be profitable, but to be a better trader, stay consistent, and make even more $.

then you will be able to look at a "system" real or play...analyze it, dissect it, take what you can learn from it, and toss the rubbish.

but maybe i'm an "old dog" in this biz, thats just my 2cents, i'm sorry ahead of time if i've offended any one, that was not my intention.

take or leave what you will from this post...hope u find what you're looking for.

In my humble opinion. 90+% of all FF users only browse the "Trading Systems" Forum every day hopeing that the Holy Grail come flying towards them and says "Here I am!". 90% of all Users have little to none experience. 90% of the Systems you will find are crap or they miss important parts (when to exit, Moneymanagment, What if...) But there are some things you can keep in mind and use it to create your own style. Don't think a system consits of 2-3 indiactors that have to say BUY and thats it. This will never work. If you ask me there has to be some...
Yes you are right. Most traders think that trading is all about strategy. They look for it everywhere. They think there is one strategy that will make them rich. They never try to understand that the success of a strategy mostly depends on the individual it's using. Strategy is just a single component of successful trading.

The real traders in Forex trading can predict the real faction of this market with certainly , but for achieving this position one mush have to pass a long time in here with great patience. Otherwise that’s not possible at all.

Actually the real traders always able to predict the real faction of this stock exchange with certainly. but it’s a long term process to be a real traders , that’s why we fail to interest to keep patience after passing sometimes.

Frankly, I didn’t like your title! Please don’t show off your result, Forex isn’t easy; so don’t call up the new traders with misleading Meta tag.
