Scammers - Hall of Shame

Forex-factory used to be a better place now its full of nonsense.

Scammers tried to penetrate MQL4/MQL5 forums but mods ban them straight away. They always keep the forums clean. Only programmers, technical analysts, quants with authentic capabilities are allowed to talk.

This is why MQL forums got many genuine & serious works ever done on Forex. While Forexfactory after decades of existence, is still full of newbies, marketers & all sort of bollocks.

There's hardly any genuine/theoretical works done on FF.

The most amazing thing i see is
People never learn!

They keep coming with same BS ideas years after years, only to find it doesn't have any edge at all. Well, I doubt many even understand the basics of statistics.

Most threads start like :

Quote
This is my system I'm trading for 4years it looks good blah blah blah. No precise entry/ exist/kiosk management methods. Not even any proper backtests provided. Its all opinions only! nothing factual

I think actually there are 2 types of intentions behind this:

1. the newbies who want others to test their ideas through trial & error, because they are too lazy to test themselves

2. the scammers trying to scam the newbies, trying to sell a new brand of snake-oil

Well , here are some recent and delirious sentences of scammer Ephisi / Victor Ufo : " No one on forex factory should be called a scammer without evidence of an attempt to scam or an actual scamming." Exactly ! In fact , the honest traders which have unmasked you , have shown a lot of concrete evidence. Maybe your brain is too weak to understand, maybe you have to re-read the previous posts and you will find concrete evidence against you. " Who made you forex factory police? " You need the true Police, not the Forexfactory police. Anyway,...

Still some shameless sentences of scammer Ephisi / Victor Ufo :

" Join us and enjoy more profit ! "

" It's an amazing opportunity for you to become rich with our amazing signals ! "

" Be a rich trader, not a poor trader ! "

There is something fishy ab this guy https://www.forexfactory.com/pickles

He is seeking an attention by answering any thread he sees, but there aint any value in his posts. Looks like he is just showing off his account and maybe waiting for PM-s. Or he will sell something soon.

I hope I´m not paranoid and attacking him for no reason, but I have seen few scammers starting just like that.

I "attacked" that someone else before the accusations flew at me..feel free to check the timeline.

I have actually cited in some other thread that EUR/USD had a bullish close, waiting for other confirmations...market is not open, nothing much to say. Charts? Yes, haven't posted any..but I have shared my thoughts/live calls here, here and here just to cite three examples..

100% win rate = he will blow soon(er or later). So he ain´t got much time, he has to make a move soon.
If u dig into that acc, u´ll see he has 60+% DD and he kept some few pip winners in DD for days. Market has been ranging and on sideways quite a some time, keeping losers, averageing, grid, martingale etc tend to work on those conditions. As soon as some bigger trend forms ... well.

Just got an business idea - trade scammers accounts. I would short his.

People said that when I was at ~10 trades...then ~20 trades...then ~30 trades...now I'm at trade 162.

Will it blow? Perhaps...that's why I divest 115% of my capital already.

Good day to you!

PS: How do you propose shorting my account?

It´s not amount of trades, it is time span and life span of an account.
If you keep trading on daily bases and won´t blow during 2019, I´ll send you a pizza and huge meringue cake with strawberries. Or, considering you being a millionaire by x-mas, u r welcome to my home, I´ll bake them for you. And take you to a scandinavian and baltic tour.

Interesting...never been to a Scandinavian country..I loved the show Vikings and the Marvel hero Thor, read some Norse legends...hmmmm.

Since you said I will blow it up soon...why don't you set a nearer date and if by then it doesn't blow, you will send me a nice post card?

Is well known old method to promote something without go into commercial rules and obligations you just put one TE hide some numbers and start post kinda... useless in some threads. Like this then noobs will make at your linked TE signature and so they will probably pm you. From that point the plan start working and you can take the deals out of FF.
Now... i prefered to stay quiet regarding any intention mr Pickles may have as i am used to come up with clear proof's of what i'm saying about any member scam intentions. From here only time will tell.
Now my own point of view regarding your TE is simple, pure gambling high risk scalp. this i can see clear from what % one 3 pips profit order can make. this is also why you hide that important details let's be honest now but even so is not my job what you do,and i just express my own point of view.
If you made that TE just for you to see it then fine,if you made it for another reasons fine again. I have TE's as well but from demo development tests,and i keep them up just cos i want to see the curve improvement while i work with Juan to tweak settings and improve tool systems every week. But my understanding is that if you make one TE for public... then why to hide any numbers?make it full private then. hiding parts from one complete circle process will always put you into the questionable zone,and it doesnt matter if youre right or not,is just the normal human reaction when things are hidden.
so... we may meet again around or not? no idea i guess we will see.
cheer up!

You must understand one thing. Nobody says you are doing anything wrong at this moment. But we are long time here and we saw many dirty tricks in the past. Maybe you are right and you are only passing the time here but Husky made good explanation about some behaviour inconsistency

For me the problem is flood threads. Because people can ask or comment freely but when almost all your post are like Jensing thread then something is not right in your behaviour. About your TE performance is fine but i still wonder what utility have hide areas when a TE is public. If you want protect "something" just made it private and you will not worry about your privacy

Maybe you dont understand anything about why we reacted in this way but this forum have long history and all crap we have since last 2 years is by people like Forexpinbar. For me who start current situation...

Just watched Brooklyn 99...not feeling down..had lots of laughs...let me answer your question...

Yes, I always maintained this is a high risk endeavor...you will always see me stating this..not once did I shroud from this! I even went as far to say it's super high risk hence I divested 115% of my capital as soon as I could.

Not as for the things you highlighted in your pic..

1. Profit factor being infinity...no idea...I guess because I have zero losses.
2. Gross gains/profit: I didn't want to show the numbers as I think % is more important...a trader who can grow at 10% pa with a $10,000 account will have $11,000 after a year. A trader who can grow at 1000% pa with a $2,000 account will have $20,000 after a year. But if you must know which I already revealed, my starting capital is SGD 1,000 (roughly USD 741).
3. Max profit/draw-down: see point 2.
4. I have 100% win, I do not have a "worse trade profit".

For 1-4, I took the liberty to attach a picture that will cover it.

Well, I unlocked the money and lots for all to see...enjoy...I have nothing to hide...

I know what will the criticism is going to be...but the results speak of itself...I'm trying a system...there's a logic behind...let me go on and confirms if it works..

few things on my mind:

1. i always see this crazy performance on low balance, so if you can replicate your initial performance on the 22k balance that would be impressive
2. But not as impressive until you show that pepperstone allows withdrawal of 5 fig profit
3. 500:1 leverage is insane, i doubt the broker allows you to trade that once you hit six fig account
4. if you do #1 and #2, me and my rich uncle might float few bucks your way

I really appreciate your act in making your TE public and thx for that. This while youre not forced at all to do so.
like i said is not my job what you will do ,i just shared my own personal point of view with no harm intention as well but based on what numbers i see.
Read again Brain post and i am sure you will understand why few guys here we are suspicious at first look,the history of tricksters here demonstrate there are always ways to avoid honest action and sad is that most of them are doing that. This place became full of scammers with most tricks to fool newbies because for a long time nobody reacted.
Nothing wrong to hide your TE numbers i say again,and of course nothing wrong with a simple trader like me to express one simple point of view.
we all know trading is damn risky ,newbies usual dont realize this cos you see most commercial guys always start with word ''profit'',since i am a manual trader i learned the hard way that profit comes with hard work and study and practice,full automated systems will never work better than manual trading.
So based on the fact that trading is already risky,then to see all those scammers trying to scratch money from one newbie is sad and i just cant stay put when i see this,so i will always react and ask and make email reports to Twee,this in hope the community here will be less scammers and more real traders with straight spine. In the end is not all about the money ,this is what this scammers forget. So related to them if youre a scumbag here in online then youre same person outside in real life.
In the end i am not against using one signal provider,i am not against using one EA from someone,not at all.
But special for newbies i will say based on what sad stories i saw during time ,
NEVER put all your money into one mt4 acc to follow one signal or trade using one EA,this is the biggest mistake,always use half or even less from what you really really afford to lose. you must do this ONLY after you see some serious performance transparent numbers,long enough to show you can survive in many different market conditions. Some really must work on the ''afford to lose'' cos what they think they afford to lose is not the same with what they really lose in fact.
Never let anyone manage your own forex acc and balance while he is a stranger from online,account management is a SERIOUS BUSINESS with huge responsability,and most who does this here have no responsability not to mention they have no past performance long enough to sustain their claims.
When one guy promote to you his stuff but he dont start from point 1. most important thing THE RISK and the fact that you may lose everything in a matter of minutes sometime even seconds (mind the flash crashes on the market) ... you better run
One guy who always tell you ''invest more'', if you have 1000 you better invest 1500... run!
One guy who tells you he can make this %/day stable ,no risk or low risk ... run! Nobody can make like this cos we are retailers we make or not profit in accord with what market give us as opportunities in a strong strong relation with a same strong money management. So there are no promises in forex.
cheer up!
Take what you can, give nothing back
