{quote} Have you heard of the method called Beat The Market Makers Method (BTMM)? Well it states that the Market Makers all work together for a desired result in any pair, and that in life things happen in 3s, so does the Market itself moves in 3 pushes. It always happens and I think this method is quite consistent though I have only started being consistent now after 3years of learning it. I can also see the 3 pushes on the graphs you posted. Sometimes there is also a 4th push which is an extended push. But after this the Market then reverses....
Your educational material is good. I also watched your video and subscribed Nice.
You have uploaded the template without indicators.
Can you please upload all the indicators used in the template?
Thank you

To avoid the manipulation of market makers it's best to trade CFDs since they cannot manipulate the data feed of the DOW 30, the DAX, etc.

Oh my godness.

edit: You guys are like parrots. One of you mentions something absurd bs and the rest 100 will repeat it.
CFDs are crap, you dont know what you're trading i think.
Manipulation cannot be avoided and its not done as you think it is. Look up pulling, icebergs and look at an advanced dom.

Yea theres manipulation, but you just have to know where to look, and not all trades are profitable.

There are reasons why U.S. gov banned CFDs......

I wonder who is talking BS? I started trading before you were born and making a very good living trading full time. If you want to make peanuts trade low ATR pairs such as EURUSD. If you have a decent account and want to make money trade CFDs with pips value over $100. You might learn a few things from the iceberg
Good luck trading!

I seem to have a working trading system, however, despite constantly making a profit and overcoming the high cost associated with trading over the last year , I still can't confidently say that the system is profitable perhaps I have simply been lucky.

3 or 4 years ago I started trading, 6 months after I began I stopped trading live money after many many losses and no idea what I was doing.

Fast forward to now and I'm live and profitable the last few months(only recently).

I read this thread a long time ago and nearly give up, why don't people just post proof if you are so good?

My strategy cant be back tested easily or I would post proof, well it could but it would take an endless amount of time. I do a lot of fundamental research before I trade, I analyse CTFC data, I check a countries GDP,interest,inflation rate.

And I basically just trade support and resistance and look for stop hunts.

I'd like to see other people sharing their success.

Nasty business trading, full of hate rather than help.

I mostly trade on D1 charts because I'm now a lazy trader. I also trade a few CFDs but using Renko charts. The chart that I posted above is using the "TMT Scalping System" with Renko $1 bricks. You might wish to take a look at that system since it's one of the best in FF. Happy trading. Have a nice weekend all

I don't have anyone on my ignore list because everyone is entitled to his opinion and whether comments are positive or negative there is always values in them. On the other hand my favorite drinks are beer and whiskey. Try a good Irish whiskey and I'm sure you will love it

I highly doubt someone with over 3 years of profitable results is going to come here and post just to prove a point.

The better question is why do you think it's impossible to profit from forex?

Just because you haven't figured out how to trade or understand the way the market works doesn't mean others have not.

You can profit from any market that moves and that includes forex. It's not easy to do obviously but it is possible.

The problem most people have is they want to find some secret strategy or something that they will be able to repeat and get consistent results, that is not going to work, the market is not predictable in that way and that is why backtesting is such a hard thing to use as an indication of future results.

The market is based on economic factors that are constantly changing. You have to understand what's happening outside of your charts. It's always changing, so yes the chart patterns may be somewhat random but the move up or down is not.

It's all good to be a trend trader, or to follow the trend, but it is definitely not the best, obviously you don't need unnecessary over-complexity, but that applies to anything.

Well, I'm just trying to keep up with the trend.
I don't need to do very sophisticated and complex analysis in this style.

If you can beat the SP500 you are already a good trader.

Great. What I mean is that 10% a year consistently is a good return
