What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

Exactly, his last post because he's going commercial. The video tells you you can't make money on forex because it only moves a few percent but with 100x margin you could make tons. Total BS. Stay away from penny stocks IMO too small a liquidity pool. Too easily manipulated by pros.

Yes it seems he is promoting something. But anyway his approach is extremely powerful to avoid entries on flat and to avoid entries top and on bottom. So even if he trying to sell training courses here is it enough information here to try it yourself. For me personally those levels zones are now a part of my strategy and the win rate now is much higher. So all i want to say is thank you.

P.s. i don't believe in testing courses, since if you trade you just don't have time to teach.

Many of you have asked several times about who my mentor is and I have decided to share it in this thread and then I am leaving FF factory for good. I started the thread to help people and it turned out that it only distracted me and hurt my trading. So this is my final contribution to FF and I wish you all the very best of trades https://youtu.be/IRPEgt5tXbU
i am a bit confused.

your mentor says: "forget Forex!"

why are you then showing us a nice way how to see a forex market with a frequenzy distribution analysis?


then your "mentor" favours pennystock trading. oh my god, this is absolutely unserious territorium.


nethertheless, with your frequenzy distribution analysis on EU i already build some profitables systems for me, thx.
I know that you and I know nothing.

hi ceeso
To be honest, I learned a lot from you and maybe beyond what you are trading with this system and I am trading, the 0.500 theory is the basis of chart equilibrium
I thank you with all my heart and I understand the people who were against you
I hope you are successful wherever you are
I have found one issue with multipair trading.

We have all that zone/levels now. They are very good. But there is some issue with lot size.
For example we are trading 1 lot size and for eurusd it is 1$/point. But for audcad 100p = 74$. it is -25% less. So if I want to have equal start I need to trade 1 lot for eurusd and 1.3 for audcad. Because if I set for example +300p TP and -100p SL for eursud it will be +300$/-100$, but for audcad it will be 222$/74$ only. I have found one pair where +1000$ is not enough to touch +300p, and on tests eurusd was successfully triggered several times but that pair never touched +300p and reverse. Since SL for it 3 times bigger it wiped all the profit made on other pairs.

So we need to deduct/multiply lot size accordingly.

That isn't a problem, thats basic math. Your account is in USD so EURUSD is 1$ per point (10$ a pip), GU, AU, NU, XAUUSD all 1$ per point. But if your account was in euros, the value per point of EURUSD would be 8.91 euros per pip (0.891 euros per point). Why would the value of AUDCAD be 1$ per point? AUDCAD would be 1 canadian dollar per point if your account was a CAD account, not USD account. If your account in GBP then the value of EURGBP would be 1 pound per point.

When you calculate risk it should already be taken into account. balance (x) % risk. Then divide that number by value per point, then divide your stop loss in points.

Account balance of $10,000

EURUSD: $10,000 x 2% risk = $200...$200/$1(point value)= $200....$200/300(points) = 0.67 lots. So opening a trade with 0.67 lots with a stop loss of 30 pips, your max loss is 200$, or 2%.

AUDCAD: $10,000 x 2% risk = $200...$200/$0.73(point value)= $273.97....$273.97/300(points) = 0.91 lots. So opening a trade with 0.91 lots with a stop loss of 30 pips, your max loss is 200$, or 2%.

There are many FREE risk calculators that do this for you automatically because the price per pip value does change. Currently for EURGBP it's $13.01, so $1.30 per point, but before it sky rocketed up to this value pre-brexit it use to be around $11.20 per pip, or $1.12 per point

Yes exactly, Thanks! I just forgot about it while was creating ea. So with next update I'll create dynamic lot sizes.

I watched his clip, he is totally misleading not honest. He says there are no honest brokers... we are not 10 years ago, there are honest brokers out there.
He mentions "small account"... 12k... lol, how about opening an account with $!00? no chance in equities, and what leverage does someone get in equities,
it is a joke. He is misleading his subscribers, sorry.
I have traded penny stocks and yes you can make money but common it is not that easy as he says. Yes fx is harder to trade than stocks, something he does
not even mention here, he just is trying to put down fx as if everyone is a newb.

Thanks for starting the thread and providing some good information that has initiated some interesting ideas.

Overall, FF is mostly a distraction, whether folks realize it or not. So it is not surprising that you would choose to eliminate one more distraction from your trading journey.

Yeah, it is better to ask topic starter for proofs, then try to insult him, then blame for commersial, sharing ideas about market unpredictable and big players push the prices and so on and so on. But don't have time even to test the approach.

Hey man,

I'll be honest, I do think your teacher/mentor did run himself into the wall a bit. It might have started okay, then it quickly turned into the anti-broker, anti certain strategies because of broker fees, typical retail nonsense/excuse making. Then its staying away from FX, most likely because he himself wasn't profitable with it. Go with penny stocks because that is the courses hes selling mentor-ship for. Then it gets followed up with "it never moves", even though statistically speaking markets are ranging 60% of the time and trending the other 40% of the time. And often when majors are ranging it causes the minors/synthetic pairs to trend. He speaks too much in absolutes, so I think it's quite expected he's gotten that negative feedback on here. I find when I teach I use terms like "more often than not", not "never". Tell a student never and then when it does happen they don't know what to do and wipe.

Look, I find most people are on track in any form of investment trading. More often its details they're lacking, some can be found online, others need a mentor to just fine tune it and they become profitable. Hindsight is 20/20, people love to mark up the areas it worked, ignore the areas it didn't. So recognizing the trade live and distinguishing which ones are good sets up and which ones are a bit off, and doing that within their own system is what I find works best for people. Not the need for someone to teach you their system cause they'll be changes made to it regardless. Everyone personalizes it in some way. That's why its called a trading journey.

If he really is profitable though, and I'm not saying or promoting the fact that he is or isn't, but if people were interested, I'd say go with a group setting. Easier to pick and choose what parts fit into your own personal system, and how he replies to others questions might also help you. I could never do what he does with personal coaching. I stay far away from beginners and only lend a helping hand out to people I see are right on the edge but missing something within their own strat. So props to him for that.

This is a massively click-baity thread title. It got a lot of attention for sure. Big money figures get big attention.

Random it is NOT. It is all correlated and I get it now. It's not easy and it requires focus and determination and grit and technique and skill and guts and honesty and psychology and some capital and experience. There's no shortcuts and even if I'm good now, I'm not teaching anyone anything because I'm a trader, not a teacher.
big money makes big moves and then hides during small money chasing.

Yeah, I guess I was trying to give Ceeso the benefit of the doubt but its the perfect way to draw people in. I even edited my original post to make it less harsh. Hard to disagree with you once its pointed out though.
