I was not trying to be disrespectful , and there is nothing wrong with having a regular job !!

I just once asked BRV if this is his only job - independent trading , and he said it is , I thought he is trading from home like the most of us ...

He for sure has a good method , and I really miss his daily posts on his blog.

Me too. My USD/JPY yesterday would've been more than +100 but I got out for 20.
Yeah, I have that problem myself. I often get out too early. But I guess experience will teach us the good thing to do

Cheers!

If there is one common denominator on all these (often excellent) FF Threads, it's that the Guru mentor puts an unbelievable amount of effort into the thread and or websites and builds up a trusting and loyal following for the method/system/whatever, then............ Vamoosh.....!GONE!

Sometimes, Like Spudfyre, they re-appear, almost a year later in his case.

But there definitely seems to be a pattern. Or should I say Trend

Respectfully I fail so see why his presence or lack thereof matters. The method is clearly detailed in the PDF. The pattern I see here at FF is for a simple, logical system morphed into a shell of the original after thousands of posts.

Hi everybody,

I think this is by far the best thread and system on the factory but I seldom post because I am still pretty much inexperienced and feel like I cannot add any value

However today I decided to post because I just found out a brand new site about FOREX which I believe can provide precious infos for everybody here.
I'm talking about www.fx360.com , a site managed by the two heads of currency research at GFT who by the way are outstanding analysts: Kathy Lien and Boris Schlossberg.

Anyway, the real plus in this site is that it provides free real-time quotes not only for the FX pairs but for major equity index, oil and gold as well.
As far as I know there is no other site on the Internet which provides these informations for free
You can open demo accounts with Broco (www.brococompany.com) or FxPro (www.fxpro.com) and have these infos on your MT4 client, but you cannot find them on a website.


And remember that real-time quotes for major equity indices, gold and oil are pretty useful to gauge market sentiment and monitor intermarket correlations according to BRV's own teachings:
http://www.nobrainertrades.com/2008/...damentals.html


And finally www.fx360.com provides many more useful infos, but these you better find out yourself.



Happy Trading to all

Yeah, it looks to be a great site, and indeed Kathy Lien and Boris are great analysts. I check out their site pretty much every day, some great stuff in there from macro analysis to good trade setups.

Hi LJ, this is a great post ... Kathy and Boris are legends ... it can be v.handy to subscribe to their daily/weekly commentary ... they send links to other great articles etc.

RSS Feeds for varios sites are also a quick way of keeping up to date ...

Just a thought ... your signature is "I am my own worst enemy" ... Indeed, we could all say this about ourselves, however, given the psychology at play in trading, surely we would all do ourselves a favour by keeping a positive image in our collective mind about ourselves as traders - an image based on your current strengths, whatever they are ... for example, from your post, we know that one of your strengths is that you go to credible sources for education and guidance!

Good luck, stick at it ...
Happy trading, pip pip!

How well and delicately put.. my friend,...
Thread after thread here follows the same sad pattern..
And now this goes the same way...

BRVs thread here is probably the most important Ive seen in 3 years on FF.
Not because theres any secret to it.. but because he actually described to newbees some of the most important basics of how to trade...and with IM compiled a really good pdf. One of the best bits of concise communications Ive seen in public forums.

Having made that contribution, he made in my view an extreemly timely exit, thus avoiding all the endlessly repeated stupid questions that punctuate successful threads, arising principally because the questioners are too lazy to read the thread, or lack even the most basic understanding of TA or of the sellside structure of FX.... or treat the thread as some sort of chat show.. that adds thousands of BS posts that result in a couple of months to the the thread being unreadable....

Hello Deuce et al ... In the interests of trading kharma, perhaps it behooves those of us (who are no longer "newbies") to respectfully suggest to newbies that they re-read the original posts ... and then ask their question again if they don't understand. And we could perhaps also include the link to the pdf to make it easier for them to access the original strategy ... even suggest which page to read ...

I remember the early days and how overwhelming the flood of information was ... and that sometimes I didn't recognise the nugget of gold (i.e. this BRV thread) that I had either found by myself or that had been handed to me by a friend ... I am endlessly grateful for the patience afforded to me by more experienced traders and mentors - they did not once make me feel like my questions were stupid ... but they did redirect me to read (again) whatever material the information was in.
Happy trading, pip pip!

I dont think you get it...
Perhaps this quote from quote Darkstar back in 2007 may help.....

.... I can list probably 50 people that have come through here over the last 2 years that really know their shit, but have moved on to better things. They all still trading for a living; they have just lost all interest in the forum. Because they are gone, neither you nor anyone who comes after you will EVER be able to gain from their wisdom.
Helping people learn to trade is a short term project. People came through here and taught me, and when I learned what I was doing I perpetuated that tradition by teaching the next group. But the people who taught me are gone, and someday I will lose interest and be gone as well. The people who I have taught right now feel a massive compulsion to give back, but eventually they will lose interest and leave as well. That’s the way it has always been, and without some sort of change, that’s the way it will always be.
The sad truth is this forum is for the most part the blind being led by the slightly less blind. 99% of the topics discussed are about learning how to trade, and once you learn how, there is really only so much more of the subject that you can take. It’s cool to impart your wisdom on the next grail seeker, but after you have dealt with the same handful of subjects several hundred times, you need something more stimulating. When you don’t get it here, you leave to find it somewhere else.
Look at the responses from the participants of this thread. Everyone who has been here for a decent amount of time loves the idea. The people who are against it are still trying to develop a methodology and earn a profit. Go look at the recent posts of the people saying it would be a great idea. You’ll find them few and far between and almost unanimously unrelated to teaching/learning how to trade. But if you dig deeper you’ll find that they have already gone through all those steps and are on the verge of abandoning the forum altogether..................

And for those sufficiently challenged not to realise that all the key information is posted on the threads initial post ... heres the link...

I was actually thinking of going long at 1.2800 - 1.2832. But yeah, if it goes up to 1.3080, I think I'll try a short.

I was about to give a heads up to that. I made some money on the way down. Now it shot back up, not sure how I'll play it but I have my eye on it.
