Hi TimTamMad, your comments about James16 illustrate why we were forced to ask Phillip to stop posting. It was while banning another seller that Phillips name was brought up in the same way you brought up James16: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...=1#post2429353

We recognize there are still some covert and entrenched sellers on the forum and we are moving them out one by one. Within a month there should be no sellers remaining and there will be no one to point a finger at as a sign of a double-standard or an injustice.

Regarding James16 specifically he is a founding member and partner of Forex Factory as seen here: http://www.forexfactory.com/services.php. However we do not have a financial relationship with James16 or anyone else outside the brokers who do banner advertising on the website.
How can I help you? Send me a Private Message!

Thanks for the reply. I just wish there was a way of keeping some of these people like James and Phillips cause they have contributed lots of useful information but I do understand your position. Good Luck.

Hmmm... I had not seen twee's post....

I publicly apologize to Phillip.

The man got so upset that one person didn't like his system, that he left in a huff. Even after all the praise people left him. Well, I suppose everyone likes to feel "right" all of the time, and the opinion of one stranger (myself) was enough to make him leave.

Best wishes.
I have read all of this thread because of you. Nice from you to apologize.

Regarding the system, I think that as you didn't read Twee's post, you probably didn't even "study" Phillip work. I don't trade that system, it is not my style, but I can tell you that is a trend trading system, that uses mainly price action (market rhythm section in the thread) and entries on trend continuations confirmed by the macd and sup/res of some MA. So, even if it is called 4hrMACD, the indicator is the last thing you'd look at using this strategy, so no MA divergences here and not much of a bottom picking.

So if we root out all the people who also have written books that sell on Amazon and the people who trade professionally and run a training service, but are not actively pushing their product, we will be left with people who either do not know what they are talking about or worse those who say it cannot be done, or that it is a waste of time to try. This is a sad direction to take IMO.

I see less and less Professional discussions taking place.

I see lots of posts about giving up, or how a broker was out to get them or personal attacks or politics or worse Pornography postings by a long time member.

This is all very sad and a bit distasteful.

The entire policy seems pro-trader unfriendly to those who have actually helped so many.

Most professional traders tend to move on to the business side of things and leave the messageboards and throngs alone and focus on their business at hand.

I agree, however, there are at least 5 professionals that are under IDs that are not their names. These range from a very well known money manager in Asia to a person that has written several books that sell on Amazon and every book store. These guys are technically breaking the rules, but have never talked about their products. They have given countless hours of advise and guidance. So there are some still here, but not for long.

I could not care less if the process is fair. or unbiased. This is a private business not a public park.

I would continue to get rid of those that come here and build a customer base and then cut and run. I would however encourage those I know are professional in every aspect of their character and try like hell to keep them here.

This never has been a democracy, nor should it be.

I'm certain a few of those covert and entrenched sellers are valuable contributors here, with the biggest part of the FF population unaware of who they are or what they sell.

I'd like to see a ruleset that allows some of these folks to stay, provided they have a history of not promoting their products on this site in the past and agree to no promotion in the future.

The intent of the no promotion rule is to keep the outright scammers and aggressive marketers away, and so far the site has been kept remarkably clean. Since senior members have been given the authority to suspend suspect scammers, the first post marketers enjoy a very short life here.
In fact, we should have a quick-draw contest, with points awarded for speed in identifying a first post spammer.

My question is why is James16 thread well and alive? There will always be a double standard with James16 as being a preferred partner, even if all the other sellers are removed. James16 is a fantastic group.....but FF should consider letting other, high quality groups, be a preferred partner too. Why can't Oan or Phillip become preferred partners if they provide quality, IF they provide quality (the big IF).

Oan's thread can be sketchy and of quite likely low quality...for example, from Oan himself on his thread:

"i put orders at lines to be excuted automatically then take my profit .
i use small risk and many trades so i can double my account daily and no need for stop loss because you will never loss .
my regards."

But Phillip's is top quality with James16....yet James16 is allowed to stay here?

Maybe there could be a review process where FF can review a thread or group and after so many years of unpaid service, etc then extremely high quality threads can get the 'preferred parter' stamp of approval. You still control the unwanted advertising by not allowing it (and only allow a select few who have proven themselves). This in part could be a small return of favor for the senior member threads that have been of a huge contributing part of this forum.

Both Phillip and James16 began as threads to help others....one becomes a preferred partner, while the others gets lounged? There's an OBVIOUS difference between Oan's thread and that of either Phillip's or James16.....ForexFactory should consider having Phillip as a preferred partner. James16 doesn't pay for this priviledge, according to Twee. So why are they allowed to keep their thread? A founding member...okay, sure, but you could argue that Phillip has been an enormously contributing member, just as important as a founding member in terms of what he has put into the site for other members.

I'm a member of James16 private forum, which is great and has really helped me, but don't get why one group gets treated as a preferred partner while another doesn't. FF should look at the total thread, and the history of it, the quality of work that's been put in, and welcoming that thread creater as a preferred partner if certain criteria are met.

After all, it is Phillip's thread that I even signed up with FF, as I'm sure a lot of other people have. You can't just compare Oan's thread with quality threads like Phillip's and James16, but only let James16 stick around.

Thanks!

I was a silent follower 4hmacd thread for one year and I`ve learn a lot. So I want to say just "thank you very much" to Mr.Phil. It`s sad, that you`ve gone...
At the same time I`m wondering of suicide of FF owners, by banninng such a creative person. Firecape and JimDandy spoken it out very well.

I wish Phillip well and his threads have no match on any forum I have so far visited in the way they were organised. It is always the same, a few keyboard warriers for the reasons only known to themselves spoil the party. Privately, I think Phillip is better off, being "freed" as there are always some lazy "traders???" on whom it is easy to waste time. Majority of profitable traders do not bother with any forums and having a few of them on FF has been great. Hope FF does not follow the well trodden way of some other forums which have been undermined by the selfrighteous liquidity providers, for whom we should be both thankful and at the same time sorry.
Best wishes to Phillip, and to all,
2be
