I was just trying to highlight that FF seem a little vague when it comes to who can and who cannot have a "paid for" service.
Then you are possibly right, I will check into it further when I have time.

some people pay a fee to forex factory
Only brokers pay a fee to ForexFactory for advertising. Here's something I recently posted:

Quoting Twee
To answer the broader issue brought up by some new members: Forex Factory only makes money from the brokers advertising on each page of the site. We don't have a single monetary deal with any product/service provider even though we are approached with such deals on a weekly basis. We do have a few partners such as James16 but there is no money exchanged with our partners and there never was either. You can tell someone is a partner by the 'Official FF Partner' banner in their signature.

they pay or not is not the point here. the point is that they are allowed to advertise their services.

i don't even care if you treat people differently - you're site your rules.

i just did'nt like steelhead being atacked by the rest of the guys for doing what everybody do. if the admins want to ban him i don't care, they do what they want with their site.

and i rest my case (before i get banned for being an alias for steelhead lol)

what a bunch of bs there are so many others on here that have paid services that you do nothing about. Petefaders used obscene language in this thread and he is not booted.

No one minds you banning folks but blatant witch hunts are not in the best interest of this site.


#1 Rule of this site is to be respectful of other traders. Pinchapip and Petefaders should be banned for that sole reason, never mind the other stuff.

Do what is right twee or this site will lose crediblity.

Well, well, well.

Full credit to pinchapip for smelling the rat and pete for nailing the final nail in the coffin {well yes, Twee did hit the last nail with the infractions overload}.

Always wondered why steelo dissed others for their trading style and never gave details of his {professional trader }. A devious ploy to fund his own account. Ethics are not part of his vocabulary I guess.

So, smells like rat, acts like a rat, looks like a rat, 99.99999% of the time it is a rat!

Hello Steelhead..
Here is another running trade, taking advice of your shared knowkledge:
Sell price GBP/USD: 1.4528
SL: 1.4645 & TP 1.4241
Actual price: 1.4384, so Im +128pips, and moving my stop loss to 1.4428 so Im locking +100 pips and let it run (although, maybe close this trade before market close).... anyway its a nonstress trade that I took in the morning, I went with my children to park, and now its time to lock profits....
Im not sayin that all my trades are wining, but my weekly balance is ++.
Thanks Steelhead, and again... RETURN,...
Only wanna say that everyone make desicions in the live.... I didnt take any paid service, but its wise to search what other people can teach you (for example in this thread). So thanks for what I could learn from you Steelhead.

Anyway, this post is the result of the trade I had posted before: +277 pips, lockig +100 on the way for a non stress trade (look SL & Entry Price)

Regards

Check babypips.com, it's called a head n shoulders.
It's a very informative beginers site, and you wont have to "search", it's all there.

lol, FF is not some kind of mob that you pay off to leave you alone. When someone is breaking the rules of the site, they eventually get banned..it's that simple. Some people may have a trade room or whatever, but they may be smart enough to not talk about it here, and they do contribute to the site, therefore they may go unoticed by mods...simonK I guess I don't know how to trade, maybe you can help me, lol!
Do me a favour, just looked at your journal.
You think +7 and +12 pips are good trades

Sorry, got to laugh!
If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

I'm just bein dramatic.

Steelhead broke FF's rule number 3, according to Twee's post a couple pages back. He also had a bunch of alias' that he used to defend himslef, and they were banned for multiple user names..it's all there, just look.

But don't you think using multiple usernames is very misleading, creating an allusion, through smoke and mirrors, of someone who holds the key to unlock the mysteries of the market? I was convinced a while back that you and Steelhead were one of the same, seeing as you always popped up to loyally defend him if ever he was questioned by anyone on the Cable thread.

However, my main gripe with Steelhead related to the huge gaps in his "trading style" described on Forex Factory. For instance, there were many occasions when it was clear the market had moved against him and would have taken out his stop. However, Steelhead would post retrospectively how he either moved the stop, didn't take the trade or managed to close it out whilst it was in profit - all explanations which contradicted his "system" and the analysis that he would post at an earlier point in time.

He was one of these mystical traders who never seem to lose, even when the market clearly moved decisively against him. I found him to be disingenuouse and very selective about the aspects of his trading record he published. We definitely need more honesty and less bullshit on these forums.
