I hope there are no hard feelings about the Shakes saga. I do not know the guy and am certainly not a 'follower', just thought he got a little too much abuse too early... anyway - that's is over now.



willowchick....it occured to me that you were picking your food from the bin in the shakey thread before you finally realised it tasted bad!!!

Are you using the same broker as PeteLearning on a Live account? Otherwise the prices WILL be different. I have Alpari & IBFX platforms open right now on the 1M timeframe, and the opens/close/highs/lows dont even match eachothers. they are usually off by a few pips on EVERY candle..

Since i cant quote, please look at the pictures:

This is from PeteLearning, who follows Shakes Strategy.


Picture one shows the "real time trade" @ 9:53AM EST for a sell order at 1.2808

Picture two shows that at 9:53AM EST the high price was 1.2806. You need to go back to 9:52 EST to hit 1.2808 (and even then it was the high price on that bar, so who knows how long you had to execute at that price, it could have been 1 second or less)

Regardless, the low on the 9:53 bar is 1.2797.


So let me go through how I would use this to entice...

Everyone is in search of the great method...the search itself is a work.....I wish I can say my trading style works cos many times it doesn't, sometimes it does. Still learning by deduction...It would be intresting to see how you derive your trading success..

many thanks.

Shakes would post a webinar to prove that his method doesn't work! I Can prove that mine work! I am in search for the great method without sweat! I want to get rich!

I am not genuine and therefore someone is not crook...

Many thanks for reading my message...I am learning something out of this forum.

Hi all..

Well had a bit of time this morning so had a look around...saw some no loss trading on WisdomFX's thread.....all after the event of course...

But just reading some of his posts there you still have to wonder what is comming....there is still a consistant push of how good his Power levels are...

Post #88
"the most important thing for me this week is NO LOSSES hence for this week accuracy of my levels where i have traded 100 % ( although averagely i get > 90 % accuracy - being modest)"

Post #72
"it is important to know all these basic stuff as having a sound knowledge of above together with accurate S/R POWER levels success/win ratio is HIGH"

Post #8
"This Strategy purely is very SIMPLE as long as These POWER LEVELS are as strong as i say they are. That is what i want you to see in the next few days/weeks and as i share more examples live everyday i hope it will make it more clear.".....I have not seen any live trades on the thread

And why would you go to the trouble of typing this (attachment below) on a chart...it has no trade value at all..


BUT then you see this in a post....when there is a perfectly good thread to post the details in....only takes 1 post..

post #76
"anyone who wants POWER levels of any other pairs for nxt week, PM me."

As how to determine the levels is a secret.....and the pushing of how great these levels are...with no live examples.....you have to wonder whats coming soon......dont ya think.....

hi all...


And as I just mentioned....there does not seem to be an end to the pushing of some hindsight trade success of +90%..


Post #95

"remember this was a 100% win week for me but next week may not. as long as i can maintain MY trading to over 90% success with this method i will be very happy and content. I think anyone would."


I would be more convinced if there were some live trades...but he has said he will not do that...

The best way to show your method is that good is to call a few trades live...seems pretty straight forward to me...then all doubt goes away....

Did we not just go through all this recently......

Dam Dr. Watson, you are good. A new clever way to collect email addresses. If they would apply their cleverness to trading, they could actually be good. It looks like your post opened the PM capability though. LOL

hi all..

Petefaders.........not sure if you have looked at his so called Power Levels....but they do seem to be based on the normal way of assessing support and resistance levels......so I dont think you can have an issue with those levels... I thought there was a challenge to post Pivot Levels as someone claimed his levels are....not seen any results there as yet..

But pushing the method the way he does and the success rate is what I have an issue with........seems to be leading to something

But as i said...he can remove all doubts with a day or 2 of live trade calls...and put as all back in our places..

c'mon..pushing it like a car salesman, and NEVER taking a loss (after the fact) that's all I need to know...go ahead, trade my power ranger levels, they are just as good, lol.

hi all...

Yes I agree.......but the levels themselves look decent to me....how he trades around them may be the question...

I have not seen anyone trade levels with that sort of success rate...

Basically its another one who wants to help others....but leaves out some important information as to how he actually trades his method...

As I say...everyone knows there hindsight trades so..anyone believing them before some supporting actual live trades.....cant complain to anyone.

hi all..

Well....WisdomFX seems to be having a good day.....trading ...posting closed results and replying to posts that are 5 days old...

BUT still has not got the time to post a trade just after opening it and well before it closes.....strange that..
