hi all...

You were saying earlier that WisdomFX should take his almost never losing ( no losses claimed as yet...but thats a lie,,a documented lie ) to the FXCM King of the micro comp......where he would have a reasonable chance of making the $20,000 first prize..

Interesting ...as the previous guy that the challenge went out to, also refused and later removed off the site..

But with a method with a win rate as claimed...why not...easy $20,000..

I think he has made around $18,000 in March so far and he has said he has not traded 6 or more days this month...so almost a hands down winner.....what ya think WWWIN..

I think is a great idea,, 25k to the winner...but I doubt that he will use FXCM. Remember the other guy even banned one guy just for mentioning FXCM... Could that have been b/c FXCM trading station acct part is very easy to read....Balance=Bal before current trade.... but Equity=Current equity including P/L from open trade....then you have Daily P/L= gives you the daily net profif or net loss, how inconvenient!!... See pic below....Now I know why the other guy refused FXCM, eventhough the spread on E/J, is about 1.1 or 1.2. That would have been good for his trading style...Strange indeed!!!.

wwwin and angler? do you both work for fxcm? seems you have nothing but priase for them. Many will say FXCM are one of the worst brokers to trade with. Any news on the current court case between FXCM and a trader they moved positions against?

After reading this thread it looks like you keep plugging this stupid FXCM contest.

FXCM is crap and serious traders avoid them like the plague. Use the search feature at top of webpage and look for yourselves newbies before parting with any cash. Traders reviews are quite eye opening concerning FXCM's underhanded tactics.

This website seems to be full of broker's cheap girls plugging their cheap fake perfume.

d-t I think you misunderstood.

they are simply asking for something like you post in your journal... (I steal a link below)
it don't have to be oanda or fxcm or mbtf or whatever... it can be a sponsor or a scam or a demo whatever.

if you feel you're at a position with enough credit and you can convince the other side of the story to run a week with the way you post in your journal.
I believe this is the end of the noise. not sure if you see my point... they are basically saying they want to be convinced in a way how you run your journal.

and my opinion is, why not? back where I live, we run personal stock fund mini contest on forum since Y2004 and everyone has to post every trade upon open position...
in past 5 yrs we never see a good one fail because of mentality to post live or because of profit/loss pressure from peers...
actually I see the one ranking last in Y2007 was ranking 1st in Y2009... he simply grow by keeping track and putting his discipline and decisions under peer's cross examination. he grows.
and I trust that people who claim it can post as they claim... or what's the point wasting time right?

BANNED! For being dumb

They don't plug FXCM, only its micro contest. Which is in itself unique and a way for these so called "traders" to show the world if they are truly capable of "100% winner" systems.

haha, I think it's a good idea to use that for validation.

but the bucketshop's intention should be to promote sky-rocketing pips from 1 out of 100,000 chances...
100% ROI a week can definitely not win there... so there is no point go there to win the champion...
I strongly believe this bucketshop in it's ability to kill me with 10x leverage in 1 month.

and for 100 people blowing up 200$ acc in a week,
then it can profitably pay the award without a coin from his own pocket...

the game in itself is dirty just you can use it for validation.

but why spend time doing validation at all. >_<

if you look at the guy d-t's link of his 'true' journal, what he is posting is actually what the busy people here were screaming for in past several weeks.

be a little patient my friend.

Why do validation? isnt that the whole point of this thread. FF needs to have a reputation that threads are honest and members are decieving other members. Thats why validation is needed.

Well, 2 positions stopped out for losses, and one open position in the plus... It looks like ranger started celebrating too early... may be in the green with the three trades soon...G20 Meeting coming soon... ...I wonder how the boys did today with the busted PLs and averaging down.? Not a pretty day to follow that plan..LOL
The verdict on my 3 trades will be in next week, all 3 were posted real time...don't celebrate too much until then PL boys, you just might have to put the Champagne back in the bottle!!

Well now...I wonder if Fx. Ranger is going to get banned from the wisdomFX thread......he was told to stop bring posts from here to there....but now he continues to post links to here......well WisdomFX time to show how unbiased you are......and BAN HIM......

If not...it just shows that you have rules on your thread for people who praise you and your method and different rules for people who question it....

Let's see, I have 786 posts and joined FF October 2006...Out of those posts, I have mentioned FXCM maybe in 3 or 4 posts, and only regarding shakes or wisdom as a way to prove results and entice them to do live trading...if you had read why, you would have seen that we wanted to trap shakes into doing a live exhibition, which he did...it was relevant to shakes trading b/c he chose a broker for the live exhibition with a 5 pip spread, some believe as an excuse to not being able to trade as well the results he had previously posted, when he could have chosen a lower spread broker...in addition, the broker he chose did not show daily profit or loss levels in the account window, that is why the account window was mentioned in the post you mention as it was relevant to what happened with shakes....if you had cared to read before posting, you would know that this was an issue in shakes exhibition, the broker that you despise so much does show daily P/L, and that is the reason for showing that account window...it is clear that you are not aware of the background regarding the post you mention and are just an uninformed person trying to be cute....It's funny how one person reads one post and forms an opinion...If you cared to read, I have stated more than once that my main broker is Interactivebrokers, an ECN, and that I only have a small account at FXCM to hedge because Interactivebrokers does not allow hedging...if you care to read you would find out that I have even posted on this thread types of complex and contingent orders allowed by Interactivebrokers, an ECN. I would like for you to find one post of mine where I recommended the broker you are so disgusted about, PM me and I will ask Jewntro to unbanned you so you can post the link to the post here, that is if you can find that such a post exists...so my business has nothing to do with brokers...therefore next time you call someone a cheap girl, you be better informed because you are making yourself appear to be an uninformed idiot. OK????

your explanations makes sense.

I now remembered... reading you teasing that
' shakes don't have to choose a 5pip spread demo to trade... there are brokers like fxcm to offer 1pip spread.'
that was end of Feb and I was reading as guest then.

I also wonder why d-t says you 'keep mention fxcm', I saw you only mention 1 time in recent hundred posts (wow you made lots of post count scam from ff on shakes and wisdom btw)

showing partial order pic is a real hole, I think the only alternative with not posting live is to include acc balance each time. (actually d-t did well in his journal though, why in a haste to ban him, hehe)

I have been pushing this in our personal fund contest regulations but people are still reluctant to publish losing opens in weekly... but they always like to tell you there is a winning open not closed.
If they lose a big one they just stop posting and disappear...
We start running a month ago with 5 personal forex funds, now 2 have disappeared and 1 stopped posting weekly. only 2 left and 1 wound't publish his losing open order.

I guess this is nature of people, reluctant to acknowledge own mistakes.
One of the way was to use a system to track results. I woundn't deny that fxcm contest is not a working idea except that many people don't like this bucketshop.

the explanation on intbrker don't allow hedge that's why use fxcm makes sense... it's a valid limitation intbrk user have.
like if I move to mbtf for scalping later, I will keep oands for position trading to avoid roll over interest.

I think your guarantee is sufficient and there is no reason wisdom could continue misunderstand you as fxcm rep.

thanks for taking time to clarify and try to recover the misunderstandings from going deeper.

Hi all..


Well dont bother getting into that discussion about Brokers...BUT you will notice they commented on everything about the broker, just not on the $25,000 they could win...easy picking for a 100% win rate method......its just a diversion to get you away from the real facts here...that there is a strong reluctance to post live trades....They will use any excuss or pick up on any other topic...to divert attention away from NOT wanting to post live trades...

I guess Fx. Ranger did not get Banned....well there ya go...shows people only get banned if they have any sort of issue with whats being posted...And for that matter I was banned for what I posted here...not on his thread...so does not matter where you post your issues about the method you get banned just incase you post on his thread..

The Credibility of that thread is sinking lower by the day.....its a Hindsight thread....not the sort of thread that will promote credibility of FF to the outside world........

Everyone on there is using a signal service......he provides the lines and the others try trade around them......pathetic really......

Hi all...

House4....will be looking forward to your posted Brokers document...dont forget now.....and by the way...once in the paint program....just color you account number out...paint over it....simple...takes 5 secs

Has anyone noticed that when someone askes for information the reply always comes back....I will do that next week....or I will do that on the weekend.....WisdomFX calculations must take a long time.....and for House4 I thought on the weekend would be a good time to post the record of 66 trades...not during the trading week.....we dont want to interupt you...

And of those 66 trades trying out someones method...how many of those trades were posted live....?

As an example, for a joke on another site, I once opened a demo and made trades ---- only one person understood what he saw, which was i NAILED every single trade at EXACTLY the correct tp point --- one more pip and i would have been caught long while the currency went short and I'd be in a losing trade --- think i did that for 200 consecutive winning trades before i stopped.

The text above is from a post by Mparker, isnt this enough to ban someone? I think anyone who has been trading/trying for upwards of a year should atleast have serious doubts about this guy, ATLEAST!

He also is CEO of a very successfull NY Hedge fund, supposedly.

He's not as smart as I originaly thought, some of the stuff he says is just plain crazy.
