Stewrigh.....Well it sure looks like another....

Based on this posted in his First Post,,,,

"This is not a trading system therefore profit targets, stop loss information etc will not be provided.

The workings of the algo' will not be shared.

The info' is provided on an as is basis and if you can use it then that is great but if not then that is also fine.

I intend to have this thread open until the end of the year only."


The fact notch gives an ending date...may suggest that this is a promotional thread....and uses a Nick Name...of the Technique....YEP totally a promotional thread..

Hi all...

Just another post by ....notch....

Peeps,
The volume of my posts tells me that it is time to start a new thread to offload some of my ideas etc.

Further, the sheer number of traders that want to be on the distribution list is simply overwhelming (I am glad that you have noticed the power of the Notch Cycle) and I think that it would take quite a while to send posts to all interested parties in batches of 5 (the maximum no of people that posts can be sent to at the same time).

I will also post my predicted high & low info' here for 5 time frames. I will include signals from the Notch Cycle but will not be explaining the mechanics behind it.

I mean...how promotional does a trader have to be ......geeez.

Well he is changing the thread and now giving out more info on his system because "There are too many (I can't even use the term trader) gamblers - with zero trading experience - frequenting FF looking for the next tip and looking for somebody to blame for their own folly. .... please don't come here expecting the holy grail."
http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...6&postcount=25
But I didn't see any posts at the thread blaming him for losses so if this statement about being blamed for losses is accurate, such blaming was done either thru PMs or email or outside FF. What say you?

Hi all....

thought it was time to move this thread back up...

So looking at the fantasy thread ( WisdomFx )..

FxDanny4X......dont you think it would be a good idea if you declared the results of trades you had running already..

I think there was 3 trades scaled in ..and then the price dropped about 70pips...but bounced up to bring you into profit....BUT it came back down and you bought in again..and set them to breakeven...WHY would you buy again and then set to breakeven when you had something like a 100pip SL on the original 3 trades.....they would all be stopped out now anyway...

But either way...maybe giving results would be nice...

And maybe I missed it....but the last trade you did on your Blog ( only looked there as you had the link as your Signature)...but how did that AUD trade go.....maybe I missed the results of that one ....not sure...I know it was not posted on the Blog as of last night..and the trade was over a week ago...

I also notice you like to give Percentages of your wins..using the PL but the losses...well thats another thing I guess..

And Personally I think counting BE trades as wins is a bit misleading as to the trade results....the trade was taken BUT it did not win....so either dont count it or give WINS , LOSSES and BE trades based on total trades.
Logic being....I could have 100/100 Breakeven trades and tell everyone I have a 100% win rate.

Hello Angler long time no post, it must be that FF is really clean now. LOL.
I have not looked at that thread for a long time...are they still getting 100% win rate?
I have been on another thread discussing NFA silly rules...and brokers...pretty soon I will be called a broker's cheap girl
I can only handle one thread at a time..

Hey Billye, have you heard from Warren Buffet regarding buying your system?
buf owns a bucketshop for system seller

if you wanna sell something to him,
he collects a lunch fee averaging >0.1million through public bid

let's say his lose rate is 1%, stop/loss is -10 million
but win rate is 99%, take/profit is 0.1*99%....
so overall the P/L is neautral or b/e.

but the bid could go to something much more than 0.1 mil sometimes...
so overall he still profit from selling lunch.

the only guy made money having lunch from buf used the lunch as a TV ads to promote his own stock holdings...
then after news report of this, his holdings rose 5 times the cost of lunch with buf....

except for that I do not see a way to bid the lunch & avoid being scammed by buf!

the resurrect of something from the bin will wake up angler

hi all...


Billye...nah that would not wake me...nothing would surprise me here..

But by having a Commercial section to the forum is opening a gate that will be way to hard to close again...

And if people try to sell things now,,,they will not be booted but will probably be moved to the new Commercial section.....even though the sneaky nature of what some of these people attempt to do should be a warning....NOT given a section in the forum...

BREAKING NEWS!!! Word has spread throughout FF of multiple bannings on the Mentor Thread, http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=187432

Since those members will no longer be able to voice their opinion there, I would like them to know that this thread is here for them to post if they feel the need. I am sure that neither Jwentro nor Angler would have a problem with that.

Cause we don't take words at face value...the proof is only in the pudding.

As one of the banned, I welcome anyone to read all of my posts on the thread in question, starting from the beginning.
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=187432
I made several sincere attempts to steer the thread back towards the title and remained neutral throughout. If anything, I held a pro-mentor bias as did the OP. I asked for no proof of anything and didn't participate in the mudslinging that permeated all but the first few pages of the thread. In fact here is a sample of my offensive posting:

To turn a bit back toward the original discussion about mentors and worthwhile investments: Seven hundred dollars isn't a tremendous amount of money. And in trading there are no guarantees of anything. In trading and searching for worthwhile instruction, reasonable expectations are called for. I don't believe a $700 investment in any trading service is going to be a guaranteed ticket to success. But combined with work and research and some more training, paid or otherwise, a good program could undoubtedly be a step in the right direction.

To be fair, I haven't heard too many complainers coming from Jacko's fold. And the few that do speak out don't seem entirely bitter--not the way some one would if they'd been out and out scammed. The majority seem content and that has to mean something. If they're happy with the service and what they're learning from it, then they're getting their money's worth.


Apparently neutrality and an honest attempt to contribute didn't fulfill the agenda of the OP. I can think of no other reason for being banned.

All the best to the OP and his endeavors and agendas.

What I find strikingly odd about the whole signal service in question is that members have to agree never to reveal the results. That is quite strange, if you have good results, why would you swear your pupils to secrecy? I would do it the other way around, let them show the results as promotion.
And now censorship creeps its ugly head, as I know of at least 3 members that contributed there objectively and were banned too.

Just so you know, you'll be swimming through a cesspool of blatant promotion and idle bragging. It might be more pleasureable to gouge out your own eyes with a screwdriver.
It's the epitome of "take my word for it".

There is a buzz over the net ( on other forums) that FF acctually encorages this kind of forums because they bring a lot of traffic. And people that try to expose the truth...guess what? get BANNED !

Is it truth?
