::Why Oh Why V ForexMaster55::

I started this joint journal because of the disruption an ongoing discussion has and may continue to cause in the Cable Update here. I will invite ForexMaster55 to join me here to post his trades. It appears after a brief association during the last 12 hours there is no love lost between us.

For background to why this happened you can visit some of our original posts below. Edit: Scott removed the pages referred to as you'll note below in his comment. I'm not surprised. So I have removed the link on the 8 "chapters" below. But I'll leave the titles here. Wish I'd copied and pasted.

1. The start of our mutual dislike.

1. Profit in a few minutes - NOT!

1. No answer - yet.

1. The master speaks - not me.

1. Always use a stop loss.

1. Confusion.

1. Sorted - say use a stop loss always but don't.

1. Mine's a large.

Let battle commence. Simple rules which can be varied or added to before we commence are:-

1. 5 lot maximum.

1. All orders to include a SL and TP.

1. Open trades may be varied but posted before such variation occurs.

1. Orders to be placed within 30 seconds of post time.

1. All orders are immediate execution unless noted otherwise.

1. A 5 minute auto update statement is to be published for verification.

1. An independent adjudicator to be appointed for disputes.

There we are ForexMaster55. Sir, over to you. Micro, mini or standard real money account or a demo if you wish. The winner to be declared by pure profit and I would suggest it goes to a charity of the loser's choice. Winners all round then.

Finally, does anyone fancy being an adjudicator? This is a silly idea but if we don't use a demo it will be for a good cause. And it may prove entertaining. The date to commence at your discretion ForexMaster55. I'm ready now. And please post additional thoughts if you wish to participate ForexMaster55.

Let's get it on! :

a competition huh?

well, may the best trader win!



my pips are on "why oh why"

Very kind. But I know the other person will have his followers too. Trouble is, they're all him. And to stop that I would suggest no one with less than 50 posts is allowed to post here. What do you reckon ForexMistress69?

Maybe not. It'll add to the fun. Fewer rules the better.

Ha ha, fun and nice initiative Why Oh Why.

Im looking forward to be on the sideline

May the best guy winn and the looser laugh anyway...

My thoughts entirely.

Offers please? It may need two or three to keep us in line. Back in 7 hours.

" 3. Your stop Loss always should be set at 12 - 15 points no more."

I believe this to be the most ridiculous statement I have ever heard, and my knowledge of trading is miniscule!

I see dimitri is here at the moment and you spend a lot of time in FF but never post. If you are who I think you are I know you won't have time to ajudicate but it'd be nice if you said hello.

Careful though, he'll bite your head off.

Well i'll kick him in the 'nads!

a duel huh? this should be interesting

btw, why oh why, we have procedures in place to make sure one computer has one username. not much multiple personalities around here. and i just confirmed that forexmaster has no matches.

EDIT: just chatted with smjones and he has a good point that this FXMaster guy is fairly new and already getting into heated battles, which is never a good sign (i assumed he was established member). we will hesitantly let the duel go on, but if it gets too far from the subject of trading we are going to have to put the nix on it

Hi smjones,

I believe that you are one of the moderators here, and although you've got to keep it civil, what's wrong with handbags at ten paces? Boys will be boys afterall!

woah thats magic Merlin! smjones' post just disappeared!

ok, this is going to be interesting, let the battle begin

Let the games begin... LOL

Hi there, please repair the broken link above

Those posts have been removed, because they detracted from the trading thread of GBPUSD Update. They were of little value and were part of an on going arguement. So, we can start fresh here...

... Trade On!

I volunteered to Why oh Why to be a moderator of this little shindig. So, by all means, get the ball rolling.

Pull it when you feel like it. It is my guess he'll get extremely abusive if he starts to lose. But the journey may prove entertaining.

BTW I have 4 computers on 2 different connections and a VPN. Would that mean I can be at least 8 users or just 3? Plus a fair few proxys going via Brazil and Australia because of certan online gambling restrictions with some very popular sites.
