Very good post, countex. At least one poster has said to move on and forget about Edge, and let's concentrate on trading. I say to never forget about Edge, and to always keep his memory alive as a lesson to all, including me, that there are scammers and thieves out there who hide behind the anonimity of the internet. Edge will be back. Whether it's the "real" Edge or some other scammer looking to make a fast buck. I used to have this notion that scammers had a heart, and they would have remorse, and would realize the errors of their ways. The sad truth is they don't. To people like Edge, it's a game. We are like sheep ready to be fleeced. Edge and those like him have no soul. They rip people's hearts out without a care. Edge is reading these words now and laughing, as if I'm some fool. You can't convert people like Edge, and make him go straight. He'll be back, under some other name. If not Edge, some other scammer. The lesson learned is that we all need to be wary. We all need to be on guard. we all need to ask for proof of what people are contending. Edge would always say "prove it up". Somewhat ironic, because he never could or did. Oddly this is what pathological liars do. They ask others to do what they can't. Be on guard for the future Edge's. The ones dressed in flowery language with an air of superiority.
Dislikedfinally the scam is over. It is a known fact, edgetrader is a loooooooser. The guy had so many opportunities and he blew them away. In fact, even if ha had been nice to those people who he stole from, they would have forgave him, but he insisted on appearing as superior to them and that he was in full control.
Lessons learned:
Gather all the information that you can before entering a trade. More is better.
Try to make your system as mechanical as possible, at least 80%
As edge/Keith never made any money in forex. Do opposite of him.
