Now both threads are plagued by the usual nonesense late calling, bad analysis, clashes of ego, spam, and so called 'Guru's' wanting everyone to know how great they are (,!) but this thread in particular has gone downhill in recent times. and it is reflected in the porr atendance now.

Happy New Year to you BBmac ! Your observations is right but the reasons are a bit off. It is not late calling or bad analysis that has driven away the flock, it is "I want to teach you do how to make money"- Gurus. One did contribute something for tne Newbies but the other was a JOKE - knew all the theory in books but come one man - can anyone posting over 100 threads a day can be a serious trader ? Nothing better to do so here is
FF and a good flock ! Who know might get a few Accounts ! This fellow says Hedge Funds using 50:1 margina giving back 18% pa are good. Wow. Must be a plant from one of them.
I advised many newbies how to fend them off-- warn them of Iggy but I suppose they get afraid of the "erudition" shown. These guys were against anyone posting their Stats - we don't want big Swinging Ds here. I thought such postings would be an inspiration ! One newbie cried (in PM) that he posts more than 6 trades - the Guru picks on the Cable one and goes on to tell him that he is no good. That guy was livid but nervous.
This Guru Iggied me along with another because I sided with this guy he was opposting. I Iggied back in 30 mins asa I saw that. These are the guys who have murdered this thread. The other guy I shooed off by threatening to Iggy him if he commented on my trades again.Not that I post often due to this very reason . no time to waste in BS. This particular guy has "exported" himself to EuroUSD thread and makes posts (I read when others quote him) saying people in EuroUSD thread are "suicidal" : they do not follow him !
Many people come here to make friends - trading is not the only thing in life. You will have to think of throwing these people out if this thread is to be revived.
