I'm glad you opened up a thread especially for us ladies. I am a brand new member and it seems somehow less intimidating to chat "just us girls."

I can't wait to learn from all of you. I guess even from you guys peeking on this page... I suppose you might be helpful too!

...there are probably 50% or more females in my classes.
I have found I'm the only female in the classes I go to, or if I'm lucky there's one other...the rest are all men...so I'm intrigued about your classes...


Like it or not, gender does make a difference, the way of looking at the world, and expressing ones thoughts to the world, often comes out of lived experience...and the living experience of being a woman in this world is something men will never have...and vice versa. So the 'flavour' of this thread might be very different to any other thread...who knows until we do it.

Clearly there's a 'flavour' to the posts by men on this thread who don't seem to be able to bear the existence of a thread that isn't directed at them...all I can say is you guys have got some serious emotional work to do

I started a Female Traders thread in the Trading Discussion section on June 20, 2009. It flourished and was a great source of support and information for other women traders, as well as a number of our guys friends. We had to run the gauntlet of the usual sexist bs that surfaces but it went on to become a very popular thread.....

..... Until FF management decided they should move it to the Interactive Section with zero consultation, and thereby expose the female traders here to further unwanted attention (all we wanted to do was trade, share charts, and be supported by other women traders).

It mattered a great deal to me to be able to have a forum for mentoring other female traders, but the FF boys club decided women didn't have a need to be supported by other women in a place they felt safe to do so.

So our lovely thread still resides in the FF prison (Members Lounge) where it was sin binned away from the public eye. Two of the original members still post there.

Good luck ladies with this new women traders thread.

Jade Gate, that's some awesome thread...why can't we get it back into Trading Discussions??
ty Lovinit, we liked (loved) it too, with a passion....

as for why they won't move it back.... because FF management refused the many requests from myself and others. It was as if they just couldn't admit they stuffed up or acknowledge that women traders had a legitimate reason for wanting their thread where it was in Trading Discussion.

It was also very disappointing because up to that point in time, I had been the most popular commercial author in FF during 2009 (on the other side of this sheet), regularly pulling 20-60 votes per article uploaded and thousands of webpage hits - yet instead of showing me a modicom of respect, they rode rough-shod over the top and then couldn't admit they got it wrong. The lack of respect in this spoke volumes about FF's priorities and general lack of regard for the traders who post here.

FF has lost many very accomplished and knowledgeable traders over the years for similar reasons - from a business model perspective, it seemed breathtakingly dumb to disenfranchise your most valuable assets.

It wasn't always like it is now, there were some seriously outstanding traders contributing to these pages... few and far between now.

I want to take this time to apologies anybody that I offended. It was not my intention. Please accept my apology. I am sorry.

Like I said, females do so many things better than men and that is why I always want to hear the female point of view.

If I had known it would upset some of my FF members I would have refrained. Maybe I should have known better.

does it really matter if you are male or female as a trader, i guess some might say females think differently than males, however surely its the capability of ones mind which leads to a success in being a forex trader, as an example i am bi swing both ways, maybe that gives me the benefit of the doubt when trading, either way i think u should be judged by your success in the markets and not gender.. my 2 pennies worth at least.. admirable topic though..if judged is the correct word to used, however living in this dimension we surely have to play by the rules, buy low sell high ... um er .. or was that sell high buy low.. see now i am confused, but then thats me always have been.. good day to you all and happy trading..btw i had a far greater success rate trading wearing high heels, instead of trainers.. over to you einstein on that one

The only thing that matters in forex is results. I personally don't care who or what is producing positive pips. If females are producing positive pips then i am a student-same as i would be to a male producer. So good luck ladies. BTW I am a male producer.

Clearly there's...
AMEN... and very well put. (Hope I'm not stepping on any toes here as a guy)

The views on exactly the same subject matter vary VASTLY between men and women due to exactly what you've stated here Lovinit. "Life Experience"

This is why once men and women get their blinders off (respectively), the two halves make one "better" whole. If folks nowadays could simply realize the value of ADDING those different views together, instead of trying to justify keeping them separate, Oh what a world it could be IMHO.

I for one not only look forward to, but am grateful for the viewpoints of women (on many subjects) because I've found that 9 times out of 10, when I "Add" their views and knowledge to my own, it balances out MY thinking and thus opens doors I would have otherwise walked right past.

I wish you gals all the best and I will follow this thread as it grows.
