WTF were you doing there in the first place??????
alright, I'm going to tell you. there was hope that took me there. I really hoped for a place, where a couple of people could discuss things in a matter that wasn't even thinkable in the e/u-thread.
I tried to monitor a handful of pairs and had a set of ideas about them that I brought to the table or tried to develop some kind of strategy from. but apart from the "thx, noted" there was nothing to gain.

meanwhile... (that term always reminds me of "Defender of the Crown"... who remembers?) I lost this hope, as I think, such a place just doesn't exist.

It's all showing off, then.

Remember how we did any type of job (cutting grass etc.) to partake and keep us funded.. Foolish looking back now but as you said, no regrets.
would do anything to relive those years, it wouldn't be the same now...

Little mini forums/signal services never work in this business. The reason that FF is so good is because of the vast number of members, the sh!t always drops out at the bottom eventually.

Limiting yourself to a few members that you don't know the background of, that have no proven history, that don't have the guts to stand up to scrutiny is not going to work.

I can see and accept where you are coming from, the EU thread is just a trainwreck in slow motion. There are very few other threads here on FF worth pariticipating in and it does become a lonely game.

This thread will work, there are some very boneheaded, strong and stubborn indiviuals here that will not take any sh!t and will call it just the way it is. This thread will not be for anyone, it is scary to post in here, you have the top echelon of FF watching you every step, but that is also its stength.

Good traders only get better by hanging out with the top 1%, finding that is the hardest thing.

Will every poster here make it in this business, no, some will fail, some will dissapear into oblivion, but at least the bulk of the traders here will make sure that those that listen and pay attention will pull through eventually.

Do we have some weak links in this thread, yes we do. Will we have some posters here with ulterior motives, yes we will.

I do not expect everyone on my "vouched" list to make it in this business, that is life.

FF works because the law of averages are in its favour, there are 40,000 members here, some will be succesful, and some already are.

I have said it earlier today, to be in this thread, you either know what you are doing, or you have a very thick skin, this thread will make or break you, it is up to you.


The only place to have a proper discussion is wide in the open, for all to see. Hang out that dirty laundry, come up with some ideas, reason things through. There are 1,000's of people reading this, we had over 100k views in the first 3 days. This is it.



Just don't expect me to be Mr. Niceguy, I ain't.
