u can't save them all.

and you have made a significant impact on some, as you could see from the comments in last 2 days.

If I remember correctly, then Chandre wrote today that what she learned here, will help her get through. Art of war.

Best regards and take care of yourself,

Some of us found out today that Chandre (DutchAngel), our very own member and one of the building block of the TAF community has been diagnosed with lymphoma cancer stage 3B, she is fighting all she can and has conveyed her deepest gratitude towards FTI for teaching her the way to fight both in trading and in life. As such she feels his teaching has impacted her greatly towards fighting this battle.

Let us as a community here show her our support.

Chandre, fight the beast and give us the victory shout.
Dear Chandre,
I do not know you personally and I have been on this thread only for a short while. Nevertheless, it is really sad to hear what you are going thru' right now.

I pray that you will recover soon... God bless.

With Regards

fti,

I concur with piccolo.
you had given your all and for me that is enough, especially now that you are trying to get your strength back.
it is how we use what you've given us that's causing our problem.

myself as a sample.
since i just chanced upon this community this year, 3 yrs after you started it, i tried to play catch-up by reading from page 1 and the current postings at the same time (eagerness to belong with the community).
i made mistakes along the way.

i decided to slow down.
that's when i started to realize the beauty of your teachings in a simple way:
- send a scout
- if scout gets in trouble, rescue or kill, damage control
- if scout is success, attack with skew, like there's no tomorrow

but of course, it will be really helpful if timing of scout is correct.
this is when other stuff like supply/demand, support/resistance, PA, MM and some of your teachings come in.

in the end, it is I who will make the decision when to deploy my scout and my soldiers, and not you or somebody else.

you showed us the way but its upto us to create our own destiny.

Thanks again and Take care.

"I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone if possible - Jew, Gentile - black man - white.

We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness - not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another. In this world there's room for everyone and the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.

The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls - has barricaded the world with hate - has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical; our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.

The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in man - cries for universal brotherhood - for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world - millions of despairing men, women, and little children - victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say: 'Do not despair.' The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed - the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.

Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes - men who despise you and enslave you - who regiment your lives - tell you what to do - what to think and what to feel! Who drill you - diet you - treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men - machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate, only the unloved hate - the unloved and the unnatural!

Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! In the seventeenth chapter of St Luke, it is written the kingdom of God is within man not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people, have the power - the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful - to make this life a wonderful adventure. Then in the name of democracy - let us use that power - let us all unite. Let us fight for a new world - a decent world that will give men a chance to work - that will give youth a future and old age a security.

By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power. But they lie! They do not fulfil that promise. They never will! Dictators free themselves but they enslave the people. Now let us fight to fulfil that promise! Let us fight to free the world - to do away with national barriers - to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason - a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness. Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us unite!"

It comes from his 1940 satire on Nazi Germany called "The Great Dictator" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032553/

Please feel free to repost anywhere you please. You seem to have leadership qualities yourself for a relatively young person.

I am only reposting something that inspired me. We all have the power to do that.

God is love and thanks to fti, many of us have seen that. That is something I felt when reading Gann's Tunnel book. It's in the bible. Is that his "secret"? The power of love.

That's what gives life meaning. That's what keeps us alive. There is love here, especially for FTI and Dutch Angel. Keep it strong.

Have you read Gann's book? The Tunnel Thru the Air or Looking Back from 1940.

It is part of the teachings here, perhaps for a different reason, but still part of it.

You can download it here.

No problems. I'll have a look at your thread (well, I already did). I would recommend reading at least the first 200 pages of this thread before thinking very carefully about trading OPM (other people's money). I saw someone has offered you their account?

i am afraid im only on few pages my friend i learned about the true fallacy of predicting price, instead of going with it, and that you can never know where the next tick goes. Its about being nimble in the markets. a stop loss is no rescue plan at all. red told me about all rescues, and amazing stories. been getting into rescues, but more on rescuing closed trades . he told me about how its not bulls or bears that gets screwed its the pigs? yeah, and its basically not about bull, bear, its aboutt being in right direciton. and i heard that price comes firts, every thing else second. Always have a know about your VAR, and all probabilities in that single trade. What is risk-exposure, what is possible loss? can i take that loss? how can i minimize it?

Also art of war red introduced the important topics:
every battle is won before it is ever fought.
a general with a small army tha commands good, is no different when he commands a larger army. given hes still good
etc...

i need to do this. its not pride or sense of eagerness. i feel i need to get back in there. really. i want to know myself again.
