Quoting CurrencyMan
A Day or so ago I posted a message offering to teach anyone FREE OF CHARGE how to join the 5% Club.

Only one person took me up on my offer. I have been clear and 100% transparent. There is NO BENEFIT to me other than help another human being improve his trading.

This is your thread and I always listen to your rules. Since I am familar with some of the things you suggested I will ask Luke Sky Walker if he can set it up. If not I will just teach, share and enjoy without anyone learning by doing it one on one privately.

We live in strange times...
Let me chime in, as I'm part of the discussion. It does NOT matter to me one bit as how/where the results of this experiment are posted or not posted. I already have a FF journal thread and more than happy to post the results/updates there. There are NO intents to offend. (Note - unfortunately FF Trade Explorer only allows linking for FXCM MT4 account, whereas the one that we set up is FXCM Trading Station account).

Bottom Line: CurrencyMan is genuine in his intention to teach, and I'm interested in learning from him. Regardless of the outcome, I'm grateful!!!

That is true but did you know that FXCM TSII logins work on MT4 as well? This was not the case in the past but as of February 2012 it is. Give it a shot. Try and use your TSII credentials in trade explorer. I've done it in the past and it worked for me.

After nearly 5 years of being here on FF, nobody has ever made my ignore list until a few days ago.

Over posting copy/paste analysis from other websites is of no value to me, and really shouldn't be to anyone else. It's not hard to find that information and offering absolutely zero insight of one's own is definitely no value.

A simple link to an article and some analysis could be useful, but the way CurrencyMan has been spamming the thread with this stuff got to the point where it was a pain to scroll through a bunch of junk to follow the...
Geppy,

You may have a point from your perspective, but for me CM's copy/paste activity reduces my need to hunt down the stuff myself. I don't read everything he posts but I do skim through and if I catch something that interests me, I read the detail.

As for the Iggy list, it's a fantastic tool and I use it often. Your use of it is certainly the right thing to do when you come across a poster whose content does not interest you. So, smart move buddy. That's the way to do it.

Cheers

I suspect that's all July was and it will probably stay that way through August and half of September until the German court decision regarding the ESM... or until Greece defaults... again.

I could not seem to log on to FXCM MT4 using my FXCM TSII id and password.

The MT4 account id is 7-digit (#######)
The TSII account id is FX+10-digit (FX##########)

I tried the whole TSII account id, and the 10-digit only id, and the last 7-digit of the TSII id - but none seems to work.

Maybe it's not doable for DEMO accounts???

Ahh I think I know why it won't work. Your demo account may be with FXCM Canada. If it is, then forget what I told you. FXCM Canada is not part of the FXCM system. They use their own systems there at Freidberg Direct as I believe they are only an agent for FXCM and not actually owned by them.

I have FXCM UK demo -

After I wrote my last post, I tried it the other way around. Thus, I logged on to my FXCM TSII account using my MT4 account ID and password. It works!!!

So now I can use the TSII demo account to do the trading, but link the MT4 version of this same account to FF Trade Explorer for those who want to follow my progress.

Jeez im so technologically handicapped I couldnt even figure out how to link my account to one of those live trading journals.

I even tied MyFX book with no luck.

My trading log is actually a Moleskin journal with a pen. lol

That being said I dont think CM is a bad guy or a bad influence or a bad trader. I enjoy his fundamental articles and if everyone doesnt like them because they are lengtthy then maybe just post up brief synopsis with the link to the full article. I for one read all of them and digest them because that sort of stuff interests...
It always amuses me when someone offers an opinion with no facts behind it. I have learned one thing in life if I have learned anything.

You will now learn it as well if you do not happen to know.

When someone says something about you the odds are very good that they are not talking about you. Why ? Whatever is in your heart is in your soul and then in your behaviour.

If you are a mean spirited dishonest person then you will see everyone else the same way.

PipTrapper understands certain things and I will leave it there. The post was not proper and not in the spirit of the thread. Anyone has the right to use the ignore button. Anyone can comment however accusations are not part of the agenda here or if not accusations then suggestions which only plant dark seeds of disharmony.

As Wulgar so clearly said,
You cant make everyone happy in this world. There will always be detractors and naysayers. We just have to be able to discern who they are and mearly stay in alignment with our moral and ethical compasses.

Let's quit the petty arguments and get focused here.

I think CMs articles are great, my only complaint is the length, you could just post the title and one or two paragraphs and the link and I think that would be perfect.

I strongly discourage this kinda Road Show! I am really not interested to see how this account grows 5% per month or whatever.

If your method works you explain it to the public and thats all ... there is no need to use the space for free personal business advertisement.

Why this 'team up'? Any new idea?!
yes exaxctly,
demo account are good enuff for only understanding the platform,otherwise its just like comparing apple to oranges.for educational purpose about trading its best to start with real money and lose it or gain it and see how u behave in differnet painful and exhilarating scenarious currency man i dont know y ur even bringing that demo account stuff here at all and i dont think its relevant for this thread purposes.it will be good to our spirit sometime to see where ur putting ur money,levels long or short and and ur original ideas for future and things like that......

if u r trying to teach noobs then its not an appropriate place to do that,becos most of the ppl here have 5+yrs of experience and pretty well aware of all the technical,fundamental,mm and sentimental stuff and wish to move ahead.respect.

I do agree with you. I do it because I so much want people to read it and learn. I will try to keep the paste brief. Sometimes I have no link as it does come in my emails. I get about 300 a day.

I will not be teaching them on this thread. I do not agree with you though that it is better to lose real funds to learn.

Perhaps it works for you and that is good.

I demo traded for almost three years before I was confident enough not to lose money for people. Perhaps it is because I trade other people's money that I was extra cautious.

Your opinion is noted. Good Trading.

Snippet:

Friday’s Jobs Report: More Lies From “our” Big Brother

By Paul Craig Roberts

August 03, 2012 "Information Clearing House" -- In his report on the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ latest jobs and unemployment report, statistician John Williams (shadowstats.com) writes: “The July employment and unemployment numbers published today, August 3rd, were worthless and likely misleading. . . . Suspecting at one time that the jobs numbers were being rigged against him by his own Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), President Richard M. Nixon proposed a new approach to reporting the numbers. Although the proposed changes never were implemented, several decades later the BLS adopted reporting methods that were somewhat parallel to the late president’s thinking.”

I will spare the readers an explanation of Williams’ account of the manipulation that is occurring as it is too arcane for the general reader.

Instead, Let’s just apply common sense. According to the BLS, there were 163,000 new nonfarm payroll jobs created in July. This figure is about 13,000 more jobs than is needed to keep pace with population growth. Therefore, the unemployment rate should have declined fractionally. Instead, the unemployment rate (U3) rose from 8.2% to 8.3%.

In case you missed the point, new jobs, a net figure, rose and so did the unemployment rate!

Moreover, the alternative, but much less reported, jobs report from the Household Survey found that the economy lost 195,000 jobs in July.

The government that lies to you about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, about Iraq’s al Qaeda connections, about the Taliban in Afghanistan, about Osama bin Laden, about Libya and Gadhafi, about Iranian nukes, about Syria, about Pakistan, about Yemen and Somalia, about Bradley Manning, about Julian Assange and Wikileaks, indeed about everything under the sun, also lies to you about jobs, unemployment, economic recovery, GDP growth, 9/11, the “terrorist threat,” everything. Try to find anything that the government has said over the past 6 presidential terms that is not a lie.

Question: what advantage does MetaTrader 4 platfrom offer to a regular platform?

The current progrem i have i am using for 1 year now but it does not have Fibb or lets me add trendlines

It does offer the standard technical tools but i would like to add Fibbs and trenlines now.

So i have been searching now for a other broker to open a demo account
But many of these sites also offer a MT4 platform.

So if you would like.
I would want some info from the people to trade with MT4 or know a thing or two about it.
