Do you know this guy personally ? Are you sure he is not BSing you ?
A HF manager managing no less that 20M$ per client, really has the time to sit on skype all day long teaching people how to trade ?
FF is full of wonders anyway
He was fairly high up at the brokerage as well.
Honestly? I never expected him to spend as much time with me as he does on Skype. We had been friends, but I figured he would be too "big time" to keep chatting with me.
Skype.......Relationships.
They are good stuff.
He forces me out of the nest too, so it's not like he just feeds me signals or his trades.....he oftentimes pauses us and says "no you tell me what you think".
I'm not selling anything, and neither is he, so I guess you may take my word on this. I have no reason to lie to you.
He makes nothing from helping me. We've just been friends a long time and then he got kind of successful.

Before Forex I was tall, and clean shaven. Now I am an Ewok.
rofl.. I know. Freaking killing me with its stubbornness. Should have closed my position earlier and been patient.. Man me and patients one of this days! Cya tomorrow bud.
Sooooo many times I wish I had closed my positions 10 pips in profit instead of waiting for 20-30.
Then one day I did the math on getting out 10 pips in profit, re-assessing and getting back in as price action dictated.
I've done MUCH better, with the smaller profit taking and higher frequency of trades, but I CAP how many Lots I can have in play at any given time.
I don't read the news, until the weekend, and then it's just so that I "have a clue what's going on".
I let the charts and price action tell me when to get in, and I'm using wider stop losses than normal (because of all of the whipsaws and SL hunts lately), and when I'm 10 pips in profit, I pretty much always go into a BE SL mode, and around 12-15 pips profit (or as price momentum dictates) I'll cash out half the position and let the rest roll with a BE SL, or I'll cash out the whole thing, sit out and re-assess.
I'm at a point in my trading where I allow myself to have 5 open lots at any given time.
I did hold 2 longs from last friday, but that's because I pretty much knew we were breaking 1.3 this week. It was obvious.
I'm flat now! Going to bed! Tired, and rambling.
Everyone get your pips tonight! See you with coffee in hand in the AM!
