Hi phil13,
Thanks for the comment on my post. I am not using any blackbox system after reading FTI thread, I guess I am slow to grab the concepts presented by chief.

As FTI mentioned, having little knowledge is dangerous.

I am now re-reading the thread and also reading the book The Ultimate Trading Guide. Some of the trading ideas in the book are similar to the concepts in this thread.

I think sooner or later, I might need some assistance from the seniors. Will go to FTI lounge then...mmm.. I am still under probation, so unable to access yet!!

Any update on FTI (Chief) ??

Hi Friends,

I'm very sad, but unfortunately I still have no information about how fti is doing. So all we can do is to send him our very best wishes and some very positive thoughts.

Something I want to do, before all these nice people from the TAF Family are drifting away, I want to invite you to the "TAF Lounge". It is a place in the members area of FF. There have not been much actions during the past 2 years, but it can be the place, where we can discuss all things, without cluttering this very unique monumental thread of fti.

I also want to invite you to something sepcial. This Morning an idea comes up to my head: Why not setting up an online Room, that is dedicated to discuss all apsepects of the markets and fti's teachings? It will be based on "GoTo Meeting" and allow us to have Voice Chats, Keyboard based conversations, sharing our screens, to sicuss some topics in a very visual and easy way.

I know, we have soken about that many times already, but this time I decided just to do the first step. From this friday on, you are invited to join in at 14:00 GMT into the "TAF Meet & Greet". It will take place every friday. It is meant to discus everything you want to, as long as it is related to fti's teachings. We can have also a kind of "Main Topic" for every session, that could be presented by one os us. You see, many many opportunities for us to stay connected....

Ok, in case you want to join in, here is what you need:

  1. https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/468171925
    Meeting ID: 468-171-925
  2. You will be connected to audio using your computer's microphone and speakers (VoIP). A headset is recommended.
  3. Depending on if you have been using the GoTo Meeting software before, a download of the software may take place.

I wish you all the best and a relaxing weekend.
Hope to see you later on ;-)

Niels

Hi All! I have been following FTI for a few years, but never wrote any posts. Just would like to say Thank You FTI for all your efforts to teach new traders. I am missing you sir.... God Bless you and your family.

Hi IgorZ,
It seems that we share same story: following Fti and TAF conversations for a few years but never tried to be actually part of it (until now, when Fti is no longer activ participant). Actually there were quite a few that have posted here in the last few months, just to say 'thanks'!

So how did you discovered this thread and what made you read it?

My curiousity started with the fact that the thread was most of the time on the FF home page - top of the list for the section of trading discussions. And secondly because it has such a bug number of posts, going on for a number of years ! Amazing, considering that there is so much stuff on the world wide web, so many forums and so many thrads on FF alone (most of them abandoned and forgotten after a few weeks).
I'm sure that there are many other traders like us who have discovered this 'golden nugget' - I mean all the wisdom and life&trading experience shared by Fti with the everyone else.

This is way I'm convinsed that this thread should be kept 'alive' and be again on the top of the list for the "trading discussions" forums.

Anyone else agreeing with me?
If yes, please speak up! ( or rather post your reply )

cheers

indeed
its nothing wrong if you just post in this thread
vidio posting or a general conversation
with the aim that this thread remains on recalls as the basis of teaching FTI
also that this thread does not sink and
lost or forgotten
and so this thread can be read by new people who want to learn from the original source

maybe we just fear or concerned if there is some one teaching in this thread are distorted or incorrect implementation or modification or mutate of the original what FTI had teach
or new people who want to learn
but the acceptance and implementation wrong and misguided

"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget
what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Reading the above, TAF and Fti came into my mind.
By reading his posts at a point in time when I was really down, I had regained my belief that I can succeed.

trade safe & control your 'scorpion'!

I agree nothing to be afraid of. FTI's teaching is simple i.e. feel the market/dance the dance
how one do it's his/her ability. Scout is the best thing one can do to feel, but scout at right level.

Hi Friends,

all who have some concerns with posting in fti's thread, becuase you do not want to clutter or disturb it, I want to invite you the the "TAF Longe". You are very welcome there and you can post whatever you want (as long as it is related to fti's teachings).

Hope to see you soon!

If someone asked a question and I were to answer it, I would just refer back to one of fti's posts already explaining it. He has explained pretty much everything and the rest of the work is up to the person. We will always get the snake oil sales men and others misinterpreting but refering back to fti's original posts would be a safer way of explaining things.

Hi,

I thought I will make this post.
I found this amazing thread about a month ago and opened my demo account and already something has really clicked in my mind....

I was really struggling for many years with my trading. Today, looking at my current performance I now have something I never had before... which is HOPE that I might finally become profitable someday.

I believe I own a lot to the creator of this fantastic thread! FTI, whereever you are I hope you are alright and I cannot express by words and with my limited knowledge of English language my gratitude to you for all you have done!!!

I would like to share my performance for a month that I found this thread. Not to show off but maybe to help some struggling traders to also regain faith and hope in what they do. I know this could be very important as I myself was feeling really down and almost gave up on trading after 6 or so years doing it. These results are demo of course. My plan is to get to 100 trades and then I will go for the live account once again. I am still working on my risk control proceedures and other things to improve overall so another 100 trades will be a good check before I go live again I think...
And then maybe I will have a chance to really make it happen with my trading career...

Good trading to all and I wish you success!

Kind Regards,
Adilius

P.S. Full detailed statement is in the attachment

I just finished reading the first 1000 pages, and feel confidence jumping to the newest posts for a discussion. Seems it's a bit too late. Maybe it's a good time to focus on reading/digesting the first 200 pages as many of you suggested.
Thanks to the creator and contributors of this great thread!
