NocturnalFX MT4i Affiliate Program

This program is available for everyone-even if you're not a NocturnalFX MT4i subscriber.

This is a chance for you to earn residual income-while associating yourself with a trade signal provider that believes in full transparency.

The basic idea:
Every account that YOU refer to NocturnalFX Trade Mirror subscription-you will receive a fixed percentage of their performance fee indefinitely (for as long as the client is active).

More details on this program and how to sign up will be given later this month.

I think this applies to trading as well-probably higher percentage of failures.

But the basic idea is that -no matter what business you're into-it's a tough competition out there. Trading is no different. I mean seriously if your edge is defined as "i have the proper mindset and i am patient bla bla bla"..you don't know shit about trading.

I want to ask but can't private message you. I believe MT4i Trade Mirror is limited to only 20 subscribers right? What about FXStat? It can take in more followers without limit right?

yea i think it's stupid that people can't PM commerical member..

anyway yes the default is 20 subscribers-but i was able to increase it. You have to pay MT4i when you go beyond a certain number.

Fxstat may have unlimited subscribers-but they are more expensive for the client. I charge 20% on performance. FXstat charges per trade commission.

Now myfxbook claims they will only charge on profitable trades...so maybe i'll discontinue fxstat and just use myfxbook when it comes out. I'm just trying to give my clients multiple options for following my signals-but also don't want them to overpay.

Yup i'm an angel...

reading the threads on the trading discussion just makes my fucking head explode.

Too many fucking ignorant morons making statements that they have no fucking clue what they're talking about.

And i'm stuck here and can't even put my 2 cents in..that's the worst part.

Stay in your delusional world losers...keep making excuses wannabe traders

I think the worst part is not you being unable to share your views on their thread, but rather they can come to your thread to give you advice ..... LOL.

possibly 'time of tracking' versus 'actual exposure duration'. who knows. what does it really matter as long as they both show gains.
Congratulations ScalaFX for coming out of the closet!

it's just annoying. I mean i use the same 3rd party access for both trackers...

It's FF-all other sites show similar gains to myfxbook. FF Need to get their math straight..

Syed,

Take a look - http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...90#post6458190
yea i saw.

Funny thing was that damn thread ruined me. At one point I turned about 10k into 50k without problems..

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...79#post5060379

then i joined that thread. Good thing is that thread taught me about the importance of managing your risk. I know how to trade well and i consider myself one of the best. But if you're too aggressive (as i was trying to reach that goal of winning that stupid competition)-you will blow.

So I'm TPOTrader now. It's symbolic. I'm disassociating myself from that aggressive trader that I was and started anew.

What's the big deal. Forexsaint-sorry my friend. I hope i didn't offend you. I just wished you didn't violate my privacy like that. But hopefully FF will take your post down.

That experience did help me grow as a trader- so for that i thank ya!

No I think forexsaint should keep that post. As you said, it's a humbling exercise and for Syed's sake too. Notice that he is getting way bit cocky nowadays? Screaming for drawdowns and complaining FF not reporting the full extent of his greatness. No offense but as a potential client I'm worried.

I'm thinking people are confusing that good trader=good person.

WHen i started this thread- i meant it to be about ME-the trader.

I wanted to focus on the psyche that is behind the trading decisions day in and day out-and what it takes to be one of the best and grow from it. In fact, not ONCE did I mention of my trading signal on this thread let alone marketing it until it was moved to the commercial section. Sure-I had a website on my profile-but I thought that as long as i don't publicly post it-i wasn't violating the commercial agenda rule.

I joined FF about 2 years after it was established. I never met another member so bent out of shape on being transparent about his trading. In fact "nocturnal" was my VISION since I started trading to represent transparency in an industry that is filled with smoke. I guess when I started out -this guy was somewhat of an inspiration. So i took the idea and made it into a movement:


http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...46#post4892746
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=62331
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=321529
http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=10010

And now NocturnalFX is probably one of the only signal provider that is being tracked across multiple 3rd party sites-AND that provides access to broker statements (no excel performance bullshit). If I am anymore transparent than this-you might as well know my SSN.

http://www.nocturnal-fx.com/the-system

So yes I am CONFIDENT. Cocky? that's for people to judge. But as a trader- you need a healthy dose of ego to keep pushing.

"I'm not cocky-i'm confident. When you tell me I'm the best it's a compliment..."

How's this for a kick in the nuts?

At first glance-you may say- your broker is out to get you! sound the alarm! stop hunt!

Well I do believe in stop hunt-but on the basis of the market searching for liquidity and flushing out weaker hands. I just happen to be in the radar.

I've also had days where price was literally within 1 pip of my stop and reversed for profit.

So i have to think about those days as well-if not i may fall victim to recency bias and have my trading psyche affected.
