Hello,

I have an opportunity to talk and interview a Forex Master, a trader successful for 20 years first in stocks, futures and now forex, so I'm preparing a list of questions. Maybe you could add some interesting, creative points of view I could talk about? Most of us would ask the same questions, some of us did (like Jack D. Schwager) but the list is unlimited and the opportunity is rare. What is crucial to you, do you have questions that wake you up in the middle of the night? What would be two most important questions to you (to which you can't find answers in forums, books etc)? If everything goes well I'll try to post the whole (or parts) of the interview.

1. Can you give me some money?
2. Do you have any more money you can give me?

Q1: On a scale from 1-10 how damn hard was it, ie how big/many sacrifices have YOU done to get there

Q2: How many years did it take YOU to get there. Define there as you want

And I hope when the answer is posted that all newcomer who dream of millions within weeks will read the answer

I have a friend who worked on the Floor in Chicago and his only bit of advice to me was find your edge. Since the market is a fluid ever changing environment, what was your first edge in the Forex market and how has it evolved over time?

Would he agree that when it comes to pivot points, support and resistance level the cause and effect are flipped. That is, nowdays all the trading is computer-based, so all the market participants with all the tools handy overcrowd these levels in advance and artificially create those supports and resistances. Therefore, the levels are not caused by fundamental pricing of the currencies, but by traders who expect the levels to be there
