It's not a joke and no you won't....
Your words betray you trucco. You see me as simply paying them 25 pips....and therein lies your problem. It's your perspective that's screwed. While I acknowledge paying the premium, I'm more focused on the profit above and beyond that 25. To me, the premium is simply the cost of doing business. But for you, it sets off all sorts of alarms and bells and whistles and ohmigosh mm why would you do that!!?!?! Worry not about me trucco, because I'm fine. Instead of asking me why I stick with a broker I think you need to examine yourself.
Compujock's got it right. Originally pissed, compujock had an epiphany of sorts and understands the profit potential. Adjust, improvise and dominate by simply taking what the defense gives you.
And for the last time trucco, breakout strategies, newstrading strategies have been around since before the foundation of the world. Books have been written about these strategies. It's been all over the internet since who knows when. So we aren't exactly revealing TOP SECRET information. I just don't need someone calling my broker asking questions regarding my successful trading practices, raising the broker's radar.
Also, millions of people aren't getting into FOREX and beginning to trade news...that's just an irresponsible statement. Yes FOREX trading has increased but everyone's not trading the news because for the most part they're being told not to and secondly they're probably trading minis and getting "screwed" (in their uninformed opinion) by the brokers.
So you'll talk trucco .... you will complain.... you will find a conspiracy between governments, brokers, bankers, etc., etc., but until you change, nothing will change.
Have a good life.
I agree with many things you say MM, but I stick on the fact that adjusting to your broker making you earn 25 pips less then before sounds more that you dont want to look for a better broker or dont have time, instead of adapting and considering this as a business costs.
In business ,costs must be cut as much as possible, according to the quality of the result ofcourse, but I dont believe that there are not better brokers.
Regarding the TOP SECRET issue, dont worry, im not worried that our little discover to become rich is divided with others, Im only saying that the volumes of new forex traders is getting exponential, and invite everybody at the same time to trade the news, is unproductive for all of us, for you too.
The prove is that your broker already moved this way...and I dont believe that your broker needs a call from somebody to do this..
I believe more that your broker adjust....to the new situation..
Maybe is a case, but mine did aswell..and never happend before.
Too many traders trading the same way, at the same moment.
People always traded news, and always will do, thats normal, but each trader must take his time to do it , to feel confortable and get ready to discover the way to do.
Telling the world on each forum what and how to do at the same time is unproductive from my point of view.
One more thing. Im not thinking there are consipancies.
The way I write can maybe be misanderstood from you native speakers, but I dont find better words to decribe things sometimes.
Maybe I exagerate in one way, but you do in the other way..
You are telling the world that making money with forex is very easy..
You popup into forums telling that you just made some thousand $$ in 5 minutes and everybody starts to follow you.
This is also not objective.
I dont think is only my idea or personal experience to see stop huntings, freezings etc etc.. Trading is not easy by itself, nd becomes impossbile if brokers are not even honest.
Well, as I said, I dont know why you describe the forex world as the world of happines, where I guess for the majority of traders is not.
