{quote} No Ming, actually I can't. You can't "see" the chart, and there is nothing I can do about that. Until you get busy learning how to correctly see a chart, I am afraid that you will never find those Unicorns. Whether you think you can or think you can't, you will be right. Trading is a complicated business. You have to find the right combination of pairs to trade. You have to know when to trade when you do see a signal, you have to know what the indicators on your chart do until you graduate from that. You have to get your money management...

There is no evidence for the existence of Unicorns and forex-millionaires-trader-at-home. That is the point, silly.

Now let's go back to your premise a few posts ago ..

The "lack of evidence is not absence of evidence" ?

Would you like to start over ?

All right since you are so desperately begging for cases of millionaire at-home forex traders, I have found some for you. I have known about this for a long time but have actually forgotten about her. Yes the traders are WOMEN, take it and weep:

This Japanese housewife made $8.5 MILLION in forex trading, pure forex trading with no other income sources and she only got found out because she got caught evading taxes. http://ughamadusixtusemeka.blogspot....ing-forex.html and from Reuters: http://www.reuters.com/article/us-ja...26245420070824

And there are other housewives in Japan that makes $12,000 trading forex IN HOME while doing chores and taking care of kids; she might not be as impressive as the one who made $8.5 million and may not qualify as "milllionare-at-home forex traders" according to your narrow definition, but $12K a month is still impressive (I am sure you are several universes away from making that much money from your forex trading that's why you are bitching and whining on the forum about it can't be done) and in 1 one year that's $144K and in about 7 years, she's a millionaire if she keeps up those returns every year and the article is written in 2011 so she's well on her way.

http://www.wallstreetdaily.com/2011/...tors-in-japan/

So there you have it. Millionaire-at-home forex traders DO exist and mind you they are RETAIL forex traders just like us NOT professional traders from the bank nor were they ever trained or worked as traders at those banks; they are just ordinary housewives. SO it can be done and it has been done and it is done everyday by people who don't go onto a forum and bitch and whine about how it can't be done and how it's impossible, wah wah...

Yeah, i know trading stock is popular with housewives in Japan. And although it is not forex there is a famous Japanese man who is not educated in trading at all but has built a multimillion dollar fortune trading from home. Don't remember his name and right now cant be bothers to look. I know he recently made 25mil in one trade. Yes, from home. Does not work for a bank or investment firm. Is just an at home retail trader.

Yeah and this is specifically about trading FOREX not even stocks. So let's see our whiner Mingary has to say about this, what kind of whacky "disqualifying" condition he can come up with this time do dismiss these millionaire-at-home-retail forex traders. LOL

whatever the troll/shills agenda is they will not 'come around' and change their views so good luck

some forums deal with resident trolls appropriately, this forum does not. it's a sleezy business in which info wars play a part so what do you expect

i tried many times telling world wide invest forums to correct the many glaring spelling mistakes on their home page... like they could give a fvck lol

Hopefully this forum will deal with trolls like Mingary. What he is preaching will not be good for the business. I don't think FXCM, one of the biggest sponsor of this forum is too thrilled to see somebody going all over the forum telling people to stay off forex trading because it's impossible to make money from it, blah blah blah...

I don't really care one way or another but I just want people to aware of things for what they are. Is Forex trading easy? No! Is forex trading risky? Yes! But can you make a living out of trading forex even become millionaires? Absolutely!!

that is the crux of the argument i think. is it more profitable for the type of brokers who sponsor a site like this to keep the successful traders to a minimum while keeping a revolving door of people who give up?

Especially what whiners like Mingary is "preaching" is really not true. We all know that. If there REALLY is no money to be made in forex trading, then yeah I don't care who sponsored this forum, people needs to be told about it but we all know it's not true. There are people who are making comfortable living trading in forex and some even became very affluent doing that. So do we REALLY need those kind of negativities that's not even true? To people like Mingary, that might be true cuz he's never succeeded in forex trading, judging from his comments. LOL

And if forex trading is a "revolving door" of quitters, well many successful traders at one time were quitters. How many traders have NEVER blown an account or two? Just because a trader quit or blew his/her account, does that mean he/she will never be a successful trader? You never know whether you are going to make it until you make it till the end. For naysayers like Mingary, well he will never know so I guess thus his broken record of "it's not possible, it's not possible...". LOL

That is correct, for the third time. And, now, you have even been given evidence. If you ignore that, then your cognitive bias is clear. Which one of us is the "true believer"?

Don't give up! Forex training is about discipline, risk management and psychology. Look at it like you doing a degree or a master. It takes a long time to understand the market. Also, when we start a new job, it takes time to learn how things are done, understanding policies and procedures take time. It would be better to take on a full-time job, so that you are not pressured to chase after money. Continue with your trading and once you feel that you have enough money to transition, then go back to full-time trading. Its one of the best tool anyone could have to make money and change their life.

Ming lost some money and now he's trying trying to prevent other people from doing so, because that's his own way to get his money back.

Good choice FXstation! I will quit trading Forex as well this month. It simply SUCKS!! I have been doing it 6 years, 3 years learning and 3 years profitable. But hey let's be realistic.....evene an unexperienced gardener earns more money on the long run than a good trader and he is probably much happier. He enjoys the sun, the birds, nature and more importantly is in contact wit person. Trading is a a horribly lonely activity...........just for a couple of $ and pride. How many traders didn't end up with suicide. Enjouy life buddy and give up this shit, the only ones you make rich are the brokers......fuck'm
