Disliked{quote} Ah right. I was targeting 100% instead of the 70. The PA on a friday doesn't behave like it should, I find tuesday, wednesday and thursdays the best days to trade, and not around major news releases on said days and I blame my positions on the friday for not achieving said goal. :nerd: I'll put a Leopard skin man thong on it, that sound ok?Ignored
Disliked{quote} You are exactly the same like Mingary, you lost at this game and are now claiming it has to be a scam because your self-esteem can not bear the fact someone else is not losing. Stop saying random words and adding fact next to it to make it sound real. Also you just told half your life story after your claim of "not needing" forex money to be happy, without anyone asking. The base chance of any blind trade is 50/50. The only 2 things that can happen to the price is it can go up or down. That's it. There is nothing else to...Ignored
Disliked{quote} My very first account was around 100 and I lost over half of that within a few days and wondered what I was doing wrong, I was doing what almost all websites tell you how to trade so maybe that is the problem, to lure in suckers to feed the beast. Think outside the box and ignore all the shit on all websites. For me, the best pairs to trade are GBPJPY, GBPAUD and EURAUD, I studied past price action on most pairs and these 3 came back as the best for my trading style, and because of that I apply the predictable movement from certain areas...Ignored
Disliked{quote} That's a very aggressive attack. You must be quite precious of your current winning streak and spit venom at anyone who you think may be pissing on your parade. Well hardly much to brag about is it? I never said Forex was a scam. I never said it's impossible to make money or even make a million. Of course it's possible, but that doesn't make it probable especially for naive wannabes like you. To make a million from $100 is highly unlikely. To make a million from 100k is more likely for a competent trader. All I was saying was I don't have...Ignored
QuoteDislikedI don't ever want to rely on Forex for a living because it is a mugs game.
Disliked{quote} I have spent a lot of time comparing accounts with different brokers side by side. If you did the same, you would be shocked. There are many ways brokers manipulate: with increasing spreads to take out your SL (especially if you have it at a fairly obvious place, along with many others), but the most shocking of all is that they slow the price, say when it is near your target (if say you have it short of a s/r level). Price may not even reach the s/r level, and remain some distance from it. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...48#post8730048...Ignored
Disliked{quote} I have been watching this argument for a while and I think Mingary has a point. Now before you all shout loser at me, we should stand back at look at the facts. . To make a million from trading, you would have to invest say, over 100k, most probably more. Now that is really stupid! If I am investing 100k, it most certainly won't be in trading Forex. By the way, I am not a loser, or bitter or a troll. I can simply just see the whole picture.Ignored
Disliked{quote} you are absolutely right. This is true. Also, you fail to mention that they send virus and threat to slow down your computer and frustrate you if they see you are outsmarting them. This is all programmed as a game to make trader lose. but, having a good system will give you both winning in demo and real accounts. this I have proved. checkout my explorer!Ignored
DislikedFor anyone that doesn't think it is possible for any member of Forex Factory to make a million dollars through trading, I submit to you one R. Campbell (username: "Rolandl33"). Roland has been a member of forex factory since 2006, although he doesn't post anymore. He has been featured in the Millionaire Traders book, written by Kathy Lien & Boris Schlossberg. This is proof that a "regular guy" can become rich and successful in the business of trading.Ignored
Disliked{quote}Im sure he may well have made 100k with Forex. Just not trading. more like selling crap like most people who have success in Forex.Ignored

Disliked{quote} Rob Booker is also featured in chapter 3 of the same book. Over the years I've tried some of Rob's publicly shared systems and haven't been too successful with them: another example of how "it's not the system, it's the trader", perhaps?Ignored
Disliked{quote} You claim forex brokers are openly comitting fraud. Which fits the pattern of a trader deflecting blame for bad decisions. And you call it a "mugs" game. Not sure what a mug is but it does not sound nice. {quote} you would rely on forex like a mofo if it had worked out for you. But it did not so deflect your failure and blame the evil market. Also to make a million from 100 is possible. Depends on return per time unit. It is just as possible as making 1 million from 900k. Just takes some more time. You call my argument an aggressive attack?...Ignored
Disliked{quote} You seem very insistent that I am seeking revenge because I'm a loser. For the record, I am a woman and I don't suffer from bruised ego issues. I really don't care. If it bothers you that much, I'll join you on the loser's podium, but really I have no problem with winners or losers... I simply said there are an infinite ways to make money in this world and there are much safer and easier ways to do that than trading Forex. There seem to be more sharks in this game than in other businesses I have been involved in. You should still open your...Ignored
