{quote} I suppose the nosy/keenly interested types might take a look just for interest sake as they are free to do so. The successful traders already have a fairly good grasp on trading (they're successful .. right?) so I don't think they have an urgent need. Still I always think that almost anyone can offer something useful to noobies or seasoned traders and I for one tend to keep an open mind expanding my trading knowledge because afterall I certainly do not know everything! ps. the never ending quest for the little hidden gems that...

{quote} I'm glad you agree, I doubt many long term, seasoned, successful traders are heading over to his website looking for tips, why would they have the need? I agree on the competitive angle also if the traders feel they and others would benefit. A duel born out of such hostile circumstances as this one was never likely to offer such benefits.....
The hostilities is perfect that serves as a hotbed for all the to and fro trolling which provided the best entertainment ever on ff. GJs is a master troll and geppy is not too bad himself. Except for a few newbies, I don't think anyone of us is here for the trading part.

In case no one has noticed..... IT'S THE WEEKEND!! Go out relax, have a drink, have a nice dinner, have some "private" time with your significant other (ifyouknowwhatImean ). Way too much negativity which is bad for you in every way. It clouds your thoughts, your actions and your plans. I got caught up in it like most but not anymore. I am going to unsubscribe from this thread and hang out somewhere more positive. Life is far too short to live it filled with hate and contention.

Hope everyone has a great weekend and a profitable week next week.

You've made many valid comments skyway.

I've had many a laugh from numerous posts in this thread and I certainly appreciate all the input from all of our trading friends.

I don't know what you might think of your gamble with the Yen longs and Canadian dollar shorts, may be your feel even righteous and vindicated! But I think they were both extremely risky trades given the timing. You bought Yen around BOJ and shorted CAD around NFP. You just got lucky, and there was no genius in those trades.

From my perspective you are the biggest loser here because: 1) you claim to be an expert on markets but this whole experiment proved the emperor is without clothes, you lost one third of your equity on one position! 2) You had an up and coming blog, I thought you had some ideas which were well worth it, but any sane person would be insane to buy into your blog. For a professional trader who has a 33 % drawdown in 3 weeks, it will be suicidal. 3) Full time or not, if you started trading today, you will lose your account in less than a year. Don't believe me? I challenge you to keep this explorer open for next 6 months, heck keep it open till December 31st and I can bet my left nut you will lose 70 % of your equity by year end. 4) You chose a newbie as your competetor, one with no obviousknolwedge or appreciation of market risk. Go pick someone who has been around a while. Last but not the least, in this business you need to have a thicker skin, you are like the Donald Trump of FX Trading. LOL!

For everyone else, I did not meant this as a personal attack, but I feel for the newbies here, who think its is okay to take insane amount of risks this guy took. They need to understand that anyone who has a 33 % drawdown in a 3 week time frame is the biggest loser, not the other guy!

{quote} So much misinformation here... where do I start? First, I'm not a professional trader. I don't know why you said that or have it in quotes. I trade as a hobby. If NFP had not gone my way I would have been stopped out at 1.2960 and my account balance would be about $4,200. I don't know where you the % DD's you state based on that information. Yes, I am profitable. Keep checking my TE if you have nothing better to do. You'll see that yourself.

Sadly, this is the case. But yes... hopefully it drives awareness to the blog so more people learn how to actually trade, not gamble.

Care to put your money where your mouth is? Forget betting left (or right) nuts. Put some money on the line and let's put it in an escrow account. If I lose the 70% (or more) that you claim I would, you get the cash. If I don't lose it by Dec. 31st, it's mine.

Bring it.

I do not have a need to prove myself. I am secure in myself and my trading. You are the one who started it, and its up to you now to end it.

PS # I will be foolish to risk a single $ on you or your trading. Don't take it personally, I just do not have a stomach to suffer 30 % + draw downs.

So you talk a bit game, tell me to challenge someone "experienced", but then you shy away from any sort of challenge... even a simple wager. That's typical of the trolls and wannabes of FF, that I can tell you for sure.

Why hide your account balance on your TE? Still trying to learn how to trade after 8 years on this forum? Still reloading accounts with a couple hundred dollars?

I get it, if that was me, I'd be bitter and taking out my frustration on someone else too. Hopefully you keep it confined to taking it out on random strangers on the internet and not your significant others.

This also makes zero sense. If you're so confident that I'm a terrible trader, why not "risk" some money that I'm terrible. After all, according to you it'd be an easy win. Where's the risk?

We are all learning to be better. Are you not? I do not claim to be a millionaire trader. If i was, I would not be here on FF posting on a Saturday afternoon, with nothing better to do. If you have made it BIG, well congratulations! I have averaged 10 % per year, year after year. This year i am up more than 20 % already and its only August. I can prove it by loading my TE from January. Could you say the same?

Can you load your TE starting January 1 2016 and show us if you beat my performance? If not then go back to parent's basement and dont come back!

I'm actually working on my weekly outlook right now and watching my baby son while my wife is out running errands.

Why don't you have something better to do?

I can't post a TE, no. Not because I haven't traded successfully, but because my trading has been done in an Interactive Brokers account for years now. I've just recently started trading with Oanda because I abhor IB's mobile "platform" (quotes because it hardly qualifies as a platform). Side note, how do you like Oanda? Would you trust them with a large sum of money?

The ironic thing here is you came in picking a fight with me, and now you don't want to finish it. I'd ask you to load your TE showing your 10% or whatever, but honestly... that's not the least bit impressive. Heck, I could do that by simply buying some tech stocks in the public markets. I do FAR better than that with my angel investments, and those are nearly completely hands off.

Buy some real estate in the San Francisco bay area and you'd do 10% a year no problem.

Trading forex should be much more lucrative than 10% per year. But if you're happy with that, good on you.

I'm not here to learn or get better. I'm here to give back because FF helped me back in the early days connect with traders that knew what they were doing. I struggled n this game for years (yes, years!) and I didn't need to. Nobody needs to if they have the right help and guidance. Unfortunately, people like you run all the helpful, knowledgable folks right off these forums. And it benefits nobody.

I guess you'll just have to wait until Dec. 31st to make your apology. My guess though is you'll never even make a peep.

Lastly, if you want to make at least 100%/year trading forex, I guarantee I could help you do that.

I am sure you make 100 % per year on your million dollar account the same way you were about to lose 35 % on your 5, 000 dollar account. ROFL!

I was gonna put this thing on ignore and go away but not now! The cockroach that you are, I am BEGGING you show me your performance from last FEW years, or even start of this year! I am really begging you, just show US your performance from start of this year. I am up 25 % on my account this year, can you even claim that you are not in negative, let alone make any profit?

Come out of your hypocrisy, and if you can't load a TE from Jan 1 2016, then keep this open with a start date of August 1 2016, this account of yours is going to 50 % loss by end of this year. Everyone can bookmark this post and come back exactly 4 months later to see this crook gone along with with his trade explorer.

And for the record my offer stands - if he loads his TE from start of this year, I will load mine from Jan 2016. I will let the FF audience be the judge.
