{quote} Sigh. Thanks for posting that Cat. Trading is lonely. Even your SO will not get it. She will look at the charts, and nod her head, and wish you would leave the PC for cuddle time. Only traders get to talk to other traders. The further along you get, the more you want to help newbies as you realize that a true edge can never really disappear. This post just made my week and it is only Monday.
I know you understand jmn. You guys are the only people on the planet who actually understand what I do and what it took to get to where I am, which is why I like to chat with you all...the alternative is a pretty lonely old world stuck in my office in the garden all day with just the cat for company.

There are so few profitable traders on this site that anyone who is actually making money is a top trader (only 1% actually make real money - therefore they are automatically a top trader. The next 4% trade breakeven).

So from, what I can see, I believe Davit (his thread: Pivot Trading with TDI), and Mr.Pip (Ratios and harmonics, a different way to trade) are probably two good examples of excellent traders here on FF. SalvatoreD and Dennis 1468 also seem like they could be legit. But if you're really interested in analyzing the behaviour and stats of good traders, have a look at the Darwinex brokerage. Under the DARWINS section you can sort traders by their returns and get a breakdown of their statistics. It's a good way to ground your expectations in reality. If you wanna make 100 000% a year... forex, and maybe even trading, isn't for you.

{quote} Such a solipsistic view. Because you (and others, of course) don't know profitable traders here doesn't mean there aren't. And some traders are playing with big money (7 digits), do you think they feel the need to post a trade explorer to get your approbation? The purpose of the forum is to help each other, not putting each other down...
And where's their long term trackrecord ?

Anything is possible but show proof man.

Why do I have the burden of proof ? It is not me making the assumption

For example, you can go on some long term trading journals and some long time posters on pairs section and you'll conclude many are profitable ( the others have a deep wallet )

Dude, don't get me wrong, there are many successful traders in the long term, just I don't think 99.9% of them would waste a second here

Jmn5611,

Could you please elaborate more on what you said:

"as you realize that a true edge can never really disappear."

Thanks

I don't think you'll find really good traders in forums, because when you get good you realize, using trading forums provide absolutely no value to you anymore.

I think "cat"'s explanation is perfect.

What would the successful trader do? Spend his time in his boat, drinking Champagne with beautifull ladies? The successul trader is most likely someone who likes what he does, could talk about it with passion, is in a continuous improvement process, although trading can be really boring sometimes. Hence the forum, and other activities.

Funny how quickly threads, like this, get off topic, and only 2 traders have been listed who actually have had success.

what do the top traders get from this forum when they display their results or prove they are the best trader? I dont think, it will benefit them.

A true edge is based upon price action. Chart patterns that appear on every chart, on every time frame, since the beginning of time.

{quote} If you want to prove you are the best trader on FF then you must prove it via trade explorer.
Many successful traders would not post a TE, out of fear not to be reverse back engineered... I do know one German fella here at FF (not in the list). He is exactly that kind of person. Few here at FF are aware what a monster he truly is...

I do suspect these guys to be quite good traders:

Dutchy Daxy - some crazy cold blooded guy from Dutchland.
hanover - rich guy, hobby trader, kiwi eater. love mathematics, but knows almost nothing about hedging. nobody's perfect.
hilmy83 - an American, probably rich, thinking highly about himself. offering myfxbook, arrogantly asking for our money...
90strader - short lived Asian star, as of now. probably not rich. hope he stays for longer. very talented trader. hope he gets rich one day.
dukas_trader - an aggressive German. one likes or hates him.
dkrock - an arrogant American asshole, but likely a very good trader. probably quite rich asshole.
cat - seems a nice guy, don't like him very much because he put you on ignore.
RondaRousey - another clinical and arrogant asshole, making funny comments half of the time.
The Fool - an idiot who does not know a shit about hedging, but it does look to me he is a good trader, without the hedging part.
Forexcube - some crazy scholar from the Alps. loves chocolate. highly egocentric.
nubcake - very young soul, who does not understand how to make money out of hedging. poor bitter numb cake. still, a good trader.
Soros - i just love this arrogant butt hole. very funny guy. suspect him of being a good trader.
TooSlow - highly underestimated fella here at FF. slow in the head, too. highly egocentric, without even being a scholar. doesn't eat chocolate. loves lemons instead.
dancingphil - super smart, but dead guy. my favorite no.1 here at FF.

What would you do, if you were a successful trader yourself, RondaRousey?

I'm not saying that talking on forums is a waste of time.. TRADING forums are a waste of time if you're serious about the topic.

I have seen traders with institutional background coming here and asking questions. what happens they either get insulted or surrounded by people who just want to know their strategies lol
