Do full-time forex traders exist or is it just make believe?

Quote from marketsurfer:

Do you have issues with the conversion and what was your starting balance in USD?

There is no conversion. It's a US$ account. I have disclosed the starting balance was $10K, dropped to just over $7K after the 1st week and that first statement shows the low point.

Something showing the account growth would have been good. Not just two separate profitable days. Especially since you say his dad put a lot of money into the account between those two days and you blanked out the account balance anyway.

I can't see what you're trying to prove by picking those two snippets, which could be from different accounts for all we know. :confused:

This is from a conversation between surf and myself regarding a rookie I mentored and these were 2 specific days relating to that conversation. Basically the rookie started on $10K dropped to the low after week 1 and I explained the reasons and after about 6 weeks he hit his first $10K day. (except it was a $50K day)

It's not meant a journal. The goal was to turn $10K into $1,000,000 in 1 yr and disregarding his dad's investment he is on target without increasing anything right now. However there will be substantial increases in the amount per pip and I expect his trading to improve.

Surf asked for 2 statements from someone who is full time trading using TA and that it is the sole means of generating income.
 
Alright folks, nothing more to see here, It's all make believe.

Next time your boss wants to pay you Federal Reserve Notes for your "full time" and labor, just say no , it's all make believe, we can't do that trade.
 
Quote from Xspurt:

I began trading weekly swings close on 30 yrs back but realized I could get a better entry on the weekly if I could catch the set up on the daily. Then it was logical to improve on the daily but going to the 4 hr then the 2 hr and in time I found all time frames were much the same so I migrated to the 1 min.

It was after that that is began to focus on getting very tight entries on the 1 min or lower TF but then I was looking to catch the bigger swings when possible from that small entry. A 2B would be too slow for me on most occasions.

No blog, no chatroom and not looking publicity. CVD, Cornix , myself and a few others share a private room but we have been trading together for years and understand how to work together so we don't advertise it. Cornix has a blog and chatroom and I can recommend that. I hope that answers your Q's

Thanks for the explanation. So these are reversal levels, mostly? For example, right now, which time frames would be up for the euro?

Thank you for the statements. I know very little about the Philipines --- is the cost of living low enough that someone could earn a living from that account? Surf
