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

Funny! all your rhetoric and obfusication isn't going to change anything. It looks like all you are doing is fading the surf report.

Because you are the one with the escape hatch that says it's not TA because I am a savant and uniquely gifted. I imagine it's TA but it's really just my confusion. Hitting you between the eyes with a rookie stops that "it's not TA" baloney.

And you ought to find out how the www works and where brokers offices are. I don't mind being a second late.

Actually, fading the surf report is probably what the major hedge funds are looking into. You hit the nail on the head surf.

Why did I not proclaim todays moves in advance? A - Because I dont know how far its going to move B - Because I dont need to know ~

I need one bit of infomation Long/Short. I need two actions:

1> Enter
2> Set S/L at B/E...

I then need to make a cup of tea and observe in peace. I dont have profit targets, I simply bail when it looks like the action is up and look to repeat the process all over again..I will leave the absolute predictions to those who get off on that stuff...I have heard it works wonders on gold?

How many pips is the typical stop loss? Time frame used for set-ups? How does one tell when action is up and looks to reverse?
 
Quote from SimpleTrades:

If you guys spent more time trading than proving you can trade, you might actually make/or lose more money. I guess arguing about it is the safest thing to do since this way you avoid ever having any real skin actually in the game.

Go trade some Lira, sheda. Urrrr..... I mean Euros.

With all due respect wtf do you know of our trading? As for proving a point, there has been no such attempt on my part, it would be comical even if I were that way inclined to present evidence at the demand of this delusional crack pot idiot, who has been shown to be a failing idiot time and again, I hope to god those who were stupid enough to fund him catch onto this thread and see what he is about.

As for the Lira vs Euro comment, you need to get out more :lol:

5 - 1 min to 1 month- it changes direction.
 
Quote from Xspurt:

I have loads of live calls up to a week in advance posted on ET but this method is intense and often below the 1 min so there's no live calls. I don't have targets either as one time frame can trigger another so I go with the flow.

Cool. Is there a thread I could check out?
 
Quote from SL321:



For the poster that asked about the possibility of getting the rollover without ensuing the risk of the trade, yes there is a way...a very simple one actually :)
You can invest your money in some countries with high intrest rates using the USD as deposit, if you trust that country's banking system enough to do so, you could make some nice intrest (5-10%), usually a bit less than the intrest rate on the country's main currency albeit a good amount of money.
However, you cannot leverage here :) so yes, you can deposit your money in some foreign bank with high intrest rates while not incurring the risk of monatary fluctuation, and you'd be surprised how many hedge funds actually do that to sort of hedge some of their risks while still reaking some good profit.
Thanks.

"With all due respect", I see so much fantasy, bravado, bullshit in this thread, that suggesting you're trading some imaginary/dead currency is perfectly reasonable, if you're trading anything at all other than insults.

You see what you think you see, hence one person in this thread sees absolutely that TA does not work yet when shown his method is bullshit in comparison:

"Funny! all your rhetoric and obfusication isn't going to change anything."

Fingers in his ears and la la la..and then theres those like you...searching for the clues...reading inbetween the lines...deciding you know how it is for every one else...because you see...

Am I wrong? Is there no fantasy? Is there no bullshit?

Truth is this: at some point one must filter out the fantasy, filter out the bullshit, whether or not its bullshit, otherwise no decision can be made and nothing is every accomplished.

$10,000 to $1,000,000 in one year for a newbie. Bullshit. Even if he succeeded, he'd lose it, because his own psychology would be screwed by a success like this. He wouldn't take the money off the table. He'd continue to use the same method, believing that he'd hit $10,000,000 and then $100,000,000. What's more probable? A loss of everything!
