Full Time Traders

CarlosRay a SENIOR MEMBER:26: ???

I wonder what yardstick was used in giving you such?, there is so much immaturity in your response and it goes a long way to reflect on your age and journey through forex.

When I wrote:

Professional traders making between 5%-150%, I meant it, because I have seen live results pasted from forex competitions with live money, however I am sure you missed the part where I also wrote: “The most important thing you should know is that in this game what counts is consistency”…meaning being consistent in the game, every trader has to trade responsibly and trading responsibly is consistent results month after month and not a one hit wonder which doesnt last through time.

Secondly in my post where I wrote: “Why should successful Doctors, Lawyers, Engineers, Accountants etc have students”, it was an analogy… What I meant was that no form of education is free, that was my point.

If you became a senior member by babypips.com, it is rather dissapointing because I am sure you got enough posts to get there through your cheap insults to every member who expresses their opinion on this platform.

Grow up CarlosRay and stop looking at the world through a keyhole

Thank you

You’re fairly quick off the mark with your own cheap insults, not to mention the sad faces and bold text.

You are incorrect saying that no form of education is free. There is an excellent free school right here, Ive even seem pay-for courses and other forex forums/blogs which have blatantly copied its content. I don’t know where you come from, but here in the UK education is still free even, until recently, University education.

Let me explain myself again CarlosRay,

I repeat, “No form of education is free”…

1.The X number of years you spend honing your skills before becoming a professional trader, is it free
2.The number of accounts you blow up learning without a mentor who would guide you, does it come cheap of free.
3. Your continuous psychological meltdown everytime you go through so much emotional stress through trading, does it come cheap, or is it for free?

I can go on and on. No form of education is cheap “Your either pay through your pocket and become a pro in a lesser time or just pay spending a lot of years learning through hardship on your own”, and if you are unlucky, you may just throw in the towel before you even become a pro

Thanks

Repeating it doesn’t make it right. As I said, education here in the UK is free

1.The X number of years you spend honing your skills before becoming a professional trader, is it free

If you hone your skills in your free-time, then by definition it is free. Some people use their free-time for sports, some read, some enrich their lives other ways, learning fx is just another way for many people

2.The number of accounts you blow up learning without a mentor who would guide you, does it come cheap of free.

Does having a guide or mentor guarantee success? Of course not, it only guarantees an additional cost. I trade profitably, it didn’t take me long and it certainly didnt cost me much, certainly a fraction of the cost of other pasttimes many people have

  1. Your continuous psychological meltdown everytime you go through so much emotional stress through trading, does it come cheap, or is it for free?

Not everyone has these issues, we are all different psychologically and it is wrong to assume otherwise. It was never an issue for me, although you only have to read this forum to find people for whom it is. Paying outsiders for mentoring or training courses is only going to create bigger financial pressure to succeed, more stress for those who are less able to handle it.

I can go on and on. No form of education is cheap “Your either pay through your pocket and become a pro in a lesser time or just pay spending a lot of years learning through hardship on your own”, and if you are unlucky, you may just throw in the towel before you even become a pro

No offence intended , but this section of your post looks a lot like the blurb used by people like ICT trying to sell training courses and mentoring.

Lol, what a funny dude, I am no selling any courses or looking for students to teach… Like you said everything you need to know about forex is here… The only difference is that taking a holistic perspective towards subjects like this guides you against stunted growth in such an endeavor
