This is the only time I’ll respond. @tradecode
Your example of a car dealership is totally different than what you’re asking. A car is a product you’re buying and like everyone should look into the history of the car as to know if it’s a good car or not. You’re not asking that, you’re asking for someone’s personal finance data which is why I’m guarded. And just out of sheer principle I will not prove or feel the need to prove anything to you.
And a few minutes of reading through the internet and you would know that the MaverickFX is a tough company that maybe a little fishy. Not the same business models. As MaverickFX requires a much larger fee and smaller capital at the beginning to work from.
And even in your own argument you show how little you know about their rules. You literally said their rules are so tricky then right after you say “I don’t know the current FTMO rules are”. Such a contradiction of your own argument. Then you went into a rule for another trading company not even FTMO,
And also understanding the rules is easy, passing it is tougher. You think they just give anyone that comes along and says they’re a trader an account. Even your example of MaverickFX doesn’t do that but of course you don’t know that since you also said you haven’t checked up on then in a while as well.
Also you are allowed to have trades open during a major news event. There are two account types.
The normal account: you can have trades open during news, I have even posted, that I trade during NFP. But you are not allowed to open any new positions 2 minutes before and after a major news release.
Their swing account allows all of that. But wouldn’t know since you admitted to not knowing their rules.
Then you ask the question “who decides what a major news event is” . The market does, and then you also show your obvious lack of why they don’t want traders trading during news. It’s due to the fact that how volatile the market is when major news is released. If you don’t know what news is considered major, since you obviously don’t as well. Check out babypips.com they have economic calender, it’ll help you get started with that.
My trades are posted through the week at the entry of my trades before the moves are made, win or loss. You can literally go through the thread and see the time stamps. Also it’s not my fault you can’t read a tradingview chart. The graphs you can’t read seem to work for everyone else. And if you can’t read them I’ll even help you read them.
Then I post what I call a weekly roundup with all the trades I opened through the week and how they finished along with the journal. You can’t post anymore transparent.
So I usually don’t respond to things like this but you seem to have it out for traders that are doing ok (and I say ok lightly) cause maybe you’re not that good and haven’t made money or whatever the reason maybe. And then you hide that under your flag of doing due diligence. You’ve shown that you actually don’t do your due diligence in your own voice message there.
I won’t respond like this again and if this continues I will get the mods involved. So I think it’s best you keep my name off your post and out of your mouth and I’ll do the same.
