What did this thread turn into? Failing traders insulting other failing traders? Doesn’t seem like any of you have a pedestal to stand on. I liked reading Money’s progress updates because the dude just doesn’t give up.
None of you have time for this. Turn off these silly forums and get to work. I stared at charts almost non-stop until I finally figured out how to turn a tidy profit in the Forex market. Now I’m expecting complete financial independence and my first million by the time I hit 23, while all of my peers are preparing to slave away in the 9-5 rat race for a measly $80k per year.
Ask [I]anyone[/I] who is successful the secrets to their success. 99% of them will answer that they hung around other successful people and learned everything they could from them. Money, I admire your dedication man. I really do. But hanging around here on BP with newbies, non-profitable traders, and losers who come into your thread just to insult you isn’t going to get you anywhere fast.
One more word of advice. You’re so hell-bent on developing your own system. It’s a dead end man - at least until you learn how to be profitable. I spent over 2 years trying to make my own way, failing time and time again. I shunned the hundreds of free systems with measly returns like 1-5% per month. Eventually I gave in and tried one. Yeah I started out making like 3% per month by using a system I found on these forums. But I built off of it, improved it, and now I’m looking at about 5% per week. That’s more than 99% of traders will ever achieve, and I’m still not done yet. The hardest step is becoming profitable. Once you’re there, it’s so easy to make more profit. I was stubborn, but I finally decided to jump-start my learning curve by starting off with an already-established system. And I can honestly say it was the best trading-related decision I ever made.
