FX Training - Let's Share the Cost

Hello Everyone

I was recently referred to a man here in Toronto that has been a professional FX Trader for the last 3 years full time.

I actually went over to his home and met his family and saw his workstation and saw his monthly PnL Statements.

With a 20,000 FX account he has averaged $4000 per month for the last 3 years pretty consistently.

He was referred to me by a personal friend that took his training 3 months ago and was thrilled with the results.

I worked out a deal with him for training and I asked him if he would mind if I found a partner to share the cost with and he said he didn't mind at all, so long as I teach them separately from our time.

What I am looking for is for someone to share the cost $2000 of the $6000 Training fee and I will teach you everything that he teaches me.

His training is 2 nights a week for 2 hours for 4 weeks total.

So 16 hrs.

Once he teaches me I will get on the phone / computer and teach you everything that I learned during the session.

If anyone is interested please pm me and let me know.

Not even sure where to begin with this...

Good luck to you and anyone that learns from the guy that just got taught.

So he has made 250% per year for 3 years and hasn't figured out how to leverage that to more than $48k per year. Sure. And you are going to teach anybody anything in 16 hours? Sure.

ANYBODY with those kind of results could EASILY leverage that to 7 figures a year.

Here fishy, fishy. No wonder 95% go broke and go broke very fast.

Ghost of Livermore? LOL.

Those who can trade, those who can't create new magical indicators. LOL
Not to belabor punctuation but wouldn't that be better said:

"Those who can, trade and those who can't create new magical indicators. LOL." Plus in your case I might add "and those who can do neither, knock those who can do both."

Browns, you have made over four thousand posts, over eleven hundred per year and not once have you ever posted any original technical material - and yet, you knock those that do? LOL.

Who says one has to be an original trader to be a great trader? (I'm not saying brownsfan is original or great...I have no way of knowing...I'm just responding to the quote).

Or perhaps more importantly, who says that someone who creates new and effective indicators, "can't" trade? Study, preparation and originality are not a sign of weakness, that's what it takes to be out in front of the crowd.

Your point is valid and I agree with you, although I would propose that your question is perhaps of equal importance.

Different strokes for different folks...there's no "truth" in the markets...the truth is what works. No one has THE way, etc...

However, I would only propose that creating "new and effective indicators" is generally unnecessary/often isn't really anything "new" at all. I want to refer to thalestrader's great post here (post #29) on the subject, as he has articulated the point better than I ever could.

So we going to start this again Pat?

Maybe you and tresor should start a 'we love to hate on Browns thread' and you guys can just hang out there.

And I've posted plenty on this site for free with plenty of valuable information.

For example, you can check here and here to see what a blotter looks like. Something you've NEVER produced once. Funny how a guy that has all these tools and wonderful after-the-fact charts cannot produce a blotter or two to show that he actually does this in real-time.

And there's the Candlestick Corner, as well as chatting with some off site including doing a lot of work with a particular trader from this very forum.

All for free BTW.


For kicks, here is today's oil blotter for a 1 ct account. How have you done today? LOL. Let me guess, there's a million reasons why you can't produce that (again)...
