I found this subject on fxstreet and I though I will post it here as well for the user to benifit from it, I added a couple of more questions to the orginal post.

We all know that does not exist but now that I have you attention, I wanted to create a thread for members to post how they finally became profitable in forex trading.
Knowing that no one that has a winning strategy would ever share their secret, I am just looking for you to share just a basic strategy without compromising what took you years to develop!

For example do you:
> are you making money from forex?
> how many years have you been trading?
>only trade one pair?
>use no indicators?
>use many indicators?
>only trade on pure price action?
>look for chart patterns?
>have a favorite time frame?
>favorite indicator ?
> what is your best winning consecutive no. of trades?
>what is your secret, strategy ? (optional to answer or not )

Also, who or what has been your greatest mentor or influence?

I have been trading for a couple years now and I desperately want to become profitable I appreciate any feedback
