I am a paying member of the Igor Group. I really don`t understand this highly affective discussion. I take Igors offers seriusly but try to make my own way through - and the proposals Igor are making are in such a way that everyone can at least decide about how to trade and develope his/her own trading style. So what´s up?
My experience is that there is no EA, no Indicator, no automated system that works on its own. And it is this experience that makes a trader a good one. In this forum - I belong also to the Elite Section - there are 100es of EAs and here and there some very good ones, but they work only (they make only money) if some experience trader is behind them.
Why is it so difficult to be consistent in Forex if there are so wonderful EAs and automated systems? No one of them works without a brain behind them. Take the very simple MAs: I know a very good trader using mainly the 10, 20 and 50 simple MA. This is not my style but if he makes some good money with some "simple" MAs that`s good for him.
I like Igors system because it gives me some clues where to enter and where to exit - but one thing is the clue and the other is the action to really enter or exit at the point offered by the matrix or whatever one may call his system.
My impression is that from the outside some members of the TSD forum are thinking: the members of the Igor Group are unexperience traders and just want a trading leader for making money. Or is it more some kind of envy because we the Igor Group have the Holly Grail? No one has the Holly Grail of Forex Trading, nor me, nor we, nor you.
Look, if it where that simple to make money in Forex then a lot of members of this Forum should be millionaires (maybe they are already and I have overlooked that important fact!) because there are really good trading systems - EAs, manual, etc. - to find inside this forum. And this is also why I like this Forum.
You can buy a Ferrari (= automated system, EA, be member of a paid group etc...) but the fact that you own a Ferrari does not make you a good race pilot (= make consistently good money in Forex).
And let me say also something: take the so called Forex Killer System from this Austrian guy. I don`t think that this system is a scam but most of the traders would not used such a system in an "experienced" way. As Igor always says: on the one side there can be an automated system but on the other side there must be a brain that can use such a system.
Every indicator is in some way an automated system. The great missunderstanding is to try to use such a system "without a brain". Maybe we should also use in our discussion here a little more brain also and don`t let us guide from our (for sure most important) affects?
I wish you a good trade
