Dear Madam and Dear Sir,
I would to ask you a question,According to the exchange rates:
what would be the exchange rate £/$ short - term (1month) = ?
what would be the exchange rate £/$ midle - term (6month) = ?
what would be the exchange rate £/$ long - term (12month) = ?
and
what would be the exchange rate £/ short - term (1month) = ?
what would be the exchange rate £/ midle - term (6month) = ?
what would be the exchange rate £/ long - term (12month) = ?
what is your advice might be.
Yours Sincerly,
MAHIR -
Dear Mahir,
What are the possibilities of a zero interest rates regime on the global financial terrain
in the 1st month,6th month and a year from now?
What are the possibilities of Crude oil, Gold, NYSE,NASDAQ,FTSE and other commodities in
rallying or declining in value for the 1st month, semi anually and anually?
What are the possibilities of war erupting in another economically vital hotspot/region in a
month, 6 month and a year from now.
What are the possibilities of an economical new world order, arising from the financial
Armageddon, in part, being sponsored by some media, in the short term, medium term and long
term?
Think, Man..
Your question was based on ''would be''... mine was on ''possibilities''...You need to think
of what the market might be in terms of possibilities, not in terms of ''will''.
Life is a paradox, just like the Universe, or the markets,from what Schrodinger deduced in
his atomic theories in the field of Chemistry.
No one knows the exact time when a particular event would take place,ALL the time..That is
the trading paradox..Else trading would have guarantees and the word ''speculation'' might
not exist in its glossary...

i dont get the idea you showing about thw system. first, where are
those numbers come from ? i looked at the charts that you attached those numbers (2.0168,
2.0050, 2.0089). sencond, is this same as the 3 ducks system ?
Me too,ddock...it has been quite a while since that chart was posted,I must say... those
numbers come from the chart, where we added/subtracted the range of price from its virtual
entry point..second, am not really familiar with the 3 ducks system..so cant say for now..

Yes Lance, you can get a sample detailed performance report on my strategies as an attached
file below.Just click on it ,okay...This was on a starting balance of $10k as at October
this year, in which the total net profit is $3k plus..relative drawdown of 8.69% over a 3
month period..that should be approximately 10% per month on the average. Not too bad...action speak louder

Quote from increasenow:
TO: ForexGreenLand
Great thread!
Questions for you:
1-looks like you are consumed with the GBP/USD...why only this currency?...do you trade
others?
2-do you only trade micro lots or standard size lots ever?I seen you neveer trade even 1
lot...
3-you made $3,000K since you opened the account...do you have a job or other investments you
live off?
4-where do you live and what hours do you trade Forex?
Great trading to you!!
Helloo there, increasenow,
from the tone of your comment, you seem to be hiding some heavy sarcascm beneath velvet
gloves, or shall we say , ''cat's paw''? maybe its just a reflection of your inner mental
processes at work...well, I'm in a good mood so I'll humour you for now and give you some
answers..
1- consumed with GBPUSD? What do you think this is, alcoholic consumption frenzy? Trading is a
wide field like medicine,law,or any other profession out there...it pays to specialize in
one or two currencies well and be profitable, than to be jack of all trades and master of
loss..ever heard of comparative advantage? Warren Buffet said something along the line of
diversification are for those that dont really know what they are doing...put your eggs in
few baskets as possible , and watch them like a hawk...so in order words, I trade all
currencies and I specialize on the cable, just like I said on my begining post here.
2 - I manage forex accounts ranging from tens of thousands minimum, to millions of
dollars..That sample detailed report you saw was based on how much return of investment(ROI)
gained monthly from a minimum of 10k. Due to my style of trading, risk and money management
is of top priority in the first objective of preservation of capital.
The second objective of making profits comes next.I want you to understand that in trading,
garbage in, garbage out...right thinking, right product..
Never risk more than 2% to 3% of your capital in any trade...For a 10k account, dont risk
more than 200 dollars..for a 100k account, dont risk more than 2000 dollars, for a $1m
account, dont risk more than 20k in a trade..
So in the context of this sample, why should a professional trader use 1 standard lot on a
10k account, if risk mgt suggest $200(2%) risk on a single trade for that equity ? You have
the potential of losing $2,000 on a trade, which is 20% of the 10k equity, instead of just
$200 or 2%..That 20% keeps you in the game for just 5 times, while the 2% keeps you in the
game for 50 times...Devrim, a forex trader lost 90% of his million dollar account because he
wasnt using stops...learn from the mistakes of others..maybe you should go back and read
The higher your equity, the better capitalized you are...Dont be fooled by adverts telling
you to trade forex for $10 or $100 or claiming you can make gazillions out of a palty amount
...doesnt work that way...from your name,increasenow,dont be greedy,
3- 3k from a 10k account in 3 months amounting to an average of 10 % monthly, is not too bad
in my opinion, considering the last 3 months have been the most volatile and uncertainity
filled period in the markets, with the global economic crises,recession troubles and bad
news transmitted everywhere.. ..
Traditionally, months from October through December, have always been very hectic for
traders...most rarely trade during the period as banks, hedge funds square off positions to
the detriment of the undercapitalized and inexperienced traders.
For the 3 month to a year period, bonds have been below 2%, Treasuries Bills rates have been
slashed to pieces and stock index have been on negative for the last 9 months now..so why
make jest of a 30% return in 3 months, if you are not a court jester?
(Please remember to take half profits after you are +20 pips while shifting stop loss to
entry. And 15 to 25 pip trailing stop should be used after 2 nd have hit..)
i dont understand ur words????/////
Helloo fasi, lets illustrate ,shall we?
For example, we have a buy stop @ 1.5000, where stop loss was 50 pips away, @ 1.4950...so our buy stop was triggered and price gets to 1.5020 or more..THAT is when you adjust your stop loss level from 1.4950, up to the buy entry level of 1.5000..then taking half profits means closing half your position(s)..if you entered with 1 minilot, you close at 0.5....if 2 minilots, you close at 1 minilot...sequentially...failure to apply this simple risk management technique while trading, is the cause of so many unnecessary losses..
Hope you now understand..

Quite right,sam...If you noticed on the chart, you could see the 1-2-3 bottom below and the
head and shoulders pattern above...They are both reversal chart patterns,telling us price
has a high probability of reversing direction from its prevailing trend..The 50 pip stop
loss was at the left shoulder, and before we know it, 200 more pips, after 3rd target, was
liberated..

@ Wise?TX
1- Would you give control of your live account to an EA? Would you board a flight across the
Atlantic with just robots to navigate and NO human pilots?
2- Google 'chart pattern recognition and price projection strategy' and see whether it is a
system or not, mon ami..THE CHART PATTERN RECOGNITION AND PRICE PROJECTION STRATEGY tells
us, to a considerable extent, where price is going and how far it might get there..
If it is not a system, how come you see these charts showing more profits than losses for
months now? Is it possible to make consistent profits WITHOUT, not just a strategy but a
SOUND STRATEGY? Or did I go and meet brokers and tell them ''hey, buddies, please fix some
green dotted entry lines and red dotted stop loss lines for the benefit of our bronco billy
cowboy"?
3- I think you need some glasses,Man...or maybe just remove the negativity and focus on this
thread with clarity of mind..1-2-3 bottoms,Head and Shoulder patterns, 60% BUY/SELL
WINDOWS,REACTION SWING, REVERSAL DATES,TRIANGLES, TREND LINES, MACD DIVERGENCES,ETC, are
shown and demonstrated here...Man, you need to stop popping too much Valium pills, wake up
and smell the roses.
4- Transcripts of live forex trading conversations are archived on forexgreenland, as a
source of practical lessons to students that are ready and willing to learn. Last time I
checked, I guess it was a free world. Meaning is relative, according to individual
perception and value, my friend.
5- Trading is a business and should be treated as such..Ever read the Parable Of the Talents
in the Bible? Please do.. Though this thread is about REVIEWS OF STRATEGIC TIPS,no one is
under any obligation to give live forex alerts as PREVIEWS. It is just to demonstrate the
effectiveness of the CHART PATTERN RECOGNITION AND PRICE PROJECTION STRATEGY.
Astonishingly, I bought John Crane's book some years ago and gained much from it..I didnt go
around thinking why he was promoting his business through his website or why should he be
offering his commodities services to traders..What I'm concerned with is''VALUE''..and the
results are clear to see..Dont be like that man in winter, next to his stove,telling it to
give him some heat...The stove said '''Wood''...The man insisted on getting heat first
before piling woods.Who's deceiving who? As you breathe in, you also breathe out..thats how
life is..
Warren Buffett, one of the smartest and most successful businessmen of our time, was
recently asked what he thought was the best investment anyone could make in these so called
difficult times.
His answer was fast and simple ...
"The most important investment you can make is in yourself."
That could very well be the best advice Mr. Buffett has ever offered. If ever there was a
time to take control of your future, it's now.
Like you said,maybe you are really missing something,tx..something spongy and mushy..If your
IQ gets below 50, SELL.. just kidding

Hi sagar, thanks for your mail.. it actually takes around 2 hours to draw and write the
charts while trading is on..for me, the thrill and challenge of multitasking helps in my
trading environment which brings a fulfilling sense of being. Posting live trades in front
of a global audience, where the mainstream perception tends to be ''a trader is as good as
his last trade'', is all good..for true traders makes you feel and do good. We should all
strive to seek balance in all things we do.
so for friday, we could see a mini 123 bottom formation on GBPUSD15 min chart..so a buy stop
Today being Friday and last day of trading for the week it can be a
mixed day for forex market. This i have been observing in the last few months that Friday
has been some times mixed and some times a black day for forex traders.
Yes,though this time, our 75 pips on our 1st target would have offsetted any ''Black
Friday'' losses..
Helloo folks, We thank God for bringing us into a brand new week...Most would call it the
Christmas Week so I'm wishing all a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year ahead.
As we approach Monday, we could see 3 crosses on the GBPUSD 15m chart, the first candle
upturned. That was a region of indecision that paused price advance to the upside.To be or
Not To Be?
MACD is giving us positive divergence to price, which is more or less, a green light.
We put a buy stop @ 1.4960..1st target @ 1.4999..2nd target @ 1.5049..3rd target @ 1.5125...

Helloo fasi, you could check out the userguide on any mt4 platform..Here's an excerpt:
''Stop Loss is intended for reducing of losses where the symbol price moves in an
unprofitable direction. If the position becomes profitable, Stop Loss can be manually
shifted to a break-even level. To automate this process, Trailing Stop was created. This
tool is especially useful when price changes strongly in the same direction or when it is
impossible to watch the market continuously for some reason.
Trailing Stop is always attached to an open position and works in client terminal, not at
the server like Stop Loss, for example. To set the trailing stop, one has to execute the
open position context menu command of the same name in the "Terminal" window. Then one has
to select the desirable value of distance between the Stop Loss level and the current price
in the list opened. Only one trailing stop can be set for each open position.
After the above actions have been performed, at incoming of new quotes, the terminal checks
whether the open position is profitable. As soon as profit in points becomes equal to or
higher than the specified level, command to place the Stop Loss order will be given
automatically. The order level is set at the specified distance from the current price.
Further, if price changes in the more profitable direction, trailing stop will make the Stop
Loss level follow the price automatically, but if profitability of the position falls, the
order will not be modified anymore. Thus, the profit of the trade position is fixed
automatically. After each automatic Stop Loss order modification, a record will be made in
the terminal journal.''
Trailing stop is also used when your 1st target is hit and price is still going your way, up
or down..It enables you to take the maximum outreach in price movement before any major
retracement/correction. Depending on the daily range and volatility of the currency pair
that you are trading, a 15 to 35 pip trailing stop would be in order.
EURUSD has a 2 pip spread..GBPUSD has a 3 pip spread and GBPJPY has like 7 to 9 pip
spread...cable is like euro on steroids, which is more stable than pound-yen. That is where
we look for balance, the median..
Due to popular demand, a la fasi, we put a buy stop on EURUSD @ 13945..1st target @
It would be better to take off half profits when +20 pips, rather than waiting for 1st
target to hit..Time and tide, along with price,waits for no man..
Robert Kiyosaki, of the Rich Dad Poor Dad series,talked about the stock market burst some
ears ago, along with its effects on baby boomers and their Social Security program. Even
though he gave out some suggestions on how to avoid that pitfall by personal development and
education, most people then castigated him as a fraud who just wants to sell his books and
seminars. From what is going on in the global economy and the US, it appears he has been
Late last year, on one of the popular Nigerian forums, I predicted the Nigerian Stock
index(NSE) have reached its top and suggested readers should cover their positions and
unload their stocks. But as at then, the bulls were in control, stock newsletter and article
writers were fueling the bubble frenzy and screaming ''BUY''..
The young admin of the forum, maybe out of ignorance and emotional bias, reacted by banning
all forex traders off his site. But that didnt stop the stock market bubble to burst and
uneducated investors losing substantial amount on their equity. Those that took the time,
money and energy to understand and educate themselves on market behaviour saved themselves
from the bearish drop and even made profits from the decline.
In essence, as investors,we should strive to invest in ourselves.No one knows it all. Most people made money in the Great Depression of the 1930's..We can too..
Hi Stal,
First of all thanks for pointing me to forexpeacearmy as it is a very good source of forex
information. I have been going through the broker reviews and feel like it has stopped me
from taking a wrong decision. I have managed to shortlist a few which I beleive are honest
as per the reviews.
Your comments or experiences on any of these would be very helpful, especially if u could
point one or two which I can go live with.
1.MB trading
2.Ikon-Royal
3.Tradeviewforex
4.Alpari Uk
Any help and insight would be highly appreciated..
Thanks,
Helloo there...
Well, it would be unseemly if I publicly endorse any of the brokers due to conflict of
interests.So am throwing it out in the open...Anyone that has comments or experiences with
any of these is free to post it here. Thanks once again.
