Do full-time forex traders exist or is it just make believe?

    If speak seriously I confirm that I know C personally for already 5+ years (as well as Surf does via professional social network I believe) and that he actually trades as he says.

  2. An aliases pointing at an aliases's successful trades as evidence of the purpose of the thread? Can't do any better, can you? Sad sad sad.

  3. Post a few statements, and have the person statethey earn 100% of their income purely from FX retail trading and ill STFU about it. Otherwise it's all make believe and a hobby.

    PS. Remember. I want to believe and am easy to convince. But nothing has been presented ....

    No Surf, I don't live 100% off of trading at this moment (as you knew allready before you asked the question). The reason is very complex and I like to keep that one to people that know me personally. It mainly has to do with health problems (it's an immens long story spanning 25 years of my life, nobody on ET is really interested in). More so considering the circumstances, I'd be totally crazy to do so. When I was doing options, it was 100% of trading though.

    How can I post other person's statements? Not even speaking that I don't have a purpose to really prove anything. Those people who know, know what they know, my trades happen in their accounts, no need for statements even. :D

    Have a good weekend! :)

  6. Exactly.

    its nothing personal. But there have been many on ET caught lying in the past-- as a result some of us have become wary of random internet claims of greatness.

    I could claim I made 10 handles scalping ES this morning... but I'd be lying. :D

    Pics or it didnt happen!

    I never looked as much as a few seconds at a chart when I was doing options. It was pure spreadsheet based. So I really know were some guys are coming from when they say they don't need charts for trading.
    Nowadays charts are all I look at. It took me quite a few years to do the transition.

  9. Yes surf, I know, you want everyone to use real name and post statements and you've been told to get into the real world. You have to use a real name because you are a salesman marketing funds and a journalist with a Twitter following. Go to my Twitter account and see how many follow me.

    I'm not marketing anything other than my 9 books on "the easy way to make millions trading FX". If you buy any one and you're not entirely satisfied, I'll give you your money back in full and you can write an explosive write up here.


    Your respect of CVD didn't last long.
