Looking for a mentor that has been there, done that and doing it!

Don't listen to anyone with "products" or " "services" to sell when seeking a mentor. While the products or services may be 100% legit, its not mentoring.

You need to do what I and others have done-- Bud Fox your own Gecko. Its the ONLY WAY.

HERE ARE THE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DO IT. DON't be fooled by MARKETING.

Anyone can do this and it is the only way!!!

 

False

 

Yes indeed some really good guys have posted here.

Here's a link to one with a great record.

 

Thanks guys for your responses, I trade forex. While I did have initial success trading reversed support and resistance, but in the the long term my psychology let me down.

Mentorship is a funny thing, I've seen mentors in different industries that just want to pay something forward, but they are few and far between. So I know the likelihood of someone out there like that are slim, but sometimes "if you don't ask, you don't get".

I would like to ask you guys how successful are you? We all have our goals, anyone trading full-time?

 

I totally agree!

I'm too old and ugly to fall for products and marketing ploys, the best mentors are free!

Thanks for you advice, I'll check it out.

 

Wrong, the best mentors (unless friends) will require you to pay. But they will not ask for the money to themselves, they will direct you to pay to some kind charity. Many people do no appreciate when things are given freely. This way both parties contribute.

 

Here is another way to find a mentor--- don't be lazy, just do it! http://motto.time.com/4266853/tips-finding-mentor/

 

My question to you is why don't you make profits? Comes down to you being lazy, everyone that losing should know exactly why they are losing, but we lie to ourselves cause we internally know we lack the very hard work of backtesting, going back three months is like a trickle to me, I back test ten years. You have a well written Trading Plan, do you have screen shots of good trades and ten times amount of bad trades and answers to redeem yourself. You have to have the answers of failures in your Trading Plan or you never get to sim stage, and when you sim, if day trading, till you get to 18 of 20 days profitable, you won't be able to compete with the best.

And you can't be taught to trade, mentors can show how price works, but students learn by discovery. How well do you know charting? Do you have to think about taking a trade or can to just do it without thinking, if you come to realize that some days price acted weird, it is not that way at all, you just not experienced it before.
