Re: Offering: Forex trading coaching

That would be a long story and it's late for me now lol

*cliffs:
I stumbled upon a huge stock trader in early 2002 and he mentored me.
You don't have to read many books or go too far to realize it's a wonderful business. You are your own boss, you make your own schedule, you work with money directly, almost 'unlimited' growth potential, all the psychological aspects of trading are interesting and they help you grow (they can make or break you as a person).

These aspects are very similar to poker I believe. If there is something in specific you want to know, drop me a PM sometime, I would be happy to answer these kind of questions in private.

Regards,
Damien

This year so far I managed to catch +4000 pips trading by my rules. Most of it is shown in the charts, because there were huge movements following the initial signals I had (they were clear as day). A very conservative trader probably would have traded just half the number of currency pairs I do, so he would have made 2000 pips or 20% profit so far.

Please do consider that other months are not as active as what we have seen recently on the forex market. Results vary monthly depending on market conditions! Sometimes the market is quiet for 2-3 weeks and nothing happens, and then it breaks out and we get trades that (most of the time) recover the "dead" period.
I've traded in the past and I can get 10%+ ROI weekly

$10k traderoll
trading $100k lots ($500) depending on if you're a short term or long-term trader, I prefer short-term as it provides better results and requires less margin so we'll say trading on the hourly charts we'll want usually no more than 100 pip margin ($1,000) give yourself 10x margins so $10k investment you can trade $100k lots at .5% leverage. If trading EURUSD each pip is $10 per $100k lot so if you average 10 pips per day which is a fine goal x 5 days = $500 profit from your $10,000. So 5% weekly ROI.

I'd trade 200k or more lots with $10k cause I trade on 1-minute, 5-minute, 15-minute graphs so 100 pip margins arent needed, rather 30 pips.

If you're saying 75% to 100% ROI per year, thats a goal you want to make with STOCKS. CURRENCIES yield much higher profits than stocks so you should have a goal of 500% per year.

But you're a long-term trader I see so if it yields 100% per year with less risk and less time involved than a short-term trader then what you're offering can be very worth it to some. I've had to pay up to $3000 to learn how to make 100% yearly with stocks xP.

Other than that, for $300 was it? 100% ROI per year is definately worth it. I'm curious as to your teaching method though ===

Re: Offering: Forex trading coaching

I mentioned the number of pips and how much that equals for a conservative trader. Everyone can make their own calculations depending on their risk aversion.

If you're interested PM me and I'll get back to you.

I make sure I don't take students who can only afford the coaching but wouldn't have resources for any type of real account after coaching is done and after they spend several months on a demo account.

1. Yes, I have been trading full-time for several good years now.

2. Enough to make more then if I would be trading for a bank in the countries I reside in (I move a lot).

3. Definetely yes. Another thing is that in forex you can use the same method to make $1000 a month or $100,000 a month. In poker you have to climb through the levels slowly and for most poker players it's impossible to reach the nosebleeds. In trading kaizen still applies (continuously improving), but it's not such a pain like it is in poker.

4. Winning and losing doesn't stress me at all. Money in general doesn't stress me at all. I have been lucky to have a patient mentality. I can wait for good situations to happen and I only take the best trades that fit me. By not taking mediocre trades I don't put myself in uncomfortable situations, so I am not stressed at all.

I have less activity on the coaching front then I expected, so there is still spots open for now.

Regards,
Damien
Sounds good. I may definitely be interested in the next year or so. Unfortunately, the time isn't right just now. If you dont mind, I'll keep tabs on this thread and pm you in the future. If you have a spot open then, great, and if not you can let me know at that time.

Re: Offering: Forex trading coaching

Half of the guys interested are busy with tournaments, trips and so on. The entire point was for me to be busier then I am now, so I have at least 2-3 spots open. Contact me only if you're interested, dedicated and passionate about learning new interesting things.

Regards,
Damien

Re: Offering: Forex trading coaching

how much money have you actually made trading, do you make trading a year?

i know enough about trading (i do have some industry experience) to know that if you are profitable you wouldn't want to disseminate proprietary methods and would be better off training someone personally and growing them through your organization then selling it to strangers online

quotes like this:

[QUOTE=Damien86;16697705]Considering a $10k account, trading very conservative with small positions* you can expect to make anywhere from 75%-100% upwards profit per year.


are disingenuous at best

especially when your training consists of mostly mailing people charts and telling them that you guarantee they can make a profit reading it one way, i know all about technical analysis
