I really don't have a slightest clue why i opened this thread, my own journal to my journey to forex
I started trading live August 2008 where the start of world economic turnoil and i didn't have any clue at all of what i was into. I signed up for a live account (5k regular acct at fxcm) after a sales person from fxcm made a lot of very promising sales pitch about forex. I remember him saying " having an investment of $3,500 (regular account) you can double your equity in no time" until now i don't have a clue what he meant by that. I opened an account thinking i will become rich in a quicker manner
but to my dismay several days later, the market had skinned me alive.
I funded my account several times and until i realized my lifetime saving was now bleeding and said to myself something must have to be done, and as soon as possible. I was sitting infront of my screen after a long afternoon of business accounts consolidations (my own business - small cafe) i was reading few threads from FF and stumbled to fti's thread, TFA and i was really stuck to his thread. I was so interested and read the thread through (4 full days) and re-read again, although i was not an active poster even now, but an avid follower. all his teachings really for me is a gold mine. Honestly, i was really struggling to absorb what he's trying to teach because he used a lot of kinda "encrypted or coded" language left for us to decypher and plus the misspelled words
oh, it's really a wonderful read.
I've learned from him how to follow and read the market, feel the pulse and react quickly to whatever she (the market) gives. I really enjoyed experimenting fti's rescue tactics but i preffered cutting losses and running profits than rescuing my troops for i never really had a high success rate by doing so. until now i'm still doing 112 & 113 attack sequence as fti's teaching, i believe i cannot afford higher level than this. I preffer to stick on attacks than rescuing, but if time dictates and need be, i believe i have to do so - i believe i have a very strong knowledge of how to do it right
