Example of the 1-minute Drill in Ray's webinar recording mentioned in the post above Here I have decided to choose the Euor/USd and look at the first Hour of the London Open i.e 08:00 to 09:00 UK time. This is not 'cherry picked' this is just the ...

Boris Schlossberg contradicts himself yet again (several times in this piece): This piece shows a more mature, sensible ,successful side to Boris' trading - much more like Ray teaches! I highlight in red where this contradicts his previous email ...

It is interesting to note that BK Forex ( Boris Schlossberg and Kathy Lien ) are now advertising a so-called course, teaching a Trend Following breakout strategy for capturing +40 pips with a so-called win rate of 94%. Interesting on several counts: ...

Hi Sqwaverider, I think you are confusing the earlier course recordings and the earlier daily session recordings with the latest 3 day and 10(actually 14) day courses and currne daily condensed mini-lesson recordings. During the first 2 1/2 years ...

(10:31 am) Ian Foster: Done for the day and week. My Daily figures +1.86% with win % of 75%, Weekly figures +12.2% and win% of 65%. Not too shabby considering I missed most of Monday due to attending a funeral. For me it is absolutely vital to be ...

In his latest email, Boris Schlossberg perpetuates the myth that there are only 2 Models for trading success: The Lottery Model and the Insurance Model. ...

It is nice to know that my trading this week has shown that Boris Schlossberg lives in a different reality. Strangely I had the impression that my win ration was not so good - but I was wrong. When I crunched the figures: 189 'partial trade' 26 ...

The Crude Oil Inventories was a fairly easy trade today, especially if you have a liquidity heatmap tool such as BookMap or Jigsaw Auction Vista. Ray put up his Bookmap scree for the release and it was obvious that there was somebody desperate to ...

We don't call it drinking from the firehose for nothing. Just because the formal course finished 2 weeks ago doesn't mean he has stopped (it was billed as a 10 day course and yet lasted 14days - Ray decided that he couldn't teach fast enough for ...

Hi Sqwaverider, Since Ray hates doing promotional webinars and there was a gap of 18 months between the Classes he has just completed and the prior one (in November/December 2015), I think he will not be doing any previews or even formal classes for ...

On a personal note I have completed my trading for today since the Crude Oil Inventory situation is too complicated (due to the Hurricanes). Thus I am NOT trading the API Crude inventory today. It has been a tough week so far: Monday's profit net ...

Hostwey obviously does not believe that Stat Arb Trading can work for retail traders. But instead of enquiring how Copi88 is doing with it, he leaps to the conclusion that Copi88 is not able to make it work. I suspect that Copi88 has signed up for ...

(04:38 am) Ian Foster: Good morning guys. This is painful, I maiseed the Dax break long and am now sitting on my hands wondering where it is going to stop - I have seen no pullbacks on the 3min and feel uneasy about going to any smaller TF for a ...

A clarification: 1. Making 1 to 3% per day isn't easy, though once you have a correct method then the hard part is in the psychology - avoiding bad trades and minimising you size on the trades which have a smaller edge. 2. At least Boris errs on the ...

I am just looking over my numbers for August. 852 (partial) trades, 209 losses, 75% win rate (again this is lower than my target - so not a good month), account gain of just over +50%. Obviously I am trading full time - when I can avoid ...

JethroForex, You could not be more wrong about transparency. It is precisely because Ray actually is what he says he is (i.e. never been a retail trader). That he can't show results - because there is no personal account! Anybody who claims to be ...
