Do you mind sharing your thoughts on what keeps you away from a subscription?

I have my own private and profitable strategy, but I'll share my thoughts to try and help you out. I vaguely recall having read or heard (who knows when or where) that "traders trade their beliefs." That, I believe. It seems to me that a belief is a rather high threshold to meet. Personally, my belief in anything is much stronger where I have built the given thing myself. I can also say that my best investment toward trading profitability was merely a 50 USD coding book. When I was a new trader, much more expensive outlays pretty much flopped. You might be indirectly battling the gnarly stigma of the greater forex industry, even though you're offering a legitimate service. Hope this helps.

Thank you Johnny for sharing your thoughts! I am happy for you as you have found your winning strategy. Obviously that should keep you away

Hi All,
I removed a lot of unnecessary posts from CJ's thread up to page 300, as of now. Uploaded his pictures up to page 30. I do not see much interest so I stopped editing the thread. It is too time consuming. The thread should be an easier read for those interested to learn about the CJ method. I will continue, if there is interest, meaning new subscribers to my service.
Let me share some insights on this thread and I will be honest with it all. I have been into CJ's ideas for over more than a decade. Here are some statements based on my conclusions. I may be right or wrong, you decide based on your own research.
- The thread material is not sufficient for one to master the art of trading
- CJ was a genious but although he had brilliant observations, he failed to connect many of his own dots (no disrespect here, he might have but there is not enough evidence on that for us)
- Many of CJ's posted setups were off-track
- He promoted ideas that were baseless, thus mislead a lot of people although with no intention to do so
- He borrowed ideas from other traders that he has not personally validated
- But considering all of the statements above, he was a genius who likely just got tired in life and did not have the time to build on his own ideas any further. I am pretty sure that he would be one of the greatest traders of our time if he was still around.
- Sympathy was another genius but many of his ideas are not fully elaborated in the thread and thus it would be hard for one with no proper background to learn all that he possessed.

My take.. CJ and Sympathy are one and the same, only emphasized different aspects of price movements. Price movements is the unifying force. It works its own way and people tend to capture different elements of it, although it is one living being showing itself in multiple ways. Those ways are not unlimited and by connecting all the dots of CJ and Sympathy, one can get to the level that CJ always mentioned, to become one with the fox. Now, what that means is the experience I intend to pass on to all who are interested. It is very much different from how it was verbally described in the thread and it is also a bit different from how it was put as "once seen it can not be unseen". Even if seen and known, it can still be unseen and it happens immediately when separation from the flow of price movements happens. Getting into the flow is subject to having the right thought processes. This is what I teach by clearing up the mess and diverting attention to what is truly important and by explaining all the concepts with clarity. I have gone into this stuff so deeply that I do not even know how else one could trade other than by following CJ's and Sympathy's footsteps. I have a good offer till the end of February and you may want to take advantage. I just like to do this stuff, you will notice that you will receive endless support via endless hours. Once you are in, I do not count hours. Those who subscribed can testify it. So, for your own good, take your chances while you can.

Hi,
I have been experimenting with a linked account for the past few months to show trading performance. Copying the trades seems to work well so I can share the myfxbook link with you:
https://www.myfxbook.com/members/rewand/rewand/10814018
Some of you have taken advantage of the good pricing that was available when I launched the service. I now call the SHF user discounts off but increase the SHF support to 10%.

this line caught my attention recently,sorry for bringing it up now but i just wanted to clear the air.
are you saying that Sympathy and CJ is the same individual or you meant that their style of trading is the same?

Hi David,
That is a bad chain of events. Started in May. Nothing to do with the CJ style of trading. The flat I have been renting for 13 years is on sale and the transaction needs to be done quickly. I have been trying to sell my own properties so I can buy the flat. So I am renovating, advertising, securing second options (dealing with banks for a loan). Very stressful times.
My attention is not on trading. As simple as that. I let trades run, did not close on time. I am all around trying to buy the flat. Once you master the naked trading style, your availability will be your No1 enemy. This style can not be traded, unless one follows-up. Or with small positions so one has time to do repairs if a position is left alone. But that is not my style. I am open with it all, hence I have not deleted the link pointing to my performance. I will likely be back to trading in around September. That's life. You will see the account growing steadily again.

Hi Dydynamic,
They represented the same knowledge but grabbed pips out of different moves, due to their availability to trade. I also have to say that I do not have proof of their performance. I can only say that I have connected all THEIR DOTS, an renamed the style according to my final conclusion. I will post a picture I wanted to add in the thread but somehow I could not.
Many overlook this pattern. But once one is able to connect the meaning of this pattern with all the other aspects of naked trading, a kind of light will be switched on. It is not what CJ mentioned. This light has to be maintained, revealed over and over again as PA flows. Do not know how else to put it. I spent more than a year studying this pattern only. It is very unfortunate that people do not want to do the same. CJ talked about this pattern, some people drew on his pattern as well - creating more confusion. All I can say now is that if one is willing to study this pattern until one concludes on what it means, where this pattern leads price, it will help a good deal to switch that light on.

Thanks for your reply. I'm not surprised; focus and attention is key for good trading. Good luck with the housing project and keep up the good work, we enjoy your posts!
