Nonsense.

Please stop spouting false information about someone else's forum/strategy/trading application etc, it's not cool.

Read Craig's posts from the last couple of days again, and then work out where you made your mistake.

He said that the production of DVD and other training materials would take place in a few months from now, after all of the Entropy components have been delivered and most of the tweaking has been done.

He did not say "The tradebot will not be ready for a few more months".

Apologies if I've missed something (other than your constant and incredibly negative attitude towards FXAW, Entropy and a guy who seems to be working very hard to deliver it for FXAW members).

:?
I have deleted the above post. My apologies if I have misread the post. I shall look for the particular post (date and post number) and PM you when I do.

I agree totally with you that Craig is working very hard for the benefit of the members and it was not my intention to be negative.

I have deleted the above post to avoid further controversy.

EDIT :

I have re-read the particular post by Craig, and the "a few months from now" actually refers to the production of training materials" etc.

My unreserved apologies to all concerned.

I wish to reiterate that I have the greatest respect for Craig and for what he is trying to do for his members.

What he is undertaking is a monumental task, stick with it, enjoy the ride and I'm sure it will be a lovely additional to our trading once it's all finalised and has settled in.

Also bear in mind that there have been people over at FXAW for a number of years, contributing and sticking with Craig for a long time (the same way we have been with Steve). We should be flying the banner for Steve's forum, I'd hate for any of the guys over at FXAW (who have been welcoming of all of us "newbies") to read criticisms of Craig/FAXW etc on Steve's forum, especially when they are unfounded.

Cheers for deleting though, it's appreciated.

No worries. In fact, it is rather nice to see Craig has so many loyal supporters. He is busting his butts for the benefit of his members. He does not owe anybody anything, and does it out of his own generosity and deserves every ounce of support from his members.

I trusted Steve`s judgement on FXAW and paid the $250 to join.
I visited the site before joining and tried to get an idea what I am going to get in to, but there was nothing to see and everything was for the members to see.
So, I paid and joined.

After joining, I could see the posts and what a disappointment that was.
All the previous attempts were failures. %95 of the post are related to the members social life, about 5% talk actually about Forex, and 100% of that 5% are about the money lost.
The promised Entropy apparently will take a while to be ready.
I have been in the Forex business for years and I exactly know that getting a strategy in to code, no matter how complicated it is, does not take more than a week. At least the preliminary EA can be ready in a matter of days.
The only reason that they do not release is that they know for sure that it is a loser, like thousands of EAs that we know.

Am I glad that I joined the group? Hell no.

I am sure Steve had a good reason to direct us in that direction, beside the $50. commission.
Time will tell.

I'm sorry to hear that you found FXAW not to your satisfaction and I disagree with the numbers you are tossing around about the content on FXAW. There are many threads that discuss trading Forex as well as using the Entropy client in it's present stage. If you couldn't find a thread discussing Forex, did you bother to start one on a subject you were interested in? I don't recall seeing any there but I may be wrong.

There is a lot of lively discussion at FXAW, especially during slower times while we wait for new updates to the Entropy system. There are many people who are trading forex using the signals generated from the client and making a profit while doing so. There are many good traders there who share their methods as well as taking time to help the new members out.

I for one have found all that I need to make a profit in my trades, at FXAW.

That account won't update anymore since it was at PFGBest, but you can see, I do quite well.

Perhaps if you become a little more involved at FXAW by posting something, you will get more out of it.

Bernard, I understand your frustration. It's shared by a lot of folks.

But you have to understand Entropy is not "just" an ordinary EA. It's an intensely complex system, a totally different approach to any EA I've ever heard of. You can't apply your "strategy to EA in days" experience to it. You don't generally find this level of analysis outside the halls of Goldman Sachs or similar trading houses. Those places have rooms full of PhDs to develop their strategies, and Craig is just one guy. It's going to take him a while to work miracles.

No one knows if Entropy will live up to its billing. I think there's a good chance. Craig is about the most humble, helpful, and honest guy I've ever come across in trading. He believes Entropy will be amazing. Until proven otherwise, I tend to believe him.

Hi Captain Jack,

I am extremely happy that you are doing so good with your expired DEMO account.
Things cannot get any better than that, I suppose.

FXAW did not offer me anything worth my while, but it does not mean that nobody else can benefit from it. At least three group of people can benefit from it:
- those who have too much time on their hand
- those who have too much money and would like to waste it in memberships and losing Forex strategies.
- both of the above.

You are entitled to your opinion as I am.
I wish you continued success with your demo accounts.

Well, if that's the case, Bernard, then thanks for your contribution of you membership fee. Craig donates everything above the expenses of running FXAW to charity anyway, so at least somebody will benefit even if it's not you.

Cool reply.

I agree. So few people take the time to really understand.
