First, thanks for the great forum, Steve. And for all your work in the past, some of which I've come across elsewhere and have had the privilege of using.
Now to what I hope doesn't come across as a moan.
After several days browsing this forum and reading threads, I keep finding references that I don't understand. It's not because of lack of knowledge but more to do with lack of being in with several of you when you were actively participating at FF.
Case in point: brijon's Pitbull Trader For Advanced Traders only thread. I have huge respect for Brian and have watched some of his videos in the past, but to understand the references in this post you have to be not an advanced trader but rather a trader who has spent a lot of time in FF - in this case the T101 original thread and all the T101 spin-offs such as the T101 indicator development thread etc. How else would one know, for example, what a 101S indicator is? That's just one example.
To try and understand threads like these would require not just trading knowledge, but extensive trawling through War & Peace sized FF threads. And that reduces the usefulness of some of the threads here a bit (though not all threads, I hasten to add!) These threads come across as continuations of conversations started elsewhere and to the extent they do they serve to exclude those who weren't part of the original conversations. It is of course easier to simply continue a conversation than start afresh for the benefit of newcomers so I don't hold that against anyone.
Some of us aren't raw newbies, but aren't old FF hands either. For us, some of these threads are a bit frustrating, but maybe you old timers can take on board that not all new members signing up here are necessarily either raw newbies or long standing FF members.
Much appreciated. Once again, many thanks for all your work and for hosting these boards and sorry if this comes across as a complaint, it wasn't meant as one.
