The last 7 years

So you might be wondering, what happened in the last 7 years?  Where have I been? Why no trades?

Trading was going OK but I came across a consulting opportunity that not only earned me more but was guaranteed.  You see, I charge upfront for my consulting services which translates to guaranteed profits. Something forex just can't deliver.  Minus the stress, minus the uncertainty.  Plus I just needed a break and life style change.  I've said it before and I'll say it again, trading isn't difficult but it's keeping busy, focused, and a cool head is.   

I have to admit I made some bad trades 7 years ago and just didn't have a healthy life-work balance.  Living in Phuket as well was the wrong choice for me.  A tropical island sounds great but for me it just didn't work out.  You can only go to the beach so many times, and I've never been a beach person.  The timezone difference is a little bit of an issue and conflicted with my sports activities.

Now that I'm in Chiang Mai, in the north of Thailand, I do sports in the mornings and have evenings free to trade but seldom trade myself as I have a trading bot carrying out my strategies.  I do from time to time monitor live news and jump in to take a trade but most of the time I'm just fine tuning my bot,  programming new strategies during the day, and analyzing past trades.

All in all I'm the most relaxed and level headed I have been.   I also do not teach and do not take on students anymore.   I just focus on myself and my trading strategies.  I also do not take on investors.  I keep it simple and have no plans on complicating things.

Forex Taurus Signals

 For those of you signed up to my Forex Signal Service, here are some FAQs:

1.  What does FRA mean?  Frankfurt Time. This is my broker's time and will be used for any upcoming news alerts.

2.  What information do you provide?  In addition to upcoming news alerts, you will receive buy and sell signals for EURUSD, GBPUSD, and USDJPY.  

3.  I've received a signal, now what?  The signals are actual trades my bot is placing.  Note that there will a lag of a few seconds for email signals.   You will want to check the current time versus the time of the email to make sure the signal is current and review the chart quickly to confirm the signal matches your trading strategy and to determine your TP and SL levels.  My default TP is 10 pips and SL is 19 Pips.  

4.  Is there any way I can copy your trades?  Email signals are great but not always convenient or timely.  There is a better way.  Ask me about my Metatrader 4 Signal Service that allows you to copy my trades as they are placed.
