+1 bro.....One thing i'v learnt on this thread over the years is that, the harder you try to defend yourself or proof someone wrong the more you open up to worst and unwarranted ridicule.

12ema please stop now or you will lose the little respect and fans (newbies) that look up to you for guidance

I'm done. But a word to the wise. Turning the other cheek, letting stuff go, staying silent, does not work in real life. Cyber bullies who hide behind computers and think they can get away with anything by taking pot shots at people need to be shut down. I have never taken anything lying down, and i will not start today. Laying down is how people walk all over you. Go through my posts; not once have i directly referred to anyone and i would not welcome anyone referring to me in a negative light, especially when i don't deserve it. But thanks anyway.

Owliver:
Mr 12ema you don't need to bother urself huh. Like I said that ish could have affected any other broker.... Keep ur good work going. I learn from your long posts about forex many times and I believe many other people also learn. I believe people have different approach to life and also to trading so everyone's opinion is regarded highly... If next time you sense "ridicule" pls just jump am pass. Someone who doesn't post alerts but quick to criticize shouldn't be taken seriously all the time. Have a nice weekend

I swear i nearly respond again but i go waka pass as you talk. Na your face i dey look ooh.

L2CD766:
Nonsense... I use a swiss bank based broker and my funds were tripple-assured after CHF brouhaha.....Alpari and FXCM should admit that they were running an underground bucketshop.. in fact The FCA UK Is a useless regulatory body

So let me get this straight; your whole gripe is based on an opinion i shared concerning a broker who at the time fufiled all my trading needs. Sometimes i wish people would calmly think through their thoughts and actions before engaging in them. Do you in all honesty realize how unbelievably childish and ridiculous your thought process is? it is same as someone asking me what kind of car they should buy and i say "yeah, buy a toyota. They are a very solid and dependable and they have a history of excellent vehicular safety". News flash. In 2009 toyota recalled over 6 milion of their brand because the floor mats that trapped accelerator pedals which caused some deaths over here. This was the largest in history and it put a large dent in their image and bottom line. So, are you going to say because i gave a honest opinion of my experience with toyota at the time, i was wrong or i was trying to lead people astray? With your logic that would have been your myopic conclusion. I sense a deeper problem with you. You've already said i come out as a "BOSS". Well, i can't help being awesome. Wear shades if you can't stand the brightness.

you can never see me question people with clean mind here. you will see me and will continuing see my post on fake trader painting the business as if they are making something out of it or people who preaches what they do no practise.

btw if you read my post this morning, i honestly asked a question my self can benefit from as well as other member

And how do you know this exactly? Is it because of the infantile comments traders like L2CD766 make. Where they distort the truth and try to confuse everyone? Then i completely agree with you. Charlatans like those should be exposed. I never knew we would agree on anything. See, there is always a middle ground and we have just met.

currentprice:
am lying now. and you said your large account is with them. check forex factory read post relating to Alpari discussion on the issue at hand

My bad, but i was just stating the obvious which you put up.

currentprice:
bro leave me with them oooo, we have categories of people here,,,,,, some will come to counter you even if you are not directly charting with them all in the name of mercy for fund raising.

I understand. You need support. I would too if i were you. My awesomeness needs more than one to counter.

currentprice:
yes traders affected badly

As i said today and a long time ago; NEVER EVER TRADE FOREX AS A SOLE SOURCE OF INCOME UNTIL YOU ARE READY. Traders who refuse to acknowledge the truth will get burnt. This is clear evidence. Refer back to my posts. And nowhere does it say those were alpari clients. FYI

L2CD766:
and you're still doing it... when you do finally Realize that this speculatory game we all play is just as it is pls do call me

You are very correct. It is precisely that it is speculative which emphasises that financial responsibility is paramount and flippantly saying forex is forex trivialises it.

currentprice:
i asked for advice you vomiting rubbish,,,,anyway if am not learning anything, am learning from your grammar. a top class indeed ,,,,account segregation/govt regulation yet traders are crying for non payment of their fund over two week,,,,,, what is the fate of a trader that have to pay his monthly house rent from his Alpari account or do you think landlord will listen to confirm receipt from administators concerning claims and the process of getting back funds

What? wait. Just two weeks? Are you serious? You do know this is not an a ajanlekoko establishment. I am just going to have to take your word that traders are crying. And for the ones who cannot pay monthly house rent, refer back to my earlier posts on why you shouldn't trade forex solely as a source of income until you are buoyant enough. You are welcome.

L2CD766:
you're doing it again.... Forex is forex... no truth, no holy grail, no 1% per trade...... forex is just forex... what works for muhammadu can fail buhari, what gains for ebele can blow jonathans account... that is the truth... FOREX IS FOREX cc- kirinwa

See. The ink isn't even dry from my post and you are already telling your special kind of "truth". Let's take the "1% per trade" you so confidently put up. Think of this as mentorship, and you are welcome in advance. We will try to analyze this logically. We know that no strategy is perfect. We know traders go through losing streaks sometimes weeks at a time. We know that strategies have winning percentages and most are less than 50 percent. So, if you do not use a 3 to 5 percent money management principle how do you expect to survive a losing streak. I mean, this is just common sense and mathmatics. It has been proven with the coin theory, dice theory and the the 95 percent losers who don't just get this. Forex is forex; Jesus.

L2CD766:
what currentprice is simply trying to tell you "STOP FORMING BOSS".... be cool, super traders dont blow their horns

I know. But forming boss and telling the truth are two different things. Obviously, you for example, don't know or will ever understand the truth. You want the same "truth" that most failed traders want to hear. Quick riches, 100 percent returns on managed accounts monthly, and trading being an art. (whatever that means). And if i do come out as a "boss", well maybe it's because i am one, trading wise anyway. Please point to one thing i have said that is false or made up. Oh wait, thats never going to happen. Have a good week.

currentprice:
my brother it another weekend what advice do you have for us

let me ask you this: what do you feel about Alpari now.

Your attempt at ridicule is a massive fail. Alpari as an organisation is excellent and top class. You must be scratching that hollow embodiment you call a head and wondering why do i say this? Well, Alpari has numerous regional entities and it is only the UK entity that was affected by the chf policy. All other Alpari entity were not affected. 2) Even that they were affected, they abidded by all regulations and ensured that all retail clients funds where segregated for client protection. To explain that in Barney style, my money is very very safe and secure. Any alpari client worth his salt can confirm receipt from administators concerning claims and the process of getting back funds. If they had been a shabby firm, they would have gone down and taken my funds with them. I knew it was going to happen because the same thing happened to me when fxsol pulled out of the U.S. All accounts were transfered to GAINS and my funds were returned in the exact same process. 3) The only reason they crashed was because they were under capitalized and were unable to withstand such massive drawdown, which could have happened to any broker. Being Under capitalized is not a reflection of their professionalism. So, i hope all this has answered your question. Have a good week.

The world has changed? But are you the one to dictate the change? This is my version of the world. If you dont like it, go dance n.aked in the bush. Tell the same thing u just told me to the Indians, Arabs and Japs.

Who are you to dictate wat is permissable today you faceless creature? Must you always open your mouth for the sake of letting out sound? Dont tell me where to place my pride. I have proper cultural pride unlike you who will forever remain a slave and yab anything that has to do with the pride and legacy of this nation.

Now you are getting boring. Your insults are getting bland with no added flavor. I expect more. I just did a google search and nowhere does it say i am dictating cultural change. This is the world and i just live in it the best i can. It might benefit you to do same. Resistance is futile. (i bet you didn't get that pun) Refusing to accept change will only leave you empty, angry, resentful and antagonistic, as it shows in your responses. You are welcome.

One thing i know for a fact; Never ever mess with an Edo woman unless you are freaking crazy. I am Ishan and i know well enough to steer clear of them irrespective of how beautiful they are. "nuff said.

PAGAN9JA:
Hey f00L ....low esteem urself! Do you spend most of your lifetime @ interviews? Whats wrong with wearing loincloth on the streets if its part of your culture?! Isnt this your homeland? This is Nigeria abeg!
I dont mind wearing it but its not part of my attire.

And btw as far as work environment is concerned , u follow their rules. If its permissable than why not? In those situation , ur choice is not under your control. To bring about a change in the system and mentality will take some years and a revolution.

Its sad that our own people consider our attires inferior.

There you go again with the insults. Can't you express yourself logically and calmly without resulting to verbal barrages? Anyway, your response has navigated a complete 360 towards my first comment which emphasised how much times have changed. The world is dynamic and forever changing, for good and bad. what was permissable back in the day is no longer today. Like i said initially, deal with it. Your misplaced cultural pride is not relevant in this instance.

PAGAN9JA:
Why not Are you mad?

Are you saying me ppl dont wear loincloth these days in developed /developing countries?

Go to India, Oman, UAE, Saudi, Kenya,etc.. and see for yourself.

I did not ask you about people in india, UAE, Saudi, kenya, etc; i asked if you could wear it and make a statement. If so, then i'll like to see you wear one to work or to an interview, since you are so passionate about it. And why the insults? Just so you know, insults during a discourse is a sign of poor argumentative skills, low self esteem, and a reduced IQ.

PAGAN9JA:
[size=28pt]Why are these people dressed up like oyinbo masquerade

Whats with those hats?

Do these black foolz think they are British?


Is this the way Nigerians (Africans) conduct funeral?


WHAT A SHAMEFUL GENERATION[/size].

May the GODS of ova forefathers guide my people on the right path. .



IGBO BURIAL RITES
(Cant bliv as a Hausaman i have to educate Igbos on dia burial rites. Shameful generation)


Among the Igbo people of southeastern Nigeria, death is traditionally a highly ritualized event filled with deep mourning. The traditional burial rites involve not one, but two funerals whose main intention is to safely escort the deceased from the realm of the living to the spirit world. Only after a successful second funeral can the deceased pass from the time of "ita okazi" -- a period of torment -- into a state of peace and contentment.


IMMEDIATE PREPARATIONS

When an elderly man or woman dies, the corpse is immediately stretched out on plantain leaves, sponged down thoroughly and rubbed with camwood dye to mark it as sacred. After the cleaning, the body is laid out in the living room, lying down with the feet facing the entryway -- though if the deceased is a woman, she is often seated upright. Women are also carried in a stretcher back to their ancestral village for burial.

THE WAKE

Once the body has been prepared for its passage from the world of the living into the spirit world, a wake is held. The eldest son of the bereaved family welcomes the community into the home with kola nuts and palm wine. Prayers and libations are spoken to beckon ancestral spirits into the home to escort the spirit of the deceased. The wake lasts the whole night until gunshots are fired early the next morning to alert the surrounding village of the death that has occurred.

FIRST BURIAL

After the wake takes place, the body is immediately buried in a grave dug in the living room. Also enclosed are a large quantity of cloth and some of the deceased's most valued possessions in life. Men are often buried with their tools, gun or fishing gear, and women with their pots and dishes. The body is then placed in the grave by young men and encased in wooden planks.

SECOND BURIAL

The first burial, however, is not the end of Igbo funeral rites. Several months or even a year after the body is buried, a second funeral is held, but this time, it is accompanied by feasting and merry-making rather than mourning. Visitors dress in their best attire, and sing and dance to alert the community of the event that is about to be held. After the second funeral, the deceased is said to have been sent off to take up a new place in the land of the dead.

Remember Ojukwu's body was kept for 97 days? That was a short time for a Chief actually.

Because the Igbos strongly believe in reincarnation, proper burial rites are required in order to accomodate the soul.

What can i say? Times have changed, deal with it. Our fore fathers strolled around in loin cloth; would you want to wear one now?

An unmanned drone suspected to be used on the counter-insurgency operation in the Northeast has crashed at Dumge village of Mafa Local Government Area of Borno State this afternoon, KSM News has learnt. Dumge is 30km northeast of Maiduguri.

Earlier today CNN had reported that the U.S. Secret Service is investigating a “device,” described as a small drone, found on the grounds of the White House, a White House official said Monday, and Press Secretary Josh Earnest said early indications are that the device does not pose an ongoing threat.

The Secret Service is sweeping the White House grounds on Monday morning looking for anything else that might be on the ground.

At Mafa, KSM News could not dig deep to ascertain the source or make of the drone but one Muktar Usman says of the drone on the social media as follows: "It could be French. And what happened after that? The drone is still armed. I can see missiles attached to the wings. Locals have to be careful!"

The Nigerian military is yet to issue statement regarding the drone.

As if there was ever a "manned drone". It's called a drone precisely because it is never manned. Nigerians and their ever grand hyperbolic embelishments.

L2CD766:
you're loosing it dude... I have doubled my account, I havr trippler it, I have lost half, I have gained several random percentages. Forex trading is an art not science, there are no laid down rules.. never risk more than 1% blah blah blah..... forex trading is an extension of the trader himself. cc-kirinwa

Hey...I don't doubt your abilities or account. You could have 1$ or 1M, we a re all warriors behind a computer, so there's no way to know. But don't sell that BS that trading is an art crap. It's math pure and simple. Unless you know better than the best traders who have proven this. Funny thing is some young buck would read your comments and actually believe it to be true.

L2CD766:
no let oga 12ema catch u oooo....... 3% MoM ROI na big tin to dem oooh.. how much more 100%

Wait. Hold up. You telling me you still don't know the difference between risk and reward? God help me. I'm starting to sound like a broken record. You can risk 3% for unspecified rewards. How is that hard to understand? I bet i know what you are thinking right now. You are thinking "fhuck, I should have thought hard before i said anything". And you are welcome. I just helped square you away. And for 100% consistently? well, good luck with that. You deserve to be duped if you believe that crap.

Nigerians are so used to gore that they are now immune to it. It is not normal.

is this a valid entry?

That is a very valid entry. Just follow such breakouts and you'll be fine.

@ 12ema, looks to me like you sold GJ at support, it needs to clearly break 176.10 for the DT to continue from where I am standing. Same for EC, the bands are beginning to close up as opposed to opening and the candles sticking to them.

I am not trading those time frames you are looking at. I first look at the big picture and make sure all levels are broken, then move to the lowest TF possible. Price had already broken all support on the 5min when i took those trades on friday. Also, the bands opening/closing, or price sticking to them is not a parameter in the system i use, so i don't consider that as a factor.

Eurcad/GbpJpy Trade: This is not a trade alert. Just an observation

Good. Everyone knows this will lower the price of fuel in Nigeria.

And here i am thinking i will see a picture of a place of delicious jollof rice. Damn!!!

murphydon:
Sir, Thanks for the inspiring articles, can this strategy be applied to Renko?. Thanks alot

To be honest, i am not sure. The system is based on a typical trend following strategy which tries to get you into a trend not at the beginning of it but almost in the middle. It uses swings and breakouts and from my knowledge of renko, which basically just shows you a trend over an X amount of pips/time, there is no way to identify a swing or a breakout. That being said, if i were to trade the system with renko, i would place the renko chart and the system side by side on my screen and try to identify a swing and use the the renko chart as confirmation of a trend. I would suggest backtesting this theory for a while to see if it might be possible. Good luck.

I get it, one must use the faults of your opponents to discredit them and win the confidence of the voting public, but this form of campaigning is dangerous. Remember, they still have to work together when the elections are over. How do you work together when all bridges have been burned. This is how wars are started.

Nice. I have one just like that, and i have to tell you, if you are avid biker, you'll want one.
