Hi Silver,

yes, I have left fxnews for about a year ago and I am here since. everything is good. Actually I left fxnews for the fact that there were no moderators and no ignore button (you can see how useful it may be ).
I could not overlook all the buzz in the previous thread of yours, and I want to say couple of things. I am no moderator here but I respect this forum, its members (well, except for one or two that are/were in my own ignore list. We all remember the nice fellow - overload ). I know MT and MT team is making its best to keep this forum clean, fair and the best FX community around, and I think MT post in the end of your last thread says it all.

But even though I know you for long time and I welcome you here sincerely, I think I know what is the problem and why you got the responses you got.

Here is the thing:

No matter how profitable you are and how good your trading will be (and I see its pretty good), most people wont treat you seriously if you say things like
"I will be a millionare in 1 year max";
"many people are bagging me to manage their money";
"made 900 pips".

these kind of claims sound very very immature - please no offense, because no intended.
For example, those 900 pips: if you made 100 pips trading 9 lots, it doesn't make it 900 pips - its still 100 pips. Therefore it doesnt seem to be smart to talk about 900 pips when market moved only 100. I dont know exactly what you meant by those 900 pips, because I didn't make a record of your trades, but risk management is one of the key elements of profitable and long lasting trading, so many would like to see some serious talking before treating same way.

Those people bagging you to manage their accounts - how much money do you have of your own? of you have a 100k and you intend to make it 1 mill in a year, then with this kind of results you can raise at least 10-20 millions in couple years. If you trade for only 25% profit sharing, it would make you.. hmm how much? 50 more millions in next couple of years. We are talking about much serious business here than taking $300 for forecats. You see what I mean - simple math takes you from $300 a month to possible $300k a month.

I may be wrong in what I am saying because I do not know much about your system, money and trading, but I know it was pretty aggressive in the past (the trading).

Still, I agree with Moneytec team and that was my own opinion also to keep our communication in correct manner. After all, if someone doesn't like what they see, its always easier not to read it, and especially not to spend time posting all over the thread

But as you said, probably they are "enjoying" it too much to leave it alone. Come on people, what ever did silver post that made you so angry? so he believes he can become a millionaire in max 1 year. So what? didn't anyone do it before? even less than one year? (not me, don't you look at me ). Everything is possible, and one day we may see article in businessweek about silvers' millions and his company dealing in FX market like about Steve on the wall street.
BTW, if noone has read it, I strongly recommend on their free time:

The Most Powerful Trader on Wall Street You've Never Heard Of

BTW, Steve is charging 50% !!! performance fee!!!

ok then, nice weekend all!
