Hi everyone
At the beginning of October 2012, a new member of Forexstreet.net named Brian Twomey started blogging here at Forexstreet.net. I thought: "look another one trying to sell his stuff.... He won't last...". Certainly Brian had written a book and he was referring to his book at the end of each blog post he was making. Fair enough.
But then Brian decided to run an amazing exercise that turned things upside down: He decided to go for 20 trade recommendations to prove (using his own words):
1. Exchange rate targets are predictable.
2. I can hit targets based on mathematical calculations employing 8 different moving averages.
3. I can hit 20 of 20 trade targets and profit without loss.
On Brian's words: "So far, 15 posted targets hit exactly with two additional trades for 1156? pips thereabouts. Granted, a few entries weren't perfect yet targets hit. Constructive criticism is accepted. The operable word is constructive.
Never in my imagination did I suspect these trades would become the subject of intense debate and scrutiny. I proffer with hope that new traders would become better in their chosen craft and all would garner a greater understanding of currency pairs and price movements. I reiterate, trades offered are educational therefore please manage own risk. Targets will hit, that's written in mathematical stone but market events may cause price deviations so must wait until prices continue their intended price path to target."
Now Brian is one of the most respected members of our community, not just for the accuracy of his calls, but for the interaction he has been having with all of us. I am not sure what the future will bring us all, but I certainly must thank Brian for his great contribution to our community.
Many of us are now better traders thanks to you.
Thanks Brian!
