Rules
Rule #1 – We trade and talk about one pair only
Rule #2 – We consult through charts and annotations. All charts should clearly explain the concepts supporting trade ideas or observations. All charts must have readable TF indication, time scale, price level information. No charts taken from a mobile phone are accepted.
Rule #3 – Do not show positions on your charts. We focus on concepts and the nature of price movements, not on what one can or can not do with it. You can describe your planned entry points, exit points, expectations but I want you to keep the information on how your trades work out to yourself. You can show your trades to me, because I am unlikely to get influenced, but not the others.
Rule #4 – Everyone will have a channel where his or her charts are posted. The channel owner and I can add information only. Others can only read the content. These are the channels for one-on-one consultation but everyone can learn from the content. I have my own channel, too, that’s where I post my charts.
Rule #5 – This community is not for showing off but for analysis and study only. If you have a need to speak with others, use the small-talk channel. I will likely have no time to show up there.
Rule # 6 – FX pair talk channel – this is where you can freely discuss the movements of the pair we all focus on (USDCHF) with other members.
Rule #7 – Other FX pairs talk channel – this is where you can freely discuss the movements of other pairs on our radar. I will likely stay away.
Rule #8 – Q&As and knowledge base channels will be maintained by me only for the purpose of compiling and spreading knowledge the most efficient way. You can ask questions in your own channel or during Q&A sessions held weekly or bi-weekly. I will address all questions concerning functional trading.
Rule #9 – It is your responsibility to learn about your trading platform and money management. My only concern is the nature of price movements.
Rule #10 – I am a chartist and we will not discuss fundamentals, only note when and what news events are coming up.
Rule #11 – Use as few words as possible to ask or tell what you want.
Rule #12 – Do not mix strategies. You may think that some might complement this approach. Believe me, no additions are needed. You can study the strategies coming from my teachers, I will even encourage you to do so. However, I have been doing this long enough to reach certainty. You can use other selected approaches even discuss it with others, I do not mind. However, I will not feel obliged to address other strategies and concepts or be able to read and respond to annotations related to concepts other than functional trading.
Rules #13 – Please do not have doubt in what I teach. Depending on your current level, you will likely become very frustrated at several points in your studies and then more and more hours (months or years) will be needed to sort your issues out. Not being able to see something that somebody else is is likely to be your problem only. It is not that I can not take criticism but it is unlikely to help you in accepting and understanding some of the concepts. I understand that belief is a double edged sword and I will never ask you to follow everything blindly without thinking and your own investigation. Just do not let doubt kill your openness and persistence. However, you can always question my trade setups.
Rule #14 – Do not share what you learn with others outside the groups. I can not stop you from doing that, so I just let you know that it is not ethical.
Rule #15 – Please do not expect me to respond quickly, especially daytime. I need to focus on my own trading and interruption is a killer to good trading. I can support you in the early morning, late evening and over the weekend. If my response comes late, it means I care, only do not have the time to respond promptly. This is why the annual subscription should be workable, let’s not trap each other and cause unnecessary stress to me to deliver and to you to learn in a short period of time.
Rule #16 – Respect to everyone. Keep your ego under control.
Temporary ban will be imposed on those who do not follow the rules. Nothing personal, just a reminder. All rules serve you to become a better trader in the shortest possible time and few may hit the jackpot.
