You have to agree that T2W is predominantly Brit traders? Most of the threads are "Is it possible to make money trading?" or "I just blew another account!" or "Help!". Look at Forexfactory, mainly US traders as far as I can tell and it's all "$500 to $1,000,000 in 20 weeks" or "Easy scalping system for megabucks" or "My journey to $1m from $10k". Miserable *******s, I tell thee.
 
Like the markets, no happy medium, over negative, over enthusiastic, oversold, overbought......


The Brits sell it at 8am and then 1430 comes and up it goes for no real reason
 
Now Shadow m'boy you have to admit that's a bit of a catch22 you got us in there: if we reply and say no we aren't negative, then you can say that we are replying in the negative and hence it proves your point. If we say yes then we are agreeing that we are negative, and that also proves your point.
In conclusion this is just another one of Shadow's cunning plans to take over the world.

:p
 
I think us Brits are under-stated;

We dont go on about "Hey! I made a $1Million", we tend to say "I say, old boy, I do believe I have a method that is rather spiffingly good.".

We are also self-deprecating, hence the "I just blew my account" type threads.

I think its because we Brits dont feel the need to prove ourselves to anyone, thats why its only the yanks that start on about having trading competitions, where they try to prove their method is better than anyone elses.

Brits are cringingly, embarrassingly politically-correct. I have lost count of the number of times I have been asked if I celebrate Christmas or drink alcohol. (mostly by well-meaning middle-class types.)

EDIT: Happy New Year, you miserable buggers.
 
What do you want us to do?

Yell from the rooftops that I made 56Billion USD from zilch and that it was all a scam?!
for eg: Mad-f*king-hoff

Leave it to the Yanks :)

P.S: Some things NEVER change... and I'm happy its that way!
 
Given we have to suffer a totalitarian government in control of a staggeringly inept and incompetent civil service... Given our comedy and music has been going downhill since Python and Zeppelin... Given we once ruled half the world but now only some ****ty islands where the americans can bomb afghanistan from or the locals can practice child abuse... Given more and more Brits are speaking with a southern accent why the **** should we be happy?

The only solution is to create a new country free from self destructive timid sheep and that is what I will do some day.

This might be of help:

The genius of the Brits is that they covinced the whole world they are modest while bragging how they are the best and all. Hehe.
