No, Trader Dante is NOT selling signals !

OK, it was me who started that other thread asking Tom if he was selling signals because of what somebody else said which in fact seemed to have a basis at the time but actually turned out to be just a misunderstanding.

Anyway, I created the other thread which wasn't exactly great for the reputation Tom built up here, so, to do the honourable thing, it should be me clearing his reputation up with what he himself has to say on the matter:

OK, I've just discovered that thread (now closed) that asked me if I was selling signals.

As stated above, I have NEVER nor would I EVER sell signals.

There is one guy at my firm that did but I HAVE NEVER DONE SO.

I very much appreciate BSD sticking up for me but can see where the misunderstanding arose because as Ceydababy posted, I had written about posting a trade to my subscribers over on Collective2.

Firstly, I DID start a system over there that I was planning to give signals on but I quickly decided against it. I think I made two calls in total and then closed the system.

I never collected money for doing so and would not do so in the future.

It is totally against my nature.

I spend most of my day giving help on T2W for FREE and post of my trades on here at any rate - sometimes before I take them (so technically calls) and more often, after.

So, once again, sorry if there was a misunderstanding. While that post was valid at the time, I NO LONGER HAVE ANY SIGNAL SERVICE and DO NOT PLAN ON HAVING ONE.

I now trade in the direct market and in markets like the GBP and FTSE futures which I trade actively, a signal service could only threaten me by creating unnecessary slippage.

If I was to create a signal service, you can presume - and I will state this quite clearly for everyone to read here - that I am not doing very well in my trading - I would have some problems that are preventing me from capitalising on my own signals. That might be something as harmless as the mere fact I have psychological issues pulling the trigger, but there would definetly be a reason why I am selling signals and not making the trades myself.

Well said Tom.

Couldn't read this last night any longer, but I couldn't agree more with what you say.

Real traders trade, there is absolutely no reason for you to sell signals for peanuts while simultaneously destroying your methods earning power because of the inevitable slippage if instead you are an accomplished trader with the potential to compound yourself to the sky.

Good trading mate

:)

Good, now I can get some sleep tonight.

I knew it didn't make sense he'd sell signals and teach people to trade at the same time on potential setups, that's just bad business-sense.

So does anyone owe anyone any apologies - or is it best not going there :p

Hahe mate :D

Well as long as people go read Tom's Making money trading thread in atonement then all's fine with me.

Over and done with.

Now, on to the important things in life.

Err, this ?!?

Apology.....

Tom,

Sorry mate if I smeared your reputation in anyway. It really was not my intention. I just used that post from a while back to illustrate my belief that you were selling signals. I also wanted to demonstrate the fact that I had no problem with you for doing it.

It turns out as events have run there course that I was mistaken and you aren't selling signals. I would just like to put on the record that I retract the any comment/suggestion that I have made infering that you are a "dreaded" signal seller. I believe it's only right for me to do that.

Anyways as I see it this is a storm in a teacup. No hard feelings Dante or BSD.

Heck me absolutely neither mate, nothing worse than old whingers bearing grudges, not being able to let go and move on imo.

That's not me at all.

We had our virtual beer(s) together and as far as I'm concerned alls fine again.

Good trading and happy holidays Ceyda.

:)
