    My experience with the forex course Learn to Trade/Smartcharts by Greg Secker

    That’s the thing with these trading scams… Firstly, these artists register Limited companies with Companies House which means they have personal asset liability protection against bankruptcy. Secondly, there is a continuous cycle of companies which are folded and a created as the debts and...

    The funded trader

    Look up Tuco Trading, FTX, MyForxFunds to understand the reasons why they were bankrupt and all will become clear.. Finra (or FCA in the UK) registration implies that in addition to following other rules and regulations, the firms have to segregate your cash in special accounts. That is why...

    My experience with the forex course Learn to Trade/Smartcharts by Greg Secker

    Most likely a paid Secker shill or a lackey. Shills can be bought cheaply off places like Fiverr for a few quid. These days 100's of fake good reviews can also be cheaply purchased very easily. Therefore always ask any mentor for brokerage statements for the last few years before buying any...

    The funded trader

    If they are registered with Finra, they will be on Finra's register. You should be able to check for yourself on the Finra website. However no company is safe from failure. You would have to search the internet with regards to how credible they are but you would at least know where the money is...

    Pro Trader Programme for Magnetic Trading

    It would only be possibly worthwhile if there was evidence that the people doing the course were profitable themselves. Therefore it's important to ask the company owners 1) for brokerage statements and 2) to match their calls with the statements to see they at least trade the calls themselves...

    The funded trader

    There are loads of "prop firms" propping up everywhere at the moment due to the boom. Be careful of the distinction between the funded firms where the model is based on a monthly fee and the older prop firms. The main difference is that your money and account will NOT be safe ate the newer firms...

    Pro Trader Programme for Magnetic Trading

    Seems to be run by a couple of people called Mark Austin and Cameron Malik. Looking at their about page, both look like ex- double glazing salesmen. Mark Austin calls himself "MR FTSE". Last person who I came across who named himself after a stock index - the infamous Alan Rich who called...

    MACCI For Ninjatrader

    I don't really use Grey1's methodology. I use some concepts but primarily use a different methodology melded from different places with orderflow, volume profile and some other tools I've built.

    MACCI For Ninjatrader

    It's set to the default settings (Period=6, Smoothing=5) that Grey1 used. I'm not sure what the MA default setting is. I think Grey1 used EMA. I don't use it myself but you can play with the settings.

    Here is a software I have written (taken and modified code base from other platforms). I don't use it myself but others might find it useful. It compares an equity to another symbol and plots a relative strength value. Default comparison is against SPY. Change to one of: SPY (S&P 500), DIA...

    US Futures Tax (US side) for non-US-resident, non-US tax payer traders

    I believe you will need to fill out a w8ben form as a non-US foreign individual to tell the IRS that your tax reporting on any US income will be done in the UK. Until you do that, the US based broker may not release any money for transfer to your Uk bank.
