Guys, ease up on this kid. At 15 i was still sitting outside the local shops causing general mischief with no plan in life. It's good that he's showing an interest in this serious stuff but obviously doesnt have too much of a clue. This forum is for trying to help people, although he sounds a...

Any updates on FT? I sent Guy an email asking a few questions, seems like a nice bloke (but then again, i'd be nice to someone about to give me a grand) Email response from him was within a day, encouraging start. I dont want to plough too much into this Flag Trader so was thinking of putting...

Been a while since my last post..... can anyone confirm wether Guy Cohen's flag trader is legit please? Reasons i ask, contact numbers on website dead, dead links, amazing claims, waffle about only taking on 89 "students" and all the sales talk is a bit over the top. cheers Joe

Thanks for the reply, look forward to your next post with trade examples. Joe

I was wondering what the difference between Flag-Trader-Stock-Consolidation-Chart-Pattern-Trading-Secret-Flag-Trader (£997) and www.secretflagtrader.co.uk (£1721) is apart from that they seem to be the same system but the price of the system is different. Is one a legit site and the other a con?

Anyone else with any experience with Flag trader? I was thinking about buying the system and trying it for a month but Guy's webpage is making me think twice. Its the typical blah blah blah with a few letters saying how good it is from people who have apparently bought it and made loads (i did...

Hi, I havent had time to read all the pages of replies but it sounds like you have your head screwed on even though you have made some losses. I'm a relative newbie and have heeded lots of advice given to me on this forum and it's saved me a lot of problems. I started trading Ftse100 as did my...

I must be learning because i thought exactly the same thing. I've held off in the afternoon except on one occasion at around 1430 with the US open. Too volatile in the afternoon at the moment. 0700 - 0900 are the goldens hours :) I'm done for the day today anyway but keeping and eye on the...

I used a 15point stop because i was looking to gain 40 points. I'm still new to this and working out risk/reward. Agreed though, i am now using 25 point stops and doing well by just trading in the first hours of opening. today i made 70 points after the drop to 4000 and used a 25 point stop...

Hi everyone, My name is Joe and i've been looking around the site for a while now. New to trading but keen to learn. I work in the haulage industry - office based - and live in Ipswich, suffolk. Love football (someone has to support the Town!) and motocross, i ride as much as possible but it's...

Thanks for the replies, doesn't look like it's possible to get the trade in quickly enough to make use of the first rise or fall though. Back to regular trading strategy i guess. Im only paper trading at the moment, today has been quite boring. Went short at about 0705 with a 15point stop and...

Im glad someone else was thinking the same thing. As for when to close, i would agree that as soon as the sharp rise/fall levels out i would close. Today would have worked fine with tight stops earning around 100 points if closing when it levelled out.

I will backtest it further, do you know where i could get historic charts to do this please? I have some time off work coming up so will look much deeper into this. As for the losing trade, i would only have a 10 point stop loss so that would be my loss on the incorrect trade while if there is...

Hi guys, Sorry if this sounds as daft as i think it may sound but i'm going to put it out there and see if i'm totally wrong with this idea. I'm pretty new to day trading so im expecting criticism or to be shot down.... Ftse100 opens at 4050, Buy with a stop loss of 10 points at £10 per point...
