The Forex Noob

In the previous post Ben referenced Kreslik. That is The Rumpled Ones Kreslik Traders Community forum.

I stumbled on Kreslik Traders Community last week and started playing with TRO’s Drain the Bank system. I don’t get it entirely but apparently if you do get it, you can win big. Problem is I’m a noob and TRO’s instructions are less than explicit.

Apparently The Rumpled One is often banned from forums for “sharing too much information“. I have mulled over starting a forum here so we can have dialogues going instead of me just spouting off but have yet to take the leap. Now I’m interested in doing a forum to get TRO info flowing. It would include other stuff as well of course.

Any interest?

Check out Kreslik Traders Community and let us know what you think about TRO’s systems. Do you fully understand them? If so please, please help!

Thanks for your time,

I’m a total noob when it comes to Forex. But I’m interested in learning and while doing so figured I’d share what I discover.

The first thing I’ve found is that the world of Forex seems to be littered with crooks. There are Forex brokers who will trade against their clients, people selling Forex systems and software that will never live up to their hype or are simply scams.

A bit about me, in my youth I had dreams of becoming a player in arbitrage. I entered collage ready to earn a degree in Finance only to find that it boring. Thankfully I found relief in my Marketing classes and eventually earned B.A.s in both Finance and Marketing.

The love of the markets never left me but I couldn’t see myself living with charts and figures all day every day. Marketing and advertising allowed me to use a creative side that I find more pleasurable. And so I set my financial dreams aside and enjoyed a career in media, Radio and Publishing with a dabbling in Interactive.

Then one day while searching for extra income opportunities particular ones available from home for my wife and I stumbled upon Forex Trading. I fell in love immediately. My arbitrage dream leapt from a high up shelf deep within my memory and took control.

I’m excited, but cautious.

My intentions are:

1)      to make a lot of money in Forex (really I’ll be happy adding a little to our monthly income)

2)      not get scammed, if I lose my money I want it to be due to my trading mistakes.

3)      Share what I learn to help other Forex Noobs avoid the pitfalls of the Forex world and prosper.

A promise I will make from the start is that I will have no financial tie with any products, web sites, brokers, etc. reviewed on Forex Noob unless that relationship is fully disclosed. Due to the growing number of JV and affiliate programs on the internet you can never be sure if the product reviewer is getting paid for their praise or not. Here at Forex Noob you can be assured that I will honestly report my beliefs. If I get to the point where I am offered a fee for anything it will be disclosed to you.

Fair ‘nough?

Happy learning and profitable trading to all.

Jeff, the Forex Noob
