TRO 'defense team',
I think you are missing a lot of what CunParis and others are saying about TRO. The form thing was only one example of what many thought was TRO provoking people / causing what I would consider, unnecessary drama. If you re-read his post, there were many other things which took place, many other complaints, etc, prior to him being banned. It would seem in your most recent posts, you are trying to make it out to be that because of his choice of fonts/colors he was banned. This is not accurate.
It is unfortunate that he was banned, but in my opinion, his 'fate' here at futures.io (formerly
BMT ) lied in his own hands the entire time.
But, life moves on, and like you have posted, he has his own forum for others who feel they can benefit from his experience and his method of educating people.
Gary
I agree, that it was entirely his own doing. While I learned a lot, his constant whining about being banned, and his childish response to the fonts, was entirely in his hands. Personally I think he likes being banned, so he can complain about it and therefore his actions lead to that result.
To say banning him was wrong, is like saying it's okay to yell fire in a crowd threatre.
Again at first I supported his being here and what he was doing, but frankly it he was all over the place with it and it grew tiring.
I am neither surprised nor upset.
Pete

Indicators that TRO "improves" are named XXXXXX_TRO_MODIFIED.
Original TRO indicators start with TRO_.
Let's post facts not fiction especially since TRO is not allowed to set the record straight.
> original starts with TRO? like this? now who is confused fact with fiction.
ps. I 're-use' others code left and right too but I don't act so high and mighty about it.

Great call websouth. I actually only took two trades today. One I posted in my journal. Other I still need to post. Sadly it was a dumb trade. Oh well, rinse and repeat.

TRO, where are your entry/exit here ???
Where is the trade ???
Good question. What would you think to be good entrypoints for a green rat trade ?

Not sure if you consider me as part of the 'last group of posters' but here goes. Entry @ 1.62295, exit @ 1.63776
You do the math.
I learned this stuff thanks to TRO and a host of others ( like MightyOne, Dragon33, es/pip ) on https://www.kreslik.com/ .
It is based on Mighty Zones, Zero Lines and price action .
I don't use squiggly's.

We could be learning more about trading if you would stop carrying on with the drama.
Blz
I suggest you and the ones you are speaking for ("we" could be learning more) take the following actions:
1. post what you think the answer is to the question that sam028 asked re. the rat trade that JAT posted,
2. have a look at my post and start asking questions.
That way you and others might be learning more.
I'm willing to share what I know, but I'm not going to spoon feed anyone.

Let's see. Entry @ 1.62295, exit @ 1.63776. That's 148.1 pips .
S/L was at 1.6217, that's 12.5 pips . It could have been less still.
Now let's see. 2.5% risk on this trade and an account of say 1000 GBP would be 25 GBP which equates to 25/12.5=2 GBP per pip .
Total profit would be 2 * 148.1 = 296.20 GBP or a whopping 29.62%
Or ((148.1/12.5)*25)/1000=29.62%
Nobody seems to care. But then again 95% of the traders are losing traders. Gee wizz, I wonder why..
