Morning, Nick.

Morning.

I really appreciate the time that you've taken out of your day to afford me this opportunity to find out how your trading's going and, like, what you think of everything. Let's first start with an introduction. So this is Nick Popen. He's a client of mine. He uses my robot and he's also using my strategy or learning my strategy. So how long have you been trading, Nick?

I started trading in October, early October.

Oh, so you're brand new?

Yeah, I'm very new.

What do you do for a living?

I've got an ice cream shop and I dabble a little bit in property, a little bit there.

Okay.

But yeah, look, I want to make a side income, which is what I was looking for online. So I was searching around and I found you. And I did my kind of due diligence and checked it up and seemed reasonable. When I compare it to everybody else that I kind of looked up, it was offering unrealistic.

Returns and stuff. So, you know, straight off the bat. But, you know, your returns that you were indicating were very acceptable and very enriching. And I was very excited by the fact that I could make very good returns, but not unrealistic returns. So that's the reason why I went to your website and I went and looked at the testimonials and read everything about it. And then I joined and I haven't regretted it since. It's been a great journey. Been some ups and downs, but.

It'S a thrush, it's a thrill. Sometimes it's difficult to take your eyes off the screen because you say, just relax, sit back, just let it do its thing. But it's difficult sometimes when you just see the candles going up and down like crazy.

Yeah.

So, yeah, that's. That's me. So I'm. I'm a new trader. I have made some mistakes, but I'm on the right track now.

Okay. Awesome. Are you making profits using my.

Forex strategy? I am.

I'm making profits. I'M I'm hedged at the moment.

Okay, good.

Obviously with the situation. And I've tried to be active on the, on the telegram groups, sometimes to the detriment, sometimes not. I like to try and help people. But, yeah, I'm hedged. And then I mentioned to you, yes, yesterday, I'm thinking about removing my hedge. And you said, what? What's the point? Why? And then all of a sudden shot up to 2040, 2045, and my hedges at 2014 or 2015 or something like that. So it was the right thing to do.

To stay in the trade.

Yes, to stay in the trade. But, you know, from a historical point of view, I rushed in really quickly and I didn't watch all the videos, I admit. And the first six weeks or so was great. I mean, I was. Money was coming in great, was making good returns. And then we hedged.

Yes, thank God. Because that's what the robot's supposed to do. It's supposed to hedge your accounts and then wait for the volatility to settle and then you've got options.

Yeah. So I got, I got hedged and I didn't know what to do and I kind of panicked and I was rushing around trying to find out what I must do and made some silly mistakes which were my own fault because I didn't follow the rules. Yeah. And I did end up losing some money, but I didn't lose a lot.

Eventually I.

Opened up a new account back in February and funded that one. And I've moved that money from that first account into the new account. And so all my money's in there. And I left $100 in the original account to practice with run. And that's $125 now I'm waiting now.

That's fantastic. Over what period of time?

Since, since early in Feb. Maybe about the 8th, 10th of February. So it's about two months.

Okay, so 12 and a half percent per month. Call it, call it 12. That's about 144% per year. And that is without compounding.

Yeah, that, you know, it's. I, we're busy looking at this. The, the hoping for the next eight EMA to, to kick in and we drop under, get the second candle under the ADMA. And then I'm going to use $100 and I'm going to stick in a short.

Okay, good.

And that'll boost it, hopefully by quite a few dollars.

Absolutely, absolutely. So it's interesting that you've only been trading since, since September, so you've actually Got nothing to compare me with. But I want to go back to your first statement of you did your due diligence. How did you do your due diligence?

Well, I first of all have wanted to investigate, you know, who Alan was and what he did and what he stood for. And so I did some searching on the Internet and was happy with everything that I saw. And I've just seen so many other bots out there that promise great returns and.

I just didn't trust. Was no interaction with the users kind of thing. You could see kind of put the money in and they would deal with it and there was no support. There would be no support. When you're great because you're available all the time, except when you're on holiday flying all over the place. I'm still available or on. Yeah, or on the beach. But you know, you communicate with everybody in the group. You help everybody in the group and I really appreciate that.

It's good for morale and it keeps you sane and it takes, you help to take the emotions out of the whole thing because that's, that's where people get, get caught out. That's what I got caught out originally. But I'm on the right track.

I think it's impossible to remove the emotion out of trading. We're not robots. We are emotional beings. And I think that if you've got trading rules and money rules, it definitely lessens the pain of.

Trying to make a decision because it's in black and white for you.

Yeah, yeah, look, another, another great thing that you do is that when, when an issue arises and there's a lot of, a lot of talk about things, you, you make a quick video and then you, you send it out to everybody and explaining what, what people must do. And that is like gold.

That'S so important. We had a couple of inc.

You sent out videos within, within 30, 40 minutes explaining to people. This is what you need to do people or not. Well, this.

Yeah, well, it's not trading advice because I'm not allowed to do that. But I'm just explaining to you how to read a forex chart and this is what I'm doing. So I'm not telling you to follow me. It's. I'm just explaining to you how I read the chart and then I'm trading with you guys and I'm showing you exactly what I'm doing. And, and you've got options. I'll give you different options and you need to put on your big boy panties and make a trading decision. Yeah, I try and remove, I give you different options and I'll tell you what the risk is and then you need to then make that decision.

Yeah, look, you make it very clear you're not a financial advisor and everything we stand there, you're just telling us what you're doing and if, if we choose to follow that, then it's up to us to basically do that. So.

Yeah, so, but all the groups that you've got on the telegram, fantastic. One for the new guys, one for the heads, people, how to read the forex chart, etc. Etc. It's all invaluable stuff and it's good to see the interaction. It's disappointing to see some of the people not, not posting anything at all. Yes, you're not required what they're doing and I'd like to hear more from other people.

So unfortunately, you know, people don't like forums.

And.

It'S just human nature. People don't like to be on public forums and people are shy, embarrassed, they don't want to ask these questions. They feel that they're stupid questions. A lot of the time people say, I know this may sound like a stupid question. And it's only the people that don't ask questions, they won't be here in weeks. They, they'll lose their money and they'll become a statistic, forex, statistic. 98% of traders out there lose money and it's because they, they don't have, they don't have mentorship or if they do have mentorship, they don't take the mentorship seriously and they don't ask questions. It's only the people that ask questions and engage on the group, they. That are the ones that will last and not just lost, make money.

Yeah, let's. It's very important to have a mentor because you know, if you go off the track you can get it, get, not advice but you know, help, assistance.

Guidance, if you want to call it that, and also moral and mental support.

So from, from a mastermind perspective, because that's what that group is, it's, it's a mastermind. You, how do you find it? How do you find, do you find the other traders knowledgeable? Are you learning from the other traders? You say that the support is fantastic. How do you find me as a mentor?

Yeah.

The group is great. You get, you can see in there, there are new guys, the newer guys tend to be a little more vocal because they ask you quite a lot of questions and the older guys are. You pick up after a While who the experienced ones are. But what is great is that there's a lot of activity in there. You are always on there giving your support and answering questions and that kind of stuff. So from that perspective, it's invaluable. That's what that master one group is. It's invaluable because people are also throwing ideas around. And, you know, when you get certain patterns in the candles, people say, well, I'm seeing one thing. And the next guy says, no, well, I'm not seeing that. I'm seeing something else. And it kind of gives you a different perspective on different options that may happen within the charts. But you, Alan, you know, as a mentor, Alan, you. Great, thank you.

You're available.

You're not shy to ask questions. You're not shy to test us as well by saying, what's the answer to this? Boys or girls?

And then you don't get much of a response. And then you kind of say, come on, let's. Let's get looking at this. And that's quite nice. I'm a bit timid sometimes to respond because I get the wrong answer.

He wants to get it wrong. Sure, absolutely. Especially on a public forum with over 400 people forward.

But I, I don't mind. I don't mind getting it wrong. That's one of those things.

That's how you learn, you know, you, you fail forward. You know, that's the. It's the only way to get it right is to get it wrong.

Yeah, yeah. It's all a learning thing. I still haven't completed all the videos yet. I still got videos to go through and look at, but.

You know, I'm not shy to admit that. So I'm still a bit on the cautious side because I don't want to get myself into a sticky situation. And currently I'm in a good spot. My bank's looking good, I'm making money and.

My drawdown isn't particularly high at this point in time. And I've got money in the bank in case we hedge again.

I can, I can fund the account.

But you don't have to. I mean, we've got strategies that you, you.

Yeah.

You even have to fund your account. You could still trade out of.

Yes. Which is. That's what we teach you.

How. Have you found the, the, the, the lessons and the videos and the course material? Is it easy to understand? Is it comprehensive? Is it complicated? Is it paint? By now, as I say, it's supposed to be. Is it paint by numbers?

It is. It is A paint by numbers. And it's, it's very straightforward, it's very easy to understand.

I, I mean I'm so eager. I mean I just spent hours and hours watching all the videos, setting it all up, getting it done and I had it, I had to think set up very quickly. Within a day, I think it was.

Are you talking about the robot?

Yeah, getting everything set up to get going. Right, to get going. That was the initial, initial part because you, you say, you know, pause the video, come, you know, do your thing and come back to the video. And that's an important, important part because if you miss a step then you could be in trouble, but you make it, you make it very clear. And all the other videos that you've got on their hedge, they're getting out of the hedge.

And, and the other ones are, they're all.

Important in their own ways in order to be a successful trainer. But from a, from an understanding point of view.

You can't get it much more straightforward than the way you put it. You know.

I know you're going to edit this video to, you know, one thing. There may be one or two that are slightly out of date now because.

Yeah. So the platforms, you know, I can't control.

The. How the other people operate their websites like FPS will change how we log in or, or the back office and.

It'S. Yeah. I can only know if it's outdated if I'm, if I'm alerted by my clients and I think you did a. If there was one or two videos on FBS and how to set up your account has changed it slightly different. So I updated that specific video about eight times and it's like irritating.

Yeah. Because I, I'm. I'm currently running. Look, my MT4 on my Android, I don't have all the.

Oh, you. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. I need to make a Android phone.

And borrow it, nick it from the weekend.

I'll make a new video. I commit.

Need a new one. Yeah. Thanks.

No problem.

Do you find that my, my strategy, the Forex strategy, the Atmo strategy is a simple to understand strategy.

I, I believe it is.

Once you've done. Once you've gone to start with, when you using it for the first time, you're a little unclear. Unsure. But once you've used. You've watched the videos a few times and you've gone through the experience a couple of times, then it's like. It's easy, it's second nature. Especially with.

The moving average, the eighth ema and when the the, the candles open above and below and you've got a doji and so on and so on. Once you've got that into your brain, it's, it's really straightforward. It's just getting your mind around.

It'S almost practicing it kind of thing.

Am I your first experience in Forex?

Yes, I had no, no Forex experience at all.

And you know what triggered it was I went to the UK last year to see my family and I met up with my brother and he said he got involved with some trading of some kind. I'm not quite sure what it was. And he.

Put 10 grand into this thing and from that 10 grand he was making 10 grand a day and he made quarter of a million pounds very, very quickly. And then he lost that almost down to nothing. And he then went in the hole a little bit and then he got back out, he got his quarter of a million and he stopped, he didn't do anymore. But that intrigued me and he was, it was, it was trading okay. And that's why, that's why I went online. I thought, well, I said, he said he will never do it again because he didn't know what he was doing. He just, you know, it wasn't like he was watching the markets and this kind of stuff. I think it was other people doing, doing it for him.

Very dangerous there.

Yeah, yeah. So he, he realized that he got out lucky he made money.

So that's what triggered it for me is to get involved in, in trading in, in Forex. And that's when I went hunting around looking for some, for something and I found you. So yeah, I haven't, I haven't experienced it but any, anybody else. I've been put off by the fact that all the other people don't seem to be, don't seem to have a face on you. There's no real communication. Sometimes you have to hand over the cash to them and they deal with it and it's all dangerous stuff. So what's great with you is that we have control of our own money. We do what we want with our money. We can withdraw it, we can put it, do what we like.

So. And it's safe with fbs. So because it's ring fence, as far as I'm aware, all the money. So they don't even have your money.

That money is with the liquidity provider. So actually with like a bank. So the intermediary, they're the broker and they get the Forex feed from the liquidity provider. So that's how it works.

Yeah. So I'm very comfortable with the whole situation, especially having the money, my money in my hands kind of thing.

That's the. One of the most important aspects of trading. Never give your money to somebody and just trust somebody off the bat. It's very, very dangerous. So my, my job is about making you independent and learning how to read. You know, give the man a fishing rod rather than give him the fish.

Yeah.

Teach him rather than just giving him the fish. Do you, do you feel.

Yeah, sorry, Ellen. No, the other thing that's great is your arrangement with FBS is that there's no swap fees.

Yes.

And that's massive. Yeah. Like I don't think you people know how important it is to not have.

They don't. No. No swap fees, no taxes. Unbelievable. In your videos, do you feel, do you feel supported? How do you mastermind group? My mentorship on the group and.

Yeah.

Look, there's not only from yourself.

As a mentor.

The group are very supportive of everything that you do. No one's. You can put any question in and it gets answered and even if it seems like a ridiculous question.

Yeah, there's no such thing. There's so many people there to support you and offer you guidance and answers to your questions that you may have that you feel completely supported. I mean I've got my laptop open most of the day so I'm kind of watching and comments come through all the time. Even at night when the next candle is going to open up at midnight, you think, oh, here we go. So yeah, the sports right there from you specifically, but from the others as well because one or two of the other traders on the telegram group, on the mastermind group are very experienced. I don't know if I can mention names but I know you can cut and edit. But that, that guy, guy, he's, he.

Said he's an ex bank trader.

Yeah. So you know, he's got, so I, I look out for him.

Yeah. And.

Yeah, so it's support is, is phenomenal. I'm very happy with that.

Yeah. Fantastic. What would you tell somebody that was looking at trading with me with regards to the robot and my, my free course, what advice would you give them?

Your what course? Your EA course?

Forex course. Both.

Oh, okay. No, if, if you're going to do, if you want to get involved with Forex tradings, especially with gold, because that's what.

We do.

Alan does.

Alan's the man. You're the man to go to because you, you have proven success.

And if you're Going to join, go through Alan and make sure that you watch all the videos completely, maybe even twice. And then you, you need to then implement the tactics, the methods and then start off, and start off slowly with small amounts and get, get used to how it works and how the robot works.

That's. That would be my advice.

Are you enjoying the fact that I do trade live with you guys? And you can see that I am not just preaching but practicing it 100%. Let me ask you my last question. Have you found that my. I'm accurate? And to what percentage do you think I'm accurate?

Yeah, no, for sure. Look, your post say this is what I think is going to happen. It's going to hit the 34, 32 moving average and it's going to bounce up to here and it's going to then stay there for. You're very accurate. It's quite uncanny how you seem to get it right 95% of the time. Yeah, no, look, your accuracy has been, is quite incredible. Then you'll go back and say, look, I told you boys. And then you'll say, did you follow? Did you, did you follow me? I don't got to be careful how I put this. Yeah. Did you follow what I did?

Yeah. Well, did you take a trade or did you, what did you do? Like, how are you guys trading? It's, I like to know like what you guys are doing and you know, it's interesting. Yeah, it's interesting. Look, I, I think you know, having a. It's about 85 to 90 accurate with my.

With the way I read it and.

It'S. What a gift.

What a gift. And give and share this with everybody in one, in less than one minute. What would you tell people? Would you tell them to get involved or run?

No, get involved. If you've got money, you need to invest or want to invest.
