From a learn to read a Forex chart perspective. Anybody that got my mission said, come and join me. Let me mentor you on how to read a forex chart. What would your advice be? Would your advice be to get involved or run?
No, get involved because you said it there to. Because you are the guy that's mentoring everybody. Without a mentor, I wouldn't be here.
Okay. Helen, are you man, can you, buddy.
No, all good. All good, eh?
Yeah, brilliant, thanks. Giving up a little bit of your time this morning to. And affording me the opportunity to get your honest truth about what I do.
I really appreciate no problems, man.
How long have you been trading for in general?
Probably in the last four, five, six years, Alan. But I haven't been, I haven't been trading forex. I've been trading crypto. So what I did is I brought across an understanding of how support and resistance lines work with the, you know, with the charts and the candles and the formations and that sort of stuff. But actually Forex. No. I only started last year in November with your program.
Okay, and how's your experience been so far?
I tell you what, I've just been blown away. It's been absolutely fantastic. When I started, I was doing 7 to 8% return a month with the, the bot. So I was extremely happy. And then I got clever and I started doing some manual trading and then I found myself unhedged when some news came out and my drawdown just went absolutely pear shaped. But other than that, yeah, I'm busy.
Throwing my way back.
Unfortunately, manual intervention. So can't blame the bot for that, right?
No, no, it wasn't the bot at all. It was me. It was my inputs. I've just gone back to basics. I've just, I'm totally following your atma strategy and it's working for me.
Okay.
Sometimes I still allow the emotion to get in and I'll. Like the other day I didn't stay in the trade long enough. I decided to take profits, which is what I did. And then I thought, you know what, let me take that profit. I'll reduce my, my, my cells and. Yeah. And then tomorrow I'll live to fight another day. So it's not a bad. Just stayed in the trade. Yeah, If I'd stayed in the trade longer, obviously I would have made more profit.
You know what.
Sometimes it's better to do that and to say, you know what? I wasn't greedy. Because in hindsight, if it reversed against you and you didn't take the profit, you would have also been Kicking yourself. So you doomed if you do and you doomed if you don't.
Out of all the strategies that you've gone through in the last five or six years, how do you find my strategy to be profit wise and easy to understand and implement wise?
Ellen from implementation wise, it's just so, so much easier than anything that I've seen around there. It's so easy that you sort of wonder to yourself, is it, is it as simple as this? And really I am finding when I implement. So when there's a reversal and I implement your strategy, I am so much calmer and I just know that I've done everything right and I'm expecting.
The reversal to happen and for myself to start chipping away at my, at my drawdown.
You know that just having that mindset will influence your, the positivity of your trade.
Yeah.
I don't know if you've ever watched Dr. Quantum, the video on Dr. Quantum.
No, I haven't.
About quantum physics and how quantum physics works. It's amazing. I'll, I'll send you the video privately, but for anybody who's watching this, go check out the video on Dr. Quantum and Quantum physics. And you actually, with your positive mindset, influence the trade in the direction that you want the trade to go. Even though we're working in a chaotic world and we say that.
You know, that there's other factors that influence the market. You know, there's no one to say that, you know, there's two schools of thought. You've got the guys that say that whatever you think about, you create and you bring about. And then there's other guys that say it's just reactionary. We're just reacting to whatever's going on out there just on a Right. But so have you found the course comprehensive?
Yes, I have, Alan. So what I did is I just really took it step by step from the first video and everything just rolled in sequence. So as I completed one and I completed all the, the steps that had to be done, I just go into the next one. So that's how I set up my EA and I got my FPS all set up. So that was great. And one of the best parts of the whole setup is your learn to read a forex chart. So that gives one a great understanding of candles and your, your strategy, your atma strategy. And so, yeah, without that, I think one would be sort of swimming a little bit.
And how have you found the, the mentorship both from me and from the other traders on the mastermind group on the learn to read a Forex chart group.
Yeah. Alan, without the mentorship from yourself and from the more experienced traders on the telegram group, it would be an uphill battle. Yeah, it is, it is such a pleasure to sit there and have a look at the telegram group and you can see what you advising, not advising, but you are telling people what you are doing at certain times. So that's fantastic for me. And literally, you know, I've got my strategy which is exactly the same as your ATMA strategy and then that just reinforces what I'm doing. Right.
So before my strategy, what strategy were you using? Were you using like a risk 30 pips and closed trades on 15 per profit?
No, I remember I wasn't doing forex trading before your program, were you just.
Dollar cost averaging in crypto.
Yeah, and crypto I would just look at resistance levels and I would look at support levels and I'd, I'd have a look at the moving averages as.
Do you feel supported by me as a mentor?
Absolutely, Alan. Yeah. I mean I have contacted you on two or three occasions just to show you what my big drawdown was. Just, and also just to try and get my emotions under control to see what you're going to say. All I can say is that you're.
Very trade in a team because then you've got that support structure. Find out how everybody else is reading it and if you're all reading it sort of the same way and it gives you like a sense of calm.
Yeah, it's, it's reassurance and it just literally takes that emotion away so that everybody just calms down.
I, I, I think it's not just everybody f following robotically. There's very experienced traders on their telegram group that even when they talk I keep quiet.
Because yeah, don't know how you find that. Are you also finding that.
There'S some. I can see who the experienced traders are there and most of the time they know what they're talking about from what I can see.
So anybody that saw my advert or got a message from me.
What advice would you say to them?
Well, I've already sent four referrals and basically I've said to them that the, the actual course is so easy to follow and to set up and it.
Is, but from a, from a learn to read a Forex chart perspective, anybody that got my mission said come and join me. Let me mentor you on how to read a Forex chart. What would your advice be? Would you advice be to get involved or run?
No, get Involved. Because you said it. There's to. Because you are the guy that's mentoring everybody. Without a mentor, I wouldn't be here.
Yeah, no, I agree with you. This is a very. It's a space that's, it's. It's a minefield. And if you don't have a mentor that holds your hand to navigate you through this minefield, you're just going to blow up.
Exactly. Yeah. These are the other bots out there, other programs out there, and I never, ever signed up. I'd always just show some sort of interest and then, I don't know, something just didn't sit right with me. But when I found you on the net, yeah, it was a different. Different attitude. So that's why I went for it. Yeah.
Okay. So what. What changed? Your. Why me? Why did you decide to go with me? Is it because I'm South African? The same timeline as you, speak the same language, or what convinced you that I'm the dude?
I think it's that mentoring, Ellen, really it. Without that mentoring, I promise you, I wouldn't be here. And I think that for me is key, is the mentoring side of things. Because we amateurs, when you start, I mean, I see new guys starting now with their bots and everything. And that's where I was sort of five months ago.
Yeah.
And I think to myself, you know what? I've come a long way in five months with your help. Also, in five months from now, they're going to be a long way down the road.
Sure. Yeah.
It's.
It's. This is a. This is not a get rich quick scheme. This is get rich for sure. With a system and a strategy and a mentor. Not just a mentor. Competent mentor. That's got results. Do you enjoy the fact that I trade live with you guys and I'll show you exactly what I'm doing? I haven't found another mentor that actually does that.
I love that, Ellen, because I can see exactly where you've placed your trades and then I have a look at my strategy and at the fractals, whatever. And I can see why you're placing your trade there. And then I might have already placed a trade there.
Yeah, yeah.
Sometimes I'm right ahead of you. You haven't posted it yet. And I've already got a trade and I say, ah, okay. Mine's not exactly the same as yours, but it's there. Yeah.
So, Wayne, what do you. What do you do for a living?
I was at saa. I've been a pilot all my life. Unfortunately, I had a retina detachment in 2016. I was medically boarded. So, yeah, I'm not flying anymore.
Yes, that's you. You've lost your license.
Yeah, I've lost my flying medical. So, yeah, this is just up my alley. I love this forex trading because I can do this anytime, anywhere in the world. Just fire up your program and I'm online. Yeah.
Where are you based?
I'm in Hillcrest and.
