I have over 20 years experience in the forex industry, not only as a private trader, but also having worked in the City of London as an investment analyst specialising in modelling the interrelationships between global currencies, and later as a fund manager trading both futures and spot forex. I was also joint Managing Director of what is now one of London's leading spread betting brokers.
|
Using my extensive knowledge and expertise as an analyst and fund manager I have developed sophisticated systems for trading the global currency markets. I now trade full time for my living managing both my own accounts and those of a very small number of personal clients. I use a combination of short, intermediate and long term strategies across a fairly wide range of currencies. My systems are proprietary automated algorithmic models although I do very occasionally intervene in exceptional market circumstances.
|
Exclusively for ForexSignalSafe I will trade a combination of my portfolio strategies which are traded in my own accounts in line with my overriding objective of producing exceptional returns over the course of 12 months, but with a smoother equity curve
|
This approach trades a basket of major currencies with proprietary strategies which seek to produce the maximum returns during periods of high market volatility. This is a portfolio approach which builds into a net position and it is important to allow all trades even though at times there may be several positions (both long and short) open in a currency at the same time. Accordingly this is not suitable for NFA-regulated broker accounts. The elements of the system which seek to determine direction for the initial entry are supported by a multi-layered neural network with the neural net undergoing re-training at the end of each week, when it analyses all losing orders and inaccurate enters/exits from the previous week. It then trains based on this new additional information.
|
All trades incorporate the strictest professional money management, however the risk control utilised is not always evident at the broker end in order to overcome spread manipulation and stop running. Note that false stops and take profit targets are frequently used, or sometimes none at all are displayed,
|
Initial position sizes are relatively small, taking into account that it is not uncommon to scale into a full position, so clients are advised not to exceed the multiples used in my master account. Assuming that a micro account is being traded (smallest lot size 0.01) within available leverage at 200:1 then a minimum account size of $2000 is recommended and this amount should be dedicated (i.e. not also used for trading other systems or signals). This is because there may be a considerable number of open positions held at times and it is necessary to ensure adequate margin cover.
|
To ensure that there is the best possibility of ForexSignalSafe clients obtaining as good or better order fills than I do I am deliberately trading the master signal account at a broker with spreads higher than those of the recommended brokers
|
Although this is a relatively conservative method of trading, it is important to understand and accept that negative fluctuations in account value are inevitable and that there WILL be losing periods. Expect to see to see occasional drawdowns and remember that this is not a sprint, but a marathon.

Dare to dream............... and make each day an epic adventure.
