I came to the Dr Forex mentoring progamme as a last resort. Worn out, frustrated, cynical and finding it difficult to trust anyone from the world of forex trading; a world that seemed to me to stand many of the basic protocols of human behaviour on their head. I had paid, I had spent time being trained by the (so called) best, I had subscribed to newsletters, online chat rooms and signal services. I was ready to quit (and spit) and go back to a world I new better.
To this day I don't know how it happened but shortly before leaving for the airport to go and watch my son play rugby in South Africa I decided to purchase and download BWILC....it was July 2006. I read it on the plane, I read it in Port Elizabeth, I read it in Kynsna, my wife tried to hide it from me in Cape Town! Finally in Stellenbosch looking at the most beautiful rugby pitch in the world, I spoke to Dirk on my mobile phone and subsequently I enrolled on the mentoring programme.
I have ever since been looking for the superlative that describes the experience but still haven't found it! 'Awesome' seems pathetically inadequate...'outstanding' falls even shorter; In the spirit of ironic understatement I briefly considered 'incredible' but to no avail.
You see in all this there is an inescapable truth and that is that Dirk knows what he is talking about and for a pitifully small amount of money he turned me from a reckless gambler working off a 15 minute chart with 400:1 leverage and a 25 pip stop waiting for 17 oscillating indicating moving averages to cross at the same time into a rational trader with an understanding of the fundamental basics of trading and the knowledge to apply logical strategies in a coherent and profitable manner.
It's now October 2007 and I still can't think of that word...but to anyone reading this and contemplating whether it might be worth it or not...I will tell you this .....if you want to succeed trading forex then you really have no choice. It is as simple as that.
