Short background.I have traded futures and attended several expensive seminars.Net result, I lost money.Stopped trading for 5 years then got the bug again.Decided on Forex and signed up with a Technical Analysis guru for $1700.Well, I started following his system and within a month I was down about $500.My trading account was going in the wrong direction.
Then I got an email from someone suggesting I read Bird Watching in Lion Country.I do not remember but I think I got to read 1 chapter for free.Anyway, that is all it took.Somehow Dirk grabbed my attention.He talked my language and I knew I needed to buy BWILC.
Ever buy a book you can not put down?That was BWILC for me.What a revelation.He pretty much took issue with everything I thought I knew about trading.But he did not just contradict everything I was doing, he explained the reasoning behind why what I was doing was wrong.But you need an open mind.Dirk will challenge you.If it is your way or the highway, BWILC is not for you.
At this point, I had a decision to make.Was I willing to admit I was going in thewrong direction with my $1700 guru? Did I want to kiss my $1700 goodbye? My dilemma, do I want to keep adding to my already $500 loss in live trading or do I want to backup and do it right? The only problem was, in my gut, I knew Dirk was right. (By the way, if you have not subscribed to his Edu-Letters) you should.
I contacted Dirk and was informed that he was not taking anymore mentoring students at the time.I was very disappointed.I wait a week then contacted him again and asked to be put on a waiting list. Dirk contacted me and agreed to work with me.I was elated.He has since reopened his mentoring program.
At this point I have been in his program a couple months.All I can say is that I am very happy with the program and feel very fortunate that someone took the time to recommend BWILC.Even if you do not agree with Dirk, I think it will be the best money you can spend in your Forex education.I can guarantee you that at least you will look at trading the Forex market differently.
