I've been trading off and on for 25 years, with no profits. Yes, I have wrote statements on paper to myself, promising to give 10 and even 20% to charitable endeavors. No help.

I have tried commodities, stocks, indexes, and everything inbetween.

This is my first Forex venture. I'm thinking of using the 'Logical Forex' indicator program. Anyone using this?

I will still give 20%, if I can realize a profit.

Simply promising money to the universal doesnt seem to work that well. I've tried this many times. But actually giving, of whatever one has, be it money, time, or effort does seem to have an impact. Not that it actually makes our trading better, but it does put us in a psychological, karmic position to recieve. Again, of whatever is being offered, or attracted, not necessarily money or trading excellence.

While giving is beneficial and supportive, and no doubt plays a big part in our own psychology and acceptence of wealth and success. It does not seem to be a true prerequisite for success, more like a by product, in that people generally are willing to give what they have enough of. Rather, the prerequisite for success in this or any business seems to be more in line with positioning, being in the right place at the right time, and self control, patience and not over leveraging. So far this seems to trump all the hard work, and law of attraction mumbo.

I dont know anything about the "Logical Forex" system. My own feelings on this subject are that all these little systems have something to offer, even if its just a kick in the head, or simply confirmation of what we already know. Ocaisionaly, they offer a new way of looking at something, or a new useful tool. But none are truely complete untill we can integrate them and make them our own. Whether its reading the trading clasics, or buying these $97 trading systems, its still a proccess of elimination, and the search for an understanding and our place in this game.

I am new to forex and to this forum .What a pleasant surprise to read your post and realize I am amongst such nice people.Thank you.My faith in humanity nearly restored. I dont make much money,but I find I am able to give automatic payments each month to NRDC,and to Farm Sanctuary both worthy causes for animal rights.If I can make a little extra money trading forex ,I would like to give more.!

I would like to donate to your effort if I'm allowed.Sounds like a worthy cause.

There are a lot of worthy causes listed in this thread. Pick one (or more) and start supporting.

For the most recent large scale disaster, I decided to go with:

Clinton Bush Haiti Fund**|**Home

I picked them over some others I considered for several reasons. First, since this one is focused on one cause, there's not a lot of built in bureaucratic overhead. Second, I'd have to say that anything being run by 2 ex-Presidents of the US would go to great efforts to avoid getting caught up in any scandals over misuse of funds. Also, they take paypal. The problem I've found with a lot of causes that take credit cards is that they require a phone number. Once they have your phone number, what I plan as a one-time donation can turn into a lot of calls that can get pretty aggressive in trying to turn me into a regular contributor.

Donations can be done in many forms.

My system of donations?

See/meet a person whom you know is struggling to make ends meet and with many mouths to feed? Just go and shake that person’s hand and leave whatever you can spare in that person’s hand.

See an elderly person at some small eatery checking out for low prices on the menu? Signal to the waiter/waitress that you will pay for that person’s meal. Or if that elderly person has already ordered and is eating his/her meal, just pay for that meal and walk away.

See the young child of some small time petty traders helping out at his/her parent(s) store/eatery? Pay your purchase with a bigger note and don’t take the change.

I have even took in complete foreign strangers whom I met at airports.House & fed them, show them my hospitality, and sent them off to their new destinations. From their “thank you” letters, I can read that it renewed their fate in humanity.

These are just some very basic ways, and my own way, of helping out. No one needs to know, and I don’t need anyone to know.

Why do I do what I do? Well, I too have received many “helping hands” from complete strangers, and from unexpected quarters, in my time. It’s my way of “paying my debts” for the kindness and help that I have received.
