Ryan has some good points
Nial, As a business, you have to face customer review harsh or good and contemplate on your services. You have offered clarification. Fair enough!
As a person, I have every right to keep my identity private.
My last post was not about trading as u tried to defend yourself saying how good your business is doing rather than answering to the point.
I think I have told enough for anyone to make a decision and surely they were not emotional outlets but review from a guy who knows his stuff. I know what I am talking about also I have said for whom your course might be suitable.
Thanks
i honestly think Ryan has some good points here. He seems quite knowledgeable about this course, knows several of the members on there and he is not promoting anything else so I fail to see where he has some hidden agenda. he's just disappointed the course was not satisfactory and is providing his. i thank him for providing an informed and honest opinion and he has defnded his position well
people are entitled to their opinions and you cannot tell them that their opinion is a lie or heresay when its well informed. i stumbled onto this forum as i have a facsination with price action and have been looking for some good outlets. ive found james 16 to be solid and forexbunker but was also curious about Nial's and wanted to check this out as there seemed to be a lot of commentary about it here.
i am also not a noob so it was good to hear from what Ryan said that this course would be for noob's and thus not for me.
seems like basic stuff talking about supp + res and inside bars. have also heard on other forums about how you can learn all you need to about his course from his free videos and this has been confirmed across multiple forums so seems quite consistent
many of the things you say in here Ryan have been confirmed by other past members on other forums so it seems like your experience is an honest and legit critique.
nial is entitled to do all the social media work to help promote his business - any good businessperson would do this. however, i did spend some time and found that link about him using a false account posing as someone from UAE yet having an ip address from australia. thats pretty damming evidence nial is more than just a businessman, but someone who wangles the truth to promote his services - seems pretty shady
you mention a solid point about showing he is genuine as this is always a concern for us developing traders. however, i am not sure a signal service is the best way because that could expose his methods over time to anyone who can reverse engineer it. i have a friend which did this and now he is trading well just from seeing a successful traders report
however anothr method would be to get an 'audit' which is where a professional auditing firm audits his past trading to verify yearly performance, max dd's, sharpe ratios and assets under management.
Nial could do this to prove to us he is the real deal without exposing any information about his strategies as it would simply tell us he is managing a good amount of capital and can perform over time.
If Nial is really trading live and performs well, then it will show in the audit and in the data. This avoids him exposing his methods, past trade history and using signal services which I do not think help us learn to trade since we have no idea the base of the signals come from. Ideal would be for him to use a professional and well known auditing firm like Ernst & Young or Pricewaterhouse Cooper.
It protects of his methods, doesn't help any other business or agenda like C2, Zulu or Currensee which take spreads from those who trade on them, and it allows him to establish he is legit.
i think this is an perfectly good way to establish if he is who is he and is a no-risk situation for him (unless he has something to hide). my guess is if he really is legit, he will just do it quickly and squash the doubt once and for all. but if he doesn't and comes up with some excuse, then i think that will tell you who he really is
nIal? can you get us an audit from a professional accounting or auditing firm or will you post some excuse to avoid showing us what is real and what is not?
