So you trade the "London open" and the "NY open" then do you?What do you do for the other eight and a half hours the markets are open for then? This guy is just another fraud,he's no fund manager and doesn't know what he's talking about,"your broker will take away your leverage since your [sic] using up so much of the firms [sic] capital" is just utter nonsense.With modern STP and ECN brokers the orders are sent straight to the liquidity providers,the broker's "capital" has nothing whatsoever to do with the transaction,they just pass the order on,nothing more He's thrown in the SNB floor being removed to try to look knowledgeable but most of what he says is just complete BS! Considering he claims to have been a trader for conman Reza it really comes as no surprise though.
Don't be too quick brother. From his instagram: "Always be yourself and never care what others do, do you and be focused on your own path. I have recently decided to make a massive decision in my life, something that I feel was inevitable, I've had many questions for myself the past 6 years and I believe I finally have the answer. This week I will be making a major announcement, not sure how people will react to it but I know it's what I want. Keep your eyes and ears peeled. Bless up!"
I wouldn't worry about it too much Rob. I've met a few real gangsters (distant relatives and family of family, etc...) and the little that I know of them is this: They don't say much at all. They certainly don't make threats. If they ever act, you will never see it coming. Guys like this are all talk. I'm sure if you were to show up at his door he would poop his pants. And even if he did have friends that were real gangsters, they wouldn't get involved over an internet forum dispute. No way.
His press release from capital trust markets vanished within last 3 days. Probably removed it for whatever reason. link was: Forex Trading, Start Forex Trading Online with FOREXMINUTE Found in google cache from 30 april: NZ Based Capital Trust Markets Looking To Acquire Insolvent Brokers By Forexminute - Usman Ahmed | Press Releases | Jan 17, 2015 6:11AM BST Capital Trust Markets would like to inform all of its clients and the investing public that it has not been materially affected in any way by the unprecedented turmoil that resulted from the Swiss National Banks decision to remove the 1.20 floor on the EURCHF on Thursday, January 15, 2015. Capital Trust Markets is heavily backed financially and has industry-leading risk management practices. As part of our commitment to providing exceptional services, all client funds are held in segregated accounts and placed in Tier 1 global banks with a minimum credit rating of A+. Our team is currently looking to acquire insolvent Forex brokerages that were hit hard by the unexpected removal of the 1.20 floor on the EURCHF by the Swiss National Bank on Thursday, January 15, 2015, says Reza Mokhtarian, President & CEO of Capital Trust Markets (CTM Group Ltd.). The unprecedented collapse of the foreign exchange markets pushed the Forex industry to the brink of collapse, as most big name brokers suffered catastrophic losses. Two leading brokers UK-based Alpari and New Zealands Excel Markets declaring bankruptcy. Another New Zealand brokerage, Global Brokers NZ, also called it quits after reporting unfathomable losses. UK-based IG Group and Switzerlands Swissquote were also among the casualties, with each reporting tens of millions of dollars in losses. US broker FXCM was on the brink of insolvency before receiving a $300 million bailout from Leucadia. Canadian broker OANDA also suffered huge losses and was quick to release a statement explaining its vanishing liquidity. Many other brokers canceled withdrawals and forced traders to close open positions as liquidity quickly dried up, leaving investors devastated. When the dust settles, many more of the worlds biggest Forex brokers are expected to fall like dominos, highlighting the lack of preparation of most major firms. In lieu of these dramatic events, Capital Trust Markets is putting out an open invitation to any cash-strapped Forex broker looking to consolidate, adds Mokhtarian. We are focused on acquiring other brokerages and client lists that were affected by these unforeseen events. Founded in 2013, the New Zealand-based brokerage has swiftly climbed the ranks to become one of the worlds fastest growing Forex brokers. The company, which is backed by large global investors, has spent the better part of two years building its risk management infrastructure and proprietary online trading services, while forging extensive partnerships with interbank liquidity providers. Unlike other brokers, CTM has developed its own risk management algorithms, online trading applications and liquidity management tools. This has helped CTM offer the best trading infrastructure in the Forex industry and mitigate against unforeseen shocks to the system, like the events of January 15, 2015. Due to record volumes, Thursday was an extremely profitable day for us and our clients, Mokhtarian added. Not a single client was adversely affected by price stoppage, re-quotes or trading pauses. We have deep interbank liquidity and currency reserves with several financial institutions around the world, so the unusually high levels of volume we experienced on Thursday had no discernible impact on our operating capacity. Our trading volumes have increased exponentially over the last six months and we expect to scale up accordingly to meet the demand of hundreds of new clients each month. When asked about CTMs acquisition plans, Mokhtarian said, We are well positioned to acquire and replace distressed firms. We are looking to finalize a series of acquisitions by the end of the quarter.
Reza was nice enough to call the Southlake Police for my safety. They were nice and reviewing all of this. I let them know the only one that had threatened me so far was Reza himself and I had no concerns.
Really? What did he call the cops for? Apparently he either doesn't have a lawyer or the lawyers he has are equivalent in savviness to his trading skillz. (<-----So his followers understand)
Must be the old trick of calling the police first when you're in the wrong. I bet they'll vote for Spring. They love it!
I'm sure they're laughing their asses off like the rest of us. Send them a big tub of popcorn. Thread deletion supporters holding firm at 20. That's an impressive rate of return from the millions of minions.
I'd be more impressed if he showed me how many of his clients have achieved the lifestyle instead of himself. If you're gonna do this, having stuff is perfectly fine, but until then and until you have brought others along you are a flash in the pan at best. Then again that borders on the sales pitches for the standard pyramid scheme... It's the Kardashian Sydrome writ large. Selfies = success We've been circling the drain for a while but this view of achievement pretty much turns on the disposal...
we know who voted for who, no surprise mostly the new hit & run users, out of 2 million I would have expected at least a few thousand would have voted though, not 20.
We'll all end in one of those places in the long run. I think in the short he may be visiting the former.
yes, Reza called them because he was concerned about my safety. I'm not worried about my safety, but keeping in touch and sharing more information with them. My guess is motivation for calling mostly trying to put more pressure on me to remove the content and a little bit trying to clean his hands after pushing his "followers" against me personally. He wanted them to do his dirty work and got them started, but then now of course wants to disassociate. Here is part of email Reza sent me few days ago. I have cousins who live close to you actually.
