A little bit about me, my journey, and my dream

I got interested in trading forex back in college 2009. I actually signed up with Stellar Forex Consulting group who hooked me up with education at a price of course. I actually opened up my own llc trading forex that summer, but got just 4-5 trades into it risking about 3% per trade and got scared seeing a 15% drawdown and I closed out the trades. I was going through a hard time and I could not handle the most important part of forex trading: the mental aspect. So I shut down the business and gave up. Haru Miyagi was my first mentor for forex, and I am appreciative of all he taught me.

So that was my first experience with forex, and then I took about 2.5 years off (I think) because I had no money to invest and needed to graduate.

Fast forward to the beginning of 2012. I opened an account and caught a few small trades on a EURUSD trend that was an obvious trade to take. I ended up closing that account with about 15% profit, but it was all luck. I closed the account so that I could buy a house and make that big investment first.

Moving on to 2013, I got enough money together to open a small account. I spent a full month trading a technical style on the 5 min chart during the london session. Well, I was basically at break even the whole time. Then I found news trading and forexoma brokerage.

Forexoma brokerage had 5 star reviews from over 100 people on forexpeacearmy.com, so I thought they were legit. I signed up for an account and earned well over 200% in just 6 weeks doing news trading.
I then attempted to withdraw some of that money and they realized that I had made thousands using their fake dealing desk model. They disappeared without a word. A lot of other people got burned with me by forexoma. I was able to recover 65% of the initial investment because I had used paypal. Some of the others were also able to recovery some of their investment.

So, as you can imagine, I was totally crushed by this scam. I was on my way to making $1 million in just over a year. So of course, I decided to take a break and focus on cutting down on credit card debt.

Now in 2014, I have started trading again with moderate success. Now I invite you to join me on this journey to see me fail again or succeed.

My DREAM:

I want to become a fund manager and make millions for clients. I know that money makes the world go around, so I would donate large amounts to charities because I have seen so many people in need. I want to help as many people as I can. I'm a nurse, so I already have helped a thousand people or so, but I want to help thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people.
I figured out that the best way for me to be able to do this is through forex. I have a passion for numbers and charts and even wanted to be an accountant before I became a nurse. So, I want to make millions doing what I love and spend the money doing what gives me meaning in life: helping others. I do think that I have an affinity for money, numbers and trading, although my trade record does not show it.

I have about 18 months to build a successful trading record on an account that I will audit to show investors that I mean business and that I am to be taken seriously as a new fund manager.

Again, I invite you to join me and watch me learn and grow, cry and scream, and go through more growing pains. Hopefully you will find something that helps you as well.

To our success!
