Angela Dart earned 7.4% Return On Investment in July…. What have you earned so far for August? Entries Open of August Trader of the Month on the 1st of September.
Hi, my name is Angela Dart and I am married and have two gorgeous children.
I have been a member of LTG GoldRock since October 2009. I have had my ups and downs with trading while learning and now since I have settled down and started working to a plan I have been making consistent profits each month.
I am currently only using one trade which works in with my lifestyle. Now I am very confident with that trade I have included in my plan this month to start learning another trade, which I am very excited about.
Best Wishes,

Marion won 3rd place last month with a fantastic Return of 21.8% on her Trading Account in July.
I started trading in Nov 2009 and have been taking my own trades in the last couple of months and sticking to my trading plan. I have had two successful months out of three.
I have taken advice from all the moderators and come up with a trade that suits me. I like trades that have a bit of momentum, as I prefer not to be in them for hours on end.
I would like to say that the moderators are all fantastic and I have learnt so much from all of them. My only regret is I don’t get to listen to Lorrie much as she comes on at the wrong time for me, but always thoroughly enjoy it when I do wake up in the middle of the night or early morning and tune in to her. She really is a fountain of knowledge.
I am really enjoying being a member of LTG GoldRock as it has so much to offer.
So a big big thanks to all of you and keep up the good work.
Regards,
Marion Gallow, Northern Territory Australia

GoldRock Testimonials
David Papp our 2nd Place winner of Trader of the Month for July increased his Trading Account by 41% Return On Investment by taking a more ‘relaxed’ approach to his trading…
“I’ve been trading forex casually since LTG GoldRock was launched. The best advice I received, and it’s the most difficult for me to follow, is that trading has to be boring.
I do my best when I don’t really care about the money I trade, and when I don’t mind staying out of the market. When I started trading I was very determined to make money and took way too many trades, most of them losers.
These days I check the charts once or twice a day and if I don’t see anything I like, I stay out of the market and give myself a pat on the back for having the self control NOT to click that button.”
– David Papp, Victoria Australia

LTG GoldRock
Juan won the 'Best Risked' Trader for July
I joined LTG GoldRock at the end of August 2009 and started trading live as soon as I had setup and funded my account.
I have attended many trading seminars and courses and traded shares, CFDs and Futures on and off over the past 15 years and I felt that I had enough experience to handle trading larger volumes in FX, so I started trading $10 PIPs. I had mixed results, but eventually I started having larger losses and after only 3 months, I managed to blow almost half of my account!
I realised that I had to change something or pretty soon I would have nothing left in my trading account. I went back to basics and started using a rough calculation of between 0.5% and 1% risk of my account for each trade. This had an immediate positive effect on my trading and I started having more successful trades and reducing the size of my losses.
Soon after this, LTG supplied us with a copy of the Risk Calculator, which I started to use for every trade I placed.
By March 2010 I had stemmed the losses and April 2010 was my first profitable month. Every month since then has been profitable and I have recovered almost all my losses.
In the early stages, I was taking almost all trades called by Dom, Marina & the Chief, but soon started to develop an affinity for a couple of the trade setups and became more selective with my trades. » Continue Reading »

Life of a Trader
Gerard increased his account in June by 47.56% ROI.
Hi, my name is Gerard DeJager and I’ve been a member of LTG Goldrock since June 2009.
I have my own business and work as a Sourcing / Procurement consultant on projects in Australia and Asia. I have been living with my wife and 2 young kids in Melbourne since 2006 after having lived in The Netherlands, Malaysia, China and South-Korea and definitely don’t want to move anywhere else……. Australia is the place to be !!!!
I have gone through the learning curve of trading, lost and won loads of money by taking too much risk and finally after a year I think I am getting the hang of it and trade beyond the calls made in the room.
Thanks to LTG GoldRock I have learned to settle for a disciplined and responsible way of trading that will pay off in the end but not as quick as I thought a year ago. There is no wonder recipe that makes you wealthy overnight. I am spending maybe 20 hours a week trading, mainly mobile trading and my target is 1% ROI per day. My favorite trades are the range and trend trades, but I love to scalp at least 3-4 times a day on the EUR/USD. If I can achieve that consistently I will stop working in 2011.

Daniel Fitzgerald made 7.74% ROI last month and will no doubt keep growing his Nett Profit.
Dr Daniel Fitzgerald is a 28 year old Aerospace Engineer, graduating from the Queensland University of Technology in 2002.
He followed for the next 3.5 year completing a PhD in the autonomous aerial vehicle area, with particular focus on artificial intelligence and automated algorithms. He has worked with the CSIRO and some other private companies in this area. He is currently in a project manager role in Brisbane with a research centre.
He has a huge passion for the stockmarket, being introduced to it several years ago. Since then he has focussed on learning as much as possible about the markets. Initially focussing on eminis, he has in the past 9 months moved focus onto the forex market. Having programmed computers since an early age, and being highly motivated and excited in working out patterns in the market, Daniel spends a lot of time backtesting his strategies on historical data.
“My basic approach is to develop a strategy on different timeframes, allow sufficient enough data to ensure that the results are statistically significant, so as to hopefully produce a strategy that has a positive expectancy when traded live in the market.” » Continue Reading »

Karina with her two daughters
Karina Banhuk came 5th last month in our Trader of the Month competition with a total net Return On Investment of 30.08%.
I’m a single mum of three working only a few hours a week (paid work that is) and alot of my free time (when I get it) is spent backtesting trading plans.
The best advice I can give is to only trade plans you’ve backtested and proved to yourself that they work and to make sure you take every trade on that plan in order for the probabilities to play out. If you’ve tested them yourself and had a few stops it will give you the confidence to take that next trade.
Well it’s that time of month again that we have some new winners for the Trader of the Month and there are definitely some interesting stories to share.
