futures io is the largest futures trading community on the planet, with over 90,000 members. At futures io, our goal has always been and always will be to create a friendly, positive, forward-thinking community where members can openly share and discuss everything the world of trading has to offer. The community is one of the friendliest you will find on any subject, with members going out of their way to help others. Some of the primary differences between futures io and other trading sites revolve around the standards of our community. Those standards include a code of conduct for our members, as well as extremely high standards that govern which partners we do business with, and which products or services we recommend to our members.
At futures io, our focus is on quality education. No hype, gimmicks, or secret sauce. The truth is: trading is hard. To succeed, you need to surround yourself with the right support system, educational content, and trading mentors all of which you can find on futures io, utilizing our social trading environment.
With futures io, you can find honest trading reviews on brokers, trading rooms, indicator packages, trading strategies, and much more. Our trading review process is highly moderated to ensure that only genuine users are allowed, so you dont need to worry about fake reviews.
We are fundamentally different than most other trading sites:
We are here to help. Just let us know what you need.
We work extremely hard to keep things positive in our community.
We do not tolerate rude behavior, trolling, or vendors advertising in posts.
We firmly believe in and encourage sharing. The holy grail is within you, we can help you find it.
We expect our members to participate and become a part of the community. Help yourself by helping others.
You'll need to register in order to view the content of the threads and start contributing to our community. It's free and simple.
Not possible, sorry. Just look to the far right column when using "New Posts", it shows the forum so you can skip the ones that you don't want to read.
BTW, the best thing experienced traders can do here on futures.io (formerly BMT) is to help less experienced traders. Many of which are drawn in to the "get rich quick" style of trading through purchasing indicator systems or purchasing automated trading solutions. So I hope you will not skip the thread, but instead choose to help your fellow members and continue to educate them.

Reason: "get rich", not "get rick" ;)

The other thing that always makes me cringe is when someone claims..."works on any market, any instrument, any timeframe, any chart......"
Okay, let's be real here. If you developed a "system" that could be used on ANY chart, with any instrument, on any time frame, and it made considerable profit with dreamy drawdown.....why on Earth would you sell it.
What you're basically saying is...the system has no saturation.
You'd be like the borg. Once you took over one instrument to the point of saturation, you'd simply move to the next one. There'd be no limit to how much money you could make.

I am talking in general terms - I have not looked at this site or the product.
When I say get rich quick, I mean your latest "discovery" of this solution. As in --- if you found this system 2 years ago, you would be rich right?
Any system advertised in this way, to me spells out "get rich quick". If the system were advertised in a way that said you had to closely monitor it, and constantly adapt it to the current market, it is one thing - but any system advertised as just turn it on and it makes money, to me that is "get rich quick".

I was honestly looking to buy this product, but in doing so I always look for reviews and such of the product. Which lead me to this forum.
In short, I have no experience in trading futures, or forex, I know nothing. I figured maybe one of you can point me in the direction of a product that is worth the investment and time.
There is no "product" that is going to make you money trading. The sooner you realize this, the better.
There are no short cuts. There are no holy grails.
If you want to become a neurosurgeon, earning hundreds of thousands per year, you have to attend many, many years of medical school, you need degrees, licenses, and a huge amount of hands-on experience.
The same is true of almost any professional career. Trading is no different.
The best resource for information is to read the posts and threads on the site, and start participating on the forum. In a few years, you'll begin to make sense of it all, and you'll have a chance to earn some money if you have worked very, very hard.

Tony,
this guy a makes sensible point - What happens if JAM is affected by any of these events tomorrow, you can continue working with the indicator/strategy but there would be any further enhancements to it?
How many people are in the group?
Thanks
You have never been in the room and I have never stated "get rich quick" nor have I ever stated "just turn it on and make money" I would appreciate it if you would come in and learn what we really do so you will be properly informed. In fact we teach that trading is very hard and hold nothing back during our "free trials" I would expect these comments from the uninformed but not from the "owner and supposedly "unbiased"
Please retract your statements as they are not true!
BTW, we do teach traders safety and focus on no blown out accounts!
