This is the time of year when many people are going back to school. It’s also the final week of the first 90 day forex trading bootcamp, where we’ve followed the forex market for the past 3 months. This is a great time of year to focus on new goals as there is just enough time to achieve something amazing before the end of the year.
Forex Freedom Live
During the past 90 days I’ve enjoyed sharing an ongoing forex market analysis with over 300 forex traders. Many traders have scored some awesome pips & I’ve gotten a lot of positive feedback. I’ve also developed a better way of teaching…
Once this bootcamp ends next week, there will never be another 90 day forex trading bootcamp…there will be something better: Forex Freedom LIVE!
Over the next 2 weeks I’ll be getting ready to introduce a new forex trading mentorship program. This program has one goal:
Forex Freedom LIVE will show you how to become a professional forex trader so you can work less than 5 hours a week and have enough time & money to do whatever else you want to in life!
It’s actually fairly easy to learn online forex trading. In Forex Sailing, you can learn the BASICS in 75 minutes. I can show you how to use these basics, plus the advanced concepts needed to actually trade in 1-3 months. Turning that skill into your dream lifestyle involves just a few more steps. It’s readily available to you, and I’m going to show you exactly how to do it starting in about 2 weeks!
Freedom is Yours This YEAR!
A few years ago I made a few million dollars. I then went flat broke after a few bad business deals!
I followed the Forex Freedom LIVE process from NOTHING to total financial freedom within 6 months! I’ll be sharing this plan with you in the next 2 weeks.
What You Need to Succeed
I want to keep this as simple as possible. I work less than 1 hour a day & I have EVERYTHING I want! I’ve got plenty of MONEY & plenty of TIME to do anything else. Here’s what you need to succeed on that level as a forex trader:
- Clear-cut trading plan that allows you to clear identify opportunities & place trades without babysitting them
- Money management plan so you manage your risk properly
- Way to manage your personal finances so you draw income from forex trading
- Have something else to do in the other 23 hours a day so you don’t go crazy…
Forex Freedom LIVE will show you how to do this. You’ll be able to see what’s happening in the forex market at any time. I’ll have all opportunities identified for you at all times. You’ll know what I’m watching for, you’ll know every trade I make before, during and after I make it. You’ll know everything as if you were sitting in my living room on Maui with me.
Get Mentally Ready
Forex Freedom LIVE is happening soon. If you’ve been waiting to learn how to trade, there’s never been a better time than right now! I’ll be sharing more about this unique new trading program soon…

I might be the laziest Forex trader in the world. It’s been awhile since I had to work for money, because I’m a forex trader. After working a few weeks at 2 hours a day, I can take a month or two off if I want to. I frequently do so. This is possible because I not only trade forex, but also manage my money properly (read my post “What to do with Money so You Get Rich” for the full plan I follow)
How Can I be such a Lazy Forex Trader?
I simply follow the Forex Sailing trading method, which I teach on the rapidforex.com website. By following this trading method for the past few months, it allowed me to totally goof off in Maui for an entire 2 weeks for my 31st birthday.
Snorkeling off the coast of Maui
The highlight of my spontaneous 2 week vacation was a snorkeling trip to the island of Molokini, off the coast of Maui. We went out on a glass bottom boat to a location with 50 foot deep crystal clear water & swam with tons of tropical fish and sea turtles. After a few hours of snorkeling, we enjoyed a deluxe BBQ on the ship with an open bar. It was tons of fun!
2 Weeks Without Trading Forex
For the past 2 weeks, I didn’t open a single forex chart. I completely took off from trading because I wanted to celebrate my birthday & my brother’s together before he moved to Texas. During this time, we circled Maui several times on our mopeds, went hiking in tropical rain forests, went to nightclubs at night & just had fun!
Living to Trade vs Trading to Live
Although forex trading online is incredibly interesting to learn and can be incredibly lucrative, once you know how to do it, it’s actually kind of boring. I place trades so I don’t have to work at a regular job. I’d much rather be out snorkeling on the reefs of Maui, cruising on my moped, hiking in the bamboo rainforests, or doing whatever I feel like doing.
I actually get to the point where I have “enough” money and lose my motivation to make more. I can do whatever I want, whenever I want because I trade forex. I normally do this with 20-60 minutes of looking at charts daily. 3 days out of 5, I don;t even have an active trade placed.
Having fun in the sun is simply what I like to do. Other people enjoy doing various activities such as golfing, skiing, cycling, travel, spending time with their family, and a million other things.

What Do You Want to Do?
In my early 20’s I was making over $1 MILLION a year. I never took the time to think about what I wanted. I chased money for money’s sake. I ended up working really hard, but never “getting there.” Now I do whatever I want and have more than enough money to do everything I want to do. I can teach you how to trade forex in 75 minutes, but only you can decide “What do You Want from Forex Trading?“

Today marks a special occasion for me. It was 7 years ago today that I officially began teaching forex trading online. There’s some interesting lessons that I’ve learned since then…
My Start With Online Forex Trading
I got involved with online forex trading in 1997 when I got a letter in the mail explaining that for the first time ever it would be possible for average people to trade forex. Before 1997, only banks could do forex transactions. I was previously interested in stocks, so I started applying those ideas to forex.
I played around for a few years. I went to college & majored in math. I learned a lot about forex, but very little was published at the time.
4xtrend.com
On August 11th, 2003 I registered 4xtrend.com. I had already written a manual on how to trade forex a few months earlier simply called “Forex Education Manual.” The eBook was an instant hit. I sold about 100 copies the first month, and ended up selling over 10,000 copies of it before retiring it for more updated forex trading methods.
Back in 2003 there were very few websites teaching Forex. I was one of the original 3-5 sites that had any type of course teaching forex trading. Jared Martinez from MTI was one of the original forex trainers, but this cost around $2,000. Peter Bain from Forexmentor.com had been around for about a year when I got started. I was basically the third forex trainer online. I looked for others, there simply weren’t!
An Ugly Website
I didn’t know anything about web design, so I decided to make the website myself. Although this site got a daily scathing criticism for poor design, it sold HUNDREDS of copies of my forex trading manuals each month. Here’s a screenshot of what the website looked like:

Rapid Forex is Born
4xtrend.com looked like this for 2 years. On October 13th, 2005 I changed from 4xtrend.com to rapidforex.com. Since then, Rapid Forex has taught HUNDREDS Of THOUSANDS of people how to trade forex online. The Rapid Forex Supreme Trader Package sold THOUSANDS of trading packages for $597 each.
Online Forex Trading Legacy
Today there are THOUSANDS of online forex trading websites. You can easily get lost with all of them. I got into this industry at a great time. I’m proud of being one of the pioneers of online currency trading. Although it’s only been 7 years, it’s practically the entire history of forex trading online. It’s kind of like dog years, I’m a grandfather for online forex trading.
New Enthusiasm
I’m enjoying forex trading now more than ever. There was a time when I was burnt out from it due to bad business partnerships & naive attempts at managing a multi million dollar business. I’ve learned lot about trading in the past 7 years & I’ve got more wisdom to share now than ever before.
Many readers of this blog can remember 4xtrend.com. If you’re one of them, I thank you for hanging around since those days. If you’re new to this website, I look forward to sharing an even better next 7 years with you!
My new mission is for you to be able to Live the Fantasy Life of a Forex Trader, like I am now. Forex trading has changed my life forever. It brings me great joy to share it with you on this website
