We Hit Our Goal, FMM Lives On!

A few weeks ago I wrote about how ForexFactory designated me a commercial member, essentially banning me from posting on the forums. I came close to shutting down the blog completely, but that didn’t feel right and I asked you, the community, what your thoughts were.

After that first post on August 17th, I immediately start pouring my efforts into our Patreon group in lieu of ForexFactory. And we’ve since bagged 375 pips since that fateful day:

Our goal has been to hit $1,000 in Patreon pledges to keep FMM alive and running. I’m excited to announce that we hit that milestone today:

Our next goal is to hit $2,000 in support. When that happens, I’ll remove all the display ads from FMM because really… who enjoys those? Yes, they’re relatively lucrative, especially since most of the ads are targeted at Forex trading, a relatively high cost-per-click demographic. But for me it’s not about the money, but improving the community and the experience for everyone.

Thank you to those who have joined our humble group. I’m excited to see it continue to grow and prosper!

I've been involved in the forex markets for over a decade, initially starting as an FX trader at Allston Trading in Chicago. Eventually I went on and founded my own (non trading related) company. I spend my days working from home and trading forex, equity, and crypto markets.
