Woodies CCI Club and what happen to Gio and JeanYus



Woodies CCI Club has had it host of problems over the years, everything from promoting a fellow who claimed to have made hundred thousands only to be found that it was all a lie. Pretending have 800 members in the hotcomm chat room only to find out that there were a large percentage of fake (puppets) users. Taking in cash at the door for trade-a-longs and then not showing that it actually went to Make-a-Wish.

The Woodies CCI Club is a feeder for a brokerage house in Chicago, nothing more and nothing less....so before you lean into it, check it out, ask questions in their chatroom and decide for yourself, and certainly before you risk a dime....but be warned, if you do ask a question and Ken doesn't want to answer it, well you will be banned.....

Well, kids guess what happened again? YEP, someone and I know "they" wish "they" knew who came into the free and open chat room today.....you know, just TRADERS HELPING TRADERS, well unless it doesn't fit into their idea of Traders helping Traders.....but they posted about JeanYus and left.

AT 11:15:30am, the kindergarden teacher came out with her big old stick and used the DAMN IF I HAVE TO USE THIS AGAIN......TEXT-B-GONE tab. Now, sunny_D from Texas will never know exactly what "gb" said about options. Well, I guess since there are a few spaces few in Vegas, he could go and ask there....

Talk about an ego......if this chat room was really about TRADERS HELPING TRADERS....well I guess TradersHaven and TradersElements both on relay 7 in hotcomm.com would not be there in the first place.

If this chat room was really about TRADERS HELPING TRADERS....well we wouldn't have to use any certain data providers in order to have all the ever changing list of ways to use just this one indicator.

If this chat room was really about TRADERS HELPING TRADERS....well there wouldn't be a problem showing where the TAL money went and how much went to the kids at Make-a-Wish now would there.

But, poor "Slash" we took a ZLR in the Euro and got hammered.....but was able to reverse.....no mention of which of the 23 setups he used ....to get his money back but the comment...."a very rare happening" is great.....Does that mean, he very rarely does a reversal or very rarely gets his money back.......Don't worry there will be better trades down the road......someone once said.

GREAT TRADING EVERYONE....

Dennis,

I used to be one of your biggest critics. I apologize and now understand what's really going on with WoodiesCCI and MAW (Much About Woodie)

You were right and I was wrong.

Best to you.

To funny.

Love the audio Dennis.

I see there is quite the lineup for the Vegas gig. And all proceeds will be donated to MAW, after expenses are paid for Tony to fly from the UK and how many other airfares and of course the Woodmeister himself.

Oh yes, we do this all for free.

Gimme a break

Your blog has been very helpful and informative. I was a very impulsive trader and focusing on the CCI rather than price bars helped me turn the corner in my trading. Occasionally I listened in on WCCI and can honestly say I never took a trade they called. It was always like 10 minutes later the mod would say "those of you in the famir trade are looking good, great trading everybody..." It's troubling that the website is so commercialized now. Best wishes to you and again thank you for the blog helpful, entertaining and comercial free.

Hmm...I honestly don't think any of you actually listen to WCCI.

Otherwise you would know, no calls are ever posted.

That advertisements for personal financial gain are prohibited in the room by the disclaimers.

That we are all ordinary people from all walks of life. Not one guru in the bunch.

And "Negative Attitudes" in any way shape or form are also prohibited.

Too bad you have never been in WCCI....you might have actually liked it....LOL.

Cathy so now you're saying you don't post trades? On October 24 you said...

Hmm....

Women "kiss ass"? In a guy that is called a "team player" LOL.

Don't post real trades?...well I guess you are not up early enough to see me trading Euro. Remember "the early bird gets the worm"

Dimwit? I just let you think that. Makes it easier for me to take your money.

Fat? Well you have to be right on ONE thing! LOL.

Dang you gave me a good laugh this morning. I need it for sure with this hurricane. No charts working to keep me busy.

Just some thoughts I had today...

Has anyone else noticed that...

woodie's room went from over 700 a year ago to less than half that now?

that gio's room, just 4 weeks old, already has grown to over 150 and keeps growing?

that people are coming into gio's room on a daily basis saying "I was wondering where you guys went to" - most likely after the text was just erased in woodie's room just for asking the "Forbiddin Question"

that you never, ever, never, hear about anyone who felt compelled to go back to woodie's room after leaving? It's a one way street out of woodie's and not one person has mentioned regretting having left woodie's (including me - of course)

that once out of woodie's, you feel sorry for all those still there and just hope upon hope that they will see the light (hint - it's not a halo over woodie's head)

that there is some embarassment to admitting that you were ever a devoted member of woodie's room?

that some of woodie's staunchest supporters are now some of his greatest critics (another hint - those are the people who knew him best - I suppose sport falls in this category, but there are many others)

that the only real defense of woodie is that which Cathy does? 'nuff said on that one - lol

that you have a sick feeling in your stomach about the thought of the funds that should have made it to the kids of MAW more than likely went to pay for woodie's backyard renovation and tonyuk's bartab?

I have a lot more thoughts, but not a lot more time to post them here. I think most of you have the same thoughts already anyway.

I am not a spokesperson for Woodie....far from it....I was told by many it would be better to ignore all the barbs. I feel like Don Quixote tilting at windmills a lot of the time.

I have respect for everyone and their thoughts. I honestly do. I respect your right to look at something and move on. I respect Dennis's right to publish his thoughts as he respects my desire to "correct" them.

Often times when we imbue someone with "guru" status we hold them to far higher standards than our own. And this is the common thread that runs through the posts I see.

There is a certain joy in showing others what you see. This is called teaching. I enjoy doing it as do many others do including Woodie.

I give it freely as a professor at a college would....sure, they get paid a salary. Everyone has to live. And I get as much in return as I give.

I had so much fun at my first TAL meeting all the people that I talk to on a daily basis and sharing ideas with them. Face to face interaction is important when you share a virtual world.

I can hear the snickering. "Oh that Cathy is a deluded fool"...."she is so stupid she can't see what she is involved in"....

Well, I can see what is important. Even if I can't do math.

What I find to be just an incredible act of insecurity and paranoia is that the PS and PM are turned off in WCCI.

This is such an overt act of protectionism and censorship that goes right along with the text be gone usage in controlling the flow of unwanted information in the land of wood.

Oh he will tell you that it is because the moderators get to many pm and ps and to prevent solicitations. Bullshit! It is so no one can PM anyone and tell you where Jean Yus, Gio, Dennis, drbob and who else have really gone and what is really going on in this sick society. This works especially well when the text be gone feature is whipped out, as there can't be any ongoing outside chatter as to what happened.

Oh, unless of course you are in the inner circle and have mod status as the ps and pm work just fine for them.

Just unbelievable , bizarre behavior. Yes traders helping traders to keep them from talking to other traders.

There is a quick fix for that....I have mIRC open all day for my friendly chatting. You could use Skype or PalTalk too. Nice and secure too for you paranoid folks.

Honest, I wish I could turn my PMs off. Some new people beep me way too much with silly stuff.

The reason it is off is that there was a lot of unwanted solicititation of members going on. Yes, really.

Does NickTrader still hang out in Woodie's room? He's the only one I've ever seen use WCCI successfully. He was amazing.

Anonymous said...

esignal gives that rate to anyone.

also, back when i used to use that esignal crap we were all getting a $99 monthly fee for 1 year, which was $50 off each month. and it was for 12 months not 2.

you could start you own site today and get that offer set up on your site tomorrow. no big deal and its not worth the money.

as for woodie having an inner circle - he doesn't. he talks to no one about trading and only chit chats with them. i know. i was there for years.

as for cathy, shes not even part of woodies group. he doesn't like her. so who cares about her. just ignore her. she can't trade and just wants to belong to something. he mouth is vile.

again, woodie does not have an inner circle. he doesnt hang out with you people or his own moderators. he never did and never will. he won't even carry on a conversation more then 3 words.

"great to hear"

or

"glad to see ya"

or

"i dont use it"

or

"only 34"

thats it. no discussion on anything. he is not interested in helping people. have you ever seen him spend actual time helping a individual person? no.

well i take that back. he does attack individuals when they question his method. as if they shouldn't question it.

plenty of people use cci with success other then nicktrader. think back to who posted back then. i know i do and it works good for me. each his own.

too many people are blowhards, rambling on and on, and rightly so no one listens to them.

Woodie talks to me all the time and I want to have his love child!

Woodie talks to me all the time too, that is why I am drinking wine all the time and wearing Bernice's outfits.

Woodie talks to me almost all the time. Just can't figure out the 34 ema cross with the inverted ghost mittens setup is. Every weeks it's something new just wished he wouldn't PM me all day.

I feel sorry for Cathy. The girl is trying. But after 6 years of trading if you are'nt profitable.......

Anonymous said...

i left wcci the day he mistreated verus and dharma and have not been back since.

i appreciate the frank and open discussion of trading ideas in tradershaven including the use of cci.

i have also dropped in tradingelements and was suprised by the openness of ideas in the room and the apparent nicer behavior of the rooms main moderator.

in both these rooms the pm's are on, there is no intimidation, and you can freely talk about other rooms and trading ideas without the 'text-be-gone' feature being used.

i think thats the definition of 'traders helping traders.'

it would be nice if hotcomm would publish a directory of their rooms and moderators so traders could see the other options that they have.

thanks for the blog dennis and the opportunity to voice and opinion.

Can someone explain whatever happened to Gio and JeanYus. I know they have their own site now but was there a falling out with Woodie? I was gone for a period and when I dropped back in I noticed they were gone???

Anonymous said...

Gio and JeanYus at in TradingElements room on Hotcomm Relay7. Come join us!

Anonymous said...

i wondered where every one went. Reckon malcontents like myself, drop out of the traders helping traderes. No matter how hard some one tries it is not appreciated, and trades are missed.

So I gave up.

I spent most of the day, today, trying to register for the CCI Club and get the information from PFGBest.

No links to anyone, PFGBest sends nothing in response.

It's no surprise there isn't half as many people as in the past, you cannot even register.
