ForexRobotNation.com – Best Forex Robot & Expert Advisor Reviews Forex Robot, Expert Advisor Hey guys, I am doing something a little different today as I don’t review a product but I take a look at Cynthia Macy a Forex day trader.
Cynthia has a mailing list and she provides links to new software that comes out and she often gives away free break out trading strategies as well. This all sounds well and good but I do have some concerns about this trader and who she really is.
As I am quite involved in the Forex market I am a member of many Forex websites, forums and mailing lists. In watching my mailing list I was always interested by Cynthia Macy, mostly because she appeared to be an attractive woman, and this often draws attention.
Yet, when I was looking at her website and doing research on her I found that her picture is not actually her. This leads me to believe that Cynthia may just be a handle and we may all just be getting duped.
Let me show you the image:
If you have ever watched movies in North America you would realize very quickly that this image is actually Jessica Alba one of the most attractive stars inΒ Hollywood. Now, what would be the reason for this? I know it is sometimes good to use an alias if you don’t want to get your name out there but using a picture of a Hollywood star certainly doesn’t provide me much good faith.
That’s really all I have for now. I just wanted to point out that there is a little discrepancy in this representation and that you should be careful if she tries to sell you something.
A fan of hers? Think I wrote something incorrect here?
Please leave a comment and let me know your thoughts.
I do agree with JJ wintels . I bought her new system of green tomato for newbies. I got the download link instantly with fully documented pdf. If implemented correctly the system is profitable . Already got my investment back
I’m not a re-seller and I’m not getting paid to write this. I’m not a friend of Ms Macy or part of her organization. I am trying to give you honest feedback.
After reading this negative review, I was really concerned about the product. I’m cheap. Always have been, I don’t like wasting money. I told her upfront that I was concerned about throwing away $67 on a possible scam. My email went out at 1342 on 5/9/17. Her reply came back at !518 (or roughly 1 1/2 hours later). As a result of her answer I bought the system and downloaded it to MT4 where it appears as a template that you manually apply to your charts.
It actually comes with two additional indicators that I did not expect. The candlesticks are either Heiken-Ashi candles or something very close like it. The “box” looks like a Donchian Channel, but it’s not. The various parts work together as a system. I’m familiar with Donchian Channels and ichimoku which both use something that looks like her “box.” But my initial impression is that the “Macy Box” works much better at finding volatility compression. There is nothing magic about the “trend following” aspect of her system and you can probably do the same thing with moving averages. BUT, the volatility aspect is the real kicker. Her system does allow you to see volatility compression and expansion much better and cleaner than (let’s say) Bollinger Bands and it’s more accurate than the TTM Squeeze. (For those who swear by TTM Squeeze, can you use it with her system? You shouldn’t have to but I don’t see why not.) So it’s the combination of trend following AND identifying volatility compression/expansion that makes this well worth the 67 bucks.
If you’re looking for something that will make you rich while you’re off fly-fishing, this probably won’t do it. It’s a tool, like a hammer or a saw. You actually have to USE it to find a major trend on a larger time frame and then enter on a smaller time frame. What this will do for you is make the finding of the higher trend easier and make the entry on the lower trend easier too. But again, it’s a TOOL, not a magic wand.
I have exchanged several emails with Ms Macy and she appears to be exactly what she says: A trader who develops and sells systems. I’m guessing that system development is both a hobby and an alternate source of income. There is an upsell involved when you buy this (meaning you’ll be offered other stuff to buy). That may explain why this system is $67. She’s using it as a “leader pricing.” But of course, you don’t have to buy anything else. the system works great for $67.
As far as this guy “Karl” ordering the product and not receiving it and not getting replies: I find that very, very doubtful. I think it’s nothing but a scurrilous attack which I doubt he can prove. Just based on my experience, I think it’s total bull—-.
Sincerely, JW
It’s hardly a negative review. It’s an inquisition into why she’s using a photo of Jessica Alba. Obviously, when getting involved with any investment opportunity, you don’t want to see any blatant miscues like these.
I don’t see what reason Karl would have to lie to us as a community. Cynthia isn’t exactly big enough to attack without cause.
Thanks for your feedback.
That picture is not Jessica Alba. Do your homework.
All you have to do is drag and drop the image into Google images, which I have done, to see that IT IS Jessica Alba. So I have done my homework.
Get your eyes checked π
I’ve seen her ads for $67 or $97 . . . hard to believe anyone would trade a goose that lays golden eggs for the price of dinner for two.
However . . . that photo IS NOT Jessica Alba. Hair texture is totally different. JA has worn short blonde hair but it looks nothing like this picture. Mouth is totally different, Chin totally different (JA comes to a point). Face shape totally different . . . JA has a long oval face, this chick has a square face.
That doesn’t mean that it’s really Cynthia Macy . . . but it’s not JA.
Itβs not important the looks of the person just that the Software works thank you
While this is true, you also have to consider the judgement of the vendor a bit flawed.
You are right! She says she has spent 35 years trading forex but wow…look how young and beautiful she still is. She must have an age-defying secret up her sleeves.
By the way, I asked her via email if she was for real and also asked her if it was possible to trial her Color Coded Forex Trading System. She responded fairly quickly and said “she” was certainly for real but I must buy her trading software first and try it out for myself. No refunds!
Hi Iso, yea, a real fountain of youth! Thanks for letting us know.
Hi, I ordered and paid for the color coded indicators from Cynthia on March 21, but so far have not received the system or a reply to my mails. so, I hope this is not another scam like many?
Regards, Karl
I hope you hear from her Karl.
Cynthia has still not responded, so, believe me, I feel cheated and defrauded.
