Bigwin / Forex Bridge resurfaces as iso

Greetings Zulu-fans.

Okay - I can't prove it but I just spotted a provider on Zulutrade called iso that looks suspiciously like Bigwin/Forex Bridge. As you recall, Bigwin disappeared suddenly off the Zulutrade system after a recent wipeout caused by the crash in the GBP.

The reason why I think its the same provider is because the descrption is almost the same as Bigwin. This time he's trading the EUR/JPY which is different from his earlier behavior. But he performance looks equally solid to what I saw with Bigwin, high percentage win rate, with the occasional large drawdown. Also, he appeared on the Zulutrade system on Sept 18th, about a week before he dropped off as Bigwin.

Most users who've given feedback on Bigwin have dismissed him as a provider, but unlike any other provider i've ever used, Bigwin had a postive overall affect on my account. So i'm going be watching shortly and possibly dipping my foot in on the live account side.

Meanwhile Zulutrade provider Coolie 1997 remains on a terrific roll with 8 straight wins bagging 296 pips in my demo account.

  1. Bigwin "also" created identity "fastforex" a few days before disappearing - that should probably be the same person as well ...

  2. Queb-

    Thanks for the info, we appreciate it!

    Fastforex looks like he's all GBP/USD - which fits the mold of Bigwin in that one half his pairs are continental Europe based - either GBP or EUR.

    Too bad we have to turn over rocks to figure out who is who. Yet another possibility for improvement to the ZT platform.

    Thanks again.

  3. Funny - since I posted this yesterday, the following has appeared below the profile in Zulutrade:

    This signal provider is also known as : Lady Luck , 100, 100%, 100%, 1000fxcm, 111fdd, 1123456, 1234abcd, 60%, 7-star, 99%, A, AUD, Compass, east tiger, eurusd, eurusd-fx168, forex, fx-auto, fx168fx, fxcm, fxcm168, good, huwei666, luckystar, NBA, new, NO1, player, puma, Signal, support, were woif, wy888, zhonghua99, zulu, zulu, zulutrade.

    In other words, this provider has been around the block a few times. This strikes me as a negative and makes me think twice before adding this provider....

  4. I just wanted to mention that I just avoid any signal providers that have a lot of other signal provider accounts listed like 'Lady Luck'. There is something very wrong with that, and I won't even evaluate their signals. No one would ever need that many accounts unless, pardon my term, they suck at providing signals, and have to keep doing the "do over" with a new account. These guys/gals are to be avoided in my book.

  5. I am with you on trying to figure out who is who, because it is so easy to just delete/bail and start a new account. Zulutrade needs to make some improvements. I suppose it really is all up to us and the data. Wait 10 weeks or more before using their signals. If you like what you see then consider getting in very lightly. By my thoughts if you always have the data then you can make your judgments and calculations. (Just hope the data remains accurate Zulutrade)
