// ABOUT ME
My name is Etienne Crete (from Montreal, Canada). I'm a swing Forex trader and help aspiring Forex traders develop a trading method that works for them so they can produce income allowing them to live with more freedom.
I blog at www.desiretotrade.com and host the Desire To Trade Podcast. I was fed up with the “fake” millionaire traders and the “get-rich-quick-trading guys”. That's why you can expect more free content from me than what other people charge for!
If you truly want to succeed in Forex trading, I believe you need to keep working on yourself so you can improve your strengths, but also your weaknesses. Do not focus solely on what you're good at.

awesome interview. really quality insights i got. thank you.!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for the comment 🙏
you prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know a tool to get back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly forgot the password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me!
@Barrett Finnley I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im in the hacking process now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Barrett Finnley it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D

"I cannot control the outcome of my trades, I can only control the process" - THIS IS IT.
Golden advice!
I'm just an order taker for the technique
Courtney is the man! My dad took me to a trading seminar he hosted in Sydney Australia around 3 years ago. He had a free spare ticket and I thought it was just going to be a weekend bonding experience with my old man, but it changed my life. I was financially illiterate when I walked in that room, and when I walked out I became a trader and never looked back! I became obsessed with the markets and owe a huge portion of my success since then to that seminar. Courtney is the real deal, phenomenal teacher and an even better trader. So grateful to have been initiated by him. Thanks for sharing this podcast Etienne, very cool stuff.
That's an awesome story! Thanks for sharing :)
Your old man did great for you.
key takeaway "you are just a order taker for a system. you're not a trader. Humbleness is how you make money." thanks etienne for the great interview.
I especially like Courtney's emphasis on being humble, doing what the market tells you to do. Thanks Etienne.
Glad you liked it! My pleasure!
I started trading only once a day at most and my trading percentage increased big time.
I agree with him when he said the psychology of the trader is the hardest part.
Today, 28 Feb 2020,
I sold GBP USd at 1.2860. market dropped 110 pips. I refused to close the trade thinking that this could turn out into a 500 pip trade and shortly thereafter, the pound started appreciating and I ended up closing the trade with a profit of 55 pips.
This is umpteenth time that this has happened.
Do you trade Forex buddy
@@timrandy89gmail66 yes all day every day
@Red Velvet it’s not illegal in India
thank you etienne and courtney. RIP courtney you are a legend.
the edge (Strategy) is a proven method, its actually the psychology of the person using it that messes it up... wow, very insightful once again. Thanks Etiene. Less is more. Keep it simple and stick to the method.
"...just an order taker for a system..." LOVE it. Nice way to think of trading & keep emotions in-check.
Refreshing (ages I saw a piece on Fundamentals). Courtney Smith's prescription of humbleness appears to be the key to success. His citation of big boy approach to adjusting position is inspirational. Interviewer has done a good job.
That's right! Really glad you liked the interview 💯
Just one word: Wow! Thank you Courtney, thank you Etienne.
Haha awesome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you both for this excellent interview. It's a game-changer for me.
Awesome interview indeed, I was sorry to hear he passed…this is filled with gems!
Hello Etienne, That was great interview. Courtney is right, things are simple but people makes it too complex.
@30:00 100% correct. Don't fight the market
One of the best interviews you have done, Etienne!!!!
Super glad you liked it!
Great interview. Thank you.

Not a single person share their techniques. Ok we manage the risk and emotions but you still need a good systematic approach. I come to the conclusion that when they fail they move to teaching to make money
great interview as always.
This is like a war veteran. I have enjoyed every bit of the truth he has spit.
Good interniew. Thanks for doing this interview.
My pleasure as always 🙏
Hi Etienne! Amazing interview. Thank you so much!

Great interview. 'Do what the market tells you to do'. Go with the trend. The market is always right, you just read it wrong.

What a lovely person.
These are excellent
This interview is liking getting a Wealth Builder refresher. I am an alumni of January 2013 Los Angels. The channel trading Courtney speaks about work very good, especially when you get the a super entry at the low end of the price cycle. Today's current trade environment is prefect for channeling trading. Check out Courtney's videos and recommend his Wall Street Winners.
Thanks for sharing! That is definitely awesome!
Took a minute to dig through all those layer of complexity but once you open them up and he got going this is an excellent interview thank you..Seen a couple videos you’ve done now this one got the subscription
Thanks
Great work
Glad you liked the interview!
Awesome interview... Thanks for being a blessing and sharing... Courtney Smith started trading in high school in the 60's... I was in high school in the 60's as well, however, I am just starting to trade now... I think he has a few years on me... hahaha
Yeah but it doesn't matter...you can make it happen too!

Étienne je tiens à te remercier, je suis tes vidéos depuis déjà un certain moment. J'ai commencé à trader en 2013, sur des comptes démo et jusqu'à ce jour-ci. J'ai construit un certain niveau de confidence et désormais je compte ouvrir mon premier compte live et j'aurais des questions par rapport à quel broker serait bien pour quelqu'un qui habite le Canada?
Keep it up mon gars! Très belle entrevue avec Courtney.
Merci! Pour les brokers tu peux te référer à ma playlist sur le sujet: th-cam.com/play/PLwmpbNUnTt6hTMbCh3KQ8K5_usTg2qMbt.html

Excellent mindset shift 📈

We started trading for the thrill and excitment but need to lose that emotion to be successful,
