October Report
Well October is over and it seems that things are settling down again (at least for the real programs).
PaidToSurfMonitor's Passive Income Plan
This month's return was a solid 10.27%, which is still quite impressive considering how unstable the surf industry has been for the past two months (but it appears to be stabilizing now which is great). Anyway, all payouts have been processed and I have been paid in under 24 hours as always. The admin Alex also has promised that he will be redesigning the PaidToSurfMonitor site and members area, so keep a lookout for those changes occurring most likely during December sometime.
GIGMutual
Another small return of 2.21% with a couple key high risk programs going down relatively early in the month, but nonetheless it is positive and the reserve fund continues to grow, meaning the fund is getting more and more secure and stable.
GlobalForexClub
A great starting month with a trading gain of 15.37%!. Yes, I can confirm this number as I have live access to the account. Actual returns credited to members accounts were around 11% as there were some miscellaneous fees for the first month of operation. Please note that although I am a member, please do NOT email or PM me asking for an invite. I'm having less and less free time lately and the GFX signup process for the referrer is relatively complex.
IForexPlus
A low return of .48% this month, at least it is positive. It seems there may have been a change in trading style as this first week of November's returns were relatively low as well (1.5%).
FX-E
The news seems to be that trading on the new account has started, and Marcos is looking to refund all members.

NSFG's Spectacular Failure and it's new Successor
Well, unless you've had your head buried in the sand for the past three days, you know that NSFG is in trouble, a lot of it. And the best thing is, it is COMPLETELY Paul and Ken's fault. Now I can understand the occasional negative month, but to lose 70% of our money is completely ridiculous! And to top it all of, they decided to not tell us about this issue UNTIL THREE MONTHS AFTER IT HAPPENED! Professionals? Yeah right. As you can tell I am pretty pissed off because of Paul and Ken right now. And if you are completely confused about what I am ranting about, you should probably head over here and educate yourself.
But as they say, every cloud has a silver lining! And the silver lining in this case is Global Forex Club. I've recieved every single piece of due dilligence promised, including full live access to their trading account! So I can indeed confirm that they are as legitimate as it gets and from what I have recieved it really looks like they have gone the extra step to make sure every thing is set up legally. Unfortunately, they have now moved to create a much more private atmosphere for the club only allowing current members to invite new members. I'm not quite sure how the referring process will work yet (there are no referral fees) so stay tuned at their HYIPDiscussion thread here.
Everything Else:
PaidToSurfMonitor's Passive Income Plan payed me in a timely fashion as always. GF is still rocking right along, FX-Experts is still in limbo, although there is news that Marcos is going to try to trade out of the loss (bad idea IMO) and then refund us all our full principal once the account is back to breakeven. Oh, and it seems that Rog's Private Offer has bitten the dust, but it seems that no one really knows what is going on.
Overall my portfolio is not really looking that great right now. NSFG has essentially scammed, FXE is down, so is Rog. I guess I'll make a new section for problem programs in my portfolio.

September Recap
Hard to believe we are quickly descending into the long months of winter! Anyway, here is what has been going on with my portfolio and some of the other big programs in the past month.
Our official return for GIGMutual this month is 3.34%. I know this might be lower than some would like, but we only recieved returns from five our programs. It's not that anyone scammed us, but either that we just invested last month so the first returns will be next month, or that program's have changed their payout structures giving them more time to make payments. Everything is still going great otherwise. The DD team is as active as ever looking for great new programs, and if you have any suggestions please let one of us know!
Another great return for those of us in PaidToSurfMonitor's Passive Income Plan at %14.3 for September! Just for those of you that don't know, Alex (the admin) takes investors funds and diversifies them across multiple surf sites. Every month he has had so far has been profitable, and I just love this program because I still get great returns from surfs without having to diversify myself, and then actually surf!
As for GlobalForexClub, the brokerage has finally recieved their bank wire and are now in the process of verifying and crediting the account. I know this is taking a lot longer than we may all like, but I don't mind waiting as long as FxSol gets everything right the first time! I would much rather have a longer delay in the beginning of the program than many delays interspersed throughout the months to come (as has happened in NSFG).
Speaking of NSFG, this month once again was profitable and basically was pretty much the same as August. Ken reached the 5% by the third week, and then later on was up to %6.5 before giving all the profit back to 5% away. So the net returns for investors once again is %3.75. Not all that amazing, but it is nice to know that they are a solid program and most likely are not going to go anywhere.
iForexPlus recorded their first negative month in September, coming up at around -6% about (I don't have the exact # as the members area is currently down for maintenance on their site). This may seem dissapointing, but it actually makes me happy for two reasons. One, it tells members that they can't expect huge returns every month, and also it shows me that they are very good at managing the draw downs of their strategy, which is crucial when they trade with such high risk.
Another one everyone has been going crazy for is Rog's offer. After a short delay due to having to verify his e-gold account, he is back on schedule with payments which is great!
And nothing has really happened with the FXE mess since my last post. Marcos hasn't posted in a while so no one is really sure what is going on. Rabbit is MIA as always so he can't give us an update. Hopefully this situation will resolve. It is too soon to give up hope.

New Program Added to my Portfolio and other Updates
Hey everyone, I know I haven't updated in a while, but I'll get to that in a minute.
I have added a new program to my portfolio, iForexPlus. There has been little to no DD done on this one, but the admin thiec is very active all around MMG, including the forex section. From reading his posts there, I'm sure that real trading is going on. Now here's the catch: October will be their 4th month of trading. They haven't announced September's return yet, but the return in July was 139% and in August it was 209%! Now that is pure profit, the principal is not included in this. That tells me that there is some very high risk trading going on, but that thiec really knows what is he doing. That is why I suggest only putting a small amount in compared to more dependable programs. I will contact the admin soon and see if I can get an interview together to post for you guys here.
Other News
GlobalForexClub's trading account at FxSol has finally been opened! They are now funding the account. I will have live access to it as soon as the admin recieves the password for it, as it is FxSol's policy is not to give login information until the account is funded.
The whole issue with Fx-Experts is still up in the air. Marcos has been trying to update people at HYIPDiscussion, but every time he posts people jump down his throat demanding refunds and asking questions. Honestly people, Marcos seems like the kind of guy that once he gets his mind set he is not going to change it. Complaining isn't going to make it any better, so there is no reason to continue speculating and posting angry demands. Marcos is going to continue trading once his broker has been changed, and then probably open withdrawals. He is not the most communicative admin out there, but give him a chance.
It is amazing to see how fast people change their stance from cheerleaderlike to angry customer. But I guess in the HYIP world, everyone's only true allegiance is to grams of e-gold!
On another note
I'm obviously not posting quite as frequently as I have been in the past. Mainly it is because class is starting back up and I have significantly less time than I did during the summer months. My less frequent posting also signifies that my portfolio is becoming more solid. I'm pretty happy with my rate of growth right now, so I am mainly just compounding my profits every month into my most reliable programs and occasionally taking out some profit.
Don't get me wrong, I will still actively maintain this blog, but don't expect more than 3-4 updates a month.

What a month!
Well we have seen a lot of terrible, crazy, and great things happen in the past month, and even in the last week!
First off, I would like to announce GIGMutual has increased its return again this month! The percentage is a great 4.37% and I look forward to the profitable months to come!
PaidToSurfMonitor's Passive Income Plan is still performing incredibly. There return for this month was 15-20% despite the fact that the surf industry is so unstable right now! The reason I don't know the exact percentage is because I had some units added mid month and I'm not sure which unit earned what. This is still the best way in my opinion to diversify into autosurfs without all the headaches of picking the best sites and then actually surfing.
GlobalForexClub is experiencing a delay with the broker, but this was mostly anticipated. Myself and HansG should get live trading access once it is ready to go.
And as most of you know, FX-Experts seems to have experience some hefty trading losses. No one is sure exactly how much was lost, but Marcos seems determined to recover those losses instead of just releasing the remaining capital. All withdrawals and deposits have been stopped, but I am remaining positive that Marcos can have a comeback.
NSFG's return for the month is a low 5%, which is actually 3.75% for investors. I will be keeping some of my capital with them, but will probably reduce my holdings here and add them to higher paying investments.
MegaInvForum's admin reports that they are already up 10% this month after the NFP report. That does match up with what his trading account shows. He also cleared up the confusion on the 30k withdrawal from the account. It was his largest client pulling out his capital.
Rog's Private Offer is still running just fine. I recieved my payout as requested on the 1st and will most likely spend here again in the near future.
Also, a new group that I am part of is forming over at HYIPD, called the HYIPDisucssion DD Group. Our mission is to perform due dilligence on new opportunities that want to become trusted. We are still in the early stages but keep a look out for us in the future. Please note that this group is already closed and not accepting new members.

Overview of last week in HYIPLand
It seems that it has been pretty quiet regarding most of the legitimate programs out there, which is great to see. Here is what I've seen in the past week.
FXEMA
The admin of FX-Experts, Marcos Matos has introduced a new managed forex account program. The minimum is $3,000, and is automatically traded, which means no human interaction. Myself, along with the rest of the community haven't really liked this, as a failure of MegaInvForum's robot cost them $15,000.
FXAccountManager
This is also apparently related to Marcos. He is listed as the admin of this site, along with Hermann Netto, who is the trader for FX-Experts. I see no minimum listed on the site, but it is traded with Dukascopy which is a very large and respected broker. If you are serious about getting a good managed account, this would be a good option to look into.
Silver Gate Forex Hedging
A new program created by 35 Udachu members "hand picked" by Rod (the admin of Udachu) himself. I certainly do not like the way Rod represents himself on the forum, but at least he is not the admin of this one. This program seems to be based on an agressive hedge & scalp method, but it has been effective for them. Also, there is some very good due dilligence done by the ladies at ProjectPCF, so I would check that out too if you already haven't. Please PM or email me for an invite code!
NSFG
Ken seems to be getting back to old form! He is now posting regular trading updates and baggin lots of pips. As most of you know, he has already locked in the 5% for the month, and if he keeps up like this I wouldn't be suprised if this months return ends up close or in the double digits.
PaidToSurfMonitor's Passive Income Plan
Nothing really to update here, other than that I am considering upping my spend again. If you need a way to diversify into autosurfers without the hassle, this is the way to go.
GlobalForexClub
Using one of my payouts from PTSMPIP, I finally got around to investing here. I am sure this will soon be one of my favorite forex trading programs. You can see the intial DD I did on this on here.

I'm running out of good titles....
Anyway, here what has been happening with my investments and what else has caught my eye over the past week.
PaidToSurfMonitor and GIGMutual have both paid me this month as always. We are having a little problem with the host for GIG, but it is nothing serious and should be resolved by next week sometime.
Also, another opportunity that everyone should be watching is MoneyMovesAsia. Specifically, their new site MoneyMovesTrading is noteworthy as Chris, the admin/owner of both sites is considering allowing managed accounts at MMT for only $250-$500! Even better, his trader has been trading currencies for over 15 years and last month's return was a huge 44%. There is an active folder about MMA at HYIPDiscussion here.
GlobalForexClub continues to look good. It seems that trading is scheduled to start on September 1st, but keep in mind that this is just an estimate. You can never know how long it takes for all the paperwork to clear, just remember how long it took NSFG to switch brokers!
One more thing, GF still continues to roll on just fine. If you are interested in a stable, private club PM me at HYIPDiscussion or Goldentalk or email me at jr0515(at)gmail.com.
