@DAO, who are you really & why are you so mad? I have already said to the real MonicaPropTraderz (monicap) that I would refer MonicaPropTraderz mentioned in my post as a fake and impersonator, and I am trying to get the post edited by the moderator. As I was new to Discord and unaware of impersonators, I didn't double-check for the fake IDs. Also, I joined that channel with the fake invite posted in one of the threads here. So, the impersonator was a member her too. As I mentioned, I didn't ask the right questions and ignored the red flags. If I was able to spot the difference in Discord ID, I would not have been scammed. That is the reason for this post so that novice investors/traders become aware of such scams.

Thanks @Azazel This is good information. I wish I knew or read about this earlier!

Ah! You @DAO joined an hour ago and post this reply immediately. There must be something you have to gain by posting this!

Right. Fake Discord invite and fake Discord profile impersonating the real MonicaPropTraderz. Whoever read this should never do that mistake of falling prey to such scammers!

The post doesn't contain any false information as I have posted the screenshot of the fake MonicaPropTraderz with moniicap Discord ID. This would definitely help novice investors & possibly others to double check the user IDs before committing to any investments or advise and not get scammed with this copy trading scam.

I have found the Discord channel invite from one of NinjaTrader threads here about 2 months back. So, the fake person who posted that message is already an indo-investasi member. But how is it possible to join the real MonicaPropTraderz Discord channel with a fake invite? Also, how does Discord allow the fake person to use the same "MonicaPropTraderz" user name? This is so confusing, and not easy to understand!

I am a beginner level trader using NinjaTrader mostly. I am trying to learn about any good trading strategy to be profitable. I am also a fan of fancy indicators with no luck yet. I am trying to have very minimum set of indicators on my chart as too many indicators do not help with trading. I have tried some auto bots with no success. As eyes are better than any indicator, my goal is to have a simple trade setup (strategy) with minimum set of indicators and good results. This is what I told MonicaPropTraderz impersonator (Discord ID: moniicap) when she asked about my goals at the time of joining the Discord group of real MonicaPropTraderz (Discord ID: monicap). As the conversation progressed, the fake MonicaPropTraderz impersonator told me this: Alright, you know there are lots of profits in the market if you get to understand it very well and deal with the right prospects... I'll recommend you adopt my corporate broker where I personally assist members grow and learn from the market as well, I got affiliated to a broker where I allow members automatically mirror my trades and grow from the exact same picks and make, and most importantly get to join the live trading session, to understand more on how the account grows and improve personal knowledge as well, its more like an interactive class where you'll have your account automatically copy my trades while you ask questions and learn from the trades as well, I really think practical learning is one of the best ways to grow from the market and if by any chance you miss the live trading sessions, you'll be able to get some analysis on how the trades was done for the day to better understand the trades done on your account, I'll be open to introduce you to this service if you're open to learn and grow with this option, it's quite a better way to grow good profit and learn from the market as well, currently I handle about 50+ members on this who earn average $3k-$15k weekly (depending on your account size) from copying my trades, I think this is part of what you need to grow in the market with, and if you're open to it, I'll introduce you more, pass you the broker to have a look and most possibly create an account to get started. Alright, I'll further explain how the trade works for you to better understand, on the broker when you create an account your account will be linked to my trades to mirror the trades and grow from it. For an instance, if I pick a trade and enters the trade with 20% of my account capital, your account does exactly the same thing and enters the same trade with 20% of your account capital, and the returns are divided according to the ratio of value invested, before I pass you the broker, I'll be open on the commission fee, I charge 10% of commission from the profit made out in your account, while the rest 90% goes to you as the total returns. The broker is absolutely free to sign up for, you'll not be making any other fee. The minimum value to get started with on the broker is $3k, but mostly I recommend members to get started from $5k-$10k range to be able to engage more products to grow from, your account will automatically mirror my trades while you also learn from it, It totally depends on what you can afford to start with. I'll pass you the broker to have a look and most possibly create an account to get started, if this suits you well enough. https://vantagechasers.com/ Let me know once you've created an account and verified (KYC) your account so I could guide you on the next process. I thought “Wow, this is a great opportunity coming from a well-known person among trading community” and really excited to become part of her investment group. I was really impressed by all the things real MonicaPropTraderz published in her Discord channel, in her website https://www.proptraderz.com/, and NinjaTrader eco system. Long story short, I started my copy trading investment journey with $6K investment ignoring several red flags because I trusted the MonicaPropTraderz impersonator thinking she is real, totally my mistake. The first red flag is the broker vantagechasers.com had no good reviews. The second red flag is that the deposit/withdrawal could be made only through Cryptocurrency. The third red flag is that vantagechasers.com have no customer support phone numbers, no contact address & no published documentation/help on topics. I was impressed by the first day return of about 5% to my account with copy trading of options. MonicaPropTraderz impersonator posted a screenshot of what options were traded and how much total profit was made for the day. Then I got this advice from MonicaPropTraderz impersonator saying “Of course, the profit made on your account with your deposited capital has been credited. You know the higher your account trading capital, the higher your profit returns. I'll advise you to get your account to $10k to $15k trading deposit.” As per the advice, I had increased my deposit amount $15K in few days expecting higher returns (Greed). Still, I did not ask about withdrawing the profits, a big MISTAKE. Next day, I got this message from MonicaPropTraderz impersonator: I'm glad to have you as a member of my trading family. I'd recommend you to get your account to the Double PDT level for your VantageChasers account to join in my double trading sessions. Getting your VantageChasers account to a standard double PDT (Pattern Day Trader) level, will allow your account to engage into my double trading session, allow both your ROI and invested capital combined to join trades and also to engage into more products in the market and compound better profit returns. Also, to have your account get to joining the live trading session on the broker, you’ll need to get your account up the double PDT level which is the range of $50k and above account capital, that will enable your account automatically enroll into the live trading session and also with additional security software which will be available on your account to improve your account earnings, have your account on a more stable condition for trading and prevent your account against any form of losses and I’ll recommend you to have your account on that position to grow from there, it’s always important to participate on the practical aspect of trading, and I’ll really encourage you to get your account on such position ahead of next week's trades, or as soon as possible because the stock market is currently profitable. You can also start by getting it to the PDT level of $25k account capital, before getting to the double PDT level of $50k. I'll be waiting for your response, keep me posted. Your account can actually get to $25k just by joining in my trades but you'll have to consider learning how these trades are being executed by joining my live trading sessions which requires your account deposit to be at least $25k with a good amount of profits as well. That's the standard PDT level, also you can set up a weekly withdrawal of $5K at this level as your account will be on a more standard level to engage in double trading sessions and multiple products. I hope you understand me well enough. I thought by becoming a 2xPDT level trader, I could be set for life, and retire real soon from my job. So, I applied for loans from my 401K account, and deposited the loan amount to my vantagechasers.com account as Crypto. Because Crypto.com blocked by Crypto withdrawals, it took another week for my Crypto deposits to reach vantagechasers.com account. By this time, MonicaPropTraderz impersonator told me $60K would be needed for 2xPDT level because lot of people entered it already and there's limited slot for it. Finally, my vantagechasers.com account deposit reached $60K+ (after more loans) to become a 2xPDT level trader. Also, my total account balance reached about $173K in 5 weeks’ time with 275% return on investment. Now, came the twist with a lure to become a VIP level trader by depositing another $40K, and this would let me withdraw $10K. I thought I could reach the VIP level by withdrawing $30K from my account profits and contributing the rest. So, I checked with MonicaPropTraderz impersonator about withdrawing $30K from profits as any withdrawal need to be approved by her, but she said I can’t even do the weekly $5K withdrawals as promised earlier because I expressed an interest in VIP level, I was removed from 2xPDT level and put in a slot to become a VIP level trader. My eyes were opened by this sudden twist, and I had asked my vantagechasers.com account to be closed so that I could withdraw at least the deposited amount first. But, MonicaPropTraderz impersonator & vantagechasers.com had other plans to extract more money from me with the fake profits they show in my account. They said that I would have to make a 10% commission Crypto payment to my Expert Trader (MonicaPropTraderz impersonator) before I could withdraw any money from my vantagechasers.com account. I don’t want to lose another $10K+ in addition to what was lost earlier as deposit. Now, I understood the real reason for this hyped up returns. The scamsters wanted to collect more money as commission payment when someone tried to close the account. I have read about this standard Nigerian scam of paying a handling fee to withdraw a large sum of money. So, I was prepared and didn't want to lose another penny. And, I have started my complaints with all USA federal authorities (check here: https://www.finra.org/investors/insights/recovering-from-investment-fraud) to report this scam, and possibly recover my deposit money. It could take months or years to recover my money, or I may not get any money back, and most importantly I would have to postpone my retirement by another year at least! I narrated this for the benefit of other novice part-time investors like myself so that they do not fall prey and waste their hard-earned money with any type of investment scam. MonicaPropTraderz impersonator told she handles about 50+ members in her investment group. It could be a lie to get me to invest in this copy trading BS. Or, it is possible they are being about quite about being scammed. Another type of investment scam is listed here: https://www.ic3.gov/PSA/2025/PSA250703 Finally, I just want to say not to trust your hard-earned money with anyone as there are many different kinds of investment scams. These scamsters could be well known, e.g. people posing as well-known investment advisors, or one of your friends or relatives or people around you. Do not trust their word blindly as I did as they try to exploit our inexperience, greed, laziness, etc. Do your own research, and form your own investment strategy. Make sure you have full control of your investments, and should be able to deposit/withdraw money at your own will. Now, I know people like MonicaPropTraderz impersonator may not be acting alone as they could have a big team of people and be part of a large network influencing or scamming people around the world. They might start with new identities, or websites, or brokers if they are found out. All their communication is well scripted because they know how to say the right words to lure people to influence them into making deposits and scam out their money. I know this site have some real experienced investors/traders as members. I welcome any comments/suggestions.

Up! @apmoo @kimsam please.

Wow, you have an excellent memory! I have found the Weis Wave indicator from Neo pack, but it appears to be a limited version of the original Weis Wave indicator as it plots only 8 Weis wave swings (max). It plots the volume well, but plots all the bars gray only. I am attaching the install file for reference. NTB_iWeisWave_v1.zip

It should works with latest NT8 too, and it is a good indicator. It was developed by David Weis himself!

This is the original Weis Wave indicator, and it can plot either Weis Wave on the main panel or Weis Wave volume on the second panel. It was locked to my old desktop and I couldn't get a new license key after moving to the new PC. I am also attaching the Weis Wave setup document for reference. It would be great if someone could unlock this indicator. WeisWave_NT8_V1.0.1.zip Weis -Wave-Setups.pdf

I have attached multi timeframe trend labels indicator. This shows the trend for multiple time frames as text in the chart panel. This may help with what you want. MTFTrendLabels.zip

Jhon Snow is really good. I bought NT 8.0.28.0 from him a year back. And, he gave me free NT 8.1.4.2 update with some additional goodies. His price is also reasonable compared to many others.

I got this Wide Range bars indicator and it shows FVG similar to the one from Scalperintel. It is not locked. You can give this a try! Thanks WideRangeBar_1.zip
