99% with you.

I try to make my clients understand that, sometimes, being out of the game for 1 day is as (or much more!) profitable than trading! When you have 20 days of profit in a row, clients forgot about the intrinsic risk of the market.

Anyhow, it seems we all know here what are we talking about ;) And I like that, because the net is full of scam, new-comers, and gimme-your-money people :)

Greetings from Spain, and have a good night!

Hi Total Recall,

If considered SPAM, then I have to apologize for that. However, the definition of spam here must be carefully defined. I was providing one free signal a day (as part of our management model). Now: How many users post their positions, analysis, etc...? And, even more: Does any of them post signals IN ADVANCE and in a detailed manner (not just 'buy/sell around xxxx level and look for this or that resistance/support level'.

They only removed our post, not hundreds of other with same kind of content.

I was just sending an EXACT entry point. An exact Stop loss, and an exact take profit, in advance. And is it working for 13 days!

So, what is the reason for removing my posts? They know! not me.

And you, do you know the reason?

P.D: 2 posts, from which 1 was deleted, not 4.

Thanks for your kind comments

By the way, let me suggest that it may has something to do with US regulations because of our website, rather than the content of the post itself.

That explains why the spanish version of the post is not removed. Here you have a part of the email we are interchanging with Oanda:

[...]If you do not wish to provide an NFA ID you will be required to take down your website and not prospect clients via any form of promotional material/website[..]


Clear enough, isn't it?

Finally, TR,

Regarding Risk Management. 40% may definitely be a very high figure. Of course it is! I know 'managers' who have lost 90% of an account in less than a year (new-comers, natürlich! :))

Just remember this is leveraged trading. I have never reached that drawdown, but you have to be ready for that. No one that do not realized that, is fated to a fatal destiny in leveraged trading.

Now, if you trade leveraged, is because you want more profit, right? Good. So, assuming trading techniques are 'independent' of the asset being traded (for technical), is it sensible than in one year the asset may lose 15% of its value (and I am being VERY conservative here), as well as it can grow 15% in value.

And now, if you are leveraged, you have a minimum multiply factor of 2 or 3 times. So, do you still think 40% of maximum allowed risk is too much for a leveraged product? Is your system 100% efficient? 😲 is it even 95%? 😲 We have an 84% and still is difficult to avoid some months of loses!

So, why trading in leveraged products instead of trading right the spot market!!!??? I can't see your point, honestly.

The only thing we have to say is already proved in our in-advanced provided signal.

Again, we have never reached a 40% drawdown, but if you are never prepared to fight in a situation like that, you will go from a 40% to 90% in a matter of days/hours.

Trading is all about risk managment, not price!

Thanks

I am specifically interested in the donkey show, the relaxation provided by the marijuana and of course learning how to not kick the bucket. Please let me know if I have missed any areas of importance. ;)

After experiencing all the UPs & DOWNs in this Forex market for more than 3 years,
I have come out with a Successful Trading stratergy / Formula which i am using
this formula for my trading to generate profits. This is how i can describe my stratergy :
 
Above all, first thing we need is ' PATIENCE ' and a best proven profitable trading stratergy.
 
1. Pairs concentrated : 4 pairs
    Eur/Usd, Gbp/Jpy, Gbp/Usd, Xau/Usd(Silver)
 ( in which i have done lots of research on its fluctuations )
 
2. Max open positions :
    On each pair, only 1 open positions at a time, not more than that.
 
3. Trades per Day :
    Its not compulsory that we should trade everyday, As per my research we can get the best entry levels as per the trend is upto 2 or max 3 per week on each pair. Even if we get only 1 best entry level per pair in a week, is also appreciated.
 
4. Money management and the Returns on Investment :
     This is the most important factor where many traders fail to organise themselves and blow out all their profis and investment.
 
As per my stratergy : ' FIX it and FORGET it ',
 
If an investor invest $1000 in his one account, then
 
whenever we get the best entry level in any pair, then just use $50 and open a trade
Risk factor : Max $50 ( Fix the Stop loss and forget it )
Reward factor : Max $50 ( Fix the Take profit and forget it )
 
So considering all the 4 pairs, if we get atleast 4 trades per pair per month,
then totally we get 16 profitable trades, from that we can easily make $800 per month.
 
Even if 1 or 2 trades is not in our favour, even then there is nothing to worry,
atleast I can assure 50% of profits per month on the investment, and i mean it seriously.
 
 
Thanks

    Hello All,

If you are looking for a SAFE investment vehicle in Forex, please check out my PAMM account. https://bit.ly/h4jk71 has all the details, and I am 100% verified by FxBook. I wanted to create my first Holy Grail, and after years of trial and error I have finally realized a TRUE HOLY GRAIL!

Please email me if you have any questions.

P.S. This is for NON US RESIDENTS ONLY, due to the restrictions being imposed by socialist Obama.

Talking Points:
  o 6 month track record
  o > 100% growth
  o < 10% draw down
  o Sharpe Ratio: 0.18
  o 100% fully automated (zero touch)
  o PAMM account to remove all non-trading risk

Any question?

Any question?

Here are your pros:

Not bad, reasonable risk to reward ratio i.e. best trades +200 pips, worse trade -112 pips. You need to unlock your trading history for me to perform a proper analysis.

Cons:
No telephone or address on your website. So far you only made 151 trades, not a large enough statistical sample. I would change the name as Holy Grail is too sharlatan for anyone taste. Currently, I have over $7.5 M trading my software with over 1,000 trades made and yet I don't dare to mention the words Holy Grail.

Umm, no, Winsor, actually if you remove the 'Custom date' setting ... it's 504 trades. 😉
Surround yourself with people whose eyes light up when they see you and who have no agenda for your reform.

Actually the Custom Date was the date the Holy Grail started 100% exclusive management of the account (Nov 17th-2010). Prior to that there were multiple personalities 'attempting' to trade the account.

So for an accurate record of the Holy Grail strategy, start with the custom date.
