Question #1:
There is a system trading just one pair, where you see negative pips yet it is profitable. What kind of system is it? The answer is martingale. But there is another system, do you try to find out?

If you know the answer what stops you to post it here anyway ? Do you really know something we do not know, then please make it for sure. By the way another system means what here ? I do not understand you completely and totally anyway. Keep posting more questions.
Maybe; he doesn’t know the answer; just wanted to know! By the way, I have no idea on this type of tool!

I am with the last poster here, start posting more questions, that way you will really help to keep that thing going no matter what and it will help with you for many many matters. But you have already catched a lot of people out there. See my point ?

OK, nobody knows. So the answer is swaps.
e.g. when you open trade short USDTRY you got so huge swap the trade can close with negative pips and yet positive profit

Nope, that is the way to pay spread twice.
Answer to that question is sort of trvivial, dont mix it up with zero trading costs :)

Would hedging with options trading allow you to make profit from the option even if the Forex trade closed in negative pips?

How it can be? Generally it’s not possible! Even, hedging is the most complicated trading system!

Nope hedging would not work.
Martingale would work if the bigger position goes in profit

it is quite easy guys, simply trade at broker with zero spreads which is charging comissions instead.

I do not understand. How would that mean that you could make profit? You still have to pay the commission whether the trade wins or loses

By the way there is third option on Question 1. You can trade not martingale, but variable position sizing and again to have negative total pips and positive PnL. On Question 2 it is obvious of course, but often the cost is absolutely the same and even worse, because most often commission based brokers offer variable spread, which start at 0 pips but most often rise up to 1 pips on EUR/USD for example, than if you have 1$ per lot turnover fee, it is like having 1 pips spread plus the raw spread which is something like 0.4 so 1.4 spread, instead you can trade fixed spread 1.2 and it will be better.

No. With a 1000 Euro account and 1:100 leverage the max position you can open is 100,000 Euro. 1 Lot is 100,000 units of Euro BUT as commission is $5.5 per lot this will reduce your account to just below 1000 Euro so you will not be able to open 1 Lot in practice.

Bingo. You are right!
