I will be starting this on Monday, pairs I will be trading eur/gbp and eur/usd ,its going to be pretty tough E17 margin, min stop loss is E5 ,that's on eur/usd.On eur/gbp its E17 margin and E6.65 min stop loss, ideally it should be around 1.5-2% but I did say we would stick to the minimum opening balance of E100, just got to be very selective of our trades with high rewards/deviations.

Sounds good on paper...but...
Do you have a trading plan that you´ve practiced on a Demo which you will use and take this seriously.--- disaster awaits...sorry due...
But if its just for fun and the bet is who will pay for next strippers in vegas then I´m up for it..! Take me there...you know, just to make sure he pays up!!
But if its a serious thing you gonna use to eventually take Forex seriously, likely to go bellyup.

Yes there is a trading plan, Make as much money as possible, if I beat 5% a month I will be doing better than most hedge funds, I will explain the plan as I go along, obviously before trades are taken, I don't want to give to much away at this stage, this is for entertainment purposes, but all trades will be live. We cant be thinking about strippers while trading, that's for end of month. Don't get too excited here we are trading FX, losses will be part of the game but how long can we stay in the game.

Hi @snapdragon1970! How do you handle the challenge?
Good entry points, low risk high reward trades, move stoploss to break even point when appropriate, play on some intra day behaviour too...etc.

Live trading is:
It is working hard, being clear on the goals, studying the trade with caution and taking care of every move when it comes to trading because we do not want to eat serious mistakes. That is Live trading.

I think Forex trading is not for making challenges, if it is a demo account there is no problem, but live you can lose a lot, better if you take it seriously.
