This account will be closed, moving it to ATC brokers and following my main technique which I have a PAMM on. Adios Amigos! :)

why traders hide their records history? dans Général Sep 21, 2010 at 12:18

I think a key difference is scalping has serious limitations when exposing your broker, technique etc...However, if you are doing something that requires more discretionary trading, then everything is ok.This reminds me of a thread on FF about leverage. Most people on this thread said anything over 1:10 or 1:50 is rediculous and not needed. I think the key thing we need to understand is that we all don't trade the same way and that is why the differences in exposure most likely. :)Kenny has a good point, but I know Kenny is an honest, giving person. How many of those are on here? So I...

Kenny,Can you send me the link to the forum off-thread? Anything you find worth doing is worth a look. :)I agree, and my judgement is strictly my own and my own perspective. I understand completely as the more traders that come into a technique can also kill your edge.I am more or less defending the curiosity of prospective (REAL) investors and people hiding stuff. There are a lot of criminals in every business, and it seems especially high in this one, so I appreciate some policing to save people their $$$... :)There are too many people on here who do add no value and just want to copy w...

Kenny,You are definitely giving, no doubt, it shows in your actions. I agree that keeping trade history may be in your best interest, especially hiding it from your broker as they are definitely working against you. Or, if your system is 100% non-discretionary, then of course, you do not want it copied. Or, if you business is to sell trading strategies through wrapping them up etc... To each their own... :) But, MOST PEOPLE don't fit that criteria and struggle with the concept of 'the pie is big enough'. :) Although, I have yet to see any of the "100% non-discretionary...

I disagree and agree with you. :)You have a good point. If you are not marketing for investors, then if a specific investor wants more info, great, give it to them! However, the mindset of 'someone else will steal my hard work' is one of limiting beliefs. The silver platter comment is always an interesting one and I believe it shows something about you personally about scarcity thinking. There is more than enough pie for everyone. Even if your system was the greatest on the earth (which I highly doubt), than 99% wouldn't be able to execute it unless you are a complete and bum...

Ok, the experiment is coming to an end. I will keep a small amount of $ in this account to trade only USDJPY until further notice. Winding down trades now.I think it could withstand, but for 6% monthly return, I believe the risk could be just too high in my opinion. Plus, I am making 10+% on my other semi-auto system that I am going to do a PAMM with and I would like my focus on that. This was fun, and doable, just no time to manage it. :)gil

I moved this over last week to produce 2 X 50.00 baskets for about 20 currencies.This means, when it hits 50.00 it blows up. The last 2 weeks were quite volitile and I decided that I will also end my 100.00 basket test for now on a smaller account. So, for now, I will continue testing this until it reaches -200.00 total (1800.00) equity and see what happens. For this to work, we need a ranging period! :) haha...I will probably end this at some point and just convert my main account to a 50.00 basket account if it is profitable and increase the lot amounts. So, really instead of a 50.00 bas...

How long would you say is 'long term'?I think a lot of people could do it, but they either A) are doing it and don't want anyone to know it B) get bored and make changes with it C) sabotage themselves because of itI do believe 5-10% is easily achievable as I have had the fortune to experience 10%+ per month on a semi-manual system I have been trading off a thread in Forex Factory. I have only been doing it for 5+ months though, but the starter of the thread has been doing it for a lot longer. I think what happens is YES, you will have a bad month (NO MATTER WHAT) and that bad mo...

That is what I thought from the FF posts, but just checking. Looking good my friend! :) I am up 9.3% on the account from this week. It was a tough week though. Made a few mistakes, but recovered from all but 1.gil

Contest for real accounts yet? dans Boîte à suggestions Sep 18, 2010 at 04:05

How about an Ante up fee....Everyone who wants to join the contest chips in 50.00....50% to winner, 35% to 2nd place, 20% to 3rd and 5% to myfxbook.com for handling it...Get committments first to show the interest level and projected prize, then set a minimum from fallout and then you don't need a sponsor.I realize in the world of 'no risk, I will trade only your account, your money or demo only please..' that this may not work...I would be up for the fun. :) Beats buying an EA that doesn't work or only works with current market conditions from some fuzzy haired programmer wh...

I was reading the forum a bit on the micro grid and I did do a quick live test using Micro-Grid settings. Actually about -250.00 that I have lost in the last 1.5 weeks started as micro grid settings, but I changed them half-way through as I was getting killed.I haven't thought about the 10 different variations with low and high volatility... Interesting concept.I am amazed at how much this market is continuing to move. FX always amazes me.. :)Tell me how it goes! I am loving my 10.00 basket thus far and the 5.00 has some interesting prospects as well.If you look at my 10.00 basket (de...

Blessings V3_7-6 #2 dans Systèmes de Trading Sep 17, 2010 at 03:26

My 100.00 baskets I am shutting down... I have about 5 currencies that are all about to hit. I will close them all as promised at 100.00, or I may just move cash over and close them out.I think doing them off the 1M doesn't work as well when market runs hard, but better when ranging of course...Gil
