OIL inective討論

Wow, you are trading 2 x 5,000,000 USD accounts.

Hi Cuong :)
No, I am trading only one account. Been taking same trades on both so, it doe snot make sense. Only takes my time as I have to manage same trade on both accounts. Until I have some the idea how to trade oil I will stick with Oil account and Oil 1 is just dormant.

Also, it is just demo :)
I am going to open live and trade $1000 , although, I believe $1000 is too little to trade oil with FXPrimus. $2-3K is a minimum.
with $1000 risk would be too big.

i think $1000 for oil trading should be fine with FXPRIMUS since it allows microlot on OIL too.

We can open position smaller than 0.10lot.. Just try to trade within 0.01-0.05 should be safe.

$0.1 per pip is a minimum. I think it is too much as oil is making 100 pips in 10-15 min.

No other broker offering the 'black gold' with better conditions? CFD maybe? Non-MT brokers like SaxoBank?
Sounds a bit scary to know in advance that it's too big, too risky. You could psych yourself out with those thoughts.

I had an idea about that 20% psych barrier .. set a custom date for your curve so it shows you have only 10% profit now ... and when you cross the 20% (as I have no doubt you will), you could remove it and shout 'I F...ING MADE IT' 😉

just crosssed 20% but closed my short too early again. it isallthis barrier messing my mind.
shorted from 97.50 and closed at 30 pips.it is already 90 down.

sorry no. my bad.i took this tarde on another account which is not here and which I amnot even trading.simply keep it at the office logged in this account to avoid anyone messing with my realone.what a stupid mistake.

Oh brother, that was a barmy move. Traded on the unused account? Must have been one of those freudian slips. Not slip of the tongue but the hand. No worries, you can do it.

no,I am at the office asI PMedyou and a lot of guys... so,I trade oilfrom here too and had to download MT4and then logged into my original and traded.then when leaving I logged out and it became another flat account.today,I forgot to log into my original. made 1%. so,i started thinking may be it is.the best way wouldhave been to withdaw 20% but as I cannot may be I willjust start trading new account. 4.5% this month already.

Ok, I decided. Account I have been trading so far is named Oil 20% a.
I feel that I was trading differently this week. Too tentative and too much thoughts about 20% level.
I guess it was a lucky coincidence that I actually made a couple of trades on that account which is at the office.
I called this account OIL 20% b continuation and I will trade this account now until I am hopefully another around 20% up.

another inactive will stay there inactive until I have some other idea how to trade oil.

I am not 10.24% up but 20,6% up. Please ignore full Report account and check my profile.
Otherwise i do not think there is anything to discuss here.
I have no system as other guys here do.
I am just trading and everything is on my thread in experienced traders Just Oil.

:) I have no idea how this happened but I did forget to log into original account and made those couple of trades. However I did do it fearfully... as I was thinking 20%. This is the highest I have brought account as I have never crossed 20% after I started controlling losses and risk. It is hard to trade with hard stops.
