over 7,000 pips in 20 day of trading
real account

now over 9,000 pips equity

It's easy to make thousands of pips on a $60 account. Hold and hope + smallish account and only few weeks of history is not the perfect background for a money manager.

tHAT===too he has deposites 58 cents and mad it to 1.50 dollars in Instaforex and he want us to give real dollars accounts .
I can give him mi 1 dollar real account which shows in instabroker as 100

I want to rich 1,000$ in 6 month from 58$

my account not have 58 cents
real deposit 58$
and now $144.87 equity

Not a bad start. Hmm, I never made more then 600 pips a month. Good luck with your endeavour.
Anybody bet $10 on the outcome? Can he make it? Just please, bet only if you're still here in 6 months time. I've won the bet on Vassiliios but the guy who said Vass would blow his account has disappeared like a fart in a windstorm. Shame.

When you reach the $ 500 increase stake and trade with 0.03 size.

There is big difference between trading $150 and $150 000. Similar experiments are very misleading due to completely different emotional status of the trader. When 1 pip is 1 cent you can risk much more and much easier, but if 1 pip is 1k... different story. That's why demo and small account do not represent the reality.

And there you have it in a nutshell. Therein lies the truth.

Hi Solar,

This is not so true if trade using EA. EA has no emotion at all. No matter 1pip = 1cent or 1pip = 10 dollars it will be totally same for computer (EA).

I 95% agree on that but I have the impression this is manual trading. 5% is against it because even though the EA is w/o emotions, there's always a man with emotions behind every EA out there. I've been trading my account with EA and fairly large lot sizes and all I can say is I didn't sleep well. Anyway, emotions due to trade size could vary a lot depending on the general wealth conditions of the trader but you know what I'm talking about. 0.5 trade lot size could be much to me but it could be nothing to someone with $1 000 000 account.
But come on, $58.5 is $58.5, close to nothing. No matter how much you risk the most you can lose is $58.5(close to nothing). Therefore the trader's behaviour could very risky due to the negligible ammount of money that can be lost. That's why I consider these results do not represent the true capabilities(both technical and emotional) of the trader.

but if I go from $ 58 to $ 1000

If this, if that..
Even if you can do it that doesn't mean you can perform the same way with let's say $58 500 to $1 000 000.
My point is that $58.5 is pocket money. Even if you lose it the single consequece is that you're out of money for the day, therefore you could trade much riskier because you don't care.
BUT let's presume that $58 500 is all the money you have and if you lose it, you lose your house, your family's good life ecc.
WOULD YOU TRADE THE SAME WAY IN THAT CASE?

I increased the size to 0.02.

How is the result!

results are good
