Who can earn 100% return a month with a DD below 50% and on a regular basis? in General Dec 18, 2015 at 02:02

Everything is possible in forex trading, there are actually no limits to the upside or to the the downside. It all comes down to our own risk tolerance and what kind of risk we are willing to take when trading. Demo trading is just that, illusionary money at stake and the perfect instrument to test different strategies and to learn the platform. When it comes to live trading we put our strategies out there with the real market, and our real money. It is another ball game altogether so to speak , but with the knowledge behind us that the testing is done, it gives us some comfort and reassurance...

Who can earn 100% return a month with a DD below 50% and on a regular basis? in General Dec 10, 2015 at 01:14

FXtrader2010, you are so right about the 5% target profit per month. To set up an account protection around that figure is very wise. Doing it will bring down the total risk per trading day. It also will bring down the risk percentage taking on individual trades. Patient is required as you say but it can pay out handsomely at the end of the year.

I have great trading skills but I lost million dollars... in Experienced Traders Dec 10, 2015 at 00:06

To be in control of bad trading days one has to have proper account protection. Down days are part of the whole and they will 100% surface even if there are long streaks of winning days. Predefined protection is needed for the account. The question is how to set up such a protection, that will actually work for the trader?Account protection on a daily base should be defined before the trading day starts. The trader can set a limit of loss for the day, taking into consideration the account size and the trader's risk tolerance. To give an example 2-4% loss for the day of the account, if it...

DEMO ACCOUNT vs LIVE ACCOUNT in New Traders Dec 06, 2015 at 01:24

I agree with Jaco Ferreira. The best thing to trade others money may be on a commision based account. The account might still be in the name of the funder but the external trader handling the trades gets a commision on the trades made. The question is what kind of a return is expected to be received to the trader, trading the account? A general rule is 30-40% if the account makes a profit, and if it makes a loss nothing will be given back to the trader. The trading however has to be very regulated with RMM features whatever account and platform is used to trade on.RMMRobot.com is heavely into ...

I want only a safe 4% each month... Which EA?? Thank you in Experienced Traders Dec 06, 2015 at 00:43

With a leverage bigger then 1:100 does not imply you are actually gambling. It all depends on how your backup security is when it comes to risk & money management. A 1:500 leverage can be totally OK if you have the proper protection in place.

What is your daily target?? in Experienced Traders Oct 30, 2015 at 01:36

AlphaInfinity, if you do not have a daily target maybe a weekly one is more appropriate according to your trading system. It is definitely very important to have some kind of a goal setup so the EA or the cBot (depending on the platform used) can be customized within the prefered goal frame. I will agree with you that a daily setup is very uncertain and it will fluctuate but a weekly one or even a monthly one can be more accurate to use depending on the strategy at place. There can also be several strategies like one weekly and one monthly intervened to give a more solid protection in the long...

Trader or Gambler? in New Traders Oct 28, 2015 at 21:16

Cool, I will read up on it. The question is will more accounts give more protection as you say then a single account? Too early to tell until I read more about it.. :).

Trader or Gambler? in New Traders Oct 28, 2015 at 20:59

CrazyTrader I can understand your euphoria at the moment, if you are ahead. The thing is that it will not always go your way. The market changes, we do too, and ups and downs will be a part of the over all trading. Why not be at peace and except the inevitable of the fact that this is what trading is all about, ups and downs will happen and we have to be in control and cool in the down turn moments and the same goes when we are ahead of course. Protect our self and minimize losses when we are down and lock in profits when we are having a very positive period in our trading.

Trader or Gambler? in New Traders Oct 28, 2015 at 20:22

Regardless if we are labeled as traders or gamblers, protecting the account is the primary goal and sound RMM to be able to survive in the long run is needed. Now way around the fact that every successful gambler or trader will confirm this as a corner stone in their path to success.

NEW Traders beware the EASY ROAD to riches! in New Traders Oct 26, 2015 at 23:45

There are no easy roads for new traders! There is a middle road that can eventually be turned into an easy road! The question is how to go about it, to get there? Education, demo account trading, reading and learning about RMM ( risk & money management ). Starting small and growing it into bigger account with patient and time. Practising different instruments and trading platforms. To have a humble understanding on how the market works and how our own intellect works also will contribute to our goal to master the market place. Google for rmm robot or rmmrobot, will give you some valuable l...

Trader or Gambler? in New Traders Oct 26, 2015 at 22:42

What is your daily target?? in Experienced Traders Oct 24, 2015 at 04:26

A good daily target is around 3% profit and then an equity stop on 1% profit after that. If the trading suddenly happen to go against you, then there is still enough profit to end the trading day in a positive way. How much this is in pips is of no concern as long as the positive percentage is upheld against the finale balance of the day. More ideas on this way of trading can be had by searching on google on the RMM Robot.

EUR/USD in Experienced Traders Oct 23, 2015 at 22:37

Wow! What a turnaround on the eur/usd. The question is, is the usd currency that much ahead of the euro in value?. At the moment it seems like that. Next week can be to be a totally different story when it comes to the eur/usd. As traders we have to be prepared that it can change very quickly. Protecting our self with good trading ethics and basics rmm strategies is a good choice at the moment. I read some very good info on this site about protection the trading account, can be googled with RMM Robot and valuable information will be available.

DEMO ACCOUNT vs LIVE ACCOUNT in New Traders Oct 23, 2015 at 21:22

worldwide11, it all depends on the broker you are using. If it is a strict market maker broker instead of an ECN broker I would say that the performance of a demo account is better compared to a live account. ECN brokers is in my opinion do not differ that much between a demo account and a live account. Slippage can of course be somewhat more on a live account but on the whole an ECN broker is more reliable then a market maker broker when it comes to demo accounts vs live accounts.

DEMO ACCOUNT vs LIVE ACCOUNT in New Traders Oct 17, 2015 at 00:26

kieran, I have been test trading a lot of demo accounts when building strategies and cBots. My experience is that demo accounts do not differ that much compared to live accounts. I worked mostly on the cTrader platform and mt4 might differ somewhat in this regard when it comes to the accuracy between a live and a demo account. Anyways RMM ( risk and money management ) should be a priority whatever platform one is using. RMM Robot is easily searched on Google to get more info on this so important subject.

I want only a safe 4% each month... Which EA?? Thank you in Experienced Traders Oct 10, 2015 at 03:15

A safe 4%? It can NOT be guaranteed! Does not exist but it is a very good outlook and just the understanding to have the trading knowledge, the experience and the knowhow that is required to get this kind of a return, it will give the trader an edge and will open up the possibilities of getting an even greater return on their investment.

DEMO ACCOUNT vs LIVE ACCOUNT in New Traders Mar 27, 2015 at 21:10

Ben I agree, that is why we can not let individuals EA's to be in totally control of our trading accounts. I am of the belief that a separate EA or robot or cBot, which ever the platform one is trading on, has to have a separate "RMM Robot", risk & money management algorithm running that is dedicated solely for the purpose of protection our invested funds. Markets will change as it always has, we have to protect our self the best we can for these unpredictable moves that the market does.

EURUSD	1.0744	GBPUSD	1.24866	AUDUSD	0.65733
