WHO trades forex for more than 10 years and keeps making regular profits

Risk setting of EAs would remain consistent across accounts, ie. starting Lots 0.01, strategy parameters, etc.

so Account#1 will have 19x times risk of account#1?

Yes, Account#1 would have 19x risk of Account#19 (basically).

I would like to ask if there is a forex trader more than 10 years old and still generate regular profit here ?
I'm sorry to ask this
because I see the portfolio of several forex winners here on other contests they lose a lot, inconsistent
my opinion for long term 100% forex traders must have lost
therefore many brokers give a lot of bonuses
please let me know if my opinion is wrong
😐

some of people want to trade long time but many people want big profit but dont known a risk
i think is best for long term trading is have :
profit consistent and no risk of floating
many people want to make money started with small capital till big or huge capital.
how the ea can be provide this we must known the answer.
i think all want to investing big money on good trader or good ea.

let me answer the classic problem on trading.
need ea or trading strategy have specification below :
- profit consistent and enought profit
- low drawdown and got stop loss minimum so margin call is never touch

thank you all, if any false on my word i am so sorry and please forgive me

regards,

so is there some level when you switch from high risk to low risk trading?

I plan to graduate risk across my accounts in the following method:
Account 1: $1000
Account 2: $2000
Account 3: $3000
Account 4: $4000
Account 5: $5000
Account 6: $6000
Account 7: $7000
Account 8: $8000
Account 9: $9000
Account 10: $10,000
Account 11: $11,000
Account 12: $12,000
Account 13: $13,000
Account 14: $14,000
Account 15: $15,000
Account 16: $16,000
Account 17: $17,000
Account 18: $18,000
Account 19: $19,000

Risk setting of EAs would remain consistent across accounts, ie. starting Lots 0.01, strategy parameters, etc.

Risk can also be mitigated by scaled implementation of new systems, where a graduated process is followed prior to full implementation of any system across all accounts. I did not follow this process and my greed and haste cost me dearly.

For example:

1. Rigorously Backtest new EA on Historical Data until satisfied of performance;
2. Complete successful Forward testing on Demo;
3. After x period, commence EA on Account 1;
4. After x period, commence EA on Account 2;
5. After x period, commence EA on Account 3;
...
21. After x period, commence EA on Account 19;

where 'x period' is an arbitrary measure of time, such as a week or month.

'Success in trading requires calculated risk, measured gains, and tempered emotions.'

I do trade near that time since 2011, but im a system developer 2009

I noticed , stability is one and only thing matters.
If you have this point of view, it means you look serious and you count it as a business not a game.

try to make simple, dont make difficult your trading self with complicate strategy
even for now to much impact politic fundamental, most of them make make fake all analisy technical too

soo this is the way to find another think strategy, like whats to handle trade this climate with smart strategy too

Been trading forex for 6 years, been making consistent profit for 1.5 years. Forex takes time.

Since we have both been rekt from flash crashes, what are you doing differently?

Oh, and:
7) Diversification is BAD; just because a system can work on 28 pairs, does not mean it should be used on 28 pairs. Sure it can multiply results and give some guarantee to returns, but it also adds exposure to every market event, and movements can be multiplied across other pairs of the same currency. It only took two currencies for me to gain 800% and 1000%: it is better to focus on a few currencies and limit your exposure to risk events.

'The most successful investors don't diversify. Rather, they FOCUS (Follow-One-Course-Until-Successful) and specialize. They get to know the investment category they invest in and how the business works better than anyone else.'
(Robert Kiyosaki, American businessman and author)

“Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.”
(Warren Buffett, American business magnate, investor, speaker and philanthropist)

Great advice. I enjoy seeing the quotes of successful businessmen in relation to what you have learned.

Yes, unfortunately lots of new traders do not have patience and need to understand that mastering forex takes time.

Not Just Long Trade, But Need Known how much Profit perdays, permonths, and Drowdown, so we can choose the ea for buy or follow......

Hey guys,

I started trading a year ago and have had some success recently. I started tracking my trading about two months ago. Only manual trades with some algos in development. This account started on 10k and I want to get it to 20k safely (risk managed).

All the best,
Aardall

Started on 2006. Still trading. Never give up spirit finally paid off. Profitable from 3 years ago. Going big this year.

Its a long jurney, most people dont expect it to be full of obstacles, failures, losses and more, but once those are overcome, you bet you will be in for the ride of your life. Sacrife and discipline pays up in the markets.

It is not strange if you keep trading forex for 10+ years because you are profitable.
Let me rephrase the question, is there anybody trading for 10+ years and still losing money?
I would like to know your motivation:)

That would be me! I started October 2008 and I am still struggling to make money.

But my motivation is that forex is the best business there is, and I know it is possible to make a living and retire from forex. Last year, I turned AUD$50,000 into AUD$13,000,000 in two months using high risk on CHFSGD and EURTRY, but on 3 January 2019 I lost 96% because of the Yen Flash Crash. I only withdrew AUD$80,000 for my mother, and I agree that greed was the major factor in my loss: I was earning AUD$100,000 per day and I didn’t want to stop.

Well, at least I can say “been there, done that.”
Though it would be nice to “be there” again... some day maybe...

I don't get how you can lose pretty much everything when you banked 13M...
