Manual is best

I completely agree with you. manual trading is the best option for mr\e to make money from this market through the live account.

Yes. Manual trading is the best option to make money form this market.

I liked how you’ve put your trades out in the open for others to refer to and contribute accordingly.

I never liked EAs, although my broker is offering such if interested. I do enjoy manual trading where I can allow to express myself in term of trading for the profits, lot size, and many more.

Agreed! For me too, manual trading is better, still it can vary from trader to trader.

'I consider manual trading because all my losses will be mine. I currently trade with short positions with the smallest lot size to minimize risk.

Though I can't, make a lot of money I will at least not lose everything if something goes wrong.'

Agreed. Self trading is best and can give you satisfaction when you make the profit and giving you better experience

Yes, manual trading can be good for people who are used to it and like taking control over their trades. Automated trading is also a good option if you think about it.

Automatic trading has its advantages, but manual trading also prevails with these advantages, because there is an opportunity at any time to navigate and control trading independently.

You can either trade manually or go for automated trading. It is your decision in the end and you can also try both and see what suits you better. Good luck to you.

How many traders here are only into automated trading?

There are a number of traders who are in automated trading. Maybe they find it very easy or they are having good profits from it.

It is very important to have a positive mindset in trading. There will be a loss, but to cover this loss, you have to maintain a positive mindset. Never be afraid. It is not possible to trade with fear and greed.

I think the ones who prefer algo trading over manual are mostly the newbies who are still learning and needing help.

That can be the possibility. But I think one should do both like me. They should balance out because automated trading might help you but manual trading will give you experience. And I also think that you need a good broker for this or else you’ll get more confused. You can select from Oanda, Turnkeyforex or Pepperstone. They provide you with both manual and automated trading options and are easy to work with too.

I agree! I haven’t got myself to trade using an automated system and manual seems to do the work just fine. It gives me all the control and that kind of works out fine for me. I mean I am not at all against using EAs but manual is somewhat better in my opinion.

Yes. Manual trading helps a trader to gain a lot of knowledge.

Yes manual trading is best. You can't trust on robot as market doesnt follow same pattern. To learn trading there is no alternative to manual trading.
