I booked them the same day. It's easier to sleep. haha yep it really took a tool emotionally, and that's why I'm an EA trader but watching the EU going down down down down and not riding the trend was too frustrating. The next time I deactivate the ...

I lost money during the huge move

I trade daily, hourly, 30 minutes, 5 minutes, 1 minute and 10-sec chart. GMT wise, my favorite hours are 7-12 (london session), 13-18 (american session) and 0-3 (asian session). Favorite pairs : EU, EJ for intraday and AJ for long term interest ...

1000+ pip market moves...hope everyone got it

Wide spreads - Should this be acceptable?

They are somehow too reliable because during newstime or weekends, the spread widens by A LOT (10 pips or more) and that can take out your stop-loss while the price won't be hit on the chart. It's logical but it can be unsettling. There is another ...

1 month later, you're even more methodical than before, congrats haha up 180% since monday ? that's quite a performance but that's just demo and you shouldn't try to do it live. But I guess you already knew that

College student learning to run with the Big Boys

That's sad You have a great equity curve except for these negative spikes. They are mainly due to emotional overcharge (my guess) and you could try to use an EA (or a FxSpyder robot) that will cancel any trade you take if the daily loss is higher ...

Would it be too much trouble to pay me back my $20,000, my sexy darling?

Dealbook 360 is a very bad platform. Very slow, takes a lot of memory, and orders are weirdly executed.

GFT - opinions??

Ronald Raygun claims to have do it. But he is using like 40 EAs that he made.

Does anyone know of a profitable robot?
