At first I thought it would be but its actually not that bad because it's research I'm doing myself. When I look at a prop firm its the first section I look for, I write down two or three questions for clarification about their trading conditions, ...

prop firm new model - my trading journey

I wouldn't say "just more detailed", I would say done completely better, haha. Because he still uses word like "well their fee is high so I consider this a con". Lol. I'm not referring to fees at all. I'm talking about the structure of them. The ...

Could help me pass the time. Though I've never done anything like that before. Any recommended software? I think an unbiased perspective is good. Cause on one side you have these people who think everything is negative but selling something or ...

prop firm new model - my trading journey

I've been thinking about doing a youtube series just going though the prop firms. Their pros, cons, what type of strategies might benefit or not work. And the fine print of it. But from a completely unbias position. Not promoting or negatively of ...

I'm not ignoring anything. I clearly said there are beginners who come and speak like experienced traders and the experienced traders here can spot it. This one sentence acknowledges both experienced/good traders and beginners. . I ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

I mean price basically settled at the end of a 100 pip move. Thats the slippage essentially because we'll all have different numbers depending on where your SL was within the the candle.

I think this is a strength of the5ers, because sometimes you do have to step back and look at it objectively. Anything can cause a trade loss, but I'd expect them to be a bit more malleable if it had caused an objective failure. For which squawk ...

I could honestly tell because you are talking as if demo and live are the same, they are not the same. They closely resemble in price, but they do not resemble in execution, whether its market execution, pendings, tp, or SL. I'll give you an ...

No, it's not naive to think they are reliable. It's naive to think the broker has that much control. The technology should be reliable. Which is what this was, because it's a demo, so not market conditions. I see where you're trying to go, but your ...

Not to insult you but that's a true beginner response. I don't choose how many lots. The lots are chosen by the percent risk and distance of the stop loss. And even that has nothing to do with the base claim. So this has NOTHING to do with my risk ...

I'm not saying slippage doesn't exist. Read my post thoroughly to help you understand. When rules are implemented to prevent someone from capitalizing on slippage because "you don't get realistic execution on a DEMO" vs a live account, but when it's ...

FTMO - For serious traders

This is very true. Before COVID I would go to different FX expos, see what what was going on in the space, but also to meet other traders. I would fly out there, go to the expo for half a day, at night meet a few traders, we would go get street ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

It caught quite a few of us. I think the majority of my post on here show I'm quite risk conscious, so let me show you my week BEFORE that GBP move. And why I had a small issue with it. image I had to restart my 100k challenge, didn't fail any ...

Gotcha. I know it affects you psychologically at the least. Can also cause changes in the way indicators are calculated. Hope its not having a major effect on your trading until they fix it.

For me its server time 10:05, but yes, it disappears for 20 minutes again. So looking at history for you, it does this every day at the exact same time. Send them a message about it. I think its their LP, they'll need to contact them. Something is ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

Actually, I made that claim AFTER you already tried to use my account to prove a case for random. And I even said afterwards that me making more has nothing to do with making you, or me correct. I followed that up by saying YOU, Rick, being ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

Which is why I ignored it. If I was calling myself a godly trader, promoting classes for pay etc, yeah, i'd be here posting my account. But I'm not, just having, or was trying to have a intellectual conversation. The fact that it went over his head ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

And you are more than free to see me that way. Like I said, I'm not here to prove anything to you. But whats great is you thinking me not showing you my account proves your point of random or not. Trying to draw attention to something else, haha, ...

What I learned after losing $300,000 trading forex

You can see it that way as well. Makes no difference. I said we can agree to disagree in the beginning, you just haven't come up with a plausible idea to spark a constructive debate. And I don't need to prove anything to you. I'm on a forum having a ...
