The reason I am starting this is to prove how few of you can actually make a profit, even when trading with solid risk management. It is also to perhaps trigger a light bulb moment in your head, so that you may become a profitable trader someday.

Nobody in the world makes more than 50 basis points a day over a period of 10+ years (some have done so with high leverage, but not for very long) so we should call our self basis point traders. In this thread we can discuss trading strategy and money management techniques, and trade setups as well.
Live explorer is required if you are going to post a trade. Monthly draw down cannot exceed 5% or you are disqualified.
I will be starting a new live account that my 10 year old son is going to trade. Starting with $5,000. Can you beat him?
I of course use a broker that is ideal and probably has much better spreads/commissions than yours, but he is a child with little LIVE experience.
