u guys want real figures? Here it is. I played with 10 or so demo accounts with a bunch of brokers for a couple weeks then I thought I was the shit.... Until I opened a real account. (rolls eyes) Yeah = 1st micro account deposited 65 dollars.. lost it all but 6 bucks in a matter of 4 days. 2nd micro account with another broker deposited 100 dollars got a 20% bonus so 120 in 3 weeks brought it up $356 and change then lost most of it... 3rd micro account back to the first broker i used initially,deposited 300 and I have 267 left in that account...
then i went back to demo then thought i was king shit again (rolls eyes again..)
deposited $3000cad in a small account said f my life risked 80% on all trades ended up with $7 356 in a couple of hours ( i got lucky and the market shot up right when i entered long and i just sat and watched)
then greed took over and 2 days later my 9k drained in 2 trades to a $900 balance
then i smartened up and went to babypips school and studied and now with 5k deposit i'm making about 350-500 a week. consistently now for a month... it's paying for my txtbooks and gas and movie tickets.. while my other part time wal mart job allows me to save good change while i go to school.
