Hi Dredding,

just move the zipper left (below the chart- or go to the details). It is broken because I have withdrawn my money.
What concernes linking to my account - it would not be the best idea - looking at the posts below - I am below everage results.

Best,

Peter
If you made such great returns all the time...WHY WITHDRAW? why not compound your gains over and over again!?..Well you get what i am saying...if it took you months or years to become profitable and make the returns you what...why would you want some mofo you dont know and never have talked to or met making the same returns as you because your too lazy to type in a couple lines of numbers in a spreadsheet or just open the "Account History" in your OWN platform and save it .....

And btw...your last trades on both trade explorers are all over a month old...some 13+ weeks old!

I feel obliged to answer here as the questions had been asked,

I have to change the broker because of lack of liquidity during the night hours especially on gold, and some communication problems I live in Europe and the broker in Australia,

what concernes so great returns as You call them - my serious concern is that they are too big - I mean I do overtrade and I have to work on this issue,

why not compound your gains over and over again!?.

I will try ro continue of course on the new acc. when it is finally established.

You mean somebody copying my trades ? - if yes, there are many options at trader explorer to hide money or trades or both.
For me, trade explorer is a great tool with all the statistics and real time chart of my equity, so while trading I can mange my trades while seeing my acc. chart.


And I have to add one thing to one of the previous posts. I do not belive that people who run the FF could behave the way You suspect.
And I belive that there are many more experienced traders within the forum to follow or simply hire than me. I do trust FF is a serious partner.

Not exactly, If You go to the live account trade list, You will find the last trade dated on 30th of August.

All those reports are outlandish. I think 150-250 Pips per month is reasonable.

This breaks down to about 35-50 per week.

Or, for you mathematically challenged, about 7-10 per day

Compounding trading profits just ensures that after a big run your next round of trades will wipe out your profits. You need to be running a regressive position sizing model on both sides. So, as your account goes up because of a nice string of profitable trades (statistically abnormal), your position size is going down. And vice versa, on a long string of losses (statistically abnormal), you should be increasing position size.

Problem is, this is hard to do because of psychology. When you are hot, you won't want to scale back and when you are cold, you want to pull back. Do the opposite. As long as you have a statistical edge (proven record), this will be the best.

i thought most people would handle it the other way around. When winning, they bet less (for fear of losing what they have) and betting more when losing just to get back losses.

Hell i'm no shrink, but i always believe that you need to compound your position, when you're on the money. But i agree on the fact that sooner or later you will get into a tough spot and elminate few sessions of gains. But i guess that's where you need to reduce the position and allow your edge to pick itself up again.

Hi eflem,

I try to never change the rule of 2 %
According to what I have learned it is proven that stable percentage can help to keep the psychics stable in hot and cold situations.
The oposite would be the behaviour of more of a gambler than a trader - I think,

They only seem "outlandish" to you because you can not and have not ever made those kind of returns! Here is a shot of just the profits i made today. Im sure i would have made more this week if i would have not been SICK! I know tons of guys/gals on the Freebie System thread and a few other system threads that make killer profits/pips/% gain.....what ever you want to call it. The best part...THEY USE PROPER MONEY MANAGEMENT and DO NOT TRADE WITH EMOTIONS!!

So you keep shooting for ONLY 150-250 per month, 35-50 per week or 7-10 pips per day...But when your ready to get of the porch and run with the big dogs.....let me know! lol

And for you mathematically challenged, about 11.6%(325 PIPS!!) just today LMAO!

Even though i diss like hipcio...hes right! You should only adjust your position sizes on the quality of the trade. If it is a high probability trade then i will risk more. If it is a low probability trade i risk less. I never and will NEVER risk more when i am in a losing streak in hope my "luck" will turn around....

The memeber you replied to said the same thing you did(bet big when losing,small while winning)...but i guess your on a beach some where drunk by now this time on a FRIDAY! lol

And this is just for sh*ts and giggles...but here is a account statment from my platform...just for this week to show i keep my DD 5% or lower while compounding my gains.. The one big dip was not a losing trade, i made a small withdraw from my account since it is friday and i have single stripper moms to support! lol

** I do not show my lots or profit because how much i make is no ones bussiness but my own and the US government! lol**

Yes, I have taken it into account but, now I would rather go other way, I will try to take less trades, only high probability with stable 2%.
This distnguishing the quality of trades while trading and giving them stars and charging them with right % is too much for me to be well done in my stage of
experience. Although, I do not say it is a bad solution.

I run a small account, I've been getting around 35 - 45% per month from stock trading.

I get a little less from forex however I've only been in the forex since January. My goal is to get to 50% per month so that I can quit the stock trading and live off my forex earnings solely. At present I'm 18% per month from manual trading and 12% from my EA's. My worst month was 12.6% in March from manual trading. So far no losing months in the forex however.....

I did loose 12% in the stock market around january, probably the most unlucky moment of my life, 2 companies I held stocks in delisted in the same week and another 2 had abysmul earnings. Basically that month I never paid myself as "punishment". Apart from that I've not had a loosing month.

I don't compound earnings simply because I like to keep my account small so I get good fills, that's a little tip from my broker there, don't russle their feathers too much and they'll let you make a decent living. Keep your account small and don't give your broker any 50 lot heart attacks!

As for do I think this can be a real job, yes, I've been trading since 2008 and it's afforded me a relatively comfortable life.

I was joking about 50 lots, what I meant was don't push high lots on your account as this might cause your broker to start messing with your trades.

The broker I use is GoMarkets, so far no problems with them, apart from a few server disconnects. I rarely go above .5 lots trading my account.

I have been trading forex over a year now, still a newbie I guess. Reading this thread I can't help but wonder if all you guys making good profits are using your own top secret ninja trading systems or have you bough a system that actually works? I have tried a lot of different crap, haven't seen anything consistent yet.
