threei replied Aug 24, 2013Millionaires? This guy claims he does 100% - 150% a week. If you started with a $1000 and "only" did 50% a week you would have $1,434,648,375,481.61 in one year. Almost 1.5 trillion dollars. Maybe he exaggerated just a little, so he'll only be worth ...

threei replied May 22, 2013I agree with you R2R. People don't realize what good timing you need to use 1:2 rr. Even making it more difficult, most people are trading on 5min, 15min, and 30 min charts with sub 30 point stops. In theory 1:2+ rr is the ideal way trade. In ...

threei replied May 20, 2013Thanks for the link 60mm. It shows that traders are right about 60% of the time, but their rr is roughly 2:1 so they are losing. All they need to do is let their profits run and they would be successful right? But, how low would their winning ...

threei replied May 20, 2013It very well could be discipline, but I don't know and neither do you. We have no idea what rr people are closing trades, and no broker that I know of supplies that type of data. Do you have a link you would like to share?

threei replied May 10, 2013The problem is most are unable to think in probabilities. I have a friend who his a professional sports bettor. He will tell you he has no idea who is going to win a game. What he will tell you is that he expects a 3% return on his money over the ...

threei replied May 8, 2013SP wouldn't consider that a test of the daily low since he marks his highs and lows at midnight est. Most of the time it doesn't matter since it's rare for Asia/Australia to put in a new high or low, but it's been happening lately.

threei replied May 7, 201320 pips at 50:1 is 10% risk per trade. 3 losers in a row you are down to 70% of your capital, 5 in a row ( and I assure you that it will happen) you have now lost half your account.

threei replied May 7, 2013At 60% win rate you will have plenty of times where you lose 3 trades in a row. Now lets say you risk 20% of your account on each trade, 3 losers in a row you are now down to 40% of your capital.

threei replied May 7, 2013I would say hardly anyone is cut out to be a trader. There are plenty of profitable methods, most people will find a way to screw them up. Picking the trades they like instead of taking all the set-ups, moving stops to b/e too soon, abandoning the ...

threei replied Apr 26, 2013Supply area GBP/JPY 4hr. The 1hr gives a much clearer picture of the area. Would have been a better trade if I didn't manage it like a monkey on crack. Still was able to get about 2.5:1 rr. image

threei commented Apr 25, 2013Authorities ? Forex is an OTC market, there are no authorites. If they want to sell e/u and then make announcement that drives the price down they can. If they want to front-run customer orders, they can do that also. Welcome to forex.

threei replied Apr 24, 2013The thing about trading is that it rewards randomly over the short term. You can take a good set up and it loses. You can take a poor trade and end up with a great result. You have to look at the long term. Just because a trade loses does not ...
