Also I'd like to know if you have 'last look' on MB Trading. My impression from trading on the platform is that you do.

Why not instead of doing it per order, you do it at the end of the day for the total volume of limit orders filled? Because say I put in 100 orders of 1000, because each 1000 order receives less than a penny, there will no pay for limits on this ...

The risk we WANT to take yes, but not the risk we take. The risk we actually take DOES have a lot to do with leverage. $10,000 account A) Someone risking 5% on a 10 pip stop B) Someone risking 5% on a 200 pip stop Risk seems the same, but it's not. ...
Reasonable leverage

Well anyone risking 5% on a 6-10 pip stop is naive. It's not unheard of, for price to gap more than 100 pips. It's unlikely, day to day, but over a career you can expect it to happen. If there is a central bank intervention, you might be kissing ...

Well this is just not true. The maximum number of losses can be anything you like, it can be 100. Given a fixed number of trades, you can estimate statistically, how many sequential losses you are likely to expect, but there can still be more ...

Do you not see the same things/signals on the higher timeframes as you do on the 1 min?

Yep of course. Still requires great skill. I'm not saying it would make someone profitable. But it might reduce their losses on really bad days.

Nothing wrong with 1min chart
Use it myself. Don't use it alone though, as I need to see the bigger picture too. But for fine tuning entries and early management of a position, 1 min is great.EURUSD

Not that I disagree that people do that. But if you're determining the success or failure of a general principle based on people not using stops, making bad entries and adding to losers, then pretty much every way of trading is going to lose. Not ...

Of course as you say, trend depends on your own definition of it, the timeframe you're looking at etc. The point is not that there is a 'correct' trend. There's no such thing. But that for a new trader, I believe they would be better off deciding on ...

Pros and Cons there. Yes ideally, just go with the market. But with that there's some danger. Plenty of new traders will get emotional, end up buying the high, selling the low, and losing more than an entire day's range trying to follow it. How many ...

Stop saying wrong when it is you that is wrong. Some brokers guarantee stop losses at the price, but no real market, no proper exchange guarantees this. Slippage is a reality. And the chances are, if your broker is giving you guaranteed stops, then ...
