FXCM was my first broker 20 years ago where I started trading Forex. I’ve used them for about 3 years before I blowed up my account (actually my dad‘s money). It was my mistake. Made thousands of trades with them and never felt cheated at all. Then ...

They could also implement auto-liquidation for open trades that hit their drawdown limits and reaching end of the day time. Problems solved. Probably more to do again with that they don’t want traders to do well…

Do none of the futures props allow to hold positions overnight? I wouldn't say I'm not a day trader. So far, I've closed 99% of my trades before the end of the day, but I've also noticed that some of these trades could have generated 10-20x the ...

When do you know that you have a profitable system and then how do you know it won’t become no longer profitable the next day? Yes, it would be a lot of time wasted but I’m even more afraid of wasting more time trying to achieve a goal that many ...
