For higher timeframes, you give an example of trading by flipping a coin, and then for lower timeframes, you give an example of trading profitably with an edge. Is that a fair comparison? My point is that you can have a edge ...

Transition to full time trading (hopefully)

I'm not sure if you read the conversation I had with Ammaboss, but I never said it was based on pure luck. The problem I have with Ammaboss's view is that he said that result of trading from higher timeframes is based on "pure" luck. He believes ...

Wouldn't this be a clear example of how your style of trading on lower timeframes also cannot remove the "luck" variable entirely? Something to think about. I saw that you took down your demo trade explorer temporarily until you recovered some of ...

Short EC. A bit risky as I am doubling my exposure to a CAD pair when my CJ long is in drawdown, but it met my entry rules, so I'm pulling the trigger. If I lose both trades, I'll just cry a little and move on. H4 image

That's great. I hope that was a live account. Personally, statements don't mean much without proof to back it up. I understand what you mean by this. If you can come out positive with a 1.5 stoploss, you're saying it's really an edge for sure ...

Before "daring" any members to use their time and energy on such a challenge, wouldn't it be fair for you to be an example first? I was planning on keeping an eye on your journey, but it seems like you've already taken your first demo Trade ...

Well, I already gave you my opinion. An opinion is an opinion. Nothing more. Just do your thing and feel free to prove me wrong. I see that you created a new TE. I wish you the best.

I personally do not think it is worth trying to refine a strategy with a 1.5-pip stoploss. Even if you do somehow manage to profit consistently on a demo account, I have doubts it would work on a live account with slippage. Especially if you're ...

Newbie, My opinion wouldn't mean much here, but I just wanted say that I believe you know how to trade. Reading your journal from the beginning, at first I thought you were a bit shady (excuse my language ...

How to Beat the Market Makers at Their Own Game

Ohhh, silly me! I quickly assumed you didn't take any losses looking at that upward equity curve and max drawdown being 0.0%. Still, that doesn't make it any less impressive. Keep taking those bites one at a time.

My way to highway

Wow, wow, & wow again. I personally believe that accepting losses is crucial to trading. Traders who do not learn how to accept losses tend to make psychological mistakes such as revenge trading. That one loss can easily spiral into bigger ...

My way to highway

Wow. I have to say your entries are spot on. That is some crystal ball level trading right there. All of your trades have almost no drawdown which is hard to believe. Seeing how heavy you go in with multiple positions, I do have doubts about how ...

30% A Month

Looking at your trade explorer, I personally believe it would be okay for you to go live with a small account. If month after month, forward-testing continues to go as you expected, add a bit more capital over time. The reason why I believe it's ...

When to take your EA to a live account?

sp33dr4ge & Wavegarrick Thank you for sharing your thoughts. There is valuable information here. My thoughts do slightly differ about how "You need to enter every trade "knowing" your going to win... no excuses." If you have a profitable strategy, ...
