  1. Well done. One trade. You've got another hundred thousand or so to go.

  4. Of course not! You can't plan on retiring if you use stops, silly!

  6. So in other words, you not only do not use stops, but you add to losing positions.

    An absolutely excellent strategy!

    Ok, well my goal is to make 20 million in 16 months, and im already 4 months in. Starting at 10k, and then doubling as soon as possible, hopefully every month.

    Using the ratio of 1 lot traded per 5k in my account, all i need per month is 500 pips, or 25 pips per day. Seeing as some of the major crosses like EUR/USD can trade in the range of 160 pips per day... its pretty easy to spot a trading opportunity that can get you those 25 pips every day.

    I mainly scalp my trades or trade on fundamentals. But recently searching on the net, I found out that it was very likely that FXCM operates in a way similar to a bucket shop... so I think ill make the switch to interactive brokers soon. Anyhow, why the negativity.. sure there may be some completely gulliable morons online, but it is entirely possible to make 25 pips a day. or 125pips a week consistently.

  9. We should be encouraging these types of threads. The more folks that want to throw us their money, the better.
