you. are. not. a. multi. billion. fund. Repeat that every time you switch on your computer. Write that down and stick it to the wall where you can see it when you're trading. A multi billion fund employs a horde of the best analysts and has their ears everywhere, you have not and that's why you cannot compete in these markets. They trade through venues you don't have access to, they execute by using tech you cannot afford. There is no way you outtrade them on a consistent basis. So for retail cash FX is an absolute no go
that again is utter BS. You don't need liquidity and you don't need a lot of trades. You need to be the liquidity others execute against because then you set the price Why would you prefer a random price movement over a a position that is worth 200.000 US which you can get for 190.000? Are you willing to hold it and capable of managing the risk of your inventory? The reason you don't see these trades is because you have no clue how to evaluate what you are trading and that's why you gamble on direction. Timing is nothing, edge is everything
Would it make any personal difference to you....if I said, and displayed, I banked two figures today, or six figures, or four figures, or seven figures, or three figures, or five figures, Numbers are designed to appeal to the small-minded, just like Ken Calhoun showing he traded 41 million in stock volume, but had no actual profits/or very secretive little profit.
Yes, it would BIGLY, because YOU are the one who claims that if you just went long at X and exited at Y you would have 6 figures. Well, everyone can make that claim. If you bought at the June 16 low and sold now, you'd have 60 figures. It doesn't mean a damned thing, what you SAY! SHOW us, don't TELL us. Otherwise, have a steaming hearty cup of STFU.
Except I have traded sizable volume for over 1.5 decades as retail and averaged around 20% returns every single year. Plenty enough for me given the stringent risk profile I operate with.
Could you expand that 20% annual return to....35%.....66%.....98%.....149%.....288%.....471%....1,194%..., Crank up the risk/reward and skill factor to truly bank, Go from playing with sparklers, to creating a nuclear bomb -- it's possible with great timing, understanding, wisdom, process, observation, and options,
