Oanda or IB?

  1. And yet another conclusions - I do not really agree with You ssss that public contest are that good. You will never play during them as with real money, which You already have! Besides of that - they are not that often and making 1000% profit in one month is never easy, so winning the contest is rather a matter of luck. But if You have a really great system - it is good to give it a try on a contest for sure (and tell nobody about it!!! ;) )

    Next thing is about broker reliability depending on his total capital. I come from Poland. Last year or two years ago we've had here a giant scam with a company named WGI (Warsaw Investment Group).
    Somehow 300 millions of PLN (1EUR=3.6PLN) of more than 1000 clients disappeared! And the company seemed to be regulated! The guys responsible will probably go to jail for 2 years but the money? Where is it? Wouldn't You like to go to jail for 2 years , for 10 millions Euro (finally time to read some books watch stupid films and play chess with cell-friend)? and I think some people connected to government are in it also. So You never really know... If You have more than 50k$ I think it is always good to keep a half of it in gold or something like that. Beware of the fact that a giant American crisis is on the way and maybe even a 3rd world war, so I think, that diversification is much more important nowadays.

    No one to trust when it is about money and power.

  5. ssss , thank You for Your intersting links, which I first have to check thoroughly to have the "international experience"

    If I tell You, that making 1000% in one month is never easy, maybe I should have put it in other words: If you do not have luck, It extremely difficult. But I know, that with high leveraging it is possible, and maybe even some fund managers were sometimes able to do it.

    Anyway - I have a question to You personally, but as You have started implicating, that I am a dilletant, I will ask here: do You have a bad day or something. You seem a little agressive...

    I may not be as well informed as You in terms of market and forex. But Your statements were somehow like attacking and You had no reason for that. Is it because I have a different opinion about playing in contests? And also You may be speaking to a person who is able to make 1000% a month much easier that others, so always be careful :) I hope I did not offend You anyway.

    1.Best what was observed, was 855% on 3000$ capital from anonymous from Australia by King of the Mini contest .

    This have approx 4000 competitors .

    suspect ,that result was realy ,but wihtout statement
    of CFTC about "no offset accounts"

    As example Larry Williams result is " deceptive statements "
    from NFA ,as this person used multiple clients accounts ,which
    have loss.

    2. From multiple tests with real quote ,paper money with multiple attempts and multiple loss can say possible

    700 % in one day ,margin 1:800

    10+ in row ,each 20%(risk 75%) , together some 6 time 's (500%)

    3100% in 15 days ,margin 1:200 ,after that all loss


    More of them author have result with paper money
    in contest ,which fixed from Germany SEC (BAFIN)
    Head of derivative of all Germany 539,39% per week

    But last years one operator performed 1200 % per week
    and won 2 month contest ( price 120 000 $ ,not taxed ,as contest was without real money ,another case tax 50%)


    But that is one from 10000-15000 ,

    Game theory - A.Puankare ,J.von Neumann
    ,Shannon .

    In retail only one from 20000-50000 would going from stock
    with 2-5 mln in 10 years ,95-98% would loss ...
