Real Forex Trades

Fair enough, you started condescendingly but pulled thru with merit!!!!
I was interested in your program as it is similar in nature to one of ours. I have a relatively successfully CTA which I run from SW France and am also involved with a research group based in Italy that has come up with an FX sht term system, also producing fairly consistent results. I had them start a journal (Sht term FX system I think) in order to try and iron out any glitches and let the vultures pick at it a little to show up any obvious faults.....and came across yours.

Will be interested to see your progress.

Peace & Profit

 

You are going to find a lot of condescending, disingenuous, lying, jealous, spiteful, hateful, envious, childlike, immature, arrogant, ego battered, under-developed people in this online trading world who are either comfortable with mediocrity, or spewing at others for their own failure to make real progress.

I’m just not one of them.

Peace and Profit.

 

hi real,

read your journal with interest. just out of curiosity, who do you trade via, and whats the size of your forex account? the issues you mentioned regarding size sounds quite suspicious as even the dark lord himself (s*ros) trades currencies due to the superb liquidity at monster sizes.

thanks!

No - I'm definitely not "him". LOL. But, one day plan to make good run at that level - that's for certain. It is only a matter of time. It is all academic from this point forward if I can maintain the same level of purity. Only time will tell on that one, however. Certainly, not of that would be done using retail accounts.

I don’t have a single Forex account. I have 5 primary accounts (third party clearing sources) with a mixture of sub-accounts that I use under specific conditions. I use Client Side Custom API (a project I never give any details about whatsoever) that give me a single trade execution platform running on a dual processor XP box along side the trading application I use for decision support. So, it took a lot of work to get things set-up this way, but it is the only way that I could large lots into and out of the market and still maintain the higher leverage that I like to use with my Revenue Model. Currently, mid 8 figures in total.

And, yes – one of the primary reasons I dumped the Stock Market (especially the Equity Options I used to trade) had to do with the problem of liquidity and open interest. I don’t have that problem in the Forex.

 

Yes - I'm so sure you won't dare touch the offer with a ten foot pole.

Furthermore, I came here for nothing more than a short stay and if you could read and comprehend plain English, you would have understood that by now. I will not be here for long by my own design, not yours. Got it? Good.

Lastly, these board would not be NEARLY as corrupt as they are right now, if it were not for people just like YOU who ignore the premise of the thread, the substance of the trades in favor of off-topic, irrational, illogical, assumptive, argumentative, irresponsible, childlike and petty personal attacks that have nothing to do with anything being discussed. Boards get hammered by sad, sorry, pitiful people JUST LIKE YOU who enter into some threads for the single purpose of causing TROUBLE and presenting ISSUES where none should exist.

THAT is why boards like this and threads like these get corrupted. YOU make it happen.

People like you give these boards a bad name because of the assumptive qualities in your attitude. I could care LESS what you think and I could care less more and more each day. Got that? Good.

If you did not start a problem, there would not be a problem. I never INITIATED an attack on you - you decided to do that on your own. Because I don't lie down and tolerate your misguided nonsense, does not make me arrogant. But, it does make me someone who will not put up with your unnecessary and uncalled for and totally illogical crap.

Got that? Good.

Care to say something else smart? Care to make another off-topic personal attack? I can wipe it up just as fast as you can spill it. The “sick and twisted mind” belongs with those who launch into personal attacks WITHOUT just cause for doing so.

You want to find the problem here – look in the mirror.

Got that? Good.

When you stand-down, I'll stand-down.

 

Actually that means you do care and you care more and more each day.

So how long do we have to wait for the “revelation”, by the way?

 

Revenue Model AKA Simulation. lol

You shall never produce the equity curve chart I asked.

Bye, seriously!

 

Just so you are clear on where I'm coming from, I'll re-post your own words:

That little assumptive innuendo comment came from you on 3/20/06 which was a full day after I had made the original post containing the Position Trade profile AND declared it as “Closed” while not being counted. I then followed in another post asking you for full details (if you had any) on any trade that you thought was untimely and you provided NONE – because there were none that were untimely and anybody that has been paying attention here already knew that.

So, obviously, you made this little innuendo in an attempt to stir up some crap in this thread. Every last one of your posts subsequent to this time-line were completely and utterly off-topic. Not one comment about the trades have you made that is on-topic or relevant. Everything you have done is a silly attempt to get personal with somebody you know nothing about.

Just for the record. I’ve read dozens of your posts to other people on this board. This is not the first time you’ve done this. You love to jump in from nowhere (out of the blue) and “correct” people when you think you can stir something up. So, I can see what you have tried to do with others and I’m going to nip that in the bud right here and right now with you. I already know about another individual I this thread who loves to do the exact same thing for no good reason. You can ALWAYS expect these types of characters to initiate the trash.

Just so you know – I know what’s going on – been there before – no need to protect your “turf” here on Elite where you think you need to be at the center of attention. Been there – seen this kind of behavior from people before and I know how it works. You’ve got some turf to protect because this is all you have. I fully understand – but, we are not even in the same ballpark, so I’m not stepping on your “turf”. I’m in a completely different stadium.

There are no rookies inside my keyboard – just so you know. Because, I know how much you (and another) have to be: da Man around here.

 

Does your system only deal with FX prices, or does it look at other markets as well? For example, if treasury prices, equity prices, gold prices, etc. change, does that matter to your system?

An unrelated question. If your system buys and the price goes against it and slowly continues to go against it, how does it decide when to take the loss, when to fade (Do you ever add to your position if it's going in your favor or if it's going against you?), or when to wait it out? Assuming you are buying, does the stop ever move down?
