OK Bowforex. Hope you have read the rules carefully.
Your stats have been updated in first post @ serial no. 37 & you are already live
Given the fact HUF as base currency was not there under rule "D",till now, i have added the same(Rarely see traders with such base currency)


@Participants
- All weekend updates have been done (already; a bit late this time(was traveling))
- Rule "D" stands edited to add "HUF" as base currency, as explained above
- Major Pairs are IMO priming for a larger move ( April's monthly bar close would give very important insight's)

Bowforex, i am not sure about your trading profile, but i hope you have a plan/strategy to implement. (i am not even sure you are trading manually or using some automated trading strategies/software). Yes, i see ~3700 HUF might not be big amount to lose.
If you want to re-attempt, the procedure is same but RULE "R" applies. Read that before re-enrolling

Ok, Bowforex. Trade well (Looks like you are already up 30%)
Your stats have been updated in first post already


@Participants
- All weekend updates have been done
- Major Pairs are indeed priming for a larger move . Still waiting for April's monthly bar to close to give very important insight's
- Many major pairs like EURUSD, USDCHF, GBPUSD are at make or break levels (pending breakdowns/breakouts). I would be happy to see that happening this coming week. Personally ready for trading this week, heavily (in both types of trading accounts)

Eh, today i lost my second chalange. The GBPUSD turned back,and i did not get out in time.

I need more experience in the position sizing, i'll try it again. There was also an interesting experience, a psihological effect, i lost the balance on my mind after i having increased the position size. Before this i have 80% winrate, after this i won nothing!

Owerall, for me, this is the best way to learning forex, low risk, and a lot of experience!

The results of second round:


Starting Equity: HUF 3,132.04
Ending Equity: HUF 100.59

0.031 (100.59|3773.47|0)

Alright Ismail. Interesting Avatar. Hope you have read all the rules carefully.
But your starting equity is 735.87 and not 778 USD (as reflecting in explorer)
Your stats have been updated in first post & you are already live @ serial no. 38
http://www.forexfactory.com/ismail/51
Trade well (looking good as of now)

@Bowforex
Alright. Info updated.
Yeah, take your time and find/sort things out. its sometimes better to go slow. You were earlier trading fine.


@Participants
- All weekend updates have been done
- Last account got messed up after good trading (300%+ profit float) early on. Was carrying relatively good sized EURGBP longs
Deposit of ~13$ is a NBP broker entry (& not a actual deposit)
- GBPUSD, EURGBP fulfilled the major moves we were expecting. I Personally didn't expect that GDP number for sure, though (As of now 1.5555 is a good level to start adding shorts (prolly til 1.5615))
- Other majors like EURUSD, USDCHF are still priming for that large move.
This week gonna be VOLATILE (Very) IMO (lot of data coming out too). Still waiting for April's monthly bar to close to give very important insight's
- EURUSD. Very Possibility of a bear squeeze (the same way Cable bears were squeezed)if ECB makes no rate cut (and esp. doesn't mention it at all) Dont get surprised if 1.32, 1.34 & above are registered soon, next to next week. Rate cut or mention of its impending possibility of course would make 1.2860's & jab @ previous swing lows of 1.2750's likely.

Alright Peke
Your stats have been updated in first post & you are listed @ serial no. 39
You are already live and looks like close to doubling the account
Trade well

@Participants
- All weekend updates have been done (a day late; i was traveling whole last week (investing in some entities))
- Though i am out of sync with markets(i missed the whole ECB and NFP action), it was INDEED very INTERESTING to know the talk of -ve rates from ECB
- April's monthly bar has closed but i am yet to properly see/analyze charts of majors
- GBPUSD bias remains Short for me. Levels mentioned last time still stand(with their importance) and its still a sell on rise (even till 1.5780's)
1.5400 (Grade 1A SUP LVL) need to be taken out "successfully" for bears to be in CONTROL again.
- EURGBP: Overall Bullish Biased for this PAIR (technically;based on quick look@charts; can make spike lows though below 8400(prolly opportunity to buy?))
- USDCHF & EURUSD look interesting too

Lets WnW (gotta get back in groove this month)


@ 36) Kokopelli & 38) Ismail
You both have completely removed your trade explorer's or made private, so i am not able to update your stats.
Kindly correct the same else your status will be appropriately changed, as per clearly stated rules.

Thanks forexsaint! Yes everything is going so far well. I'll post few things at later point of time if the challenge keeps going well.

Good trading to all!

I failed my 4th. It's very difficult to start with low deposit (5USD). I go back to demo for more experience.

100 Fold Challenge contest entry attempt #2: Starting Equity: $102.03 Account Currency: USD Broker Name: Oanda Leverage: Max 50:1 Trade Explorer Link: http://www.forexfactory.com/jwpdad#79
I would like to withdraw from this contest, I had to transfer all funds from the platform used on my original explorer to the new platform, all money is still with the same broker but this was necessary and the original explorer link will no longer update my trades. Thanks anyway, the contest is a fun idea and I will keep an eye on everyone's progress. Anyone who wants to follow my trades can do so at my journal, I have updated to a new trade explorer to reflect live trades from here forward.

Your status has been changed to "Disqualified" in 1st post, as per rules.

@Peke5
Looks like that acc. took a hit. Any way 60 $ is still a a lot of money to turn things around Trade well.

@Bowforex
Your stats & status have been updated.
Good luck & trade Well.

@Jwpdad

Though i didn't get the relation of transferring money from 1 acc to other & withdrawing from challenge, i take it as your decision.
Your stats & status have been updated. Good luck & Trade well.

@Participants
- All weekend updates have been done (I am sorry for no last weekend update; I really didn't get much time as i am still traveling more or less relating to some investments)
- Last Friday was one hell of a USUAL'-Day-Turned-FRY'Day
- GBPUSD: Short BIAS played nicely & after 1.54 broke,bears came howling in & 1.5170 was the next stop. Personally booked out Heavy shorts & looking for some retrace to re-enter again (depends upon PA though)
- EURGBP: The pair is still CONSOLIDATING . 8420 was again HIT (i personally added some longs around) & MY BIAS Remains the same i.e.
"Overall Bullish Biased for this PAIR (technically;based on quick look@charts; can make spike lows though below 8400(prolly opportunity to buy?))
- USDCHF: A Sell on every rise above 9750's esp @ 9780 (Gr1A), 9800(Gr1A) & 9810(Gr2AAA) till 9890 is breached (Gr1AAA RES LVL)
- Accordingly, EURUSD is a Buy on dip mode for me (below 1.2750's) except if that Bearish HnS any one can see on W1 TF breaks sucessfully, straight away (beware of fake break). 1.2650-1.26 breach remains the "all-bull" extinction Zone (for a good amount of time, IMO)
- On side note, GBPCHF is looking pretty bearish(retracement setup) & may be even GBPJPY & EURJPY

Lets WnW (Will try to roll in this week)
