I have been involved with FX for 3 years. What a crazy journey it has been! Like many of the people that have been at this for a while i have tried most systems and aproaches out there. I lost money and made money but consistency has been somewhat out of my reach. Since i have a full time job (bills need to be paid) it has been difficult for me to come up with a way to profit from this market while keeping my job. So i started working towards creating an EA to do the trading for me. After working on a variety of concepts and approaches i have finally cooked up an EA that is showing a lot of promise. The EA has been profitable in backtest and live forward test. So i decided to put some more money behind it and see what happens. I will start trading on 01/11/09. This thread will be a place where i will keep track of my progress and record some of my ideas along the way.
I do not have any specific goals/targets, at least not short term. My aim is to see if this thing can be consistently profitable. The trading will be live at IBFX and the account will have $5000 in it. It should be an interesting experiment since the only trading i've done before was manual. It will take some getting used to the idea of having a robot doing the work.
PS I am not willing to share or sell this EA (for a lot of different reasons) so please no requests of any kind!!!
