Disliked{quote} You mean explorer? Go ask him about it. You'll probably be sent to hell or somewhere near that Though, I've seen enough of his live trades to conclude he is more profitable than 10% per month... You can read Genesis Thread you'll see yourself.Ignored
Disliked{quote} before you answer in that manner...read carefully what i wrote: by their claims so it is by their claims...not what you beliveIgnored

Disliked{quote} Exactly, I haven't seen so much people CLAIMING they're profitable for a year consistently without a drawdown more than 20%! {quote} Share what? You wanna know what I trade? - Genesis System I've been using this system for about 8 months - half of them demo and testing. Profitable - yes. I began with a relatively small account and using compounding. Details - don't feel like! If you wanna hear where I get money so much, here we go: I have sources of income that give me enough to live on and they don't take lots of time - my focus is almost...Ignored
Disliked{quote} that is the name of the thread: I trade my own account for a living. Tell your story - you claim to be full time trader, that is what i was telling you to share - being here and being a full time trader i assume you would like to share your story but, after reading your response...it is all clear...nevermind, live in your dreamlandIgnored
DislikedRemember, the idea is that full time traders or struggling traders that made their jump onto profitability and make a living from trading share their experience, what they did to achieve it, what they learned in the process and how they keep doing it profitably.Ignored
DislikedThanks guys for your very different views on this topic, I personally appreciate them all. I’d really like to keep this thread clean of the usual flaming about it being or not possible to achieve. If we can’t pass this point through then I guess this thread isn’t worth mine or anyone else’s time away from the charts and personal life. There’s the aggressive approach and there’s the conservative approach with all the gray areas in between. Institutionals have their way of doing things: conservative, commission-based trading; independents otoh can...Ignored
DislikedShow me one person....just one .... Who has been making more than 10% a month consistently for a year with drawdown 20% or less.... And I will never trade. please do not misguide people. One can get lucky for a few times, but no one can remain consistently profitable with crazy returns. But if you insist, means you have no clue how this market works.Ignored
Dislikedim an ocassional ff.com reader, mostly just for fun because i cant really see anything valuable posted in trading system section.Ignored
DislikedI trade full-time, manage accounts etc. Took me a long-time to understand how to trade and be profitable long-term. Basically it isn't so much about analyzing but planning. Have written an article about it: http://www.dukascopy.com/fxcomm/fx-a...ons-The&id=786 The article was written for the previous month contest. Its basically the first step which led me to full-time trading and earning a living from it. Oh by the way, when I say full-time trading and earning a living from it,...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Surely! That's your thread - you are boss here! If that 'imposing' thing is related to me - didn't mean it. On the opposite, I've expressed my point of view and added some evidence - BUT one can choose what to do with it and I don't really care what it will be. That's absolutely their right. I actually already said what I wanted to - don't have anything to add except in this post. Wouldn't even do that at all hadn't there been made so ridiculous and unjustified statements like these: {quote} Chicky, you can't know either of these affirmations...Ignored
DislikedYour 3%, Chiky, are just showing that you're not able to trade with decent profitability. There's a plenty of EAs that are making more than that. Even lousy martingale [strategy I described in another thread] will make much more.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Not taken. Your point of view is to be respected and I do understand what you say. I just think we should stay respectful and refrain from making personal judgements between members. If we can have an interesting and constructive discussion then I'm sure that other fulltimers will get curious and drop their word of wisdom too, as long as the content is worth everyone's time.Ignored
Disliked{quote} Thanks for reminding. Think I already know this.............................................. You may like to check egypt's profile and posts............ he used ea's to make tons of money only to watch it disappear one day along with his original investment. He advised me on how to trade candle sticks. 3% in a year is far better than -100%. No one knows about martingales than myself. I traded using them on usdjpy from 1995 through 2007, those were the days when you checked the charts on one site and placed the trades on another site...............Ignored
Disliked{quote} Absolutely! Though, I hope 'bullshit' towards an unjustified statement is acceptable. I never EVER insult people's personality. And when others do - that's just funny [as I began seeing pretty clear patterns in their behaviour].Ignored
