Decided to stick with the $96, it makes it more of a challenge

Saint, you going to give it another go?

Trade well R2R.
I am not sure, if i wanna go with one for this challenge as of now.
Does me giving another go here with you, will affect you in any way? bit intriguing.
I think it should not. If you wanna discuss something about any pair, let me know.

I am constantly looking @ Aussie .
IMO can be here for a short term(very possible) or monthly reversal(unlikely till some major USD weakness across the board; taper disappointment?)
I have some long positions on (conventional acc) from 8950 and adding on dips below this (just added some @ 8938)
Overall, if hits 1st major LVL 9130 (Gr1AAA) this wk(better) or next, it wud fit well with higher TF expectations.
9040 is a intermediate yet very IMP RES LVL (Gr1AA)
Other majors seem like just doing "Jobbing" (as of now at least; range bound prolly until something major hits wires)

Lets WnW

{quote} Though rebates(that too feeded back into trading account) is a tricky issue, as of now i am allowing it. But i will think more on it as personally i also generate a lot of rebates...infact the 100$ account which made $11200+ generated some 900$ of rebates which of course i didn't calculate as part of target objective. Rebates is a nice thing like in above case 900$ of rebates is already 800% profits. As that broker doesn't pay directly into account, it can be bit different for all. I will think more about it. Bit tricky issue {quote} You...
sorry! i keep saying 1000 fold instead of 100 fold

dont know whats wrong with me


well... off to a good start. 2% gain today , $2 wooooooooooooooohoooo

with -10 pips... LOL.


even though i knew to slam euraud, i still was playing it safe with such small equity.. only shorted the 0.02 lol
made the bigger money on my main account of course...


this is why i would rather start with $500, so i can go bigger

lost $50 of the $100 i started with



i may start again sometime but honestly cant stand having people see my open trades


so if posting after the fact disqualifies you (which logically makes no sense whatsoever), then so be it.


but if i do end up doing this challenge and i can post after the fact, then i will.


again, logically, there is no reasoning behind why you wouldn't allow people to do it this way.

Rags2RichesFx ,

To be frank, now u r acting like a kid or newbie trader (i think you aren't, till now(?))

You just lost "gigantic" 50$ & you "honestly cant stand having people see" your open trades?
am i hearing this right? oh come on R2R, whats so special about this account? Whats there to hide?
what if people see you losing 100$ (or even 1000$ or 10000$?)? losses are part and parcel of trading in this business of nothing being 100% correct

F**k the people. These forums are full of people just here to pass comments to express the loads of shit they got inside. They themselves havn't ever had a week in profit. Why do you care?
You are doing this for yourself. To test your trading skills, discipline, resolve, your strategy, etc, etc. WTF have those naysayers gotta do with it?
Read the "AIMS" part in first post.

I have seen participants here... hiding explorers, changing explorer passwords(so that they dont update), even removing them and not coming back here ever(updating nothing about their attempt), Pm'ing me pathetic reasons , etc
But I am surprised seeing that reply, esp. that coming from you


Any way, Rules are clearly written in first post. Rule "N" clearly states...
"Make sure your Trade explorer account is correctly linked and shows required details, at least every weekend. Required details include Equity, Deposits, Withdrawals & Trades."Aim is simply to have results which are <1 week old"
So if you are so particular about open trades, you can hide the same except at weekend (i often update 1st post stats around Sunday NY (EST) evening)



Stuff like "but if i do end up doing this challenge and i can post after the fact," is not allowed. There is no place for games.
This challenge rules are already very simple and clear enough , with the only obligation of "updated" weekend stats on trade explorer. As simple as that!



If you still want to withdraw from challenge (which i dont see any reason for; given the above solution).....let me know
I will update the stats thereafter.

Feline207,
We have had myfxbook as one of the ways of posting trading stats for this challenge, but that along with others was removed on 22nd March 2012: (see updates in 1st post) to give uniformity to stats and bit easy on me to update all weekend stats

1) Trade explorer is easy to handle and surely you can link a trading account on multiple sites. There is no such issue .
2) This has been asked before .Previous stats are not considered part of this challenge. All stats are counted from the day you post your participation here with account details. Kindly read all the rules in 1st post.

Just goto the following link and you can create an explorer there (Use the custom date feature(using the date when you participate here))
http://www.forexfactory.com/myprofile.php?do=explorer

Hope this helps

I know I have no business being here. But I 100% agree with what forexsaint has said. Especially the F**k the people part. People will always talk shit whether due to the insecurity, envy, hate, etc... You just have to forget about their existence and just focus on doing what will help you. Because at the end of the day you have yourself and the people not gonna pay your bills. This is in general not just for trading. I've been through this hole many times and believe me once you forget about what people say you'll explode and make a successful life you'd never imagine you could do it. Good day

I closed out the account that was linked to my trade explorer. I am going to start the challenge again soon.
I just got a reply from FXCM (your broker) and as per them even a closed account has history and can be logged into.
Further a closed account will have a WITHDRAWAL of funds entry (which there is not as of now)

Your last update to explorer account was on july 5th 2013 as per trade explorer.
Kindly update it so that i can update the final equity in stats, else in absence of the same, account would be considered busted and all equity would be added to net P/L stats as loss.

Let me know.

- Been camping at a dense hilly acute country border and getting a 3g signal (to update stats) around this topography is very amazing/surprising.
Else the stats update would have got delayed till next 10 days or so.

OK Spyderman.

But there are few issues:
1) The trade explorer link you have posted is not correct.The correct link is
http://www.forexfactory.com/spyderman/79 Kindly acknowledge the same by replying here
2) Your equity details are all private . kindly make them public so that equity/deposit/withdrawal details can be seen.
(in case you want to hide them, you can.... but only during weekdays.Kindly make sure required details are there every weekend.Read rule "R"
I hope you have read and understood the clearly written, simple rules, carefully.

Your stats will remain "pending" & will be updated in first post when you reply and act on above. BTW you are listed @ serial no. 44
Trade well.

ForexSaint.

Yes, trade explorer is http://www.forexfactory.com/spyderman/79
Sorry about that.

I've updated the settings to make money and lots public. Hopefully that will do the trick.

I have read the rules...hopefully understand ...

I have placed a trade since I posted the original request, so don't know if the beginning balance needs to be adjusted.

Thanks again.

I'll bite. I'll enroll in this experiment. I'm here to make dollars, not sense.

This is the comeback here. Floundered around with Oanda's crap charting at first, but got some real MT4 charting going again with FXDD and base my trades off of that, and will start building steam.

1) $945.53 - August 25, 2013
2) USD
3) Oanda
4) 50:1
