Well, if the FCA wanted small traders out... They will finally get it. Soon, risking your money with unregulated brokers will be the norm if it continues like that.

People that risk that much % is usually low capital people (<$1000 account). If I had $100K on my trading account I wouldn't risk 1%, I would be fine risking %0.10-0.30. Risk is relative.

Yes, I feel the same. I have my job, they have theirs.

I wonder how easy would that be...?

If the maximum allowed leverage is 1:50, then I believe yes. I see people saying this is good because of the newbies and all that would protect them. I disagree. First, if the newbie was acting responsibly he/she would be aware of all the risks when ...

It seems like I hear more of abusive practices from the so called "regulated" brokers than those which are fully unregulated/illegal. This is so scaring.

Understood. I believe 1% a month is quite good (from forex), 2-3% would be ideal (at least for USD/EUR based accounts) but there are months I wouldn't prefer to trade at all (Dec-Jan, some rest is good). I see many people try to get insane profits ...

I liked this. No more excuses or delays.

Not natively, you must run it on "Wine" (a program used to run Windows programs). It works, but it depends on what you want to do. It is not perfect, but works acceptably for most cases.

I set up a VPS server for trading using a Linux VPS from url . I didn't have a problem, but I had to set it up by myself. I did that because the Windows one was too expensive for me. They have Windows VPS too, it may be good if you can afford more ...

Leveraged trading without stop loss doesn't seem a good idea. I wouldn't recommend it. Take care.

1.5-3%. If you are getting less than that, open a savings account with your local bank.

0.00-2.00%. If I had millions or billions of US dollars in my account I would certainly risk way less than that.

Speaking for myself: I found it is better to have a stop loss, and a take profit set at a fixed level. Why use a stop loss? 1.You cannot predict the market 100%, accurately. It is just not possible, and without a stop loss the price can suddenly ...

I know this broker and traded with demo/real accounts since 2011. I do not have anything bad to say about them. I can tell their demo MT4 servers are simply the fastest I tried so far, all the others I have tried has slow start up time or very slow ...

I am trading with a demo account with XM. "Metatrader 4" takes a lot of time to start, it seems their server uploads data at few bytes seconds... It is so slow sometimes it takes MINUTES to just open the account. After it is loaded, the execution is ...

Goodbye!
- BlueKnight replied Apr 13, 2016
Agreed. I think many people who get in trading want to make much money fast, they do not have patience, they do not want to wait, they feel desperate after a loss, try to "recover", and ultimately lose everything. I think trading is like driving on ...

I think you would be better with automated trailing stop then. That way, you could lose less than desired or even profit on your losing trades. P.S. Just my opinion.

I have done some work and test with automated trading and from my experience, manual trading is the way to go. Automated trading it is not a thing I would recommend for starters either. You have to know what you are doing. Just my opinion.
