There is a simple solution to it:
guys who don't want to show their live trades must at least activate their full TE at every weekend.

MZ should have set that important rule right from the beginning.
And at the end of the year, everyone has to activate their full TE (to exclude and bust potential fakers/photoshoppers).

It is much easier to deflect and to use excuses to not want to show off your trades. I am still awaiting alfahater's account. All i care is about % return, the account size doesn't matter. I know for sure he will never have a 15% profit week .

Account size does matter in the sense that its extremely easy to get huge % returns on a small account because you are trading big with pocket money but once you put in serious $$ amounts its a different game and not comparable.

thats what so many beginners dont undertand. trading small money is so much easier then big money.

in small money accounts:
- you lose only little play money and often dont care for drawdown or losses (dont use stoploss, martingale beginners,....)
- you dont care when account is busted, you reopen new
- the postions traded are much much smaller, so the spread is smaller, the slippage is smaller-- > so the win is higher, the loss is smaller
- money need to be extra secured
- much smaller leverage can be used and is given by the broker
and and and....

so having same percents in big accounts against small accounts with same strategy is impossible.

Serious money? Pocket money? Small account. Can we please talk numbers so i can easily disprove your claim. Thhis last week i took a 250usd account and doubleded 1.5x over. If i do the same with a 5,000usd account that is well over 10x larger, if the same results are produced then your claim is false. A person can wager between up to 1% per pip on a 200:1 account and that is more than enough to produce massive returns in short spans no matter the account size.
Especially co ndering this era where robots can m ake 10,000,000 in trading capital be able tp use 500:1 leverage rather easily. Most are to pessimistic to see what thinking outside the box can gain you.

you are a big mouth. nothing more.
5000 usd is a joke, is still called small money.

dream more about your 10 million accounts and 500 leverage using. what a trading clown, learn the basics, thats so crazy misleading what you tell here!

you look really extrem outside the box, many told you this already!

So you trade full lots on $250, does that mean you would be trading 20+ lots on $5000?

If you double $250 in a week can you keep up the double % returns in the following weeks or does it get harder? If your response is "no its the same difficulty" then check out the rags to riches thread and be the first one to do it.

Independent of what I do, the simple fact that it is possible means that it has to be apart of someones plans. Some people would say that the longer the winning streak the higher probability that a loss will occur but that isnt true if the possibility of the outcome remains the same. I can wager 1% of my account per pip from 3000:1 all the way to 200:1 with no issues. If you allow your account size to determine your risk then your equity curve will never show comstant weekly growth % wise because you are lowering risk after ever win basically.

I have checked BankerKoh's trading performance. Only need 1 trade to bring up the account by 14.4%.
And his win ratio is 100%.

I do have a TE but not public due to frequent requests on my open trades.

however; I have myfxbook which is public; and show more detailed stats; much better than TE
