{quote} I have started live directly. Made 40k by selling the euro from 1.3990 to 1.3485. Then decided I am a huge talent. Big thinker... Started to automate strategies. Lost the 40k won, added on top -65k loss in automation failures, mostly. Then added -130k in 12-15 ea developments. Plus 7-8 custom indicators. Fully stopped live trading around Sep 2015 and moved to demos. Until ready. Nov 2016 started live trading on cent accounts. It is better than demo. But still all developments went on demos. Over a thousand 10k demos got blown away from sep'15...

How is it possible to fail on a demo account?

You enter when you get your setups, exit at the targets, have zero emotional attachments. It's a complete turkey shoot...

Ha-ha!;-)

I am already a millionaire, mate. Our company is in the top 100 domain registrars worldwide and in the top 10 in the UK...

Life delivers strange results when one does not give a shit about personal gains. I will donate 99.99% of my gains. That was my initial boost when I have started it. Leaving just 0.01% for myself will still be enough for a new rolls and a jet like Mr Hamilton's red one...;-)

That is easy. I just blow the whole demo balance away... To master demo accounts blowing I have set up 17 vpses with 8 mt4 terminals on each vps. Each terminal has one demo. And 3 dedicated servers with 20 terminals each. I am very good at this! Hahaha!:-))) Not a monitor looking freak. So, automation is all i chase...

my advice to all of you is, while pursuing this trading career, just don't neglect other possibilities. Don't throw away careers or business opportunities and hope to make it in this game. last thing you want is after 10-15 years and you're in your 40's 50s and realize how much of a fuck up you've been in a empty studio apartment you share with a crackhead roomate who sleeps in the hallway..

But many traders are not patient enough to allow capital to grow gradually. They want to compete with other traders making big

Wth does that have to do with not winning? A trader can have mastered his psychology but if he doesnt have a positive expectancy system he is screwed. Yogi or not. All that garbage about trading being 85% psychological and 15% system is B.S. IMHO

Confidence build upon rich experience is all one needs to be successful.

Experience is build by repeated failure.

Live trading is not the place to gather the experience required...
