Trading for CABLEGUY!

As you may know, one of FF members, The Cableguy https://www.forexfactory.com/the*cableguy is battling cancer. I admire his positive attitude and like to help him as much as possible. I wish I could fulfill his needs for medical help out of my own pocket but I have limited funds. I have set up a small account and will trade and donate the profits (if any) every month to his gofundme account: https://www.gofundme.com/stage-4-gli...cancer-fighter

I ask and encourage all of you to chip in to his page even if it is a few dollars.

My good friend fxsniper111 has provided the EA and other particulars for the account and I may put on the odd manual trades as well. If the account happens to blow up, I will donate the original amount to Cableguy's page anyway so it won't be all for nothing.

I wish victory for The Cableguy and a long long life ahead.

PS: The account is a cent account so I can trade bigger sizes without fear of blowing up but I just found out that FF does not allow cent accounts that are real accounts to be made public. I think I will have to attach screenshots once in a while. It is too unfortunate but that is FF for you.

A very nice gesture my friend,i will be here following a long and help with whatever tweaks the EA should need along the way...I think everyone of us would apprichiate whatever help we would get a long the way fighting someting like this and i must say Cableguy is a very brave man not just giving up as i think many would...

Good luck on the journey both of you..

bless both your hearts!!

Thanks bud.

Time is getting close...just going through the routine checking procedure.

Thanks so much for the blessing.

So, Mr Sniper...
Engineer in charge... Mr. Sniper, are we clear for take off?
Any last changes?

Oh, I authorized Sunday take offs but just gonna stand by for your report.

My flight engineer apparently is busy with some engineering kinda thing and quite unavailable.
So, for now I pulled the plug and on standby.

Or maybe I need to hire a new flight engineer? Lolz

sure ready for takeoff....lolz


EDIT:Its a hybrid grid so we may go out a little high on startlot,but we will see how goes if goes into some deeper drawdown we can lower some on pairs that are not in DD....At the same time we want to make some profits even its not much,its someting and everyting would help i belive if everybody will chip in with a little it will be a lot in total,,,

Yey Officer Sniper.
Ok, ready, set..........go!

And....nothing happened.

That was someone else's afterburner.

Nothing is moving. Long delay. We are not going anywhere anytime soon!

Well we have some startup problems i was to add some money from Outthere to my already running centaccount with some small profit,but Neteller have closed down deposits to Justforex and they will not approve my creditcard picture because card is to worn...So i need to get a new creditcard issued from my bank and that may take a week so the profits until then will be very small until i can get more into the centaccount and increase the lots so it will give some more....Our plan is to run it for 3 months as a gesture to make more traders chip in to the donations to this very brave guy and add profits after each month and then after 3 months withdrae all of what is in account and donate that also...heres a screenshot of how its done in 2 1/2 weeks ore so....Outthere had so computer issues thats is why i am to run the EA from my account instead...

I don't really know cableguy but I wish you the best of luck in your health problems

All the best mate

I'm very happy you are joining this effort directly. Very nice to have you aboard trading directly.

Great. thanks very much.

So, basically we have divided this effort into 2 divisions. FXsniper runs the automated division on his computer in a separate account dedicated to it and I run the manual division with it's own separate account. Those things are not written in stone and we can switch and/or have any combinations of methods but for now we are just starting like that. Not a whole lot going on at my end cause market has been so slow.

but I wish you see my TE but you are not allowed..Just to be clear, 2 accounts, $100=10000 cents in each. Right Sniper?.

We are not trying to make people think the 10000 cents is actually 10000 dollars. 10000 cents equals 10000 cents and that is all.



So, what I have right now is a combination of beginners luck, loser hoarding and counter trend trading. Just you know, momentarily...but things might get better you know..it's forex. Anything can happen. it's just a baby now. where is Gandalf? Isn't he supposed to walk in anytime now and offer to escort us to victory?

Just follow this guy and he'll get you there and if you think he is dead at any time, rest assured, he will pick you up from from flames of hell if he has to and you will live to see how well things turned out.

I'm kinda starting to like this journal thing. I can just have a monologue and post stuff I want without caring to be judged or of getting into big fights etc.



It's nice of FF to let this be in the Trading Discussion section and hopefully, more people get to see CableGuy's gofundme page this way.. However, this is also about starting a brand new account of the modest size but also scale-able in size but this is what it is. I'm not a good teacher but I can tell you how I feel about starting a brand new account.

Aside from all the decisions made on how to run it what strategy, bla bla..., once everything in place, I like to throw in some hopefully good choices of trades in just to get the things going. There is never really a good time unless you avoid times where the spread is high. Then I like to sit back and see everything kinda sink into place. A day, two or more until dust settles so I can see what the hell I have done. In the meanwhile, of course there is some TP's getting hit and chances pop up but it's of course a discretionary thing that I can control.

After that, then I can decide to continue casual happy happy trading or I will see if I have to bring in the heavy machinery for rescue attempts or even recovery....

Oh, I don't use SL. OOps, crowd running away...

Okay, so I need Gandalf along.

Has anyone seen a really grumpy old man who hasn't seen the interior of a barber shop for 1000's of years and looks semi-pedo at times hanging out around little people? Not just any old man like that. Needs to have magic up his butt galore and he needs to be able to fight like the 24 year old head gladiator of the Roman times and other times, he will need to fight higher ranking wizards and the occasional hand to hand combat with monsters from the beyond might be required. Of course should Gandalf really come forward and accept the challenge, I will personally see to it that his robe gets a nice dry cleaning to make it nice and white again.

Just PM me if you are Gandalf please.


If not, it's ok. I was gonna go that way anyway. I'll see you on the other side.

I don't really want to get into the topic of SL but I think the use and understanding of SL varies by quite a lot among traders.

Everything has a stop loss. The deepest one is the whole account and then it varies up from there. You could measure those degrees in terms of percents. So the whole account is 100%. If you blow it, 100% gone, If you don't trade it, it'll just sit 100% but anywhere in between is degrees of your loss tolerance. So it doesn't matter if you use a physical SL in place becasue you will always will have one in place no matter what.

The argument is where you draw the line and how you manage it. It is believed that the most effective way of doing it is to place a SL in your trades. In fact I think most everybody does that. However, you can and will have a SL in your account one way or another and you hopefully trade according to it. If you don't put that hard SL number in your trades, then I assume you are SL Flexible. Yes that is a thing. I am a SL Flexible trader. I know where it is. I have an eye on it.

I was thinking of turning this into a Man vs. Machine competition. Sniper as the machine and me of course as your friendly neighborhood trading hero with the ability to sleep in the web of my own making.

If so, I guess I get a week of advantage until sniper puts together his exoskeleton robot and the environment for it. He has got it tough to think that he is worthy of taking on such a street smart, agile, and of course very able and needless to say handsome opponent like me. . Yes, I gotta warm up, dip my toe in the water, learn how to pray and learn how to wash soiled pants and so on. All he has to do is a set up and turn on a button. Not really fair to fight a machine. I am thinking that he is gonna handily beat me. After all, I have a full time job and a family and I can't place trades when I really want. His robot is just a cold hearted ruthless conniving and calculating machine. But hey, I drink good green juice with a lot of vitamins and exercise well as you can see by my big muscles in the picture, so ya, bring it on.


Okay, having fun but the real winner will be Cableguy in any case and you too can make him a winner...you know how. https://www.gofundme.com/stage-4-gli...cancer-fighter
