I think mrdfx has left the building.

A shame because I believe that these conditions are great for forex trading - 100 pips in 5 mins is my kind of trade (as long as you're on the right side of course!) - in and out in a flash with a nice fat profit

Anyway I do think that the show must go on ! I will be entering the challenge again within the next couple of days - just waiting for some funds to arrive

I'm still in the challenge. Although I don't trade full time, I'm making progress. Little by little (5% per week is a tidy progress)

in the meantime probably spared yourself from the frustration of blowing up multiple accounts or the very least taking large equity swing; both a definite emotional drag.

sure the end of the cycle, the 5% gain=50$ doesnt sound as fancy as 100% gain=50$ when comes to bragging right....
//-----

hey profitfarmer..... precisely..... fancy usually comes with a high price.... past couple weeks have doubled some accounts at the expense of others.....

if more traders could limit themselves to 1:1 leverage for their first 2 years, they might still be around in 3....

small lots, low leverage, can double your account pretty darn quick.....h

If you have the funds why dont you start over with 800 like you had when blew up....That way you if you can do like you did last 2-1/2 months you will land at 5-6000 in another 2-1/2 months...Just a tip no need to follow what i say....

I've considered doing that but then I would have put in $900 instead of the original $100.

I'll be starting up another $100 account and making a few changes to my approach, that should help make things easier and less risky.

{quote} Quite aggressive start lot for $100 account isnt it.
Well it's a mental thing I suppose. It's fairly easy to make a quick 5 bucks on the market with a little leverage especially when it moves as it has done over the last week or so. And if one rather loses $5 it's not really a train crash. It's when the the account starts growing and the figure gets to $50 or $500 or $5000 then it starts becoming taxing IMHO because if the trades a loser and one loses say $500 that's an awful lot of money!

Hey guys so I came across this "trading plan" last year and it interested me so this year I decided to give it a shot. This will be a personal journal to document and track my progress throughout the year. Basically this isn't an actual trading strategy, its more of an aggressive money management approach using compounding. I'm sure many of you would have seen it somewhere before and probably many have attempted it as well I'm sure. The approach is to start with $100 and target 5% a day for a year and after that with the power of compounding I should...
Can you pls explain how you will trade

I think one has to give more attention to MM as one's account balance grows. It's so easy to get blasé about loss when one seems to be doing really well! One has to trade ever more carefully to maintain that smooth upward curve
