So good to see you're starting again! Your first thread inspired me a lot to be a better trader. Thanks for that! I decided to finally jump in as this is going to be a great opportunity to be a more disciplined, accurate and rational trader. My goal is to master this craft. Money will just follows it. I'll start with a $50 account and link a TE.

Awesome 7Billions! Welcome and good luck!

Took a few knocks on the account, but managed to get it back into positive territory.

One of the main changes that I am doing this time around is using s SL & TP on every order. I've also reduced the amount of averaging I do so now I'll only do it if I'm certain that my analysis is correct and price will return to my directional bias.

Doing this means there will be some losses along the way so no pretty equity curve like I had before, but it also means that this time around my account has a better chance of surviving past $5k.

I've already achieved this weeks target of +25% so so far so good.

{quote} Great results, but why do you hide so many stats?
Ignored
Because I like to keep my trading to myself as much as possible, the more you reveal the more you entice the trolls to come out of their holes, i'm just posting % screenshots to show people it is possible to grow a small account.

Just know it's live and I have taken small funds out as i'm going along.

This is just a small challenge account I am running, won't be posting live TE either as I feel that can negate results because you are focused more on a public TE than the trading itself. (atleast what i found)

You are trying to stop a train, no reasons for sell. Aud are flying and USD is weak. And You hide so many in your ss, your account isn't verified.

1) I trade reversals
2) I trade shorter time frames than the weekly you are looking at
3) I don't see any buys on your screen so if you think it's a train why ain't you buying buddy?
4) verified don't mean shit, but I'll do it eventually when I can be bothered
5) I just gave my reasons why I cover stats, I knew someone like you would come out of the woodwork

Since this is part 2, I assume a previous challenge was done successfully? Great job man! Could we see a history of that account? I'm sure there will be many learning points. Thank you!

I know your a new member but you really should try reading the threads before you start asking questions. Your "assumption" could have been answered in the first 2 or 3 sentences of the entire thread. Now I can see why so many TS's tell people to read page 1. Good luck with your journey in Forex.

Its been a good start to the week adding a few $ to the account bringing the balance up to +50% in less than 2 weeks.

So on Sunday night I migrated my account from IC Markets AU to IC Markets Global and in doing so they changed me to a new server after which I then noticed that they "withdrew" my balance and "deposited" it to the new server so now it looks like I made a withdrawal and a deposit and its messed up the stats. So because of that it doesn't show 50% as it should it shows as 22% which is incorrect. Unfortunately there is nothing I can do about it so tracking the all time stats won't be accurate.

mrdfx,

are you still using tma, y(h,l) and adr approach?

i started follow you because i use similar strategy, but instead of tma i recently start using donchian channel.

Regards,

I guess you would get less PM of such requests if you would explain in detail how you trade. Even though I guess you cant explain it all
Anything above the line is an uptrend, below the line is a downtrend.
