Went live a day and 1/2 ago

I went live a day and 1/2 ago and i closed up today 48 pips in profit, i am using mini account, and trades limited to just .01 lots right now untill i hit the 400+ pip mark, just to get a feel of live vs demo. i am focusing on eur/usd right now because of the pip spread. any ideas or sugestions for live trading for the first time would be great. be happy to read all of them.

Thanks, Happy Trading

Very good you got a live account, just make sure you can trade 1 pip = $0.01 or something like that, so if you loose 100 pips then you are loosing only $1, trading is all about consistency, and take every trade like if you were playing big money, try to get that mindset, do this for a few months until you can develop a system that fits you, think that right now you are in search of the "eureka" moment.

Very good advice ayato,

I have been trading with .01 lots, and plan to untill i hit 400 pip mark.just stay with my system and i think i will be fine



Thanks for the reply

If you continue to be on a great track, consider starting a journal on here.

Good Luck

Thanks WHTenn,
I use excel with metatrader, to keep track of all trades, so i can apply charts and ect...I will post weekly so that other may critic my system, or offer helpfull hints, and ideas.

Why did you decide to go Real at this point in time?

Eur/Usd is currently chasing lifetime highs and has been relatively easy to predict for the last couple of weeks.

Not intended as a damper, just a caution.
