{quote} no money, martingale, many accounts, and latency arbitrage. are these all accusations you can come up with after 20 years of trading? Clearly, you have not seen enough to open your eyes. Many friends from FF in the past did the analysis and digging on my accounts and tried to figure out how I was able to do it. They did far better than you and all of your false accusations today.

i dont try to figure out, i see only you are very unsuccessful trader and try to present worthless accounts.
easy to see you are loser longterm, but want present something.

but more i dont know, how you fake it (so many methods ) to get useless low money account simple percentage , is this important your method? its a worthless method, why i should try figure out. thats like someone who cant trade ask me to find out how he trades... thats insane.

{quote} you are insane.
why? all the time you tell me not to ask About strategy, dont guess about it, dont find out.... and same time from beginning i told you i am not interested in such a loser strategy to cant produce stable wins over many years and you need many fake little money Accounts that you even can present one survived account after many attempts. this strategy you all the time think someone will be interested in.... thats what i call insane.

you should not imagine someone can be interested in a strategy with this low winning chance and bad result. percentage is not always a measure value , only possible to use with bigger accounts (when someone has to lose something when the account is gone, your account is like a normal demo account with this low money inside). you should really start to learn first math standards about trading, then you will not try always present useless accounts with high percentages in a loser strategy. anyone can have your results, but most would not lose time for such useless results, why someone should? look where you stand now after so many years, still at the beginning and you did not develop the trading habits for stable consistent wins so you can bring more money in a account. maybe some day you start transform you from a gambler in a trader and make wins.

so all best to you.

we can all the time speak about fact and numbers and math and calculations and habits and so on. but you need to look in the mirror and accept that trading this style like you do will not win money, it will lose money and only present some survived account with some percentages (even bad for show off because without big money in noone would see this account as real account). there are some rules that need to be accepted or trading bigger and bigger will not be possible (when you dont want go all in and be at high risk all the time). and sound like you want get a trader some day and dont want quit trading, thatswhy you write in this thread, or?

we can also delete our textes here if you want, we did more a personal conversation here then big context to the thread.

damn. the hating is out of control here.

It's either your gut is experiencing some level of discomfort, or you just care so much about how I trade with my money and what I do with it.

Thank you for your concern. I think I do just fine.

People shouldn't be trading forex in the first place.

I can only assume you mean "stocks" and I can further assume by your comment "Stocks only go up" that you have never traded them before. Because if you had, you would know that stocks go down just as easily as they go up, and normally a lot faster than they go up. They can also go to zero, something currencies can not.

I think if you give up trading, your a fuckin COWARD.

You lack commitment to find the right process to become profitable.

Just say I am not committed, I have no self belief.

Thats the real issue here, you lack confidence and are looking for an excuse to end your trading journey right now. I can say that because I thought that at least two times over the last 20 years.

I was the problem, and I fixed the problem by raising my level of commitment. Once you raise your level of COMMITMENT, you will see a pathway.

I’m no coward, you shouldn’t be one either

This is probably a stage where many people have reached, and it’s a stage where many people have actually quit trading Forex. It’s very easy to get to that stage and to say, “look, I’ve tried everything, I’ve put all this time, this effort and this money into doing my best I can to try and learn how to trade, but it’s just not working for me”. I reached that stage after about two years and I kind of felt I was going around in circles which is something I’m sure you can relate to if you’ve been trading for a couple of years. So when I reached those...
You haven't mentioned what is the root cause behind not being able to make money. In my case it was discipline, discipline, and
discipline. Unfortunately, over the years we develop bad trading habits that become harder and harder to get rid of. Trading the plan is the key.
