PA of NQ these days is the one that I try to avoid. Gold is hard for me too. RTY and YM move far cleaner. Shoutout to Monty who trades extremely successfully YM. I'll focus my attention to it.

250 point 5 min DOW candle
Dow retraced, think it may make an afternoon run back up. Trying to catch another move up.

Maybe it depends on trading style. I scalp most of the time and I think you go for bigger targets than me.

Thank you.

Don't you think that's quite demanding? I once read somewhere that a good annual return over drawdown is 2:1. Here it would already be 2.5.

Then I took a look at the currently leading Darwin "THA". This has a total return of currently 778.51% since January 2015 and an average of 25.70% annually. With 31 million euros under management, this generated around 820k in performance fees (no idea whether before or after taxes).

If you divide 817k profits by 9.5 years you get around 85k annual earnings. Doesn't that sound like the jet-set trader life that people like to portray? People earn similar good in other areas too. Shouldn't the risks and effort of such a trader be FAR better here? Even though very few people can boast almost 10 years of constant success as a trader, I wonder if that represents his entire business model with Darwinex

-Yeah. Movement during NY session can be overzealous at times. We saw price ultimately reach crucial areas and then bounce off. Things felt a bit premature. I didn't expect to see such a strong run-up. Now we are seeing a strong correction.

This hourly candle has potential to go up so bought it right at ma200

{quote} I agree. Although, they do cap payouts and it looks like forever.
capping payouts is exactly why this model could be more sustainable than the rest …

{quote}-I would personally avoid. The vulnerability level seems high. I suspect that their model will not be sustainable. Website and domain choice is not great. News trading is allowed, so I expect a lot of abuse. Not listed on Quantower's connections page and no mention of providing full licenses etc..
all the other props are on Quantowers connection page ? You have a link ?

{quote} month end approaching dow be going crazy
Yes sir. Dow was bullish a few hours ago. Now the 4H,
Daily and weekly candle are now bearish big time...

My lot size is puny but at least this time I know I will be able to withdraw my profits whenever I want to.

Yep, end of month is usually like this. Early sell off into the close.
Trade with confidence, trade without fear.
