No strategy works or will work sustainably. This market is chaos. It's the market makers, the big institutional investors, who decide the direction and its changes of direction. It's unpredictable. Following a trend, snagging a few pips, won't be enough to be profitable in the end, after a year. Only the market makers are winners. There are no small players like us who are truly profitable after a year. On this forum and others, there are some very clever strategies (on the H4 timeframe at a minimum), but none are truly profitable over a year. There...

Nothing works. Nothing works truly profitably and sustainably. There are thousands of strategies on this forum. Not a single one that involves taking the risk of playing with real money. All losers in the end. Sad reality
I've been trading forex since 2005. Before that, I traded the Nasdaq, the NYSE, and the CAC 40. And I've been following this forum since 2012. I've had periods where I traded with real money (and ultimately lost). I've tried various systematic strategies. I maintain that there are no truly reliable and consistently profitable long-term strategies on this forum that are worth using with real money. But everyone does what they want with their money... Does George use in real live his own strategy? Good luck. You'll need it Bien amicalement Jean-François...
{quote} No, not in short-term speculation. Nobody ! I don't know anyone who's made a profit, either on this forum or any other. I'm not talking about winning 3 or 4 times like our friend Enoris... But in one year with trade every day ! Cheers

{quote} It's also great fun to go gamble and lose at the casino! Or on the forex market with clever strategies, but on a demo account. Thanks, I'm definitely enjoying life and my happy retirement. Cheers Sir
Now, here, please back to Golden Cross Thanks
It’s not the screen shot of a demo account. This is one of my funded Prop Firm Challenge accounts, and this was its position a few minutes ago. I have redacted the information just to show the current postion of the trades.
It’s the power of Golden Cross Trading.
I am trying to be consistent, sticking to one method, and resisting the urge to change it.
I know I have made mistakes, but I have learned from them and I continue learning every day, trying my best not to repeat those mistakes. I am not perfect, and I know there are seniors here with 20x or even 30x more experience than I have. They are experts, masters & gurus, I cannot compare myself with them.
I still need to work more on my HEALTH first , then on my overall mindset and money management, so that I can use these Prop Firm funds to their full potential.
Best of luck.
@ ENoris Okay, great, we'll talk again in a year. The only way to quickly determine if it's a profitable strategy or not is to automate it. Ask a programmer to create an Expert Advisor (EA). Cheers SirJean-François
George has mentiioned in his previous posts that he is working on an EA version of the Golden Cross , hopefully once its ready he will release it like he has released Golden Cross Indicators.
Stay happy, healthy and blessed always.
Happy PIP$ to you.

{quote} Unfortunately for a reliable backtest you need the EA to be programmed in MT5. But Swingman won`t use MT5. Kind reagards
Only after you are convinced that @SwingMan' version of his of Golden-Cross using 2LWMA-Openand-Close (post#1) work in history then your next step is to forward test LIVE the next 2 to 3 years 36 months with prop firm demo money.
I did the same with Trading Made Simple(r).
see this post #10,290

@le celte
Without a WINNING EDGE it is highly unlikely that another year would make the difference. @ENoris is a new trader who started less than one year. He still has a very long way to go to complete 1000 trades or at least 3 years 36 months of active real-time trading. I have seen often here in Forex Factory new members making claims of success only to disappear from FF after 12 to 24 months.
There is no truth 90-95% of retail Forex Trader eventually lose money.
Some brokers will tell you that between 75% and 85% of their traders will lose money in their first year of trading.
How many will eventually lose money and close the accounts are higher. That's the churn rate of traders.
There are many reasons why retail forex traders here lose money.
We ask the FF members and there are lots of reasons which most will fall in those categories.
90% of traders lose money
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...-true-or-false
98% of all day traders lose money
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...y-traders-fail
99% of traders lose money
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...ers-lose-money
99.9% of traders lose money
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...-no-discipline
among FF most distinguished members, this member @hanover gave a long list of 35 reasons >> click { here }
If members can identify the reasons for their failure to make money consistently, its among these 35 reasons and then find ways to work on them.

@ENoris
You hidden most of the trade details in that image.
Based on your last PM to me, are these trades taken on H4 and Daily ?
It would help others here learn from those trade entries and exits if these are according to @SwingMan' trading tools.

Keep long story short.
Which Prop Firm(s) do you trade with now.
Once again, will you post these trades on charts showing the entries and exits.
Are these H4 and Daily trades which you wrote in your last PM to me.

{quote} @Emmanuel7788, I prefer not to share any personal and trading details publicly, and I hope that can be respected. As I have mentioned earlier, I am currently on a break from trading due to my health and eyesight issues, and I will resume posting charts, as I have always done in the past , once I am fully back. I would kindly request you to please read my last post again, especially Point No. 3 , I wrote it very carefully to explain myself, not only for you but also for new members, so that expectations and boundaries are understood. Also,...
You can share with me privately since you have used PM with me before.
I am interested to know more details of these trades in your post above if these trades were taken on H4 and Daily based on your last PM.
And also which Prop firm(s) you are trading with.
