1000% return in less than a month
guys showing that it can be done no matter what the skeptics say
even if it is demo, real account can be 100% return (10% of demo because you will be more cautious and defensive)
if you do not take demo seriously enough, i doubt you can do it with real account.
just go to the demo leaderboard. large positions can be left open for 11 weeks, .......16 weeks.

the road map to trading success is
trading methodology 20%
psychological persistence in discipline and consistency 80%
took me a long time to realise that

Wow — 1000% in less than a month is no small feat. Even on demo, it takes discipline and good trade management to pull that off. Seriously impressive performance.

Many things are possible in Singapore where you are from.

Like this 1M36 which I hear quite often.

every trader has a dream
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...g-m1-timeframe
5 years ago i was no exception. but the dream has to be built on solid foundation, not somewhere up in the cloud.
https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...stency-getting?
now i can look back at those comments and smile.
the previous concept that i had has not change much, just a few tweaks here and there.
but now i have much more confidence in the application.
took me more than 4 years.

unfinish business...............
i had started a $5k live account in mid january this year. today it has grown to $13K.
maybe i can rekindle that "dream".
in 2 years' time if there is no news, it means that the account is no more around, or i am no more around............
or i will be in Havana enjoying life .......

on second thought, there is nothing to shout about.
gold is simply on the up trend due to the current geopolitical situation.

so this brought an end to the demo experiment https://www.forexfactory.com/thread/...and-resistance
https://www.forexfactory.com/news/13...-just-happened

reflections.
the account was once at $12k making it a return of 2,300% in one month.
position size was 0.01 unit per $500 account.
what brought it down was the number of entries made
0.09 unit x 4 unable to withstand a 2800 pips drop.
maybe the account would still be around if there were 2 entries only or 0.045 x 4.
so beware of position sizing and overtrading.

i shall be carrying out another experiment in february.
this time reducing position size to 0.025 unit per $5,000 account.
rounding up or down for 0.02 or 0.03 unit with maximum of 3 trades.

THE LESSON TO REMEMBER

use the time that you have to experiment getting a robust trading system for your own personality, what actually works for you
instead of browsing too many forums.

demo vs real account https://www.youtube.com/shorts/speXSrYAPZ4
A practical solution comes to mind.

The demo account can be set up as the master and the live account as the slave, removing the need to focus directly on the live environment. By using a trade copier, all trades taken on the demo account are automatically mirrored to the live account in the background.
This method can help reduce live trading anxiety, as decision-making remains in a psychologically “safe” demo setting while still allowing exposure to real market conditions.

this week trades so far.
with long bias, the trades are all buying trying to accumulate long.
in the process, many trades ended in BEs and also not letting the intraday noise to affect emotions with proper position sizing.
