I wish I could listen to music when I trade. I must listen to my wife, who`s always wanting something from me It`s so annoying that I`ll have to go with swing trading. I love Her to death anyway (who would be able to spend my money so fast?)

Marriage: the only place where stop-loss doesn’t work.

Hello Guys my Name is Muhammad. i started this thread because i got banned by lot of threats, when it comes to money, the hell this piece fo paper creates emotions, Joy, Sadness, anger, so when sometimes if they dont like what you are saying they ignore you, anyways. in this thread no one ever be ignore, just 3 rules, 1: share your opinion, 2: dont post screen shots of the trades, Just the charts (because i have been here for long ong time i have seen how it effects new traders, they see trades and think they can do it too with high leverage we...
Nice thread, Muhammad. I like the idea of sharing opinions and charts without the trade screenshots, keeps beginners from chasing unrealistic gains. At the end of the day, trading is mostly about managing risk and understanding the market, not just making quick money. Looking forward to learning and exchanging ideas here.

We need to be very alert with prop firms, here we can put the companies that you consider to be a scam company, the biggest problem is that they are not regulated, they use tricks to make you lose. If you have or consider it to be a trick, report it here so that we do not fall into the trap. 1. Slippgees are very common, you buy at one price but they move it and give you another price, so your goal is very far away 2. They close trades without authorization 3. They tell you that you are a copycat of other people (this case happened to me) These...
Good point. With many prop firms not really regulated, traders need to be extra careful. Things like slippage, random rule changes, or payout problems happen a lot. It’s always smart to check real trader experiences and especially the negative reviews before joining any firm.

Welcome to Prop Firm Hub 2.0!!! Over the past 5+ years, the prop firm space has evolved quite significantly. It has reached a point where I and many others felt the need for a new, revamped discussion on the subject. For those that have been around the entire time, FTMO, although not the originators of the space, quickly grew to be the largest. To this day, they are still considered the standard of excellence in the forex prop firm world. We also witnessed the birth My Forex Funds and when they introduced a similar 2 step challenge to FTMO, with...
The prop-trading industry has changed a lot over the past few years, and as many firms came and went, traders are now focusing on reliable ways to access and scale remote trading capital while sharing real experiences to identify trustworthy opportunities.

Hi I am new to Prop Firm and I recently heard about prop firm and want to understand more on this topic. May I know where do I start? Which topic shall I browse in the very first place? Thank you!
A good first step is learning about evaluation models and trading rules so you know what to expect before applying.

Nice idea starting a journal like this. Keeping all trades in one place really helps to stay organized and review your progress over time. Since this started in 2023, it would be interesting to see how your swing and position trading approach has worked out so far. Looking forward to your updates.

My 46th journal starts here, probably it will be the last one. This time for the whole year 2026 not for every Quarter as I did last decade.
Nice to see you still journaling after all these years. One journal for the entire 2026 should make it easier to track everything.

Currently looking for a reliable forexbroker wich has Bitcoin based accounts or at least accepted Bitcoin deposit and withdraw..
Crypto deposits are becoming more common with forex brokers now, especially Bitcoin. The main thing is to make sure the broker is reliable and has a smooth withdrawal process. Fast deposits are great, but withdrawals and overall reputation matter much more in the long run.

Hello, Do you listen any music while you trade? I have tried with many different kinds, but I think classical music is the most appropriate to remain discipline focus and calm . I found the following online recource to be very helpfull. http://www.forexmusic.com/ B
i personally don’t listen to music while trading because it distracts me.

It’ll be interesting to see if the US marines attempt an invasion of the island . This pivotal event could potentially change the course and trajectory of the war . The Iranians will be prepared for such an eventuality , the body bag count on the US side will also be a contributory factor. It appears the Iranians have far outmanoeuvred strategically their adversaries . The Achilles heel and potential to stop the flow of Oil globally is exerting untold pressure on the US and Western societies , giving major leverage to Iran . As yet , no viable solution...
It’s definitely a complex situation. An invasion would carry huge risks and consequences for everyone involved. At this point, it seems more likely that both sides will try to avoid a direct escalation, because the global impact, especially on oil supply and regional stability, could be massive.

Daytrading equities during the internet stock and tech stock boom, with good tools, my "edge" was huge. We had 10 to 1 margin, option hedges allowing legal shorting on down ticks, and fast execution systems. During volatile months over the course of a year, it was quite common for even the weakest traders in our office to do 50% to 80% on our equity per month scalping. I just finished reading The Fool's trading journal here on our site, check it out. "4% a Day Forever". Many people posted that 4% a day average is an impossible dream, perhaps rightly...
Yeah honestly, 4% a day sounds great but it’s not really realistic long term, steady, consistent gains with solid risk control is what actually works.

This sounds less like help and more like pressure tbh. Taiwan is already lining up other energy sources, so it’s not like they’re desperate. Linking energy to “reunification” just makes it feel more political than practical.

Hi opened a demo and would like to hear some comments {image}
Yeah, demo is just like a practice phase before going live. You get to test stuff without risking money but real trading hits different once emotions are involved.

Hello... How come that I have read in many places, that fridays is not a good day to place trades??
Fridays are kinda unpredictable, so many traders just take it easy.
