1. I don't have a fixed stop loss
2. I'm using 60 % of my balance in a trade but I'm only risking 10-15 pips.
3. Right now it is about $127 so at Friday it should be about $150

Probably not because school is taking a lot of my time so I don't have so much time to sit and look at the charts. But I think I can do it in about a year.

I'm surprised you get so much time off from grade school.

Gambler, I'm not going to try to crush your dreams. Instead i'll offer a suggestion. Start a thread in the journals section and post your trades there before you make them.

What I don't understand is if you CAN turn $100 into $1M, why waste your time with school. Bring it, don't sing it bro!

You'd be better off throwing that money into your full-tilt poker acct.

Everyone has made up those excel sheets, if I double and double and double ...etc, I can be a gazillioniare in 3 weeks! One day you will wake up Peter Pan, and you will realize it isn't about getting rich quick, its about getting rich slowly.

Hi there. I have earned more than 25 percent of my account this week. Isn't that just amazing or is that just standard in this business? Do you think I should start trading for real money or should I wait.


congratulations!

but donīt get greedy by your first results. forextrading can be amazing, but also hard. train your disciplin and learn about correct money-management.

good luck!

Yes it is negative since I started the journal but since I started with my system (about a week ago) I have earned about 20%.

And by the way. I don't think school is a waste of time. The school will help me reach one of my goals which is to be a dietician, so I can help people live a healthier life. I'm tired of looking at fat people. They are ugly.

Easy after you made your 100 Mio in 2 years you can throw a round of free liposuctions for all of them.

I don't think that's the right way to do it. I don't think a liposuction will change their lazy lifestyle

how does their lifestyle matter


Every time they get fat again send em in for another liposuction, that way you won't see ugly fat people anymore.

You can do it


Coz by quitting school you'd get a head start and if you compound at the rate of 20% a week you'd be richer than bill gates pretty and i mean p-r-e-t-t-y soon. ...... duh

See but if you complete school and college then you'd be set back by that number of years and then won't have enough money to give em all a liposuction every time they get fat and you'd end up seeing ugly fat people.

So this way both your purposes are served ..... you've killed two birds with one stone ............ super rich ....and .... you don't need to see no ugly fat people anymore ...... you smart boy (or is it gal) ..... you

Gambler, how much do you think you can make by end of March? $100k? Let's see you do it. We'll pat you on your back; you can say, "I told you so." As above, post each trade and we can watch you succeed.

If anyone wants to know how I trade I'm willing to explain everything to them as best as I can.
Hi, Tjpld, could you explain, plz, a little bit more about your trading technique, for ex., time frame, set of indicators, etc.
A screenshot of your template also will shed some light
I feel that you are really good trader and read your posts carefully, and anticipate more to come.

Sure but I don't want to hijack this thread.
I use a set of SDX Channnels, Automatic. Fibos, Murrey und Camarilla Equation along with some other stuff. Shot me an e-mail. t.jp(at)gmx.de
The key to sucess is to not use an A -> B System where Indicators cross or agree and then you just jump in. This won't work because market changes and your indicators strategy won't adapt to it.
