You're welcome.

I think if you look at your broker statements, with most people starting out, the transaction fees (the spread multiplied by many trades, as you experiment with trade systems) will be a large multiple of the total account size one starts with. That's how the brokers make money off numerous small accounts.

Think of 3 starter accounts, say, of $250. If your total spread costs are greater than $250 in several months only (which is very likely) the brokers has just made more than 100% return on your account in a few months only (that's 100's % return in one year off you). They can make big money off 1,000s of accounts each trading 100s of times.

And this is a 100% accurate sys. LOL!

Thank you bit9ret and Rob Mondave for your response. I will defiantly be looking into your reference material and try to understand this.

....In my 6 months of forex even though I have only managed to loose my $250 mini account more than once, I still don't think brokers make a large portion of their money by new traders loosing money, because new traders will never get to buying a 1 standard lot, so all the money lost cant be very large, or can it?

I can pretty much guarantee that you'll be blowing up a lot more accounts until you get it right

Before anyone else points out that the losers outnumber the winners, you should probably read this:

The equation is simple // MPR = ∑L < ∑ G // when L mean LOSS ,G mean gain M and MPR mean market possitive return




lose less than you win,, given the facts the market is highly uncertain you are prone to error or plainly wrong. You are going to make mistake and this have nothing to do with your inteligence. go with the trend int the time frame you comfortable to to change your mad when you are wrong.
