Quoting Kalbar

I commend your persistence and attitude and I am sure you will get there in the end. As someone once said 'try, try again'. I have been around trading for a while and on the verge of quitting but I am determined to keep at it until I make the breakthrough to consistency and profitability. Its the only wy to go,

best,

Kal
Why your story is the same as mine here Kal... but the difference perhaps lies on the consistency and persistence for getting any profit. I am just a type of person who cannot sit all day long in front of the computer, while my trading strategy is short term trade. So I guess, it's kind hard for me.

And for HipCio, Congratulation on your trading achievement. It is the fruit of your hard work and you deserve it. Cool!

Thank You Fred,

For us it is also a hard job - we read all he time what gains could we get ... and our profit does not look very impresive
but we decided to keep disciplined and trade only one method for a longer time. We will see what it will bring to us,

Thank You for visiting us,
Best wishes,

Our usd/cad has hit the TP - but did not close our trade (spread 4 pips)
and it was closed by trailed stop loss at only 34 pips profit,
as we risked 2% ($211,14=24pips sl) so one pip value was $8,79
so we gained $298,86

and our new acc. balance is: $10.855.94
