would like to trade managed accounts for investors in the future. As of now, I'm running a 37% profit for the month of August.
Of course, it's always easier to trade someone else money. It doesn't hurt so bad when you lose.

Oh...? I've lost and made plenty of my own. But the business side of me says it's better to partner with others in this endeavor. You'll get more momentum from the start and others will be willing to take the risks, and the rewards, you just have to find the right partners. I have watched forums like this for years and no one seems to make any money, I have no idea why. You would think somebody would be winning at this business.

Everybody's got great ideas and theories but no one posts their trade history. At the end of the day, this is a business, no matter how you define it. You make an investment, you either make a return or you lose.

I'm here, I will continue trading, I will continue to share, win or lose and I hope to make a lot of friends.

Whilst it's great to see someone do well, and without sounding overly rude, I fail to see how posting trading histories has anything to do with this forum, particularly as the "guidelines" posted in post 1 were so clear.

At this time, GJ remains in the channel. It still appears ( to me) to have momentum to the upside. Maybe we'll see it climbing all the way up to the 4hr 200ema/sma before correcting.??

First, according to published numbers from Oanda 35-40% of their accounts is profitable so where does that leave you with "no one seems to make money"?
Second, a statement from a demo account tells absolutely nothing.
Even a live account statement tells nothing because I can make up a beautiful one in Excel.
So why don't you start making some calls here what you are trading? (In real time)

GJ is weak and might be up to downward retracement
I recommend you read something else as this sentence is now concluded.

It's hard to say at this point. If the price range breaks out of the channel, then we're headed higher. If it retreats, as it looks like it is going to do, then it will be a great short. Too early to tell yet. Don't forget, Japan has, and will conduct interventions to keep the value up.

hi. you are more than welcome to post your charts and trade ideas.
couple of things i want to make clear is that...

1. i'm completely against managing someone else's money, but it's entirely up to you and the people who are interested. i personally would not advise anyone to do that.

2. your past history shows very good result, yet you don't use sl? target?

3. posting live trade and managing trade can be very challenging if you are in the trade. me, personally, shut off everything while trading.

wish you a big success and hope you will find many friends.

ps. showing trade history, to me, is nothing more than a show off. it's entirely your business. noone else's. may be it's just me.

Hello PKimnyc,

Greetings to you! Managing accounts for others is something that I would like to explore in the future. I don't use SL but I do set a dollar amount target for close with the use of an EA to execute close(s) once profit targets are hit.

Typically, I set my trade and walk away or do something else. Like I said earlier, I have been trading many years and have learned to keep my emotions in check. So once I place my trade, I have confidence in it to close with a profit.

I typically do one or two trades per day on average, it depends whether or not the market brings me good trades. I wait for the best trades to set themselves up and then execute on them.

I post my trades, not for "chest thumping" but to give confidence to others that successful trades can be done. I hope that I can be encouraging to others and make friendships too.

Thanks for your welcome! Keep in touch!

point well taken.
wish you well and look forward to seeing your posts.

as for new people in trading reading this...
please, always set your sl and tp.
one wrong trade may be all it takes to wipe out your account.

I'm in now, Long @ 2.0 and 3.0 lots. Set to take profit and close trades at $141,000.00. That will be an approximate $4K profit by tomorrow morning.

Night all...

At this point, I've just got one lot on, waiting to add more. I'm in now, 2.0 and 3.0 lots.
Why do you sense the need to tell all and sundry about your financial position? Whether you have 0.1 lot in or 1000 is nothing to do with anyone else. And, frankly, it only serves to belittle anything else you may say.

The trader with 10c postions is no less important. What IS important is an open discussion on the reasons for being biased in any particular direction.

It's just my style so other traders who are learning can get the confidence of using those types of sizes.
