Depends what your definition of a slim gain is

Your been doing this a long time I guess already, whereas Im basically still very much a n00b finding my way. Out of interest - whats your target risk/gain per day?

(Edit: Point made above about our place in the market is true too - were just here to provide some extra liquidity for the banks... nothing more).
i use 0.1 lot to stay safe... as you can see from SNB 1000 pips in few minutes...
when i use stop loss risk/reward ratio is above or equal 1/1.5 and when i dont use stop loss i just exit on my criteria so not alot of risk involved but also low gains

before 2008, i was doing 25% of my account... it means if you play with 100k you will make 25k, then the next month from 125k you will do 25% of the amount again so it was exponential... sadly i started 2k then reached 14k in 4 months with above average results in the first couple of months around 70% gain each... but then reached august 2008 and crossed my tested drawdown and loss criteria since 1999 so i stopped using it... i lost 5k in august... so in the end i withdrew 8k...

i was expecting in august to get to around 17k but then the miracle stopped working ... shit happens they say

I AGREE WITH YOU that some currencies have lower possibilities to be manipulated because they are alot more universal and distributed... i think JPY and CHF are two monsters... i saw many illogical before in the pairs of these two in particular... also GPB is a beast because of BoE......

probably euro and usd is the most decent pair but still...

in the end... is it worth to be trading and wasting my time for a slim gain every week?? grrrr
depends on how you look at it. Are your monthly profits enough to sustain you??? If yes, then it's worth it. Else, change your occupation.

why?
Problem with many people here is that they don't ask most important question: "WHY". Why do you make this trade, why i think this trade will go that direction. If you don't know the answer or you think you do but most of the trades are still negative then there is still much to learn. I have said that to many guys but they still rush around like chickens without head.
