Im in a pretty rare idealistic camp about leverage ...my background is in realestate deals...so Lev is the way. This gig is so much easier with 200:1 lev...I was playin 10-30 lots on average and just slaying it... the lev helps u scale in...now at 50:1...takes 4 times as much capital....that aint so easy....In my opinion leverage is what takes the middle class to the next level....thats Y they changed it....


Like the 25K rule for daytrading in stocks....Y the fukk do I have to have 25K to trade more than 3 times in 5 days...its my $$$$

also...
Move your account to Australia..

400:1.. leverage...regulated.

You can keep your account in US$$ in US...

Only your trading account would be in AUSTRALIA...but the money if cashed will come back to US....

is that not allowed???

BTW.. Full Hedging is allowed there as well

also the hedge function is gone....and FIFO....thats the one that hurts the most
Wish I had an answer there, brother. All I know is I would/will move around the world until there's no place left that allows me to do what I like with my money. What do they want you to do with it...just go stuff it all in slot machines in Vegas?

Pity! I complain about MT4 all the time, but I'm still allowed to use whatever little bells and whistles it does offer. Have to think about you poor bastards next time I think about moaning.

At the O FIFO only applies if trade amounts are the same size. Easy squeezy workaround.

ive rarely seen it so hard to get a retrace. pa indications are never off this much.. bulls try and fail.. its like 2008.. 2009
Nice!

EDIT: ooops...meant the song...didn't see the bit below.

You're right. There's nothing so far. Not interested in countering EU...AT ALL. Fak...I'm just hoping to see 3220ish to start building shorts again. Been waiting ages. I've had to just keep sliding all my orders down for most of the day...no action.

I'm not 100% certain, Raza, but if US citizens CAN hold trading accounts overseas, the paperwork and scrutiny for the brokers by the US is a serious headache. A load of them just said...point blank...NO US citizens. I know for a fact Dukascopy did it recently...all US citizens had to leave. Atilla in this very thread had to shut his account with them. Not sure if it is now law...or just a pain in the ass that brokers don't want to deal with.

be careful.. she didn't show it yet. 3149 min is the pa target from 490x.. don't let one get away from u.. cause the big boys may close in that area.
