100 Fold Challenge -> Interested? TEST yourself

uhm ok i thought was very clear to read the fxbook.com and easier for me to post since i no need to delete info i dont want to share. sorry for this!
is this below correct?
i dont remember from what starting and ending date i setup it, is just to understand if can be ok

@Participants
15th account martyred too (2 days back). Equity ended @ 1.86
Was once up >6 times.
Highly disappointed with trading this one (even more than the 14th one). Thought it to a viable germinating seed but didn't capitalize later.

GBPCHF..just chopped the shit out of account. Early on, played out as expected but PA was DAMN choppy. Even till this second...its just ULTIMATE Chop (scalpers delight though)
Picked up good entries for reverse trades, looking at constantly turning directional PA on <=H1 TF; tried some simple hedge trades too..
BUT it was just TOO MUCH chop..if you see its chart .....Didn't work out as expected, in the end!


Going live with 16th attempt.

(If this breaks before achieving the target, i would take a break for a while. I will be around for updates but have other important and relatively more serious issues at hand first)

@BBKING
See mate.. let me be clear enough. I try to as unbiased as possible and i have to make sure all rules are followed by everyone (including me)...THE SAME way! You must have read the thread by now to infer the same.
I am not sure what exactly you want to show and what u wanna hide and why , etc and neither want to know.

Your last screen-shot is also not permissible. Probably you are trying to make a simple process complicated.
If you wanna use mt4 screenshots: Here is a simple process:
1) Open your MT4
2) Click "Account History" Tab and right click on empty space and select custom history
3) Select the date of your deposit in "From" field and current date in "To" Field
4) Take a screenshot of all the trades (if they are many, enlarge the Terminal" window and then take screenshot)
5) You can blank out any withdrawal/deposit transaction codes, Order Numbers, Lot sizes, TP's and SL's only (if you want). You can't blank out traded instrument/symbols. There are limitations to what is being traded! (RULE G)
Just have a look at other participants posting screenshots...Say >THIS< and his consecutive ones...or say mine of 15th attempt!
6) Post the screenshot here every weekend at least
Thats it....i CAN'T be more clear than this.

Fact being....i never had to explain this to any other participant till now.
If you still wanna make it more complicated, its neither worth your time and effort and nor mine..explaining you the same.
Also no more queries/clarifications on this thing now on, in the thread.. You are free to PM me and i would guide you on the same, if you need more clarifications. EVEN If you want to bail out of challenge...you are free to ..many have (with whatever reasons they gave)
Not a big deal!

Hope that HELPS.
Regards!

i decided to leave the challenge.
reasons:
- i don't want to share my positions. (i left a broker for this) i mean what instrument i bought or sold at that time and price. sorry for this, i thought that since im trading with fxpro (which only includes currencies, metals and some cfd) there was no need for this. my bad, i misunderstood rules.
- probably i won't reach 2000€ which was my personal target within 03.02, since actually account is 500€ and thinking for 1,5k profits in 1 week is really possible but not easy and this week i will be very busy in other things.

sorry to take time.
good luck

I would like to join the 100 Fold Chanllenge.
Broker: Alpari, Leverage: 500:1
Initial deposit is EUR221.08. Current equity is 309.18.
For futher info, pls refer to my Trade Explorers

collapsed. disappointed. one more attempt in me - will commence it in coming days or weeks.

i'm starting over too.

3rd attempt/1:50/$15k/
I'm going to have a new explorer to track this new position size rule change.

will start tomorrow or wednesday. will inform.

Ok i'm in. Trade explorer linked.

@participants
- All updated Done
- 16th account martyred too (last week). Equity ended @ 0.58
USDCHF longs did the damage! As informed before, i will be off for a while(except if i see a good uni-directional PA opportunity). Updates will not suffer though.


- The following Participants who were informed of the rule violation of not updating the results, even after 1 week in >Post 291<
& further given 2 days time to do the same in >Post 297<, as they agreed to while signing up... have still not updated the same.
13) PrymeTyme
21) Mcdxxx

Given the fact that participants often miss/do-not-care enough to meet weekly update deadlines (those using screenshot options).. I invite views from participants whether update time period limit be raised to a fortnight or a month?

@ 4) EmeraldEyes
I am NOT updating your Stats as still awaiting info asked for in reference to the >Post 293< & >Post 297<

Yes. you REALLY misunderstood (in fact misread clearly written rules)
As you wish... Status updated.
Info added already. Your starting equity is 309.18 EUR
You are IN ! Good luck
Alright info added & updated. Keep it tight mate (Money is important too)
Good luck

Its pretty disappointing to see no updates, after i left off, for a while (been some 4 weeks from last update)

I see :
- No participant posted any screenshot account update.
- Some have blocked their account details(Equity and stuff) from public view.
- Some have not synchronized with their trade publisher.
- Some never replied to notifications on the thread or PM's


As asked for in last post,
I plan'ed/plan to edit the time period from 1 week to 1 month , even though never understand why participants can miss just once a week obligation of updating (that too for mt4 acc. screenshot users only). But looks like obligation of updating would be gone now with a new feature on FF explorer (Read below)


At last,
I would wait till Monday, 12th Of march 8 AM london time to change STATUS of each participant , as per rules/requirements, they agreed to while participating. If a participant is interested, he/she should do whatever is required according to the same.


Personally, Going live with 17th attempt.
Starting Equity: Around 500 USD
Broker: Fxpro
Leverage:500:1
Method of publishing : MT4 Statement/ History Screens-shots or Trade explorer

- Will update of complete details soon, before starting
- Yes, this time it will be a relatively large starting equity (wanna make some money.. lol)
- Will try to trade more precise entries with more %age of winners
- Support @ FF's trade explorer has informed me of implementation of the sought after feature we required from them , regarding this challenge. I am testing the same. Probably we would be removing Myfxbook (as it doesn't update in realtime; except a beta feature) & of course MT4 screenshot option(which won't be required now).
- If the above doesn't work fine, i still plan to post/update my trades in realtime, manually or automated in another thread or here itself. (Still checking Explorer feature)
- I plan to setup the chat room again, if some of you are interested or like interacting before/while/ after trading .


Hope to see you soon guys.
ACCEPT the reality, be it losses/profits,
EXCEPT the hiding,
EFFECT the change in you, if required, to flip over!

Alright
Going live with 17th attempt.
Starting Equity: 481.41 USD
Target Equity: 48141.00 USD
Broker: Fxpro
Leverage:500:1
Method of publishing : MT4 Statement/ History Screens-shots (As of now; Still testing T.Explorer)

- I and soon "We" all will shift to FF trade explorer as our only publisher soon, given the fact that a custom start date feature is now available (see previous post) and it has really improved in past, to a pretty detailed & customizable publisher with standalone Real-time live, trader-mt4 independent stat seeking from broker servers
- One more thing, given the fact that this is a relatively larger starting equity for what i usually do, i will be "Milking" this account as per "Free account" concept, quite a bit , as and when profits build up(if they actually build .. ) & as per calculative discretion.
- Of course, making the account free and then waiting till 100x target equity and failing in between would be emotionally painful (intensity varying upon the stage where account busts), in the absence of profit milking & doesn't go in line with the free account concept i follow (& mentioned a few times within the thread too)

EURGBP
- It looks very interesting to me for trading purpose
- Technically, 0.8380-8390 is just been hit after that previous rally to 8505 on 24th feb. Important Resistance level
- IMO Same 0.8380, current price, is a very good level to short this pair (on higher timeframe's like D1 and W1)
- Personally, Just took some positions in it (and adding)
- Will post some charts regarding it soon.


Lets WnWatch

Friday was one hell of a bumpy day !
Out of total 16 failed attempts, 2 or 3 attempts are those which i would try to learn from given that fact that i hated my inability, at those times, to capitalize on the profit management/moves of the pair i was trading and
out of those, i would rate this 17th attempt the most disappointing one .
17th attempt gone... after trading so well early on.. Account was once up >4.5 times(Float)

As posted of GBPUSD shorts were booked for quite a profits... & was waiting for entry on same levels, after it retraced back up to 1.5830's. Overall,at last the bias played out with a 150+ pip down move
BUT as posted, i shifted my focus to EURGBP shorts. Played out well for a 25+pip down move to 1.5660's but the quick retrace move up drained 25% of capital (& the largest loss was at the point-matching HIGH of the day...darn).
Reentered again with strong bias... went down very quick for 50 pips this time (hitting lows at 8340's @ NFP ) ......& a darn spike up again.
Did some mistakes too as far as position-sizing per order is concerned .

Statement (attached)





EURGBP
As posted, I am highly bearish for this pair (for higher TF's like D1, W1 and MN).
If we do not see any major political/fundamental issue/news providing any UPWARD bias to this,

ANYTHING above 8375 is a VERY-VERY good level to short...and sit-tight !
(Have been building some good shorts around this level, in my non-aggressive trading accounts )

Major supports/targets being 8320's , 8220 and 0.8000 at least !
Some higher TF charts (i saved early friday) to post, for EG traders to ponder upon (attached)

Attempt 7 is a go! Deposited funds to bring remaining balance to $200.00

Look at that As expected and posted... . Pure PA play (except that it broke for 20 pips above 8400; Didn't expect that)
Only gripe is...dang.. i missed the real action of this move , which i wanted to catch in previous attempt to another entry to HOFTL Seriously, i would have been >80-90 time in equity by now. (I made a good %age in my conventional trading account/s though)

As posted, Supported around 8320 for some previous 16 hours
Has broken that. Currently @ Monthly low @ 8294 !
Next support level would be around 8240-8220's, before more stops of longs get triggered (sooner or latter)

If for some reason (mostly news related; given the fact its ATR is increasing quite a bit from mean normal) hits 8350, IMO it would be SUPERB entry for shorts. 8320 will of course be another good level of the test of neck of bearish HnS, which in simple pattern terms is 200 pips long (8320-200=8120)

Lets WnW

@Trumpcard
Alright. Updated stats.
Would advise using FF trade explorer, we are soon moving it to COMPULSORILY for all, so that posting screenshots and stuff and done away with (It has a start date feature now; in settings. Try that out. I am also trying)

Also, you got more time now to post your trades and analysis, if you want to

@Participants
- In absence of any updates/replies from some participants, many status have been updated, as per rules (with reasons against ID's).
Anyone having issues with that, simply PM me.
- Some updates have been posted, including Rule "R" edit. Kindly See updates for more & let me know of any concerns.

Perfect point-precise retrace to 8350 and kicked back down.....
Currently counting 8297 and ready to test previous low of 8294. (with very good momentum on lower TF's )

If breaks effectively, next station should be 8282 weekly support (some PA confluence too)

Let's Watch

I just realized I am disqualified. I,m sorry but did not mean to privatize the money and lots, just the current orders and trades. I always see everything cause I'm always logged in, so didn't realize.

Few things first :
1) Is it my mistake or something i need to check .....or yours?
2) I even informed the same here in >Post 309< on Mar 8 (& i have seen you browsing the thread also).
3) As per the info in the main post, the starting equity on Jan 30th 2012 was 15469.78. Going by the total deposits in your account around that time(as can be seen currently) this no. doesn't add up. how would u explain that? (Misc. Transfers are not the issue here.. i am sure that's interest in Oanda accouts)
AND
I am sure, you remember that you already were on "Re-allowed" status


P.S. Though i never named any participant in the post...as i was bit sad that most didn't update at all, after i took a "informed" break for a while. A participant was in fact trying to fool me around via PM's (stating performance of a account different than what he/she started with). That's pathetic, given the fact what one gonna get from these false claims?

i hid the money/lots by mistake.

but from this post here's the history from that point...



and if you to my explorer, you'll can trace it back from 15581..(few cents off here and there due to interest)

i don't know what the confusion is..

but anyways..if i'm out..i'm out.
if i ever make to 1.5 mil, i probably make a post about it and write a book too

Just for clarification:

i opened a new explorer for my second attemp: see post # 306.

I transferred money from the old explorer to the new maybe that's why it shows up as deposits? i didnt make any other deposits

that was on jan 30th.

But just for sake of the math

My expoler on jan 30th
$16679
- 1098
-110
= 15471- that's my starting point (very close to what forexsaint had 15469...give or take.
