Anti-losses, sorry to hear that.
My comment was meant more in a light way. It definitely is not intended to negatively reflect on anyone.

If you are losing consistently, I hope it is not real money. I hope you are losing on a demo account. I crushed several of them when I first started trading, while climbing the learning curve.

I did quote I am losing $60 on the 19th of Apr...
So if there is anyone who saw it, and go opposite of me is winning...

By the way, losses went up to $200 now...

I too hope it is cos if that is a demo account, I would be winning instead as demo account can have unlimited new funds to counter losses...

Somehow through forex I can understand why the rich can remain rich if they manage their money properly... If it is a million dollar account, just need to earn a proper "salary" of said $1000 to $2000 a day, I think it is good enough to live a comfortable life...

Here are my targets for this week.

3130, 3147, 3170, 3182, 3202, 3232. I see range trading 3040 as the bottom of range, 3470 as top. 3540 main target, 3600 slippage where i will start considering shorts down to 2600 Not for April's monthmy bar without reaching the 3540 area first. Good trading, I'm back out!

3170 taken.
quoting a post that I made in the beginning of the week. Week was a good week. I have new targets now ending with 3015 Next week should be a good week. Have a good weekend traders!

Micho, it does not really matter the why or the wherefore of his trades. He's a winner. That is all that counts. I'm sure he is quite happy with his winnings.

Also, what difference does it make if the Sortino ratio increases. Personally, I think the best ratio is to have more in trading account this time month than I did last month. Mr. Sortino came up with a nice little ratio, but is it really incumbent upon anyone to have to use it? It's a measure. That's it! Not the absolute standard.


Quoting micho
looks impressive but based on his open trade he sold EURUSD at 1.3 and i dont know why would he do that... but once he closes this trade the sortino ratio and profit factor will increase... anyway, i will open my explorer some time with the live account after few months

True, but regardless how much is in it, if the trader is losing consistently, then eventually the account will be drained. Even 2% losses being consistently in arrears will drain a million.

its the most important factor, it measures risk versus return and how sustainable the trading strategy is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sortino_ratio

Micho, in its most simplistic form, the most important factor is to have a gainful live account. If someone is winning 80% of the time, what difference does it make if the RR is 1:2?
RR ratios. If you use the Sortino ratio in your trading, then good for you. Personally, I don't. Most good trades don't. So, tell me why it is the most important factor?
I worded it the way I did because all traders have their personal way of measuring their success. It's as simple as that. We don't live in a box.

thats not true...
If said using Martingale system targeting said $1500 per day with a million dollar account trading EUR/USD that shouldn't be a problem right?
I look through historical data as attached will be safe enough since 92% of the time the movement will not be more than 1.5 cents day to day.
