Go for armadamarkets or icmarkets. Armada is the best though.
Thank you for your recommendation.
I checked out their disclosure documents, they don't sound regulated to me.
It's cute that they put two directors' photo on their website, although I don't think their looks can attract new traders, not female trader like me anyway.

Traders life is definitely lonely life. Will it be happy or sad depends on it will he earn or lose a lot of money.
Lonely is fine, I don't mind lonely, I've got a very chatty hubby at home.

The life of a professionally trader depends of the individual. The professional traders at the firm I'm mentoring at has a few traders who only trade the New York and London sessions then go home and hang out on the beach for the rest of the day. Their are also traders who trade most of the day after they leave the office and wake up at 4:00 AM to trade the Asia sessions. Its about what you choose to do with your time. It also depends on your definition of happiness. If your trading for the money and the lifestyle the money will bring, that's not...
You are mentoring professional traders!
This forum attracts very very few professional traders let alone mentors of them!

You only have to control your emotions! That the secret to have a great succes!
Cheers
I don't think I can overcome my emotions, that's why I developed a system which is cozy for me. I don't get pushed around by my emotions any more.

Emotions are why I'm not a millionaire yet, odd I'm a fairly lacking in emotions kinda guy in every other way.

I've read similar sentiments on this forum so many times, it's really concerning. Don't let it take over your life. As much as people on this forum don't like to call this gambling, this game can be addictive, just like gambling. You need to be able to switch off.

There is a big world out there. Go out and enjoy it.
oh, yes, I agree, it is very addictive!
I only went to beach twice this Christmas and New Year holiday (yes, our Christmas is always in summer), and I had to be dragged to beach from my charts.

I haven't had time to read the whole thread but if what you say is true you may well be getting into the wrong business unless.......

1. You build up your system
2. Build up your self discipline
3. Adjust your attitude to cope with the invariable losses.

good luck and don't chuck the day job until you are easily profitable, if ever.
Thank you for your kind advice.

I read an article about a guy got picked up by some legendary trader and groomed him.
The article said that there is no secrets of success in this game other than being patient and psychologically strong.

Interesting......
Maybe you can shift your emotions to some other places, like watch a boring drama on TV and weep for two hours before trading.

I watch mainly American TV. Comedy, Sci Fi, Action type stuff to stop the boredom so it's pretty close.

Really small, fixed SL's I can't easily alter as I removed the column from my system to do so, seems to be my solution and hiding the Profit / loss figure to Otherwise I'm a persistent SL mover which rarely ends well.

I do agree with this bit, however;

'there is no secrets of success in this game other than being patient and psychologically strong.'

No, not the secrets bit, perhaps Peter, but being patient and psychologically strong are two very important criteria... (imo)

8 years!!! are quiting ? why?
Sarcasm, with my ability to place a trade then the trend to change and get SL'd I likely should quit it's really quite uncanny.


But no retreat, no surrender ever, spent to much time and money to get to where I am and I'm sorted if not for terminally bad luck*!!
