i can't believe what the bulls are doing right now. Unfucking believable. I was hoping for a runner. Will have to settle for about 50 pip gain if these fuckers keep pushing the price up.

Well, looks like the Bull'shitters are finally backing off a little. I think Price will hover around 1.3000 end of day. But my cut off point would be around 2pm CST.

The retracement to the mid of that news move was a perfectly normal occurrence. We are stuck between the low from yesterday and the low from last week. If the low from last week isn't broken shortly after London close I certainly wouldn't wait until 2PM central to exit.

my exit would be around 1.3000. If it's not hit by 2pm..i'm out.

i like to believe that once london is closed...they will hit a new low for the day...that's just me

That happens a lot but we are above last week's low and that is pretty strong demand. Need to break the level or it is going up.

Last week low is 1.30004. If broken look out below maybe as low as 1.2850/1.28.

{quote} you are right. It's like trading the trend. You see it, but you don't know that as soon as you enter...will it continue? It's a tough market. I feel like i'm just geting the cold deck this month....i'm still following the rules. WIll just have to grind this until i lose everything or something will turn over. one of the reasons i withdraw my profits regularly. AT least at the end of this i can at least say-i didn't let all my profits went to the toilet and got out with somethng. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w80elfBicqk

{quote} Well March is over but i still have an open trade. My strategy as it stands now is to just carry over open trade until next session. When i backtested this, i didn't take into account holidays except for christmas and new years. So i'll stick to that unless over time i learn that this is going to eat into my profitability. As far as clients go...well, most of them are gone. Yup. Most clients i had left around mid march -except of course couple of family members who i can force to stay . Rapa even dropped me as one of the "Famous five"....

Just a few examples because in my opinion myfxbook autotrade should dump TPOTRADER's ass for his high drawdown rate of 38% nobody wants to bet near 50 percent of their account who is trading over 100k. This clown is on here exclaiming he is going to hit a new equity high after he almost took his client base off an equity cliff. The people I follow have systems where they make more than double their risk consistently.

What about those who only wants to bet $5000?

For fair comparison, you should remove those Myfxbook examples with less than $10,000 deposit (based on RAPACapIntro criteria) by the signal provider. TPOTrader currently has $30K on the line. Your examples had couple of guys risking only $1K to $3K spare money, so based on your rational of investing $100K, would anyone trust those guys? The $11K profit withdrawals by TPOTrader is even more than what those guys risked.

Don't beat me up, I personally am not invested with TPOTrader but enjoyed watching his trades (ups and downs). So I'm not defending him and you can go ahead to bash him. But I rather you deal with that parasite MPC no-balls Adam and his 15 threads.

You might like to add this guy to your watchlist, initial deposit only €300.

One dollar or a million I could give a shit. I only care about how they manage their individual lot. i only have beef with signal providers who have drawdowns that look like hell. That Adam dude has a decent looking basket of accounts with low drawdown but his gains arent where i would like to see then yet to qualify for my watchlist.
