Calculated the same spreadsheets some time ago and for me the numbers are really motivating. First i was heading the one year goal with nearly 100% per month, but for me as a 9-5 trader it is better to trade with a little less pressure and to aim for 30-40% monthly. You just need a little more money to achieve the target in the same time So you are trading every evenig the US session in the 1 min charts?! Looks like you often doing in newstrading?!
Great! I hope we all achieve our goals!

Thanks! We will both achieve our goals, if we stick to our plan and persevere

Hello TIM, Good Luck Mate !! hope you achieve what you aim for. You have inspired me to do the same. I 'll probaby open an account of 10k and go from there. If its not clear its not there
Nice one mate! Glad to have motivated you! Knowing this, has now inspired me to not let you down. Please, lets run this marathon together!

You're doing great! Good luck Tim, I'm following your journal. Did you do a time estimation for achieving your goal?
Thanks for following! Yes I have made an estimation of 1year and a month, if I am able to make 80% every month. Im not trying to force this target and put a lot on myself, but It would be great if this making much every time! I try not to think of how long it will take me, right now to be honest, I'm only concerned about minimizing my losses maximizing my profits and steadily growing my account.

EUR/USD trade today. Moved stop to break-even as soon as the trade was in my favor and eventually got stopped out. Managed to grab 21 points and bank 3.43 (0.6%) before the market reversed. Account now stands at £612.89. Fairly pleased with today's result as no further losses were made despite today being really slow. Anyway that enough trading for me today, I shall wait until tomorrow. How are you guys doing today, hope you are all grabbing those pips

Morning guys, Tim here with another trading update.

Traded the GBP/USD and managed to grab 250 points, banked 40.58 so far. I was tempted to hold on a bit longer, but I'm happy with the amount I made. I shall wait for other opportunities to trade.

I set myself a target of 4% daily return, well it seems that I have exceeded this target with this single trade (6.6%) , so until the end of the day I will trade smart and profit from small gains.

My Account now stands at 653.47

This is just the beginning guys and we have a long way to go. Remember that this is not a race, it is a marathon, we have to take our time with this. Always try to profit small gains, as opposed to looking for that BIG SHOT which RARELY comes by. Small gains add up in the long run as Tesco will say "Every Little Helps". Anyway, I'm off for a quick jog

Hope you all grab these green pips today

Congrats Tim!

Today I'm on the loser side, but I'll keep going!

I have a question: Isn't a 4% daily too high? If I made the correct count, you would achieve your goal in more or less six months. I wish I could do that!
Had to be me. Someone else might have gotten it wrong.

Hi,

How did you manage to enter this trade exactly during data release without any slippage? Does FxPro now execute stop orders at level that you enter? Normally there should be slippage as big as first tick, maybe 20 pips or more.

Best regards!

USD/JPY trade in action. Waiting for a move before I move stop to break-even. Right now, broker is trying to stop-hunt . Brokers love stop hunting .

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: 13:46

I closed the trade due to slow movement and grabbed 1 point, banked 0.28p . Managed to avoid a loss and my account now stands at £653.75.

How are you guys doing so far?

TRADING UPDATE.

Traded the USD/JPY and grabbed 261 points as my TP was hit, banked £39.93.

Managed to make £80.79 (13.2% return) today with three successful trades in a row!

My account now stands at £693.68.

Apparently, one member thinks I am a CHARLATAN, who thinks that my thread should be a place where you should come to have a good laugh when you want to take a break from SERIOUS STUDY, while another thinks my account will easily flop. I guess I must be a CHARLATAN with a lot of luck since my account is growing everyday Sorry to disappoint you

Hmm, I wonder where all these SERIOUS STUDY traders are to have a laugh at my thread
Please do help yourself to laugh all you want at my success

Best of luck to you but such a small sample is no reason for euphoria/calling it succes just yet right? I will be sure to hang around a bit. Always interesting to see how journals develop.
