Well that's interesting, a week ago people were in denial that my account is REAL when my account 17K now my account sits at 32K+(almost double). After revealing the realness of account, everyone sort of ran away. I got a few boys wanting to participate & we'll set up soon on a launch date soon.

Seriously? is this what the crowd mentality here? If someone good comes up, you join in packs to deny him but if he turns out to be real then faces are bury faces in sand? Where is Soros? why isn't he talking anymore... come entertain us some more...

guess the question will be sustainability.... and if it is.. why would u ever need to trade for others..

you look set to make 1000% monthly.. even if on average, you achieve slightly less than a quarter of that return.. u will be a millionaire by june. keep this up you will be billionaire by mid next year....

good trading to you!

batman & robbin going around saving people from scammers. I like that, I can respect trader34 it sounded like he does mean to protect clients, understandable. From yourself Mr. Soros, i smell lack of knowledge of market w/ blanket statements & labels. Don't be quick to judge killer traders. There are some killer traders out there in midst of subarbs in indonesia/malaysia/instanbul who can even school goldman boys in the art of trading (lucky they got algos running). It's unfortunate capital of the wealthiest nation is being managed by the stupidest "financial professionals" in the industry (namely mutual funds). Stupid average joe is happy with anything above 1% as it beats 1% interest banks offer right? sure, come to the underground world of traders, we'll give you 1% next day.

Goodboy, don't let anyone drag you to the ground. You obviously have some serious talent there. Some of us may be a little more cautious since the account history has been quite short but you can be rest assured there are many following you and your success.

I had a very succesful trading period from December 2015 up until early Feb this year. I will be putting that on my profile as a trade explorer now - Explorer name "Miracle turned into misery". I reached more than 600% in less than 2 months however blew it up so easily still came out with a profit tough. People want to see steady return over a significant period of time thats all.

You can be proud of your succes tough, it is fantastic and I am sure you will land as a trader in an investment house soon.

Good luck!

It's much easier for people to say "Stay away from him" than it is for people to accept you as a good trader. Why is that? Well, mainly because those who bash you have failed so many times in the past. Notice the very guys who bash you, don't even have a trade explorer. Now you should simply focus on continuing your very good trading, and the followers will come.
You'll also have people ask you, "If you can have such a high rate of return, why not focus on your own account instead of trading for clients". Well then why do the "best traders" in the world work for a broker, instead for themselves? I myself am considering having you manage my funds, but I will sit back and see how you finish this week.

Thanks man, always refreshing to hear another one make it. I've been through the phase of blow ups too, every good trader goes through it, it's part of learning process. It takes time to learn from mistakes. Yep i see the "Miracle turned into misery" we live and learn, if you can do it once, you can do it twice. Just matter of patience n staying at it. As curly said to moe n larry, keep on sucking till you do succeed.

Hi goodboy
I 'm with you 100%. I think your trading style is good - nothing wrong at all in adding to winning trades. That's how to make a measly win into a big win.

haha Vasily, i like your analysis, gives others something to think about. Yes, lot of good traders in past have been great and blown up. I think we all know that, correct? I'll be winner regardless because i am not doing it to scam people. I do it, so we can all grow as a team. Pie is big enough, I make money you make money while sleeping. I get paid for my labor, pretty fair game of capitalism.

If i take it on the chin, i take it. I won't run away. This is just a journey. I won't comeback as "bestboy" i'll come as best girl because men believe anything a girl says.

Jokes aside.
Disclaimer: client should invest the money they CAN afford to lose.

nope no grids used in my trading. manual trading a bit of channels/trendlines/price action rest is timing it right & managing it.

Vasily, makes a good point, blowing up is a reality in this market. The BOJs the SNBs, all these are realities market throws at us but I try best to avoid news trading as much as possible. We only wanna attack markets from good levels not because of some news.

hmms.. grids.. stacking.. they the same thing... do it well, you reap crazy profits... one wrong large entry point kills the account...... even if technicals are sound when entry is taken.... actually... especially so when technicals are sound... tends to be more confident until it turns too big to kill off...

there are discrepancies in your posts and explorer if one looks for it... so we'll let the believers believe, and the non-believers scrutinize

Goodboy,

My criticism of you is based around 2 points:

First was the way you started this thread.
It was absolutely clear you intended to sell a service from the very outset. Yet you expressed a sheepish "how did that happen?" when you were assigned the commercial tag. It's just deceptive.
Then the first post declares that you started with 1.5k, and would soon need to withdraw money to cover student debt.
Well, your history says otherwise.
You deposited 4k into the account, and thus far have withdrawn nothing.
Something is wrong there, and regardless of your performance I would not entrust my accounts to you just on that basis.

That said, the second of my criticisms has been somewhat resolved.
You now have a TE which documents your trading.
Immediately I saw another issue, when your 1st post claimed you had a max DD of 4%. Yet...you have 83% DD.
So, why leave the 4% figure there? It's misleading.

All of that makes me uncomfortable, but I'm sure others will only see the % gain.

Overall, I don't want to come off totally negative. Your trading has yielded phenomenal results and you should be proud. Most importantly, you should take out almost all the profits!
Why?
Because inevitably you will come unstuck.
If you have already seen 83% negative equity, it means you are willing to sacrifice it all. I'm sorry, but it is only a matter of time until you blow up.
To me this isn't an acceptable investment risk.

I could easily critique your trading using the history, but it's not my place to do that on your thread, because I am not going to use your services.
What others do is not my concern. My concern with you was your initial hiding of intentions, and refusal to log a TE.
Well, you have the TE, and if people are willing to overlook the questionable way you have gone about this, and the misrepresentations of the figures and the short history of your trades then that's up to them.

That said...here's a real challenge for you:
Be the first! Be the one commercial member who maintains the same account TE with consistent results for 12 months. Prove me wrong in thinking you are only making hay in the sunshine of volatility right now.

If you are still here 12 months later, I will fully apologize and certainly give you an account to trade.
But as someone had already pointed out...if you keep doing this for 6 months, you shouldn't need anyone's money to trade, even now!
Wealth comes from what you keep, not what you earn

ı find you honest because you dont tell but answer when asked.thank you
you are actually managing risk where you think you can manage with some excel sheet models.in the infinite combination of market conditions you will try to survive with 10 excel sheet combinations.you are grid trading with a exceptance is if you feel it too risky you exit.at least this is the plan.but in real life you either cant feel it or it happens too fast and it finds you.
you have made 1K in to 20K if ı am not wrong.the question is why you wont go by you own but instead create a group of bunch of people where those will create noise and issues and problems for you.
leverage should be same.account size should this,broker work hours should match etc etc etc
2 reasons
you are working for broker where I dont think this is the case but a option
you are well aware of the day will come and you should be trading other peoples money on that day

when trading grid you can use any tool trendlines chanel this that no matter but the one thing dont change is averaging price agresively to reach the break even or closer in the case of failure

you and ı know soon one day it will happen because you are already trading over a month.you know your period sure better then me

green pips

"Disclaimer: client should invest the money they CAN afford to lose."
note : generally the investors risk 25% of their funds not 100%. this is called curcuit breaker level and generally stays around 25%

by the way ı like the "girl" idea...

trader34, ever thought of applying for the lawyer profession?. You'll do good. I can go on to defend myself your honor but then all this back n forth is unpleasant for you for me and the people here. Lets spare everyone, but for DD issue lets clear this because its a serious issue for all. The way DD works in MT4 is if you have a small account say you have a $1000 account if your down $884 on your account. Ok you have 84% DD great? right labelled a bad trader ...too risky. Say this same trader feels hmm this market needs more capital to sustain injects $3000 on that same mt4 account. Carries on trading for next 12 months makes a million with say 20% DD. What % DD will T/E or MT4 show on stats? that same 84% which occurred in beginning. That's what happend with me.

and this russian guy vasily? telling me i am using grid system? when i repeatedly said No? like how do i even counter that? come on you, come over to my house watch me trade physically with my hands

Makes me wanna put on a track
