{quote} vasily, let me educate you how to close ten thousand live trades for about 250 ms, dear. you calculate all buys and all sells and open one single trade for the net difference. i sense you will have hard time following me, so here is an example: 5,500 buy trades, 55 buy lots total. 4,500 sell trades, 45 sell lots total. all you need to do is to open ONE 10 lots sell trade and here you go. now, you can do partial closure, one against each other, using the multiple close by in mt4. at the best spread available. you wait for a low spread (according...

To be clear, I do not believe you suck, and it does appear that this account is legitimate and growing. However, the methods are suspect in the area of overall risk of ruin. One of these days you are going to get caught in a fast market moving against you and are not going to get out clean. Don't fool yourself and think you are doing something that has never been done before.

Answer us this:
How are you mitigating loss?
Do you deny having at least 17 full lots open yesterday? Don't tell me some of those were closed because all those positions were opened as price moved against you (which is a function of this trading strategy), they all were in drawdown.

Honestly, I'd take out your initial deposit and roll with your trading...just be aware that you risk losing it all and more.

DEFINITION of 'Arbitrage' The simultaneous purchase and sale of an asset in order to profit from a difference in the price. It is a trade that profits by exploiting price differences of identical or similar financial instruments, on different markets or in different forms.
Those are all buys Einstein.

Yeah, I noticed this yesterday as well on some of the eur/usd positions. The trade explorer was reporting some odd pricing. I watched the positions open up as price moved against the buy positions. Arbitrage does not make sense, the explorer reports activity from one account. Regardless, the strategy here is to keep opening positions as price moves against you, then you unwind them on the upswing........IF it comes.

Now that is interesting. Can there be a bug? Or is it - I really hope it is not by the way - manipulated? The broker is a decent one tough, how can that be possible?

@Goodboy Please explain what the reason could be to come clean when convenient, otherwise this is bringing some question marks.

He already mentioned about TE issue above. If you see Tuesday Entry Exit numbers, he had closed all the trades except these ones which are showing as float but in fact if you look at the unrealized profit/loss showing nil. These orders have been there since yesterday and not reflecting current price.

Come on guys give him a break.

TE issues are the least of anyone's concern here, its the actual trading strategy that is in question.

Well does it matter what strategy he is using. Obviously he is successful for the time being but on the long run, that's another story.

From my understanding, he is using morning and evening star pattern against S/R, either in 5 or 15min. And of course, adding orders as price move against him to average better price. Usually trades are done, slow moving market time unless of course when there are open trades already in negative. Again this is my assumption and I could be totally wrong here.

If he can do it now with whatever strategy, I am sure he can do it again, as long he is on top MM.

The amount of newbie-ness,jealousy has reached it's peak. Now you can understand why i was against Trade Explorer. These trades are closed since 24 hrs ago and they are still showing up as OPEN in T/E, appears to be a glitch. I have seen other users have similar issue with T/E not synchronizing some of the trades. Ask Rahul Guy, i feel bad for him. He WAS a good trader in his prime. But's he'll be ok. He inherited million, so it's no big deal for him. He'll comeback strong. He needs to stop the exotics, i told him.

I have just had enough of B/S with these guys. I try to ignore it as much as i can... It seems like, this place is full of newbies & losers. What am i doing here? i asked.

A lion amidst pack of wolves, its an insult. They can't beat a lion, so they'll just bicker & be annoying. So, there is no point of showing your talent here. I'll go to a place where they appreciate me and not look to find faults in me.

Lets end it here. Best of luck in your en devours

For the record: I started my account with $4,000 My Current Equity: $38,000+ (3800 % or 850 % you pick) in 3 weeks of trading.

If anyone's interested in the signal service down the road, you can reach me at my email.

PS: Thanks to the few real guys here, who showed support & respect. you know who you are...

Best of Luck.

Anyone noticed the sudden improvement of spelling and lack of smilies? Still some glaring grammatical flaws however. If you want to be taken for serious you got to show off your trade explorer and not pull that drama queen stunt every time someone is hating on your stuff. And we all know that "I am leaving" is just a bait to create artificial demand for goodboy to lure in more people.

I don't get this comparing to animals part. A lion did not do anything to be a lion, he was born as one and that's it. He did not start out as a zebra and after not getting eaten for 100 days got promoted to lion.

I also think asking 35% is steep for unproven performance, and calling people names who doubt you is not helping.

I understand and sympatise your situation man, some of the comments here were not even insulting they were plain silly. This one however really raised some question marks that's why I asked.
Anyway, thank you for taking the time to respond.

For what is worth, I found your thread and success very inspiring. I have no doubt that you will be offered a job pretty soon in an investment house. Good luck to you too. And well done.

if you're going to show stats, the other well known sites that does only stats for trading systems is much better and more respected for getting clients/selling services, also the site that makes mt4 software is ok as well..won't mention links because folks round here are very sensitive about that kind of stuff that competes with them.

I've been around FF for years and this is the kind of stuff that is pulled over and over again by people. Unfortunately, ignorant people actually do give their money to these types of ventures and almost always lose it. Legitimate traders enjoy these hard questions because they know they have solid answers, where the act of explaining their tactics is used to create trust. When a trader avoids answering them, they show their weaknesses. We may never know what Goodboy was up to, but what we do know is that he couldn't answer legitimate questions about his touted trading strategy or EA.

I am not feeling bad for him. He is that crazy person ranting antisemitic stuff on his blog.
If you want to be taken serious as offering commercial services you need to

-fix your spelling
-show your trade explorer

It appears you are using the "wolfs don't like me" as an excuse to make the trade explorer private again so if you actually end up with bad trades it can be hidden.

Also I think regular normal-sized wolves never see lions, lions live in Africa.
