Hey Bro, i see that you were on a very BIG drawdown on your live acount so you decided to hide live acount explorer, this proves my previous post on your thread man, i honestly think you should take a week off from the forum and check yourself man, youre not emotionaly balanced and now im having doubts about you being a profitable trader because you are making all the rookie mistakes in the book.. If This thread is to teach noobs then why do you hide your explorer when youre going through Huge DD, why dont you leave it so they can learn from your...
If hiding the TE is the only way to get you to 'participate' here .... then your intentions are very clear!

You simply do not want to learn!

Gotcha!

Bro lets not be delusional here, since the start of both your threads all that you have been doing is loosing money and loosing trades, now its getting worse because it is clear that you are not a profitable trader and you have no control over your emotions whatsoever thats why when you start loosing lots of money you deactivate your live trade explorer because you are scared to loose and worst of all you are scared to reveal to the community that in truth you are a loosing trader, im not making this up man, its all clear, your trading stats speak for you.

Bro i think youre the 1 that needs to learn from me here, i have alot to teach you about trading and winning bro, thats what this community is all about, teaching and learning from each other, dont let your pride get in the way bro, i was humble enough to say that i have come to you in the past for some advice and you gave me very good advice, now you must be humble enough to take advice, good advice that is, and stop decieving yourself.

The exact opposite in fact!

Check the following account entries where I recovered the trading account by trading both AU + UJ pairs in a swift few trades.
A trading technique I apply to recover the account to its original state prior to taking the UJ cycle of trades.

Clearly this shows the exact opposite of what you imply.

I suggest you move on because your intentions are clearly to be disruptive!

You clearly do not wish to learn anything here and your intentions show a high degree of negativity.

Forum rules are currently being broken by yourself so I suggest you refer to the FF Rules.

You are no longer welcome in any of my threads so please move on!

Good trading,

Thanks Almo I know I do not have to prove anything but that guy really annoyed me.

I intentionally took the TE down and within a very short time who should post a comment but our old friend ...

No intention to learn only to make false statements and to cause disruption.

You gotta laugh though I find it funny now because I have plenty of artillery backed up by fact.

ps. By the way those trades are based on FIFO and I apply them all the time ..... [But usually lower lot to account ratio but I think you know why I did it .... to show old mate!]

To those traders wondering how I restored the QAM-Live-1 account after a nasty UJ cycle I'll briefly explain that tomorrow.

In short its taking entries based on PA and candlesticks together with visual momentum of price including levels (not price BUT candlesticks).

Sounds fancy right?

Don't worry it is not!

Its simply waiting for the right entry on a lower TF say M1 or M5 preferably with low spread unless that's not available and timing a long or a short.

I call it FIFO (fast in and fast out) scalping type trades with higher lot sizes.

Usually apply lot size equal to account equity divided by 10,000.

For example, a US$1000 account would apply a lot size equal to 1000/10000 = 0.1 lots (ramped up to 2-3 times in certain situations).

These are the higher lot size trades I apply in between currently running cycles as I mentioned in the other QAM trading thread.

These have not been utilized in the cycles of trades taken in this journal thread yet until today (but do not use 0.5 lots per 1K like I did today unless you know what you are doing .... actually better you don't).

Hi Masterrmind,
Sorry, today I was not be able to trade because of other things to do like cut the gras in the garden ... anyhow, great Job done, I am really impressed how you managed everything

You change the Yen in buy order, that is good ... there are rumors around that some Carrytrader do close there positions because of possible interest hike in USA, the business was take loan in Yen and buy US shares, this works twice as long USD is strong, Currency and Dow/SPX500 ... but if interest is change some of the big guys are going into Bonds that means the bubble burst and everyone runs through the same door out, USD weaker and Yen gone strong. But some japanese corporations are hedging with 115 means there are all in the red ink right now, waiting for help of the BOJ.

What you are saying is basically correct.

However, depending on who is doing the talking the information can be the opposite to someone else!

Yes I keep in tune with the market via live news feed including Bloomberg, Reuters and other sources.

Many times in the ATW session the news feed does not make much of an impact (except for some medium and high impact news events of course) on short term cycles but it certainly can and will if you run the cycle over more than a day (not recommended).

The reason for holding onto the UJ shorts was simply because I was after a decent pullback in price so I could get out of a few earlier trades and minimize as much as possible any negative impact on the cycle.

At a maximum of 10% assigned floating DD (unless otherwise stated) this level was not breached throughout the cycle according to myfxbook analytics which shows maximum floating DD at 9.23%.

Using such a small DD% on a strategy that feeds off producing a DD shows that anything is possible.
If you recall the DD in some of the bad cycles on Quantum London Thread (not my cycles by the way) that relied on opening and closing purely on an opposite Quantum signal then >>50% was noted by some traders (albeit they were using progressive lot increase).

I think if you can try to keep DD <10% and learn to trade cycles of trades under these conditions then the small account will survive.

Once we increase this 1K account 2, 3, or 10 fold then we'll start changing the way we trade QAM!

It was necessary to apply Plan B which entails higher lot sizes but shorter term FIFO trading to recover any loss on any recent trades.

Notice how I traded AU (what direction?)
Notice how I traded UJ (what direction(s)?) ....... take a look at the trades, the timing and any hedging?
The 1 short EA trade + 3 short EU trades was just a bit of icing on the cake!

The AU applied 0.2 lots
The UJ applied 0.5 lots

Why the difference in lot sizes?

Think about the progression from 0.2 lots through to 0.5 lots ..... the winning trades from the 0.2 lot entries gives a buffer ie some additional profit that can absorb any loss that might occur from trading the 0.5 lot entries (but note the long + short on the UJ 0.5 lot trades?? The short was closed out for about $10.99 loss but the long left to run for $48.47 .... net gain intact!)

Due to trading 0.02 lots per trade in the cycles even on a 1K account it is possible to open 12-15 trades or more and even if the cycle gets into trouble there is still plenty of margin to open a few relatively higher lot trades to recover from the losses.

Note: Based on trader account parameters I suggest 0.1 to 0.3 maximum lot size for these FIFO trades since the risk is increased should you lose the 1st few trades. The idea ofcourse is not to have to apply these types of trades in the 1st place however, I will also use them not just to recover a bad cycle but as a stimulus to increasing the net daily%.
