Hmm.... My only concern adding from your list is I wonder if all want to be a part of this challenge?

for example 5abi never posted that he wanted to be a part of it. Problem is some have been posting here without following all the rules. So difficult to tell if the agree to they challenge or not. Plus some have since deleted there TE.

Roels just wanted to help you...but you are the starter of the thread and you decide who you want on the list or not. I am sure Roels will have nothing against your decision.

Okay all...

Thanks Roels for your post with list of potential contributors to the thread. I looked at them and only included ones who either specifically asked to be a part of this, or at least named their explorer according to the original rules. I think most of them were actually included.

I suspect not all on the list will continue, or maybe some no longer want to be a part of this, but we'll see how it goes...

Here is the current list:

Boring waiting market open

When Albert Einstein died, he met three New Zealanders in the queue outside the Pearly Gates. To pass the time, he asked what were their IQs. The first replied 190. "Wonderful," exclaimed Einstein. "We can discuss the contribution made by Ernest Rutherford to atomic physics and my theory of general relativity". The second answered 150. "Good," said Einstein. "I look forward to discussing the role of New Zealand's nuclear-free legislation in the quest for world peace". The third New Zealander mumbled 50. Einstein paused, and then asked, "So what is your forecast for the NZDUSD today?"

Sunday nights are hit and miss. Mostly miss.

Trying to forward test an EA I wrote this weekend. Hoping we can get some decent price movement over the next day or two. If it looks good then I will run it on an FXCM live account I just opened. Backtesting looked promising. But, then again, hind sight is always 20/20. I will start a TE for this account when I start running the EA.

I will continue to run the current TE on the daily. I need to force myself to learn patience by trading the dailies. The one thing I really do like about the daily charts is that it only takes a few minutes each day to manage the trades and pending orders.

Hope everyone has a great week.

caught the overtrading bug myself... August was a good month for me, good money management, not risking more than 2% per trade worked really great,
took my trades carefully with a lot of odds in my favour, made upto 43%.....

Then came september 1st, felt like some greed spirit just hit me, started taking stupid trades and over leveraging on positions i wasnt even 20% sure of... Something i wouldnt do on a normal day, somehow i feel i was trying to test my scalping skills and i sucked bad at it, hence, im down -27%..
.. From here on and out i'll just stick to what i do best,
Carefully taking high probability trades and riding them out and adding to them for days.....

Good part is that i'm not too worried,
if i could it do it once, all i have to do is repeat what i was doing before the negative greed kicked in...




By the way Ben, I see you are still taking 0.10 trades with your current account size..... isn't that still a bit much?

hmm... Not sure where you are seeing the lot size (or account size), since I'm not sharing that info publicly anymore.

However, if you look at the overall leverage I'm employing, it's only 28:1 with 21 current open trades. This is averaging way less than 3:1 leverage per trade.

I think most traders here are using way higher leverage than that? Your leverage appears to be at least twice as much as what I'm using, so not sure why you'd think I'm over-leveraged?

by the way, Koop, regarding scalping, try finding someone who has year long profitable record scalping. I've not seen anyone yet. However, if anyone thinks they can do it, I'd welcome them to join us here and prove it...

At any rate, I think you made a good decision to stick with the approach that you've had success with...

oh yeah pardon me, i have not checked your profile recently, was just judging from your previous account balance before the little setback period you had..... and also your screenshots (which show your lot sizes ). I didn't bother to even check what your current balance was. My bad.


And yeah, i totally admit i over-leveraged tremendously within the past 3 trading days.....which was quite unlike me..... lesson learnt ... lesson very very learnt..

I don't even like scalping, too much emotional attachment..... and when you try it once with success, you want to try it again and again... lol crazy...

Done with that crap..... Back to swinging

Afternoon here. See what after London Open would give. Try to get 2% today for the recovery. To the Green yeah.

Edit:
-So far look like USD global weakness. But off course Who knows?
-After waiting long long time could be mission impossible to get target point today.
