Disliked{quote} From looking at his TE, it seems that most of those big drawdowns came on trades he kept open for a LONG time. The question is, did they immediately, within the first few minutes/hours go that far underwater, or did they slowly but surely tank? So I guess my scalper bias is showing, huh? If you're willing to get out of a bad trade quickly (which I admit I don't ALWAYS practice what I preach), then the drawdown issue isn't as important. Large trade size combined with short trade time means a "bad" trade is usually manageable. Conversely,...Ignored

Disliked{quote} Hehe, ok. If i understand correctly every thing we see is just Potemkin's village for us poor idiots trying to make a few bucks, right. For you apparently it is not worth the trouble if i don't have at least 500k ... Please be so kind, show me how making 100% or more a year consistently in trading is nothing extraordinary. Please show me the guy averaging 200%+ for the past 5-10 years. And please tell me about all the other businesses where making 300% in 3 months with very little risk is no problem. Or is this only reserved for the elite?...Ignored
Disliked{quote} Let me further take up the refrain. Making 100% or more a month consistently is no big deal, and some traders do it without fanfare. That may surprise you as most good traders do not often advertise themselves on forums.Ignored
Disliked{quote} You seriosly claim that there is traders that can constantly make 100% or more a month? I am sure you understand that by doing that they would all be richer than anyone else in a few years. How come that has not happened yet? Don't get me wrong. I believe that almost any trader can be constantly profitable if he is just disciplined and he is experienced enough to understand what money management and a trading system means. But even the best ones suffers bad periods and that is where money management comes in and most traders fail.Ignored

Disliked{quote} I agree with Darwinex. Also worth of look are TopStepTrader and Actualtraders.com. TopStep and Actualtraders will fund you and let you keep most of the profits. Darwinex works differently and there it takes a more time to get funded and there is no quaranteed that you will actually get funded, even if yuo trade well. Take some time and compare these.Ignored

Disliked{quote} Exactly! And still we have people who claim that it is relatively easy to make 100% or more a month constantly. Anyone, even my dog can make that occasionaly but she would propably give it back in few months.Ignored
DislikedHi, I've been trading for few years now and being "consistantly profitable" is not the biggest problem I have. The problem I have is with low trading capital. Some friends advised me to open a small live pamm account and connect it with trade explorer, myfxbook, fxstat, ... to prove that I can trade. So I did that a few months ago. As I was told getting the funds for consistant traders shouldn't be a problem ("the money will find you if you are good" I was told, hehe). But apparently it is a problem (at least for me) because I don't even know what...Ignored

Disliked{quote} you are just a beginner. you will learn in real live trading that your words are not really true, not even near truth. you can do maybe 100% with extrem risk each month in a little account (like martingale, no stoploss, account killer risk trading...) and withdraw all wins and do again. bit ypou will kill accounts often same time of course. but even if you are luckiest man thats not 100% in second month. only beginners calculate this one account and not the money they allready have. you need to calculate all money you have and then the wins...Ignored
