i started trading eurusd after the NFA changed the margin requirement for all GBP pairs towards end of 2016. prior to that i was killing it in gpbusd cause this pair obeyed my tehcnical rules so perfectly and it was very, and still is volatile.

but after switching to eurusd, things just wen to shit. pair kind of moves in bursts. periods of slow ranging follow by explosive move. so i had to make adjustment. Adjustment took about a month for me to study the move. So towards beginning of Feb 17 is when i think i figured out eurusd a little more.

I don't think it's anything psychological that i had to adjust, just more so figuring out what technical pattern made more sense for me to trade that's different than gbpusd to make money off.

but who knows, maybe eurusd will change again, or maybe nfa will remove the margin requirement off gpbusd.but the point is, always adapt to change and hopefully you don't burn yourself off (like i almost did when i switched) before your edge starts to materialize.

Your old threads are golden Hilmy!

Just the fact to see that you were struggling in the beginning aswell, and seeing you found a way eventually gives me a little more hope towards my own trading!


And holy F*ck you're a mad man, holding 42 lots over the weekend haha! potential of the 100% month is real with just 1 trade lol!


Gonna keep looking through your threads, hoping to find some golden nuggets !


Take care, green pips to you!

i dont' think i've detailed my trading strategy in any thread. all i've done over the years is share results. but it's not rocket science i tell you. it's bits and pieces of different strategies over the years.

Hilmy when you get/if you want can you tell us about what do's and don't that changed your results to positive? Currently I'm more of a breakeven trader. I dont want to know your strategy (cough cough I DO) lol but I went thru you're old threads and something must have clicked and I just wanted to know what changes made you succeed.

* I understand if you don't answer , I think FF already lost enough today with you deciding to remove TE . Understandable when ppl ask for investor password.
