On my recently funded US$100,000 FTMO account, I just achieved a profit of US$11,382.65 today.....I have stopped trading for this month, waiting to process withdrawal on the 20th of October.

Modified: This profit was made just in 7days cos I started trading the account on the 6th of October.

Added to this will be the challenge fee (US$740) which I paid, it will be refunded to me.........total expected withdrawal is US$12,122.65.

CopyJoe:


To my fellow. Newbie.

The difference between live and demo from my personal experience is this,

One loss on live account can throw you off balance. You will want to get it back immediately.

Greed is more real on live than demo.

And I found out that no two currencies are the same. The price action for each pair is very unique.

I'll add more later.

GabsonFX:
Wow! you all my bosses are amazing with the congratulatory messages, thanks for the positiveness - I do appreciate.

You see, I actually reduced my trade analysis posting and show more real-life results cos I see that too many traders here are fake....thanks to feshizzy who is a strong advocate of being real, clamoring on traders here to show explorer! explorer!! explorer!!! - trade history! trade history!! trade history!!!....this is because he has seen it all, we have seen it all, in fact, just last year, one terrible boy here on FTA thought he could scam me by providing me with someone else's trading results but failed, think about it, this same guy was here for 2years ish calling trade calls and everyone was amazed by what they saw. If he had made profits from the trades he called here since that time, why would he not be bold enough to provide me with his personal trading result but provided someone else's.

This year makes it 16years that I have been trading forex and joined FTA NL in 2015.

I'm always an advocate of being real, and I keep asking: for how long do we keep deceiving ourselves without proof to show for the business; I have mentioned this before, whenever anyone post analysis here, I take time to see my chart and virtually mark what the person expects and sometimes I monitor the entry, SL and TP. Unfortunately, I have so many times seen traders here kept mute when it went opposite or hit SL but eager to update when it goes their direction. Another fake pattern I notice is that they do analysis on like 5 pairs, post them, then return here to update only the ones that go their ways but keep mute on the others that go opposite. Of course, I see everything going on, members here that don't follow all the pairs called may not notice what is missing but get carried away by what they see updated.

I always give kudos and respect to those that strictly indicate, loud and clear that this account is DEMO, with that honesty, I have many times felt I should fund them to go live; however, I get pulled back by the question: can he show to me that he can handle live account yet. My advice to these sets of people is to keep grinding - they will eventually get there if they keep learning and don't quit.

If you keep faking it, thinking you are deceiving FTA members, can you continue faking it and keep deceiving us for 5years? a time will come where you will look back to the 5years you have spent faking it and deceiving yourself and realize you have wasted your life for good 5years here.

Above all, be real, don't fake it, keep learning, and stay positive and we shall get to the fx promised land

I withdrew the remaining $10.06 yesterday. Expecting it in my account today.

Forex is a journey for me.

I'll be less active here for a while. It's not been easy combining work with forex trading as a beginner.

I'll be back stronger.

I'll save up to go back live. No shaking

Taking a sell on Gold. Would modify to post result later.

Good evening all, been a while I made posts here as I’ve just been observing like the watcher in Marvel What if series, that’s by the way.

I just want to make a plea that those taking part in the contest and doing well, when you come to this platform to say you trust your strategy or your strategy works, Abeg explain to us the newbies if na support and resistance, order blocks, overload, trend lines or supply ad demand so we sef go learn and take part in the prop firm challenge.

djwalata:
Well said but I still think u can still help those doing well in DEMO TRADING by requesting for their trade histories if u wish to.

I bliv they will be more motivated to treat demo with d same required patience needed.

Yes sure, I try as much; I have two members that contacted me and voluntarily asked to open a demo account with my set requirements, they then linked to Fore*xfactory explorer and provided me with the link. One blew the account and now counting on the second.

Also, the ongoing challenge (contest) is another good opportunity to allow someone to manage US$50,000 if he meets the target.

djwalata:

Well d choice is yours if u bliv ONLY ONE MONTH OF TRADING HISTORY is ok as regards d ongoing challenge contest in order to fund them.
My OPINION though....
Winning (and meeting) all d criteria in d ongoing challenge (contest) might not reflect d true ability of d winner since it's a ONE OFF event.
Y not consider a serial winner with proven techniques over months?

My second live account burnt to ashes today and the first is still in danger. The live account has been in danger since last week, on Monday i took my flight ticket money $380 and split it, to my two live account hoping to pull out the money by next week, i believe the trade will bounce back after breaking the lower low of this year. On Tuesday the market was still digging deep, i edged the pairs on Tuesday afternoon, from Tuesday evening to Wednesday the pairs was pulling back, i closed the edging pairs with hope the market will bounce back, i lost $98. From Wednesday evening to Thursdays morning the pairs will move front and come, just like a trending market. I left it to do other things, as I came back this evening I find my account no more. My travel to Senegal and Gambia has been postpone to 2 or 3 weeks till I get money for flight ticket or the worst I use land.
I just learnt to never be angry with stoploss. I stopped using stoploss when it always cuts me off before going to my position..
I have not been sad since this eveing, I just branch to take some liquor so I can sleep very well.
This forex trade we must make am, naa only time e go take

MrEmir:


I'm in no place to criticize your trades( this is because we're all learning). But did you actually hedge gold?
Once you start hegding that's gambling.
But I like your spirit, and I think you would have performed better if the money you use to trade wasn't meant for the trip. When you expect so much from a trade you pschology starts doubting your strategy.
Above all I beg you in the name of whatever you believe in , abeg start to dey use stop loss.

Like you said , this forex we go surely make am. May the universe replenish you sir

Elliotwaveforec:
It seems some people aren't happy with those posting alerts here; what's the main essence of this thread in this first place? Is it to just talk talk and talk?

If you post alert, they say you want to impress FTA, let everybody stop posting alert then and let's begin the talk.

Kudos to those posting alert like Gabsonfx, saintfacukty, copyjose, charly20; I've learnt a lot from you all and I'm still learning; afterall, learning continues as long as we exist.

What positive impact do the weekly progress updates of trading have on this thread without posting charts for people to learn one or two things?

You don't post signals neither do you post charts but you stalk those who do, why? Not everyone that posts charts and gives signals wants to defraud, you should have this at the back of your mind.

Post signals and charts, if you can't, don't stop others.

Thanks sir, I do appreciate....more wins for all

tony84:
Congrats bro,more wins

You see in this fx biz of ours, I pray make i be like you when I grow up o

You've been trading since I was a toddler .
