@THE_GOATE You haven’t worked it out yet, have you? Only a handful in these forums are really interested in becoming consistantly profitable, taking a real opportunity at improving their circumstances…
It’s all about fast money… How can this forum and these threads, and those idiots (me included) that post FREE and possibly valuable trading information get me rich quickly…
And yes, posting results (not strategies) contains a bit of Show Boating… It displays what can be done in these markets with some hard-work, research and perseverance… All in very short supply here!
You say you have been trading for 2 years… And have been profitable across both of those. More profitable than I was in my first 2 years by a long way… Now, I’m not saying you fabricated these results… On the contrary…
Just proves my point… What the hell are these people doing that consistently loose money year after year trading these markets!
For those that bother to read these threads in their entirety… No doubt, counted on one hand! Will understand that as the balance increases the risk profile has to change.
You just cannot trade 5 days a week 52 weeks a year at the intensity required. Your comment reminds me of one of the simplistic old adages asked many times in these forums… If anyone can make 5% ROI each week on a small CFD account.
Why aren’t they working for a hedge fund? You’d be outperforming the entire market…
Big difference risking $500 - $1000 per position than say $500,000 - $1,000,000 on each and every trade.
