For the last several months running I have observed that the winners of FXCM’s King of the Micro Contest have been traders in other countries. While I understand trading forex is a global community, one of which I am proud to be a part of, I think there is still room for some freindly international competion. I have alway’s enjoyed watching the U.S.A. win gold in the olympics and I’m hoping to see more U.S.A. traders winning the micro contest. I have started this thread to see if anyone out there would be intrested in consorting to win this thing. I also think it would be fun and advisable for traders in other countries to take some pride in where they come from and form teams of their own. After all, nothing makes us better then a little competition. If the micro contest does not intrest anyone then perhaps someone should start a gentleman’s/woman’s international contest on this web site.
As a quick follow up, the winners are posting 1000% plus returns. I am not doing that well but I am in the 100% plus category. If I could team up with anyone and move that to 200% then win, lose or draw I am a better trader. Is that not why we all log into this site? Let’s challenge ourselves.
obviously the yanks are incapable of making and holding money.
i believe though that the yanks are winning the race in wasting and loosing the most money and forcing the most bankruptcies and liquidations in the history of the universe…just dont think the yanks have it in them…
on the slippery slide down - it is amusing to watch from afar - have you any money left to loose?
Now thats the kind of spirit I’M TALKING ABOUT! Yes I have some to lose but I would rather make some more. From the looks of things over here I may have to hold it in some other currency. Did you form a team yet? I may not be proud of the financial decisions the powers at be made over here. But I am proud of where I come from, as you are, obviously. How shall we set the benchmark my freind?
