Ok guys i think i need to give both of you some advice
firstly @_bob , mate, i get you and i agree with you, but this blokes not your average idiot newbie (just keep it in mind ok)
i think he does genuinely want to move forward and he is willing to share, but maybe doesnât know what detail you require.
thatâs all
@tralaritralara
Mate, if you havenât dealt with bob before, bob is like Beer or Vegemite hehe heâs not an idiot and he doesnât mean to be rude, but he definitely takes getting used to
Now. some people , like myself , Never got used to Vegemite 
and iâm more of a crunchy peanut butter kind of guy
Bobs approach is âŚ
he doesnât like BS and he wonât even go there that is why he tells you things like REALITY CHECK
now⌠the nature of people is ⌠to take this in a rude light as being disrespectful
bob doesnât mean it like that
bob means it like⌠THIS IS REALITY . YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THIS
bob doesnât like being fake
bob also likes using pictures
bob also likes Milo (i think that is relevant) hehe
but yeah⌠take bob with a grain of salt, try to look beyond the insults and understand what he is trying to say
because in his own Messed up way (no offense bob) bob actually is trying to help
Under all those layers of
This is a Reality check
Donât be a Firetrucking idiot
Youâre a bloody scammer
Get the hell out of here
Under all that crap
THERE IS A LAYER THAT IS SAYING
I JUST WANT TO HELP YOU BRO
so bear with him
Now. shhhh⌠but. bob will never admit this hehe
but heâs actually trying to help
so based on these 2 last comments
and
i see a bitch fight forming here
now based on bobs comment of
TRANSLATION : bob is choosing to no longer give a FIRETRUCK
He can help you, but you gotta work through all the (as i like to call it ) "bobness"
if you can get through that, he can help you
but i would suggest you donât get into a bitch fight with him
besides the mods donât like it anyway and it never ends well for anyone
ok
you can either help each other and talk to each other
or
you canât
give it a go mate and be patient with him, heâs an ok bloke if you get to know him

WowâŚgreat going. Good nunbers those especially with a Risk of 2%. At 25% per month or higherâŚwowâŚwithin the next 6 months that will be impressive. Once you keep it steady and obey rules most of the time - we arent perfect- good to go.
My targets are lower for nowâŚ14% per month. A little behind nowâŚbut March should make up for February as my Account Trends Higher
Yeah your background can help in seeing relationships others might not see as quickly. Especially in an area like Forex where there is no standard syllabus or 4 yr programme and there are several moving parts that need to go through trial and error and several iterations while holding other variables constant.
I also agree with the point made about having both a Live and Demo. Sometimes might see something that differs from you r strategy which can be traded on a Demo to test it/confirm it for future Live Trades. This is what I do and tell people I mentor. Some decide to use s smaller risk but for meâŚI prefer being very sure when it comes to real money.
So I test itâŚreport the findings âŚand then adjust where necrsssry.
All the best.

Wow; thatâs really great! Thank you very much for your reply.
Since you say you have âstudentsâ, my advice to you is work on your communication skills. Stop putting every other sentence in uppercase (in real life, I assume youâre shouting), learn to spell âconsistentâ correctly, learn to use uppercase in the correct places, learn to stop sentences with periods, etc. Honestly I couldnât even read that gibberish - I gave up after a few sentences.

HAD students
Duly Noted
iâm not going to change how i do things because YOU ASSUME STUPID THINGS, THIS IS NOT SHOUTING, THIS IS SAYING⌠PAY ATTENTION TO THIS BIT more than this bit
itâs not shouting⌠ok
so ⌠Modify your assumption
consistant vs consistent is a typo⌠get over it
so⌠Youâre a quitter
well, iâm not
and this isnât grammar school ok so try and relax,
iâm sensing , however that there is some deeper issue here
WHATâS THE PROBLEM ?

The return actually a trader earns or will earn greatly depends the analytical abilities of a trader to read all the trends and interpret them correctly to read the market. So, return will vary from trader to trader, But your earning percentage is great so far. Best of luck for the upcoming journey.

hallo, which broker have you been using to trade for live account?
1 Like
I am using Activtrades and I am satisfied with them by now.
I am not advertising anything, I just tell my story 
I started with Plus500, because in Spain is one of the most known broker services, and you know, I was beginning and that stuff. Then soon I realised that you could get brokers with less than 1 pip for EURUSD and better conditions for other pairs in general. I went through IG, I looked for information about some other brokers, and then I found Activtrades, which I have been using from 4 months ago, and I donât have any issue about them.
If some other people prefer other features than lower spreads (better execution, other functionsâŚ), then they can speak and advise you. The only point it could be better is that you have to make your deposits through Skrill, and they charge you a 0.5% comission, but I think that most brokers will have a similar problem, and you save that amount later with these lower spreads.

Hi, Iâd like to follow your thread. Also a Newbie (still on Demo). I have a PhD in Neuroscience and a successful career but currently on maternity leave with two small children and looking for a new challenge! Was almost too scared to post a reply as youâve had some pretty hostile and condescending replies but Iâm interested in your progress so Iâm braving itâŚ!

Hi everyone!
I know itâs a bit early, but I will be off for the next week (itâs holidays in Spain), and I think I have already reached an acceptable quota. So I will update my March report.
I have made a 45% profit over my initial capital amount. I see these results with a suspicious eye, because I know it is too much to begin with. I am trying to reduce my monthly trades to 4-8, but only A+ ones. I think I will be able to achieve it for the next month. This is not reflected on the report though, because I usually put small orders spreaded through an interest area.
My equity graph is this:
As you see, is a small account, since I am still proving myself, I will probably add some funds if this proves succesful for some months.
Have a nice trading!

SpainâŚnice⌠Visca Barsa Visca CataluyniaâŚy por supuestoâŚViva el Puto Amo Messi!
Nice graphâŚsuspicious? 45% is the tip of the iceberg with this market.
Well Im steadily moving at 10% in 6 weeks - from just 4 trades.
(New Strategy began in February 2018)
Next few days should see the 1st target being hit
âŚbefore hitting the other targets in the weeks and months ahead
I prefer patiently waiting for the best trades that have the highest chance of successâŚso will mean a few trades of 5 to 7 similar to whay you are looking to do. This is all I need to hit my goals. It also allows you breathing room in between trades to remain objective and prepared for the next trrade.

I would like to say that you will learn from every trade. You have to set the goals for the longer terms as Forex trading is quite a lengthy business and time is required to grow your account slowly slowly as you have to plan the proper risk management as well.

Hy everyone!
I am back again with my Aprilâs report. This month has also been succesful, and at the beginning of the month I funded with another 500⏠to my account.
This month profit was 40%, taking into account these new funds.
I answer any question or any helping I may give.
Have a nice trading!

Great goingâŚtremendous results those.
Last 3 Months have been good for me too.
13% from just 8 trades and just 2 losses since my new strategy started.
This is likely to move faster as I now target more setups with average gains of 100 PipsâŚsuch as the latest one on the EURO JPYâŚ
âŚwith more of these larger trades, likely to hit my targets much soonerâŚ

It is good to see that more people are joining in this forum and sharing their personal experience here. Though I am not an expert, I can share my views about your query. 25% return is not bad figure as I think. But I think you should not stop practicing demos. And you must try to work with smaller trading lots in the initial stage.

The first month of trading is always crucial as it decides your stay for the second month. You have to start positively as if you will lose a lot in the beginning then it will be difficult for you to come back strongly. You need to enter the market with proper planning and confidence.
I look forward to your May results - and I wonder if you feel like recording some of your trades in this thread ?
