I am just not satisfied with these results. I know they are low.
I am going to go another month. Starting balance $1,853.49.
I will average the month, and then the two months together.
Who knows, maybe next month will be worse, not better.
I guess I’ll know in thirty days. (20 trading days)
use it as your avatar
That’s a great idea,
But I realy like the avatar I have.
right you look older and most important wiser

hey, would you mind posting the system you have been using? i am very curious to see what you have been using to make such awesome gains in a month. thanks dude
The reason for posting the returns is to let people know what is possible.
I have exposed some to my system, but only a select few and only privately.
That demo has expired, or I would have posted more results.
.
oh ok i see, i would love to chat with you some about your methods and maybe some recomended reading? anyways if you would be able to do that let me know
thanks man
Sure catch me on Yahoo.
82.5% ROI to date is a misleading ratio in the way you are using it. You don’t really invest the entire $1000 at any point. I suppose yes you have increased the demo balance by 82.5%, but what are your per trade returns on risk?
I’ve prepared a simple spreadsheet to graph your per trade returns. It appears most trades are between 1 and 4 percent.
If I had to guess I’d say you are risking around 1 and 2 percent per trade.
Hmm… ok.
I’m not sure what you are thinking.

hi pipgod how are you doing haven�t talk to you for very loooooong time so i hope everything is cool with you.i know from hobbit that you�re very busy man at the moment.finally i put the offsetting to work out but need to test it for couple of weeks more to see any weaknesses but so far no problems at all and i�m testing it with 3000$ account and approx 12 pairs in 7 trading days profit 700$ without any problems and far away from margin call.
wish you and your family the best and take care 
Hey certicex,
thanks for contributing to the forum so much. You seem to have made great progress in a short time. How long have you been trading? I am still a newbie but it’s fun to see how differently I looked at the market one month ago. Do you have any reading recommendations?
Cheers,
Chris
thanks bro
i�m trading 3 months and 3 weeks live i have several ways how to make profit but decide to stick to only my best 2 systems.you can read my thread post your daily loss/profit and maybe you find something useful and even one of my systems
if you want you can contact me via skype or MSN
have a good trading
I’m still not sure what you are thinking.
I am thinking about results. Month end results.
I started with that, now I have this. Just happens to be an 82.5% increase.
If I have mislead anyone, that was not my intent.
Thank you! 
Now that would be an interesting risk/reward ratio.

I am thinking that I agree you are reporting the percentage change of your account, but not the Return On Investment. You could report the %change per trade, and that would be closer to ROI – although just another name for R:R.
You never invest the entire $1,000 at any one time.
Therefore the title of this thread is inaccurate.
Also, not sure what you mean by ‘upgrading’ your ROI. But let’s not get into that one…
I know it was not your intent to mislead anyone, just clearing things up.
Hobbot: I was not analyzing the system.

Correct!

Ok, feel free to change it.

I upgraded the trade system to work better with a small beginning balance.

Thanks, mom.

Feel free to say anything you want anytime you want. Anything to make you feel better.
You may even straighten the pencils on my desk if you like.
