try the £10k gamble forum by The Baller. This is really good. Looking at your method and comparing to his your SL is much too tight.
Will be interested in following your progress.

will have a look when i have time. Is the baller 10k gamble forum profitable? Have you tried?
SL tight (earn lesser lose lesser) haha.
Shifted stop loss to 1.2997. Guarantee 3 pips profit lol. HOpe dont get stopped out. Trailing stop enabled.
it is clearly profitable but does require the balls to tolerate large drawdowns. It is similar to my own approach but i include refined entry rules in order to try to reduce drawdown and increase profit. I would encourage you to read the journal from the beginning and in particular the description from Baller.
I think tight SL only helps brokers.
thanks for your suggestion and improvement. i will definitely read up and improve on my SL.
omg, we got trailling stopped out again. + 9 pips profit…

If you understand that support and resistance isn’t just a line, its a zone, then you will increase your win rate ten fold.
Many traders set their stop loss at the most obvious level, most of the time, a few pips away.
What are the chances the price will always respect that level down to the exact pip and reverse.
Many times price likes to prod the level and sometimes breakthrough it to have a look before reversing - that’s the difference between staying in the trade or getting stopped out.
Great tip diabolo888 thanks

+141 pips this month whOoohoo
We are on a 4 winning streak. Haven lost anything since 10/21/19
I think today 24 Oct 2019, 55 pips profit was good enough. still 45 pips from the 100 pip a day.
The latest 2 trades
EURUSD +28 pips (kicked out by trailing stop)
AUDUSD + 27 pips (kicked out by trailing stop too)
My thoughts after 1 month back in trading
So far we put in 2 rogue trade, Gambling trade #9 and trade #11. I have always bursted my account because I had winning streaks. We have 4 winning streaks. Im not going to gamble my streak from today onwards. Trade #3 and #4 were losses, each trade took 50 pips from us. 50*2 = -100 pips
Luckily for us 4 oct to 24 oct, almost a month, i have put in about 19 orders, 2 is still pending trigger. 4 not triggered, traded on 13 trades and won 9, lost 4. + 141 pips this month, still a far cry from the 100 pips a day challenge but I will try my best.
Currently we are risking 0.1% on our 100k demo account. I realised it was way too small, now we are going to up the stakes, we will be risking 1% per trade on the demo account.
Lets get our heart pumping.
Hopefully 12 months later, i have a + pips and we will go live.
Follow me along the journey and we will make some $$ together.
Attached are my trades on the demo account.
This was my call a few days ago
