@The_Baller, @dpaterso, I have been watching this thread with interest since the OP, thinking OK, maybe we have a trader that knows what they are doing… a self confirmed (many times) professional trader that is making thousands of dollars per month and more recently has become a wanna be Fund Manager trading other people’s money… and believe it or not, wants to hang out in a beginners forum… Spending more time and space telling us about the trappings of success than show us all his strategy, his techniques, helping us all to become the demigod traders that we all aspire to be.
The more posts I read the more I realised that this is pure unadulterated BS… and has suckered you all in… hook, line and sinker… Now I know I am going to be flamed grilled by the good folk of BabyPips, but continue reading and I’ll paint a compelling picture of the rubbish that is being peddled here on a daily basis.
First of all our Superstar trader only gives you the bare minimum in information from his Ctrader platform. Not enough to really tell a true story of his trading prowess… for all we know that 38 pip 15k trade could have been opened 15 mins prior to it’s close… and I won’t even go into the 11 pip 4k win… which at a monumental 404 pound per pip position is little more than a scalp? Of course our OP states over and over that he doesn’t scalp…
He plays the long game right? (See Below)
Now see the information that I displayed when running the 25% in a month thread… You got the lot, Open, Close, Commission, Lot Sizes, Gross, Net and an accruing total balance to show a true indication of where the account stood. The total balance figure will also confirm that you are not flicking from one account (Demo) to the next to get the preferred screenshots…(See Below)
Now we come to the really interesting part (See Below) the margin to cover the 15k position is over 10k… even on a 1:400 account where even a 10 pip reversal will result in 4k of DD. This is outside the realm of any risk aversion strategies that I am aware of…
So sit back and have a think about what you are seeing in this thread, fact or fiction… We’ve all seen these big hitters come and go over the years.
Conclusion… There is no envy, no sour grapes in this post, all I’m requesting is transparency in your outlandish claims…So… I’m asking you @The_Baller, to in future display the same complete information that you Boys et Girls are attempting to ridicule in this thread, and lets just see if the thread can continue with it’s illusions of grandeur and excess and or it can be proven to be the real deal…
Now… let the games begin…
