It is norm that it takes 5-8 years in average before becoming consistently profitable......

It looks markets go extremes more often these days........

IMHO, Rainbow or Guppy MMA is perfect only in hindsight backtesting but in reality, in real time trading, it doesn't work. If it's that easy, anyone can become a millionaire.

For Options trading, Thinkorswim is the best.

It's obvious U.S. is not the ideal place for Forex traders in general. That's why gave up moving to U.S. My FX broker is Switzerland based Dukascopy and I am very satisfied....... :thumbsup:

Multiple entries/exits with low leverage. Period.

Not a big deal. Occasional jokes from big boys. Players with low leverage won't be harmed.

IMHO, no matter market or algos evolve, this very basic principle of trading won't change: Buy at cheap price and sell at expensive price. My job is to gauge how market is cheap or expensive based upon my fundamental and technical analyses.

Thank you very much for your quick feedback. It answered my question. :thumbsup: I have better edge on currency trade and now I am going back to Forex.....

How about negative carry?

As a swing/position trader using a low leverage with multiple entries/exits, execution quality is not a big concern to me. The biggest concern to me is swap cost in Forex.

As a swing trader, I thought the biggest advantage trading currency Futures compared to Forex is cheaper trading cost, because Forex charges high swap rate (when it's negative swap). However, up until now, I didn't know about 'cost of carry' in FX Futures. (More details...

In Forex, to build synthetic cross currency pairs, for example to buy EURJPY, we can buy EURUSD and buy USDJPY at the same time (yes, cost is higher). Is this also true in currency Futures? Can I just buy E6 one contract and sell J6 one contract at the same time to mimic EURJPY buy trade? Does...

Why don't you try cent account?

Also, my strategy change must have affected this decision to be honest. Futures is excellent choice for scalpers (especially tick chart based scalpers) using single entry/exit with tight stop loss. Now I am a swing/position trader using multiple entries/exits without stop loss. I have stronger...
