Excellent post, thank you.

just FYI, some brokers allow micro lots.. or roughly 10c / tick... so 500 ticks would actually only represent 50$. & since this thread is so entertaining for you scrap, here's a question: how can you calculate percentage when you don't even know his account size?

Yes, because everyone has those kind of funds lying around. You're basically talking down to anyone using retail brokers? Gimme a break. Congrats on your success in trading 1:1, but frankly your attitude is shit.

Eight, that's an excellent contribution. Thank you.

yeah, you're definitely not getting enough exercise/sexercise. swimming is a really great & fun way to get a full body workout. i sleep like a baby when i go swimming. also, you might find that you don't absolutely NEED 8 solid hours of sleep... let your body decide how much quality sleep...

As someone else mentioned, why not just trade an account in someone else's name. Say a close friend or a family member. That's probably how i'd go about it. However small, why risk it?

just trade something else correlated to futures

Cool, thanks for this.

LOL Strong majority voting over 75%... can you feel the love?

hi, i currently have a near addiction to Tetrahydrocannabinol.. & at one point had a full out addiction to sex.. which thankfully didn't really cost me much. what's your theory?

yeah i mean no disrespect to the individual, whoever he is, i just don't support his opinions & i'm not interested in reading them :)

LOL she's not worth it bud...

just a simple request, can people stop quoting cabletrader? those of us that have him on ignore would rather not read his gibberish.

the short & easy answer is that if the unthinkable happens... you are SOL besides what you mention, having a broker on speed dial to liquidate your positions at the first sign of trouble... even then there's no guarantees that you'll get your wire transfer... & that your currency will be...

I have long AUDUSD trades collecting interest from 0.65... & i like to scalp the corrections all the way up. I must be a n00b.

why do you care either way? congrats on being first to make my ignore list, it's been an honor.

if you're so curious about the strategy, paper trade it. otherwise, take a hike. surf, thanks for your contributions

As you mentioned, your system bled for 2 years straight before coming back with a vengeance. Are you prepared to sit on your hands & not pull the plug the next time this happens? I think you should consider waiting until you have 20K & trade an additional non correlated instrument.

i couldn't agree more. knowing when not to trade, or when to run which system is fundamental. ok, so you've developed a system that does well when the market is ranging.. why are you running it on news days? ok, you've developed a trend capturing system... why are you trading it in the chop?
