How much do you think USD/CAD and USD/CHF will increase to within 2 days? I think USD/CHF will increase to 1.295, but Im not sure with USD/CHF

Well, I only risk 10% on every trade, or i did, now i lose more. The leverage is 200:1. so I need 100dollar in margin balance to buy 2 mini lots. Actually, I talked to their live support and wanted to change my leverage from 200 too 50, but that would take 2 days, as one had to fill out a...

is jess telling the truth? drasfs: hi Jess: Hello, welcome to Forex.com. How may I assist you? drasfs: all my positions were suddenly closed drasfs: how come Jess: one moment Jess: It looks like your positions were liquidated by our trade desk due to insufficient margin Jess: to learn...

Well ive got the impression that there are lots of people that get 200 pips or more a month and just smiling secretly.

I suspect that the people over at fx-review are playing a masqerade as there are rumours saying that, and that the website are supervised by fxmaster, axis and the other signal providers that they praise. Or that they indeed have been paid by them, to praise them, and to stab their...

There are a couple of things that puzzle me. For instance, if you average 200 pips a month using 100:1 leverage and have 20 000 dollar in your account, and only use 5% of you account worth on every trade, you would earn 2000 dollar a month. There are lots of people out there that achieve 200...

Thanks for the extremely insightful post. I didnt know this much about ECN platforms at all. You obviously take on much more responsibility, but isnt it highly unlikely that a bank would increase its spread to 25, and wouldnt you be informed about that in advance?

Setharb: Ive been trading stocks for several years , and just recently got into this business. I think it pay off to choose a good broker from the start and thus maybe save a lot of money,time and energy. But you have to try around to see which one fits you need best.

Everything you say is true, but ive also called the broker personally and asked about thic guarantee for which they say is 100% true. But why dont every go with an ECN Platform? Because of unawareness?

The market is still in its infancy and yes, Ive tried 16 different brokers, who all promised.

No. Ive tried a couple of them who promised a guarantee, and they either widen the spread/slippage or dont accept entry orders within a given range.

Tradergod: Dont waste your time trying to persuade a newbie not to use 200+ leverage. They have to see it themselves. Unless the top 10 traders tell him that lower leverages is what one should use.

Is there any forex brokers that offer no slippage during volatile market conditions, or freeze/lag during these times, for example when the nfp is released. Is it otherwise possible to trade directly without using any brokers, and thus getting better spreads, as well as better privacy and...

:) Too often traders set their stop limits as the limit of how much money they feel that they can afford to lose. The market dont care about your feelings, and If you want to be profitable you should follow the market and design your strategy to fit in with the market, not your own feelings...

Exactly. But I know that it must feel unfair, to see a newbie make good profit without putting any effort into it, when you have done it the hard way. I would however prefer to do it myself, and I envy people who can be profitable by doing it themselves.

True. What really matters are not how many pips you can make, but how you can keep your losses to a minimum, and how many winners you can make. Im getting sick of knowing everything in theory, but still perform like a cow on the field.
