    The reason I dont use any indicators

    Typically people will spend a couple years or even 3-5 years applying all those some 300-500 indicators available to their charts, hoping something work like a magic. The truth is market dynamics is so complex that not one single indicator can fully catch the accuracy of the price movement.

    How do you get over the fear of increasing position size?

    You sound very like what Nodoji would say, in a good sense. Your system is probably very discretionary.

    How do you get over the fear of increasing position size?

    I think a reliable charting is the key. 90 to 95% of accuracy. Hard to come by. Some people may go for large size with 60 to 70 % reliability with profits, but that would be a constant torture of juggling with money management/risk control and a roller coaster of psychological adjustment.

    Well, you can open an account with Oanda with $250 to trade FX, and if you were good as you said, 100% return every month can make you one million in a year.

    Be careful to open a account inTradeStation, is this illegal?

    In the future, if you plan NOT to trade for a few months or for a period of time (half year, one year), you can call the customer service to suspend your platform/account for that period of time , so they don't charge the platform fee (each is $99 or something). Platform/charting can't be free...

    You are confused with two processes: The programming stage and the trading stage. The programming and coding process is all based on math, science and algos; The trading process handled by human operation is affected by psychology; but the trading process handled by machine is not affected by...

    You apparently have better experience with C2. One thing I don't understand is that if one can trade and make profit with great certainty, why bother to use C2 to get some lousy fees.

    YM Magic!

    The idea is to get a basket of traders with DD around 10%, and evenly invest. If you choose 10 traders with less than 10% DD, and then in a given month, if 3 traders out of these 10 got a unexpected DD of 30%, you still have a total DD about 16%, and it could be lower as some of the traders may...

    I browsed some C2 traders records and there are a couple excellent trading records like these two: 1) Mcprotrader, 200% return in 6 months, DD 7%, 100% win month; 2) Simplicity trading, 128% return in 6 months, DD 11%, 100% win month. So here is an interesting idea, if you put your capital...

    One thing I don't understand: since you have a good system and you are confident and you showed making quite some good calls, why don't you just open an account with AMP with even $2000 and start making real cash, instead of hoping to get some subscription fee. I am pretty sure you are aware of...
