Sure. urrrr....negative 140 to be precise. Edit: make that negative 148

Perhaps that's the only real way to succeed in trading - waiting for that one moment when the "real bitch" finally spreads her legs. :D :D

If she looks close enough, she bangs her nose against a cold smoothe surface.

Whether or not you have multiple handles is immaterial. The claims being made are still absurd.

Oldtime, I am a cup half full kind of guy. I'd rather think she were limit hunting. Looks like she's on her way back up again.

My pain threshold is reached at 2400. We're nowhere even close to this. I see no issue with averaging down so long as I pull the plug before 2400.

A complete rookie? Who sold his business sometime before April 2012, and acknowledges some trading experience before that day? http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=240028&perpage=6&pagenumber=1 You're about as much a rookie as I am, and I don't consider myself a rookie...

... and I am long from 3138, feeling the paint, but nicely up for the month and year. I've been sitting on it for several days, debating whether or not to grow a set, and add to my long.

Sheda, I was about to say something, but deleted the post. I'll say this instead. I think 40 pips average is what is intended, but its important to realize that you can average 40 pips a day and still lose all of your money.

How do you figure that? I guess you aren't compounding and instead are withdrawing the 40X$500 = $20,000 every day. Which brings me back to this. Wasn't the starting point $10,000? At 50 to 1 leverage, maximum allowed in USA, you're restricted to a starting point of only about 2.5...

Sheda, cut the crap! 40 points by itself isn't so hard to believe, but to do that constantly, daily, long enough to turn $10,000 into $1,000,000, in, if I recall correctly, one month, or was it a year? And, on top of that, its all going to be done by a rookie? Bullshit!

Nah, that's me. I'm the guy trading a $1k FX account.

By the way, I went all in today with 25 mini lots and quadrupled my trading account. As this happened, my brilliant 9 month old baby got up on her feet, ran to me and yelled in perfect English, "Daddy, you're a genius!!" :D

No thanks. Waste of my time. Careful you don't get distracted and spoil you record like Mr. Brasil. God forbid you have to log in with a new handle.

Do we care? Over the long run the odds of you making the correct call at any given moment is exactly 50%. Over the last 5 weeks, I have a 100% record. Will this continue? I doubt it.

I just opened an account with Oanda a few weeks ago, and I can't for the life me understand their margin requirements. I have it set for 50 to 1, but a mini lot require $563 maintenance margin. This doesn't make sense. What am I doing wrong???

I've worked it out. I'm well aware how rapidly 40 pips/day compounds if you have a perfect record. Unfortunately, none of us have a perfect record over an extended period of time. You've never traded a lot? You mean you trade with a lot more money. Fair enough. I don't have that luxury...

"Next month he will be on $200+/pip and he's averaging around 40 pips a day at the moment disregarding the spikes like 140 pips in that average. Averaging 40 pips a day is not groundbreaking and it beats me why turning $10K into $1,000,000 is so unbelievable to guys that think they are ET...

Here's April As far as the contest is concerned, can I use Questrade?
