Sorry for my bad English :-( It's the same thing I was trying to say ;) Leverage is an obviously double blade edge, you multiply gains, ad you multiply losses ... Anyway, yes, he made profits. In a way I don't agree with, but he made them. PERIOD. :cool:

This is gamblig: no fear to loose the entire account. I think that if he has operated with $423,255.00 out of his pockets, the performance would have been 1.03736% :D Gabriele http://www.gabrielevivinetto.it

I only try to follow someone of these big boys:never play against them ! :cool:

How do you cope with this ? Try to explain your technique ...

You said .... [B] Don't use stops, let your open position, aehm, your loss go ... [B] Great for all the shops around !!! [B] It's not the market, it's the provider .... where I've heard this ? ;) It's interesting to hear the opinions of a MM or an instituitional trader ...

Noone has experience in using MP in Forex spot trading ?

Cable, I respect you opinions, and consider valuable your suggestions. I prefer to be a little, unknown but *free* fish in an ocean, than a little fish that get caught every time by its friendly MM ;)

I disagree. The markets are TOTALLY different. I TOTALLY agree :cool:

Yes, there are.

Again, this has been deeply discussed. Spot is different from futures. If I want (need) to trade spot, is because i don't want to (I can't) trade futures. It's not "what is better than", is "what I want".
