Quote from jbt:
We trade event risk with the following parameters:
1. 2 units
2. Stop of 60 points (120 point total risk)
3, 1st Target is 30 points
4. Position moves to breakeven
5. 2nd unit is actively managed to obtain 100+ points.
How often do we make 100+ on the 2nd unit? - about 20% of the time
Trades last anywhere from 3-24 hours
Respect for your openness.

If you are such a good trader , why didn't FXCM offer you a job to trade their managed accounts porgrams ?????????!!!!!!!!
Since none of the managed account programs is making any profit.....

Ley me get the logic here : the traders in control of the managed accounts SUCK big time and on the other hand the head analysts Boris & Kathy are claiming they banked 2000 pips, makes PERFECT SENSE LOL
We are no longer with FXCM.
The FXCM managed money program never had anything to do with us. We are discretionary traders and that program is all algo driven.
BKT is our signal service totally separate from our work as analysts at GFT.
You may actually want to visit the site and do some research before making false accusations.
We claim nothing. Everything I stated on this thread is fact backed by trading records and transcripts. We are one of the currency analyst teams on Wall Street that actually trades the market on a near daily basis.

Quote from Surdo:
I did a trial last year, lets just leave it at that.
From the bitterness in your tone it sounds like you caught the service during a drawdown, which is unfortunate.
Like all good traders, we have refined our model considerably since then and the results have been dramatically better.
As I said, our current streak of 20 positive trades in a row may well end quite soon, but we remain confident in the over all efficacy of our approach, and I am, as a matter of fact, now adopting it for much shorter time frames with very good results so far.

Unfortunately my account took on a bit of water using several of your signals, but I am a big boy and made it back in my futures trading later in the month.
I wish you luck with your service, and perhaps did not need to be so harsh earlier in the thread!
Your pdf ebook was certainly valuable.
good trading,
surdo

Sorry, but struggling to make sense here, why two units? Why not one unit at 60pts risk? Unless, you going long and short the same pair at the outset?
You have a very simple mistake going on here, but it makes no sense me telling you that unless i tell you the mistake. Maybe you know but just not saying. Anyway explain where this 120point risk comes from?
also what %wins do you have on the first unit?
Your seccond unit is not profitable since you make 100points 20% of the time and loose 60points 80% of the time which results in a net loss.

2 units each has -60 point stop so total risk is -120
we use 2 units because we want to bank some quick short term profit and then try to milk the rest for triple digits if we can
