Do you still have multiple accounts?

Yes ,by pure agents . More of them author tryed to perform
task to win trader contest in different countries -USA ,Swiss,Germany ,France.

But today is not activ as loosed last prize money .

Author trade with folloving risk management rule -

Trading only with money which was won by
trader contest with entry without charge .

All top performer as Mark D .Cook ,Martin Schwartz and
Bernard Baruch have had multiple years of trading loss'es

Better not to make any loss and you would be better
as 95% of retail operator's ,which would loose the game through years .

Only one from 20000 - 50000 retails would make for 10 years
some 2-5 mln $ from stock.

Exist not any scientific evidence ,that this person would author ...

Quote from Sam Mcgee:

I've read that with a Forex account you're dealing with a lot of leverage and that you can be liable for losses beyond the money that you have in the account. I remember someone saying though, with some Forex companies you'd just lose what's in your account, nothing beyond that.

I've just opened an account with FXCM for a few thousand dollars to experiment with some risky trading methods. Does anyone know if FXCM would hold me liable for losses beyond what's in my account? I don't mind if I lost everything in the account but I wouldn't want to be liable for more than that.

Forex brokers that do bucketing (simulating trades, without actually placing your orders in the interbank market), usually also simulate liquidations exactly at 100% loss. They made 100% of your money, enough.

On ECNs or futures it is theoretically possible to have losses beyond your ccount. Almost always they liquidate before a 100% loss, to leave some room for unexpected volatility.

In real life I had never heard from anyone who got into debt with the Forex broker, be it bucketshop, ECN or futures.

In my opinion, if you trade that near at a margin call, that this is a realistic posibility, you are doing something wrong anyways.

I was just thinking the same thing :eek:
