Using TopGun Software.
 
No system. Just our discretionary calls. You should know I have seen more money lost on systematic trading than by any other means.

Quote from shipeichong: However, after my graduation, which is one and a half year later, I have plans of being able to go into Forex trading full time one day. I will like to use my free time outside of studying this one and a half year to brush up my skill as a Forex trader.

Some suggestions: Have alot of money saved up when you go out on your own for your living expences, live cheaply, have a job to fall back onto if you blow up. If you can manage it without another job - that is better, although it gets lonely. Also, even when you have your trading capital, don't trade it unless you can watch the screen in real time for a few months. Hindsite trading is easy - but watching it live with hard earned (in the begginning) dollars for hours at time is something else..Undertrade as much as you can in fx - there are not that many tradeable moves and you don't want to be in and out in such a market - it's a bit wippier than most. Be ready to spend many hours in front of your pc, but not necessarily glued to it - you only want to be glued to it when price is in the zone. Use multiple time frames/screens and a good data providor, because the people on the other side of your trade probably are and it helps to know the odds a little better if you do. Don't rush - if your on a good thing you will be rich in no time.

Fx trading does make you a little reclusive though, you will age faster than normal - so watch your health. Sleep will be messed up - especially in the US time zone trying to catch the Euro market open - you must be there at that time. 24 hour markets are intense - you don't know when the move is going to happen in the 1440 minutes of the day. Stay positive, if you find yourself looking at a chart pattern that you missed don't dwell on it too much - it is a form of self punishment that will not be beneficial. Get into higher time frames as your main. Take up yoga/swimming - change your life in everyway and the bottom line will come good. Firm determination. Can't stress how important this last point is - never give in. Undertrade.

Hope this helps
 
Quote from jane_sawyer:

How right you are I have similar experiences wherein the more I try to break even, the greater my losses become. Fortunately, my friend referred me to a firm located in the British Virgin Islands that was able to help me recover a portion of the losses I incurred with currency trading. Even though the firm was not able to help me recover all and break even, I’m still thankful nevertheless.
