Thanks for the thread. I've been a paramedic for 22 years this year and after trading for a few years I decided to have leave without pay from work to have a crack at trading for a living. My results have been similar to your first adventure trading ...

Technical Analysis is for Dummies

Hey Ric thanks for your response. I have to say it's nice popping into a thread where people have given pleasant reasonable responses. It's a shame theres so much toxicity on FF. If people spent more time simply posting their trades and being polite ...

Ah yes apologies, I made a mistake with my recollection.. thanks for finding it. The accurate statement was of similarly offensive ilk, and it's interesting that he requests no trolls on his threads..

False Prophets

If i recall correctly I had demo accounts with pepperstone, and they expire after 1 month ? So I think I had 2 months on demo. I think I then opened a live account of $1k which quickly dwindled, and for 2 years I fed $200 in every few months. I ...

Ha. Closed last 2 trades manually before SL.

You misunderstood me. I had a net profit of $2k . After all my trades total, going up and down and up and down I'd made $100k and lost $98k. I don't think my equity got above $8k at any time til then. Scalping on 5 min chart up to 20 trades/day
