Yea, pretty heavy loss. If any trader uses averaging, then it is must to except loss at some point on a losing position. Normally having maximum hold time limit like end of day or 1-2 days is a good start. He got stuck in strong bull trend when S&P ...

I agree that trading larger funds is harder than trading or multiplying smaller funds. You cannot replace 500K as easily as 500 dollars. Yep, so that is what is roughly happening here. 100% profit is the target with a minimum starting capital. ...

That's good growth chart. But participating in this competition requires that you announce first and make trading fully public. If you are interested in that, then let me know.

Nah! Don't take loans. Period. Start with the capital you have. If you are that good. It will increase organically.

Taking loans to trade is very short sighted. Best of luck to those who want to try it. I personally think no one should do it. If some one suggests that taking loans to trade is ok, he doesn't have any interest in your well being or have no idea ...

Mate, please don't take credit card loans to trade. That can be financial suicide. It is better to maw lawns for a month and save 500 first than to take a loan and that from a credit card company. That is a great idea. I am all for it. Would you be ...

Just look at it. This is the difference between trading in public vs private. A solid Grade-A private trading day (+3.66%). image

Awesome. Can you fund with account to reach balance of 1000?

(binned per thread starter's request) Friendly Trading Competitio

Not much different that we have here. A draw down limit with a target AND multiple rounds. 5 times the profit. Totally my fault. Normally for me, on good days, it doesn't exceed 20%.

(binned per thread starter's request) Friendly Trading Competitio

Just an announcement, I will be removing money from competition account to other private account and will fund it or perhaps a ctrader account this time once again when we get a few people ready for the Round # 2 of the competition

Awesome. That is great. Would like to share a few words about how you trade? I will add that to the first post for others to see. Also, can you please make trades and balance public in your Trade Explorer so that people can see it is more than 1K.
