Which of the following would you prefer in a trading strategy? - page 2

 

Most people vote first option, but it is a curious fact that the bestsellers EAs on the MQL5 market seems more aligned with the second option, i.e., 1000% in a week.

Maybe this could be a good discussion of this topic.

There is absolutely no comparison,  anyone who votes for 1000% once cannot add up and has no business trading.  
I stand by my earlier comment ;-)
 
Raptor admited he lost 150,000 pounds in forex. That must have been jackpot style to lose such a big amount. I do agree some people pretend to hate jackpot style but they attempt it in real life.

No,  he didn't . . . read what I wrote  . . .  twice.
 

The proof is in the pudding.

Cost  not  Lost.
 

10%_Per_Month_Compounding safe? Thats more balance in one year than the "Personal income in the United States" on $10,000. Why would everyone keep working jobs if these types of returns were safe?

  •   The Jackpot should have been 10% or more per_month.
  •   The Realistic should have been 1% or less per_month.

That would have been allot more interesting.

Cost? What cost is there in trading forex? Mt4 is free, you are a coder you can code anything for free and also trading accounts are free the only thing that takes money is the deposit or did you hire a space station to trade in zero gravity for maximum concentration so as to cost 150k pounds. Where did this fund go to? The 150 grand shall be declared.
