Well, sitting in front of a screen all day, straining your eyes, and earning just 10 dollars isn’t much. Prop firms don’t allow arbitrage...

But the system is stable, because there are always patterns in arbitrage.

Today I read about and had a look at ‘this’ miracle

Conclusion: they’re raking in initial deposits from suckers; the terms are absolutely staggering – a classic MMM scam

Drawdown of up to 10% 😁

I’ve just opened a couple of positions, and the spread alone requires 1%

P.S. Do you know anyone who’s stuck there for more than two weeks?

 

I think you’re right about prop trading. I used to think it was just another scam for idiots, too.

Vitaly, could you please advise me again on the Reverse strategy? This is the signal currently showing on the indicator. One line is at the bottom, the other is much higher.

How should we open positions correctly?

I’ve already mentioned that if things don’t go to plan, simply averaging out the same lots will sort it out; this happened the week before last with the yen trade.
I’d like to ask you all: at what percentage of drawdown on your account do you average down?

They’re all closed apart from the new one that opened an hour ago – I did say so.

After a big move and the next signal.

The drawdown itself is small; the second trade always recovers the loss.

Well, ahem

For me, tomorrow is a long way off from the daily grind

It’s a whole system; you can’t just make a decision on a whim.

I’ve laid everything out down to the last kopeck; I used to trade without some of the indicators, but I’ve now included them as well – it’s made selection much easier and the entry points are more accurate

When opening positions on the outlying currency pairs, I was also guided by these
