I thought you were going to advise or teach us how. I am new to trading and still a beginner and still studying. I need a mentor to help direct me through the right path. 

Never use a real account before your demo account has grown for at least a year first :)
- At least in a year there are 2 or 3 major fluctuations in the market and it is not known when they will occur.

Not all trading techniques can survive in such conditions.

Good luck.

Your post is epic.

I have cleared step 1, but my online marketing skills could fit on the head of a pin.

The first step to 'market' your system is a real, live myfxbook signal. The second step would be a realistic price. Since most EA's are garbage, you need to prove your's works
 
What strategy actually works?  All the secret ones !  You will never get to know anything about them from anybody - because wide knowledge of a successful strategy dilutes and eventually eliminates the edge.

That's a good point, especially considering the rising popularity of proprietary trading firms and their restrictions. A profitable trader makes her/his money by trading, while the rest is just a part-time hobby.
 
My experience is that complex logics don't guarantee better performance than simpler ones (and often have worse performance). The key is money management and risk management that can allow your EA to survive. And trading % of equity is much harder to control risks than trading fixed lots.

I completely agree with you.
