...what makes it worse is that those two trades (buy GBPUSD and GBPCHF) would have made considerable profits on my account. 😞Ah, crap. I can't work out if I do this on purpose to stuff myself up, or if I really am just plain foolish.I gotta remember - I guess they just as easily could have made considerably larger losses.

Faaarrrrk! I gotta keep away from trading - manual trading that is! My lame ass attempt at trading just wastes money - AUD$160 just thrown away in a couple of minutes - my next shift at work is on a volunteer basis. Why do I keep trying myself? I know I can't trade. 95% of traders LOSE - what makes me think I can be a part of the 5%?On that basis, 95% of EAs should also LOSE. The 5% (probably less) of EAs that are winning ones are certainly unlikely to be found in any public forum......but I keep looking, and keep looking, and keep looking, and keep looking, and keep looking, and keep look...

Mediocre broker - better than some I have tried though. Customer service sometimes lacking, though easily reached with phone in Australia.Regulated in Australia, so pretty safe (I guess).Main gripe: 200 maximum orders open at any time! So much for HFT systems that require lots of trades at once!

Hi Jayman, can you please share your preset files here? Thanks!

Hmm, crazy. You can't predict the market. I probably didn't have to lose $600 like I did. For now it will take me almost a week to make back from work (slavery)... 😞

Closed off the losing GBPUSD trades from PGEA. I should have closed when i would only have lost $100, but I expected it would make a profit. The market was continuing in the wrong direction so I was not willing to accept further losses. Losing $570 is better than the entire account.Taken off PGEA for now.I realise it is hard to emulate the smooth growth curve at the beginning of this account because this is mostly due to the high contribution of funds and the frequent increasing of risk (therefore, the "perception" of growth of the account). Nothing spectacular like "organic&quo...

Migrating MT4 terminals to VPS X-connected to IC Markets. Hoping to reduce latency (according to BeeksFX) from 2 ms to 0.5 ms. In turn hopefully the EAs will perform better (sometimes I wonder why they make stupid losing trades, and I am guessing they get bad fills due to latency perhaps...?)I noticed my primary EA hit stoploss, despite exceeding this price earlier...? I don't know what to make of that. Is that due to the speed of the new server? Suddenly my EA could get stopped out where it couldn't before? I don't know....bummer, there goes my 2.55% gains for today - and then som...

News just in!http://www.forexbrokerz.com/news/sphantom-ea-problems-money-management@forexpipcatcha Of course, I only share this to be unhelpful... 😝 I can't help myself even! Aren't I a sore loser? lolOn a serious note, I am sad to hear of pps losses and I hope you all make the money back soon. 😞Speaking for myself, it was fascinating to watch while it lasted! 😎

“Never argue with a fool, onlookers may not be able to tell the difference.” Mark Twain. On that note, I am unsubscribing.@corre71 I agree, keep to topic here - discussion of sPhantom ONLY. My bad on making a well-intentioned (yet totally inappropriate) suggestion...God bless you. 😎Edit: I never lost money on this "shitty sPhan shit" (thankfully!) lol 😉Oops...“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” Napoleon Bonaparte

@forexpipcatcha To those I helped, they know. To you, obviously you have learnt nothing (from me). But I do agree, each individual is encouraged to make their own mind up on how they want to make (or lose) their money. No one (least of all me) should make up their mind for them.Oh, thanks for calling out GPS Forex Robot as a scam - your opinion (although I disagree) is much appreciated. 😄Another sore loser. Don't be so negative! 😎 If you lost money with GPS, then I suggest either your broker was crap (as many are) or you used the wrong settings. If you haven't lost mone...

Sorry folks! Short of Privating my entire portfolio and going "underground", I am now Privating only my Magic tag analysis, TP/SL and trade comments. I would love to show everything, but a small element of society discourages me from helping my fellow trader.Instead, to avoid any possible accusation of commercial use I will no longer make mention of what EAs I am testing. The 1% can ruin it for the 99%. But I hope in all honesty that karma prevails and folks will get their justice deserved. 😎

I appreciate your honest question, and I will answer you here: Sorry, I can't point you to an independent, real, current account that is good on myfxbook. The honest reason is because I don't know of one, and there may not even be one. 😞With that said, there is solid evidence out there and it is up to the individual to use their God-given brain to make their own decision. NOTHING is free - it may cost time instead of money.And with the presence of detractors such as "corre71" that label everything under the sun a "scam" without evidence, yet whole-heartedly ...

@corre71 Thanks for your feedback - I don't often offer advice like that, and now I think I won't offer any further advice. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but obviously good intentions mean nothing here.I don't think I have done anything more than what I see everyone else doing on every forum (although perhaps including my affiliate link is not a good idea). GPS Forex Robot is not my product - I am only suggesting it.Apologies to everyone. Happy trading! 😎

I trust ClickBank only. I remember there was one or two other payment processors but they are not well-known / significant.With Paypal, I don't like your chances. I have had numerous refund requests rejected because Paypal cite "as this is an intangible product there is no buyer protection." I truly wish you would get your money back (and mine), but don't get your hopes up. 😞With that said, it really is up to the vendor to honour any money-back guarantee they promised. Paypal will support the vendor in their decision.You can try a chargeback to recover the funds, but ...

You just keep thinking that mate - folks like you don't deserve the good things in life. 😎Just don't discourage others who may be looking for a solution - let others judge for themselves. 😡I am amazed that folks believe sPhantom to be something other than FX Papa (a proven scam), yet they call genuine products with proof of long-term profitability (like GPS) a scam...?1. If you are joking, it's not funny.2. If you are trying to keep secret what is an excellent product, it's not working. And a bit late for that too - I've known GPS since 2008-2009, so they ha...

I disagree: EAs are for intelligent traders, MANUAL TRADING is for gamblers (and sometimes traders).You cannot create an EA without being able to explicitly define your system. Any good manual trader has discipline to follow their system TO THE 'T'. But 90% of traders lose money in forex - usually attributed to a lack of discipline and emotional interference. Isn't this what is called "gambling"?EAs lose money because either the strategy is poor to begin with, or the wrong settings are used (or you are using a scam broker, in which case you have NO HOPE of making money tr...

Do you think 1000% a year is sufficient ? What is your performance ? in General Jan 31, 2014 at 19:56

Who says I am worried? I'm just answering the question to the best of my (limited) knowledge and understanding. 😎If anything, I would love to see the entire system COLLAPSE, and a new system of banking implemented. Eg. one where THE GOVERNMENT / PEOPLE control the money supply (as with Abraham Lincoln and Greenbacks), and not a private secretive clique of society, or a society where money does not exist (ZeitGeist 2011: Moving Forward documentary).Anyone with a better explanation of what goes on in the global financial market is welcome to answer with their opinion. I think it is a...

Good question. Considering we are dealing with a ponzi scheme on the grandest of scales, with fractional reserve banking, fiat currency, and debt attached to every dollar in circulation the globe over, perhaps the grand scam will finally be revealed and we shall see hyper-inflation the likes of Zimbabwe (in recent history) and many other nations, including Germany during the early 20th Century.In my uneducated mind, I might guesstimate that 99% of money is electronic, and only 1% is actually in physical circulation (can someone confirm this?).If anything will happen, I think a bank might go &q...
