Hmm, yeah self-pity won't get me anywhere. Neither does forex.I keep deluding myself thinking forex will work because I can't see anything else as remotely possible to give me an escape from the mundane drudgery of reality. I will keep believing this lie, until my grave. I will keep dreaming of a life outside work, where I can achieve what I want when I want.Such a farce, but what choice have I got? Well, I could earn more in a regular bank savings account - at least I would only go forward rather than losing everything I save.

IC Markets are asking me to open a new account if I want to keep my IB.Guess I don't have a choice. This account is stuffed anyway.My finances are stuffed anyway. I guess I can open another account and continue to stuff things up there too.It is impossible to teach a fool any lesson. Best leave a fool to his folly. Destiny has obviously preached that I am to die a pauper. Can death come any swifter to put me out of my misery?

Hmm... 60% is NOT so very low drawdown. 😕

MyFxBook EA and Metatrader 4 - Build 600 in General Feb 15, 2014 at 17:50

http://4xtrader.net/mt4-build-600-why-you-should-not-update-it/MetaQuotes does some really f*cked up sh*t (apart from forced updates to botched versions).Next thing you know, MQ will force an update to a version containing a virus or spyware to everyone's computers, all in their insatiable hunger for greed and power.Actions speak louder than words: their actions say a lot about them as a company. They don't care about their own reputation, about what others may think of them, or about the effect their actions have on the end users (us). Seems their confidence in market share has gone t...

Hmm, well, I installed the new Myfxbook EA, and I got a new error:2014.02.15 11:02:16.381 Cannot load 'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\C99F096D87CEFCF493233C12C6AD11E1\MQL4\Libraries\Kernel32.dll'No I can't do a better job, but MQ should know what they are doing (they are SUPPOSED to be professionals, but this raises serious questions about their understanding and/or ethics)! Build 600 has been just a shemozzle. 😞A great free product has just turned to crap overnight... anyone thinking about reverse-engineering an MT4 build less than 600 so we can...

Really unhappy with the forced upgrade to 600.Now, will MetaQuotes compensate those traders that suffer loss of income because their EAs will no longer work on the new build?Or what of all the many companies which sell EAs or provide signal services (not to mention the plethora of brokers that depend on MT4) that will now suffer economic loss as a result of this forced update to a botched version?One day the platform works fine, the next day everything stops working. How should the trading community view such an act?If MQ were based in the US surely this could be considered an act of terrorism...

What the hell has MetaQuotes done with version 600? Where the f*ck are the optimum preset files I saved?I will gladly accept correction if I am wrong, but it seems this d*cks have managed to stuff things up again. Pity on those that don't have their preset files backed up - seems they are gonna be lost forever! 😞

IC MARKETS REAL 313166 in Trading Systems Feb 14, 2014 at 11:12

...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...

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! 😎

@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. 😎
