I am planning to journal the "Crazy" trading here, if all do not mind.
And instead of doing it over 24 months, I am trying to do it in 12 months (crazy).

Cheers.
** please read the "years" as "months". Total 12 periods.
** target end results: USD $271k
** fellow traders are welcome to join in this crazy challenge. Please start with small capital.

You're going to achieve it through scalping? Or what? I like to achieve 100% return monthly. But use what method to play forex to achieve such returns? All in each time?

And instead of doing it over 24 months, I am trying to do it in 12 months (crazy).
In absolute figure, it will translate to a 69% per month.
Some rules:
1) initial capital of USD $500.
2) if initial capital drop below USD $500, I will need to top it up to original USD $500. This is to keep the capital healthy to kick start the compounding effects.
3) as with 2, my total capital may be more than USD $500, but I do not see it will exceed more than USD $1,000 I hope.
4) I will report the account value, and the compounded % at end of month. This first report will be out on 1st Oct 2017.

Any constructive feedback will be welcome.

Cheers.

Wow indeed 'crazy' trading mission by Mr. LucentFX but I wish him all the best. :)

One thing to take note is once you start to pressure yourself to perform in order to achieve an overly ambitious objective then that is where things may not turn out the way you envision. You may resort to take unwarranted risks.

You're going to achieve it through scalping? Or what? I like to achieve 100% return monthly. But use what method to play forex to achieve such returns? All in each time?

I have a feeling he is using the 'doubling down' stakes strategy which is popular in card and table games. :D

I do not mind Mr. LucentFX posting his trading 'journal' here. It is a good thing that there are more participants on this thread. :s13:

I will be posting the results on a monthly basis, with P/L and % figures, starting a thread to journal single entry a month is not efficient. Hope to just post the single entry here.

We trade in this manner:
1) selected fx pairs and gold.
2) all positions will be entered immediately with a TP and SL values.
3) average trade holding period no longer than 4 hours. This is to minimized exposure to the market.
4) no martingale, it's a killer.
5 no carrying trades over the weekend. In fact all trades to close within the day, unless they are triggered near end US session and carried over the next day.
6)TP % per trade range from 3% to 8%, SL % per trade range from 2% to 6%, depending on the pairs traded.

Cheers!

Jin power Mr Canberra. Speechless. Consistent earnings for past few months.

Thanks for the encouragement. :D

My goal is to earn consistent KFC/Din Tai Fung profits daily. No pressure will enable me to trade more successfully. Can stay more focused this way. :s13:

The most rewarding trades will happen when you least expect it.
