quite true, that why I am thinking to concentrate more on index, and forex scalping when I am free and boring :s13:

so far index future got more profit then forex and spend less time

Yes Forex trading is good if you have a lot of time to kill. Take it as like video gaming. :D

The swap will kill u first

he use philip no swap, just commission :s13:

Carry trade can be perpetual? Non commission account no need to pay swap? :s11:

yes, just like playing game, click and click


for Philip or local broker, mostly need to pay com and no swap, just that future have expiry date, actually you can look at index CFD which no expiry date but wider spread if you want.

Just read up a bit on CFD. It seems there is a daily finance cost. This is quite little compared to the gains.

I just make some simple calculation. If you profit a peanut 10 points from an index. Your gains after commission is about US$250 for 1 contract. Haha but of course if you lost 10 points you lose US$250 also. :s13:

Damn good for scalping and as the same strategy for Forex. The game is to win more than you lose. Just pay per turnaround commission will do.

yes, there is finance cost on CFD but is really little but I still prefer future index over CFD index as the price is direct from the exchange, the CFD index is consider money maker which mean control by the broker, that why they can make the spread wider and wider lolx :s13:

Quiet day.

Let's take some time to look at "compounding interest", one of the greatest invention ever.

Here's an example of small capital, hugh return. Let's see if we can achieve this.

30% monthly return, compound it for 2 years. The rest is history. (Change the "year" to "month").

Hope to see someone achieving it.

30% monthly.
I saw posting of profits vs capital used.
30% monthly is possible via this platform, however, consistently 30% month in month out is the challenging part.

30% per annual.... Where to find such products

30% yearly is like god level liao

30% returns per month which means 360% ROI p.a.! :eek:

Have one instrument that can give you such returns.

Bitcoin! :s13:

30% monthly.

If one can get 30%/monthly returns in 6 out of 12 months is considered genius liao! :D
