Yes. Trade was lost. It wasn't margined but it was my fault at how much was lost. I leveraged too much at the wrong time. I did not follow my own rules and paid for it.

I transferred $100 to get the account back to trading again. This time, I'm following my rules to the t. It will probably take 4 years to get my goal. This time, if there is a loss and can't recover according to my rules than it will never work.

Would love to know how you managed to get 39 pips today. My trade also opened at 0615 GMT but got closed out at 0900 GMT with two pips profit. Are you still trading with Hotforex?

I like this bit:

Average Win: 17.89 pips / $9.60
Average Loss: -209.20 pips / -$226.82

Looks like you're on to a real winner there. $2m in no time!

No time meaning 4 years maybe. Yes, it's the best system I've ever seen.

tkbieber started this thread +39.8 Pips.

Now, I'm back to risking just 15% per trade. Had I risked 15% during the last loss, it would be back 100% and on to gaining again. I thought about just starting a fresh account with fresh history but I'm just going to leave it go. I'm hoping to see a more steady growth from now on.
