    Can someone please help me get in touch with ES YM? I didn't realize he was banned, but I need to mail him urgently. Thank you.

    On the contrary, I agree. I would recommend against investing in someone without a track record. But I have one, unfortunately no one seems interested... With so many people buying systems and clicking on adverts, paying for chat room signal services,... I thought my proposal was something...

    Is someone who traded for 5 years but blown out twice in that time more "proven" than someone who's backtested his strategy for 2 years, papertraded for another year, and is now live for a year with consistent monthly profits (with trading records to back up those claims) of about 20% with low...

    Thanks. I am glad this misunderstanding has been cleared up. I definitely would not like anyone who reads this thread to get the wrong idea about my risk vision towards trading someone else's money... You said something about trading ETX capital account, did you attract potential investors...

    That's not the point though. People are clearly misinterpreting what I said. If you traded money from a relatively like I did, it was all but a pleasant experience. These people who don't know anything about trading or investing keep harassing you, "what are you buying now?", "I heard in the...

    I'll definitely explore zupcon's idea, that site looks interesting. Going back to a full time job is not really my idea of getting ahead. To start with, I'd need to explain the "gap" in my career, explain why I quit my previous job, show some kind of commitment that I won't walk away after 6-12...

    Would you care to explain a bit more, why I am "too high risk"?

    Nicely put, but a generalization which says nothing about my situation, which you clearly have not taken the time to inquire about. First of all, I don't own a house. Second I don't have any savings. Third, if I had, I would put them in my trading account straight away, because it would sure be...

    Please don't turn my words around into something I didn't say. If you don't understand why trading money for a friend or relative brings on a lot more pressure than for a stranger, ask someone else to explain... What does it mean "forum guide"? No one in the world of investing is looking for...

    And if I stop eating & drinking I can save another £150, but I still won't be able to compound anything worth mentioning :)

    Everything is real-time, live trading, no demo or papertrading. Trading friends or families money is much more stressful, if something went wrong I would forever be carrying the stigma of the person who lost money. I don't have issues with trading size...rather the opposite: I prefer to make...

    Yes I have... but because I trade morning & afternoon and if I work half-time I'd probably need to leave positions open unmonitored during news and all sort of events... I don't like the thought & risk of that. Also, it's not that easy finding a part time job if you have a hole in your cv...

    Strategy: discretionary, intraday, trend-following Trades: 2-5 per day per instrument (FX and futures) Screen time: 3 hours in morning (European session), 3 hours in afternoon (US session) Risk: 1-2% per trade Average is 20-30% per month, worst month is breakeven (but I only traded 2 weeks...

    Hi, I hope this isn't the wrong place to post... but... I have a consistently profitable strategy which I've backtested thoroughly, papertraded for a year and traded live this year. I'm averaging about 20% per month, but due to my financial situation I can't compound and need to take out all...
