    Does anyone trade with a 2:1 Risk/Reward ratio?

    Does anyone trade with a 2:1 Risk/Reward ratio?

    Hi! It's quite possible. I'm doing it for the past three months now. I also did it today. 20 pips isn't so hard to grab, if you stick to high probability entries - I always follow the H1 trend, I buy/short near TL's and S&R's and more or less, that's it. My February success rate is 94% (16...

    Does anyone trade with a 2:1 Risk/Reward ratio?

    For the past few months it was, yes. I've made all kinds of possible scenarios (setting profit targets at 25, 30 and 40 pips, while having a 40 pip TSL in place) based on my actual trades and I always came to the same conclusion - 20 pip profits get hit all the time and it is by far the most...

    Where is the location of "Alerts" in MT4?

    Hi guys, does anyone happen to know, where are the "Alerts" (from the Terminal window) saved? I'd like to synchronize these values between two computers (just like the Profiles folder) but I don't know how to. Any help is much appreciated! Thanks.

    Hi everyone, I'm trying to find a MetaTrader 4 platform with charts of Crude Oil, Gold, S&P mini futures and US Dollar Index. I've tried to download and install several different demo platforms, but none has all of it. As a matter of fact, the only chart I have found is a Gold chart. I'm not...

    Micro, Mini and Standard Accounts?

    Hi! In financial literature it is widely suggested, that "...you have at least $100,000 of trading capital before opening a “standard account”, $10,000 for a “mini account”, or $1,000 for a “micro account”. I wonder if this also applies to "real life" situations? I've read somewhere that one...
