tough day yesterday, 2 trades both losers, struggled to get in on any moves.

Started attempt no 2 today, feel ive made the adjustments needed to nail this. Set myself a target of £500 per day. I stop trading if reached/exceeded. Anything above $250 puts me on target to pass the challenge. Today was at $5 pp the .1 was a trade placed on a chart that I had not adjusted...

Boom! 4 week period is done, needles to say i did not do as well as I thought I would, may give it another go in the future, I think the principal is sound and fair. If you end in profit without breaking th eloss rules, you get a free repeat, if you make 5% you get a 14 day extension. so the...

This week has been much better, I feel i have been more in sync with market movements, Goal is now to land in the green before the end of the challenge (4 more trading days) in order to qualify for the free repeat.

no improvement on my peformance last week, challenge is looking like a lost cause, only option now is to trade size that gives me a max of 3 losers in a row before wipe out. I imagine my challlenge will come to an end soon and it will be bak to the drawing board.

Rough week, massively down on the account. Its amazing how a few poor days along with the pressure of the deadline can make you doubt yourself and start tinkering, or maybe the tinkering comes first and the doubt after! target is now to get to +2.5% in order to secure the extension but will be...

Well I went live on Wednseday and I had a mare, discipline and focus went out the window and i ended up chasing a trade and having 4 losers in quick succession, doh! That dented my confidance on thursday and friday resulting in one flat trade on thursday and 1 loser on friday. Weekend...

After several years away from trading I've got the itch again and have been messing about with a small IG account, Google algorithims then led me to the FTMO challenge and I thought it sounded like a good idea, after making sure I was happy with my stratagy I did the free trial and will now be...

Well at least we both agree that the trend is down even if it is a crappy one, things should pick up next week.

This thread caught my eye because I also trade the Dax and seeing as you have shared and I believe this thread has the potential to be a great thread on trading pullbacks on the Dax below is a chart of the levels i've been looking at this week.

Morning Chalky, Sorry if I came across as negative, it was not my intention. I did take the time to watch the videos. They are a nice introduction to how price action can be combined with fib levels and Eliot wave theory to create a trading plan without actually giving away what that plan is...

Hi Chalky, I take it your either looking for feedback on the presentation or fishing for signups to the ret of the course, If its just feedback then which aspect of the presentation do you want feedback on, (content or delivery) if its the latter then best to get a vendor badge before the...

Lets leave it at that you have your interpretation and I have mine, everyone else can make up their own mind.

Whilst the definitive answer to this question cannot be given without a full understanding of the facts involved in each case, HM Revenue & Customs are very clear in their guidance manuals that ‘The fact that a taxpayer had a system by which they place their bets or that they are sufficiently...

Don't waste your time or stoop to his level of name calling Forker thinks that spread betting is a trade :rolleyes:
