FTMO Challenge

Started another £35000 free trial.Two main strategies.I think if I can do two in a row profitable then that's the strategies sorted and bedded in.Not for another FTMO challenge but for the odd futures trade in the IB account.

If you can't do it in a trade or three a day you're fooling yourself

I was £8 down so thought 'I'll just put that right before signing off...'

Well done! I managed 1 trade this morning shorting DAX.

I am impressed by the 64 trades you had on the 24th.
Are these manual or auto?
What is your style?
Adding to winners, averaging, aggregation?
Curious, without seeing the specific Buys/Sells.

Good stuff, good start to Monday.
Are you waiting for the US open now?
 
I was trying something new today but tried too many instruments and got too cocky with entries.As I mentioned I can't code so it's just guess work like someone on the job but never learning.I might have revived the paid challenge but it was so near wipe out I'd need 100 days to get it back with the minute size I'd have to start with.I'll try this method for this challenge and another free one then maybe if it's excellent and fits my personality I might even try a paid one again.That would have to be on one instrument at a time of course and whether I can stick to that I don't know.

Bit pointless as it's moot but they won't give me another one until next week

May do a little Tomorrow.Don't know why I can't escape this scalping mindset.Anything would work in this volatility.

Hoping we get one of those nasdaq moonshots as it comes off the bottom but a little close to lunch maybe.
 
That'll do.Nasdaq let me down.You can never tell if you're going to get a spit or a bow shot.

The intra-trade losses are factored, so you can close a win, but the drawdown during the trade is considered.
Which I think is fair enough, otherwise those traders who keep unrealised losses off-the-books as it were, get to trade a funded account.

Good result for you, though.
 
Excellent stuff, Here.
Over on lllllllll's thread, he got a good return, but he too broke the Max Daily Loss thing.

Somebody needs to salvage T2Ws reputation by winning a challenge!

Are you trying another?
 
This is another freebie.I'm not in a fit mindset to do another.If I can't do one free following the rules there's no point.I lost patience with the size.I'll finish this one and another and if I can do the next one following the rules I may try another challenge but it's not certain.
 
Lovely trend again.Don't know why I have this mindset.
