    this is forex market, its too volatile i doubt you cant have something stable enough.

    but provider's are good - you can always go to the next good one/s ;) zulutrades' full of them.

    and do not forget to use the tools to protect your accounts ;)

    With small account, it is possible to achieve 25-35% return per month, but for limited time. I am saying "possible" coz usually traders use very high leverage on small accounts in order to gain big amounts which causes high return rate (if they r profiting). But in the end as the account gets bigger (lot size remains same), return rate will fall. If u make ur lot size bigger (proportionate to ur account), there is chance that u will loose everything within few days bcoz u r exposing urself to high risk.

    Bottom line is 25% return per month, on consistent basis, is unrealistic goal.

     

     

    deppends on the size of the account. mine is small but not that small (i put 5000 euros). anyhow for me works pretty find and trust me this is an undervalued expectations, as there are people that make much more money, though I tend to be of more risk aversive nature ;)

    happy pipping, mate! ;)

    well, i would say realistic goals are for me - small account with returns of 25-35% monthly with very small risk invloved. no more than following of 5 providers and corresponding trades. realistic goals are also to havea secured platform and brokers, registered and all (like mine for example zulutrade and aaafx, for example) that will guarantee that if smth goes wrong everything will be secured.

    forex is cosidered to be risky, when you are not using the right tool or platform, when you apply smart account management and thus protect your account, well then it is much more easiler to trade and actually enjoy forex. this is what i am doing on zulutreade - small accounts, small risk but protected to copy the trades signals of others. :)

    not worth to you of course!

     

    there are others that are making a lot of money on both sides. you know if smth is not working doesnt make it bad.....like me and poker - cant understand it but i know and see people making hugeeeee money out of it. ;)

     

    regards to you to and good luck trading. :)

    please save you and us(your fulture followers) a lot of trouble of becoming a trader. seems you are still learning the process of trading.read and read a lot before choosing a broker and calculating entry and exit levels and roll over fees. better stick to manual trading and out of the forums and things you tend to understand wrong.

  19. Posted

    Yeah but it got updated! seems your intention is to pick up on things that arent there and present misleading information. :spam::spam:

     

    Again trust me, if there was any misrepresentation in the PnL calculations people would've been talking about it in every forum in every thread , even in the regulated ones.

    I strongly support the non-paying rules - providers should NoT be compensated when they burst our accounts into flames.:helloooo:

     

    so, at the endi you did not tell me........are you a follower or you are a trader?

  20. Posted

    yeah right, I got your point ........what you are spamming with things that do not exist. checked both versions of the website and they both show a postitive profit of +7.9 pips.

    What are you trying to do? you did a screen shot at some point that it was showing wrong and draw a conclution that is it wrong??

     

    and as for the math that you are trying to do is ridiculous seriously.....you cant want a monthly PnL graph to be to the point exact before the month is closed and all the broker's entry exit are set and calcualted.

    After that, if this was wrong, which is obviously not, everybody will be screaming, talking and complainging about it, like everywhere!! :doh:

  21. Posted

    I doubt its wrong, obviously you missing something here.

     

    1.25548(exit) - 1.25896 (entry) = - 34.80 pips. 2 days trade - the roll over fee not taken into consideration, as well as any market opening and closing price in between. simple as that.

    which other SPs calculation you are having any doubts ??

  22. Posted

    ohhh i see, you are asking the moving trend of the trade...as I user i can only see the opening and closing date and the corresponding entry exit levels.

     

    those "-80pips".....where do you see them exactly?......dont forget there is a roll-over fee of the broker (-0.62) for that trade......but anyhow, why so much fuss about one trade?

    talk to support - both zulutrade and your broker to investigate this difference. zulutrade doesnt give you currencies fluctuations it is your broker that calculates the trafe profit/loss and the rest is represented cummulatively in your PnL account, so I know of course.

    Hi guys :)

     

    I was looking at zulutrade site and signal provider’ performances when jumped out to me a particular that I’m not able to understand and concern some signal provider.

     

    I can’t understand how zulutrade calculates the performances…

    Here following a screenshot showing what I’m referring to precisely:

     

    wrongcalculation.jpg

     

    The Total PnL (that stands for Profits and Losses) is calculated this way: sum of all closed positions in a given month + sum of all floating positions in that month.

    Let’s take as example the current month, January 2013, as we can see from the screenshot there are no current open positions (so floating = 0), the only trade done in 2013 have been closed with a 34.8 pips loss.

    So why the Total PnL for January 2013 quotes -69.2 pips loss?

     

    Have you guys any idea about that?

     

    Many thanks.

     

    can you tell us which providers are you talking about? cuz it doesnt show the total history...the monthly PnL might be a bit higher from a previous negative trade..thats what;s comes to my mind at least for now ....:)

    I take funds under management since September (actually 1st client was able to connect in October, but anyway :) ), of course not anywhere near having 91% winning trades or similar ridiculous promises. :)

     

    Here's my 2 month track record so far, account @ Alpari UK actually tracks performance for managed accounts (I have live clients there already connected).

     

    cornix's Profile | Myfxbook

     

    Previous account @ Oanda just gives approximate overview of performance during part of August (I took a break after for personal reasons).

     

    corniforex, i was awaiting your reply...what happened with you and zulutrade?

    you disappered!! :doh: why??

  25. Posted

    corniforex, i searched for you on among the traders but your account is not there anymore...i think your went wrong somewhere along the lines with trading...i guess one can not always adapt strategies to the zulutrade and the brokers requirements ......
