Thanks for the reply!

Ive already gone through their FAQ page, but it doesnt explain many things about how their system works...

Like the ranking of the signal providers and what settings should be used?

Also hedging and scalping is allowed?

Hi! A little late response, but i just discovered this forum :)

Hedging is allowed, depending on the broker you choose. Non-US brokers allow hedging. If you live outside the US you wont have a problem.

Scalping doesnt really work with zulutrade though...

Hello. I'm live with ZuluTrade and I wish to get in touch with other users to share winning strategies. To get my ZuluTrade Advanced Settings just drop an email to (Moderator: Please no email distribution, people can private message you - email address removed)

With the recent performance of the No1 provider in followers, fly on the wall and the impact he may had in many accounts (leading them to losses or a margin call), Id like to recommend some settings for him:

2 max open positions and depending on the lot size you use, 1 lots per position. This way you can follow his strategy to keep the trades open until they reach positive. This provider does not use a safe stop value, which is quite risky, but I think he is in knowledge of the market he is trading (GBP/JPY pair only)

PT multistation trading platform also has a trading community (called BeTrade) but, unlike Zulu, the community is within the platform itself, where you can share signals, sell signals, search for frinds to follow based on trading criteria (market, performance history, instruments, etc), view other traders' performances, etc...

I dont think he is a good signal provider, I dont know why so many people follow him.

I suggest you look for a provider that sets a stop/limit, isnt obsessed with 100% winning trades and has a low DD.

There are much better providers out there, you just need to look for them :cool:

maybe you're right! But I think that we should work on your system! I did this: he took no tracer expert, optimize it, ran a test and picked up the indicators give accurate signals and is ready

Yeah but it is not web based, so you cant access it from anywhere...plus I dont understand how do they get paid?

 

They get paid by pips. I don't remember exactly how much. I think it was an 1/8 of a pip per 4 or something like that.

Well I still find zulutrade much more user friendly. Plus the stats and performance of providers are very clearly presented so one can see exactly each providers trading trend.

Providers in zulu are also paid in pips/trade i think 0.4 or something. I dont know will have to look into both more.

If you have a live account you should get the new desktop widget! Pretty useful real-time live account monitoring tool, without the need to be logged in the zulu page!

Also they changed their demo system and demos are fully customizable

The usual deal is 1/2 in, 1/2 out. Unless they do a huge amount of volume.

Then they could probably negotiate a better deal.

Searching around other forex forums I found an interesting post on how to select good provider, I paste it here:

 

-look for providers that trade from a live account (green or blue $ next to their profile)

-DD in pips (not %) less than 2k pips or %DD less than 30%

-average pips/trade more than 20

-average trade time around 2-3hours but no less than 30mins

-trading more than 15weeks

-check which broker the provider is using compared to mine and look at the slippage charts.

-Monthly PnL (very important IMO).

 

Think its quite an interesting method :)

Thats one problem I face with zulu too. I dont know, try various settings/providers on your demo to see :)

Personally I dont set a custom stop but I set a custom limit, but not with all providers.

Dont risk too much though

Ok, I think now I get it! You allow small lots and trades each time for the providers, so you can have enough margin available and not hit a margin call, until the trades go green? At least thats what 2 providers I have on my demo do

There are two ways to deal with this and benefit:

1. Only allow 1-2 max open positions and calculate how much margin you will need for this provider

2. Avoid providers that leave their trades open until they go green and use providers that set a S/L and trade from a live account (green $ next to their profile)

    • Be careful who you blame.   I can tell you one thing for sure.   Effective traders don’t blame others when things start to go wrong.   You can hang onto your tendency to play the victim, or the martyr… but if you want to achieve in trading, you have to be prepared to take responsibility.   People assign reasons to outcomes, whether based on internal or external factors.   When traders face losses, it's common for them to blame bad luck, poor advice, or other external factors, rather than reflecting on their own personal attributes like arrogance, fear, or greed.   This is a challenging lesson to grasp in your trading journey, but one that holds immense value.   This is called attribution theory. Taking responsibility for your actions is the key to improving your trading skills. Pause and ask yourself - What role did I play in my financial decisions?   After all, you were the one who listened to that source, and decided to act on that trade based on the rumour. Attributing results solely to external circumstances is what is known as having an ‘external locus of control’.   It's a concept coined by psychologist Julian Rotter in 1954. A trader with an external locus of control might say, "I made a profit because the markets are currently favourable."   Instead, strive to develop an "internal locus of control" and take ownership of your actions.   Assume that all trading results are within your realm of responsibility and actively seek ways to improve your own behaviour.   This is the fastest route to enhancing your trading abilities. A trader with an internal locus of control might proudly state, "My equity curve is rising because I am a disciplined trader who faithfully follows my trading plan."

    • SELF IMPROVEMENT.   The whole self-help industry began when Dale Carnegie published How to Win Friends and Influence People in 1936. Then came other classics like Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins toward the end of the century.   Today, teaching people how to improve themselves is a business. A pure ruthless business where some people sell utter bullshit.   There are broke Instagrammers and YouTubers with literally no solid background teaching men how to be attractive to women, how to begin a start-up, how to become successful — most of these guys speaking nothing more than hollow motivational words and cliche stuff. They waste your time. Some of these people who present themselves as hugely successful also give talks and write books.   There are so many books on financial advice, self-improvement, love, etc and some people actually try to read them. They are a waste of time, mostly.   When you start reading a dozen books on finance you realize that they all say the same stuff.   You are not going to live forever in the learning phase. Don't procrastinate by reading bull-shit or the same good knowledge in 10 books. What we ought to do is choose wisely.   Yes. A good book can change your life, given you do what it asks you to do.   All the books I have named up to now are worthy of reading. Tim Ferriss, Simon Sinek, Robert Greene — these guys are worthy of reading. These guys teach what others don't. Their books are unique and actually, come from relevant and successful people.   When Richard Branson writes a book about entrepreneurship, go read it. Every line in that book is said by one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time.   When a Chinese millionaire( he claims to be) Youtuber who releases a video titled “Why reading books keeps you broke” and a year later another one “My recommendation of books for grand success” you should be wise to tell him to jump from Victoria Falls.   These self-improvement gurus sell you delusions.   They say they have those little tricks that only they know that if you use, everything in your life will be perfect. Those little tricks. We are just “making of a to-do-list before sleeping” away from becoming the next Bill Gates.   There are no little tricks.   There is no success-mantra.   Self-improvement is a trap for 99% of the people. You can't do that unless you are very, very strong.   If you are looking for easy ways, you will only keep wasting your time forgetting that your time on this planet is limited, as alive humans that is.   Also, I feel that people who claim to read like a book a day or promote it are idiots. You retain nothing. When you do read a good book, you read slow, sometimes a whole paragraph, again and again, dwelling on it, trying to internalize its knowledge. You try to understand. You think. It takes time.   It's better to read a good book 10 times than 1000 stupid ones.   So be choosy. Read from the guys who actually know something, not some wannabe ‘influencers’.   Edit: Think And Grow Rich was written as a result of a project assigned to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie(the 2nd richest man in recent history). He was asked to study the most successful people on the planet and document which characteristics made them great. He did extensive work in studying hundreds of the most successful people of that time. The result was that little book.   Nowadays some people just study Instagram algorithms and think of themselves as a Dale Carnegie or Anthony Robbins.
