You're right. Although, I want to make sure that I'm sticking to the plan. 10 pips at least and the allotted lot for the time frame. I only up'd the lot amount in attempt to recover. But I'll be sticking to the 0.05 until next month.

Snagged 28 pips for a 3% return. Overall for the week 3.8%. I guess we're shooting for 220 pips for the month? 182 to go

The day started out kinda rough. Trying to trade and multitask (working from home), etc, etc. I managed to salvage the day and actually recover with 10 pips. Definitely gonna have to shoot just a tad higher for my minimum due to the commission ...

Decent start to the challenge. Not good but not bad either. Pulled off four trades and ended up with literally 10 pips when it was all said and done. However, due to commission pricing I ended up with $4 for the day instead of $5. So I'll have to ...

Thanks for the heads up. To be honest, I wanted to start with $800. I do however plan on adding more to it. The goal was to create a buffer for leverage and commission costs.

@mrdfx Good attitude. It's important to recognize the mistakes we make. However, its more important how we internalize those mistakes. I think you if you stick to your original plan and only trade for the pip target; using the proper lot size in ...

Interesting offer and seemingly very generous of you to execute your services for "free". However, I have a few questions... 1. Why does the proposed strategy have to be a proven one or even profitable? Nothing is guaranteed to work 100%. ...
