    I would laugh at you 98vert6spd, but we have all been there before

    nobody can figure out why you'd never find this type of luck on a real money account.

    Do not know what it means but it seems impressive, consider saving it in an excel spreadsheet zipping it up.

    You made 65% profit in three, four days, whereas most of us are pleased with 5% a day.
    Now you ask us for advice?
    Not truly happy? Of course, you expected it...!!

    I would not know what to inform you....

    I read about everyone saying they are delighted with 5 percent per month
    I can make 5 percent by next hour

    am carrying on too much risk?
    This appears to be too good to be true to me.

    I attached a cleaned up spreadsheet

    perhaps someone knowledgable could look at it?

    I dont want to be a greenhorn and continue doing something dumb.

    I simply got into this about a week ago. I've a degree, but ive never done. I opened several DEMO acccts before I managed to adopt a egy that worked for me. I cant seem to make any money except in the EUR/USD

    After looking at your spreadsheet, it appears that your using lots trades then closing very quickly after a couple of pips.

    I can not tell you that is the right or wrong thing to do - this judgement is completly your personal. I could say that large lots produce risk. I've a friend who trades the same way and has good luck doing it.

    Many traders will inform you 3-5% of your account equity - but in reality, very few actually use that percentage. Large institutional trader utilize minimal equity for obvious reasons, but that mindset whilst is rarely observed.

    What I can recommend is before going live, experimentation with less lot dimensions and possiblely less leverage.

    The true measure of a trader is not how much you make, but how long you continue to create it.

    If later experimentation with less lots/leverage you feel that's more practical, then exercise it.

    I, like your self, took my demo accounts very seriously and was really emotional. After nearly a year of demoing my transition trading has been easy and effortless I frequently wonder why I stressed.

    I don't know how your entering or exiting, but you appear to have a good win/loss percentage.

    Good job!
