It's very possible, but it does depend how 'zoomed' the line is. I have losing days fairly often. This is mine (16 months, since I started how I trade now). I'm completely manual.

The dips are mostly psychological problems (bloody round numbers :roll: ), which don't trouble a bot.

Solid upward progress. Well done.

While we're posting PnL, here's my long term by month since I started this last year, big zig zag at end was my foray into high variance value betting!
Got to look to the positive though i'm only -£500 down in over a year, that's not all bad an amount..., although there's a bit of luck in not being worse!

Thanks, you too!

I find those races you listed can be good fun in-play, but less so pre-off...

Don't worry goat, your chart will double bottom like mine did :lol:

Finally got some automations still generating profit past 3000 markets. Usually they are dying by the time I reach 1000. Expect them to both crash and burn now I've posted this. :lol:

Gazuty's guidance thread is a must read for newbies, helped me out bigtime.

I have no problems with the pro's posting P&L in fact I like seeing them. I am using minimum stakes and my last 500 trades has netted me a profit of $402, so an hourly rate of about $0.50 :D

gazuty posts losses but his graph is straight. That is why I do not believe you, I think you are fake.

Maybe manual trader like all great traders can win but I think auto is fake. Yes I make losses so far. You send me to a long blog I don't have time to read, why don't you post strategy. You can't post strategy you are fake.

Hi tbe

I stongly suggest that you stop digging in your rabbit hole and come out into the sunlight. There are other threads on here that go on for hundreds, perhaps thousands of posts as to whether or not anybody makes a profit or it is all just luck - don't become one of those people. I know you don't have time to read (or perhaps do any other research) but this also means it is quite likely you will be stuck in loss for a long time. Perhaps ask yourself whether any of your posts help you towards sucess? If you can't read my guidance take 6 minutes and 42 seconds to watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktlTxC4QG8g

The strategy - again you haven't done the research, but any detailed published strategy tends to make the market efficient around that particular strategy and hence the value previously available is no longer available. It's all already discussed in this forum, by people I respect.

Oh and finally, I'm not trying to convince you about my graph and that's it from me with you because I really don't want this to become one of those never ending threads. You can have the last word (if you can muster up the energy - assuming you are trading away on Sunday afternoon).

Nice work
Aus$ so about £26k over 6months, about £1k a week, awesome

All part of my philosophy and fits with my psychology, flip a coin thousands of time in many markets, rather than a few times here or there. Look for long term trends or expectations as to what might happen, fine tune, analyse, fine tune, analyse.

I understand you've given it a good shake Mr Goat and so I suspect you are not far away. And if you keep the losses small, then there is the mental exercise and the comraderie.

Nice work, you must have doubted the algo on the hounds there for a while but good longer term reversion.

Watch out, our friend will be on to you.

:) :) :)

Very good. Its part amusement with our friend, it's like a martingale thread. Hopefully it all dies down soon. Although I really don't think I'm going to convince him.

Early start for you Kai or are you just getting in after a big Satuday night. Hope you are keeping well and the markets are being good to you.

Frustration is a real thing but lashing out will not win you any friends.

I was frustrated myself 24 hours ago after chainsawing a hard earned cricket green that should have been at least £500 but I've struck back
