I have been trading for a living for over a year now and am wondering if there are some people interested in learning how to trade. I have a very profitable strategy that implements sound fundamentals and good risk to reward ratio and am thinking about writing a book on the system. I'd probably charge around $500 for the strategy and would provide support as well. If there is enough interest I'd open a thread in for sale section. Thanks.

Great man - what platform do you use trading?
 
Would the training be for complete beginners or for already advanced people?
 
emmm, can you explain a little more? like how much would you need to invest and how much is it posslible to make or lose (the average profit or loss you have experienced).
 
Oanda to take trades on. MT4 to display my indicator and tools.

Both are welcome.

You can start as low as a few hundred bucks, however $1,000 or more is recommended. Average profit and loss largely depend on your understanding of the system. Even though it is simple to understand since my indicators make it easy for you, it still has to be executed properly. It also depends on what session you are trading (US, Europe, Asian).

I would love to know a lot more about this. Played with it years ago and nothing is safe but there are different methods.
 
I don't know what you mean by safe, however just like any business there is risk and our goal is to minimize it. Also, there are costs of doing business(losses), but that is just a part of Forex or any business for that matter. Anyone that tells you that there's a strategy/method that can guarantee a hit rate of 100% or even close to it, is lying horribly. It is critical to have a system with a significant edge, proper money management and solid risk to reward ratio. That is the only way to minimize risk and be profitable.

I've been willing to learn about it for quite a while now, but never really found anybody reputable enough to trust on teaching me the inside outs of forex. I'll be more than willing to give it a shot if the opportunity presents itself in some appealing way. Feel free to let me know. Regards.
 
A lot more than I've ever made doing IM. I am trading 10 standard lots per trade meaning that each PIP is equal to $100. Today I only entered 1 trade, I've risked 30 pips to make 150 pips. The trade went in my favor and have made $15,000 with 1 trade. Of course not every trade or day is profitable, however with good R:R my strategy is very profitable overall.

Size of your lots depend on your account size, broker leverage and your money management. 1 PIP can equal to 10 cents, $1, $10, $100, etc.

I've started trading mini lots over a year ago and have been increasing my lot size ever since. I think that I've reached my comfort level (10 lots per trade) for now and won't be increasing it any time soon. I know of a person that trades 50 lots per trade on a regular basis. That is $500 a PIP! You need to have a huge account and most importantly balls of steel to trade that size.




How much are you earning per year with forex?

I am just used to it since I've been doing it that way for quite some time. I just use Oanda to fire off trades and to manage them. Nothing wrong with using it through MT4, even though I've never tried trading live on MT4.

It varies from month to month. Pips per month doesn't really paint the picture properly. Most of the commercial systems and EA's appear to be making 1000s of pips per month, but what they don't show is the drawdown their account goes through every month. Only amateurs trade that way since in the long run they will lose a lot more money than they will make and they will most likely blow up a couple of accounts along the way.

Care to share how many pips you gain per month?
