Beat The Broker Compo!

back up to 4th now. The mid day slouch is starting to take effect

I tell ya, re reading that classic trading book the hare and the tortoise over the weekend paid dividends. You just have to find the 'secret messages' that are present throughout the book.

phooey! just goes to show exactly why careful risk management is the key to survival and longevity in trading. Get your first couple of trades wrong with too much leverage and its a looong way back!

Hi arb, it is fun though, I may throw in the towel, hit reset and start again maybe

 

[trader_dante]

Now it's really getting interesting...first position up over £65,000 and I bet there are a fair few people that are long Cable...or Oil or GBP/YEN...fully maxed out...and when they close...it's going to be a nice showdown in a throw your cards on the table kinda way...

I'm down to £8k.
Will try again tomorrow. Feels liberating to be able to risk so much at one go without worry .

[Lightning McQueen]

[trader_dante]

league table has the top 60 now

They seem to keep alternating between the top 20 and the top 60.

 

[Directional]

yeah, I emailled in using the form and suggested they expand the "leaderboard". looks like they did!

i'm down to £16k after completely fudging my first few entries!

 

[arabianights]

Shame I had to get out of oil to give me margin for my reckless £200/pt dow long though
