Hi Mrbrilliant, firstly, as I don't know the ins and outs of your strategy, I'll just stymie my immediate scepticism, & assume that yours was a legitimate strategy, in which case, you'd certainly deserve a "very, very well done, sir" from this poster.
Secondly, you should find that the answers to at least some of your latter questions to him are in at least one of Highburyfx's most interesting earlier posts. Though, I must add, with all respect, if you're usually betting under £5 pp and your win rate has really meant that you've turned 2k into 10K - effectively quintupling your money - in only a matter of months, then your win rate could also be described as 'near otherworldly'. Because, no matter how you did it, you've still allegedly done something which the vast, vast, vast majority could not do - so it's little wonder, at all, that you've been... noticed. For starters - how far back into the posts here, over the years, do you need to look, before you'll find even one other who's sincerely claimed to quintuple his money in "a few months"?
It's far more usual for people to turn mountains into molehills in months, but you're telling us that you've done the absolute reverse, turning a molehill into a mountain, in only months! That's why methinks they're more than just 'interested'.
Frankly, and with the benefit of the doubt (that is, if this is a sign of success to come) you will most likely need far more than just one s/b co, to have any chance of continuing success like that!
However, I noticed you've mentioned 'binary bets', and now this one's left pondering - excuse me, but what percentage of your winning strategy, is down to your binaries? I'm considering too (and Highburyfx is welcome to set me straight on this) that it may well be harder to offset usually hedged winning clients (the so called 'A book'), when it comes to binary bets - particularly when clients are deploying certain (shall we say...) 'unwelcomed strategies' - such as, & with all credit to Highburyfx, one based upon price latency, and I can think of another questionable one, outed during the winter here - i.e. - client waits until the binary passes e.g., ~ 90% in the last few mins of trading, then hammers it - all in - which is (I must hastily add) a 'strategy' that's definitely *not* recommended - as it *will* get your a/c closed, after one too many (cough) 'successes'. There is, in other words, precedent for an account being closed - where the client gets a little 'too crafty' with how he binary bets. Your being put on manual, is at the very least, surely a sign, that all is not being taken lightly from their end. And I can speculate no more.
In fact, all we can do here - without possession of all the facts - is speculate (...while giving you the benefit of any doubt, or not) so please DYOR and read into that, what you will. Because, ATEOTD, you and only you, can assess the long term risk to your account, as you are arguably the only one here, who is privy to your methods.
Lastly, as far as the rest of us are concerned, *if* yours was truly a legitimate strategy then you've also actually, and somewhat inadvertently, done us all a great favour, in laying out where the goalposts stand as far as winning is concerned; because people often wonder "how much, and within what time-frame, do I need to win, before I get placed on manual execution?" And, *if* IG's unofficial (and I must stress 'unofficial') yet now implicitly understood response is: 'you need to effectively (1) quintuple your entire balance & (2) within a few months, before we'll consider doing that', then that is anything but a condemnation of IG Index. In fact, this poster reads an immensely commendable amount of positivity into this situation, insofar as it's very re-assuring to know, even if unofficially, that you've nothing to fear from even doubling or tripling your money, within months, when using any legitimate gambling method, with IG Index. Now that *is* excellent news - for at least the dreamers among us. ;-)
