Hi episteme,
I wonder how do you cope with the pressure of everyone being aware of your open positions?
I did something similar on a much smaller scale, a while back to prove, that you can trade effectively with a 100 pound bonus offer, However I did not publish my trades and account until such time as I had completed the task.
I can't help but think, that if you had not published before hand and made you trades public you would no doubt achieve your aim.
None the less I greatly admire your spirit and wish you success!
To be honest it doesn't bother me at all - i've not got anything to prove. I'm sure there is a few willing me to fail, and If I blow up then I expect them to come out of the woodwork.
Anyway I won't care as I'm going to take the profit I banked and buy a TAG or something on the weekend I think - so they can critise if they want but I will be wearing the reply on my wrist.
It feels a bit funny to think people may be following my trades, and I do wonder if anyone isactually trading them as calls? Is anyone ?

Course there will be people wanting him to fail. The reason is they subscribe to risking x%/trade and "cutting their losses and running their winners" and the "never average" conventional mentality to trading. Whilst there are some who can make it work, there are many trying the conventional methods telling themselves it's the right way to trade and not succeeding. Episteme is sticking a finger up to the conventional approach of trading and succeeding, which is going to make those who take the conventional approach re-consider whether they're going down the right path. If he fails this justifies their methods they pursue, but the longer he continues the more irritating it becomes to them.
For what it's worth I put myself in the unconventional camp. Gl, I love what you're doing
Can I just say that on the H4 chart this is a really good plave to begin selling EUDGBP, so with a bit of luck...
am wondering if I should put in a 50% stop loss rule - that way one bad trade could never kill the account. I never did mean to go all in on every trade - which is what I seem to be doing now.
