I don't want to spoil trading 'nirvana' here, but there are some so weird things happening, it is hard to remain quiet (at least because of novices). I loked at some of trading systems with best % performance (at fx-performance.com) and ofcourse things like in 'Alice in Wonderland' happen by default. Unfortunately, nothing new indeed.
For example, some trade lasted for 2 week, went 300 pips in minus (no stop?) only to be closed with 24 pip profit
Now, try to decypher this tactic... I can't
Another, several same pair positions opened at slightly different times (as if there is one bigger position) and gain in pips ofcourse multiplied by number of those opened positions... weird, huh..
Another... highly correlated pairs opened during same time and gained pips added.
Some guys will just never learn... sorry for honesty but seems that 90/10 percentage of losers/winners will remain 'untouched' for some time
If this post inslulted some of you somehow, I apologize in advance
