Peter, i have a strategy of changing the guys, as ive noticed that they have a tendency to eventually loose, so i am trying to hedge in one way or another.I think no matter how good you are, no matter how great your strategy is as a trader, you are bound to eventually to loose, so i try to avoid the loop and gain at least 95% of the time. Well, lets say i found a way around. it works pretty fine for me i'd say. :clover: There is no long-term winning in these markets, not at least with that small accounts, so, i am utilizing it the best way i could. Otherwise, i'd stay with bonds or stocks.

well, they got the volume of traders with the free accounts and graphs, so the next step is eventually what to do with that volume, and was like 'oh lets make a copy signal service" too little too late,dont you think?
most important, is how profitable it will be and easy to use and if people will be going there, right? I doubt it higlhy.
i know !!! but with 'risky' attitude ( and here keep in mind i have zuluguarded them all) i managed to get into the first after a long time a 10-day-positive
i guess it is a matter to perspective...

guys, whats going on with Jankovski? he's lost his momentum or what?
last 20 trades - 16 are negative........small negative but still negative
thats fine,he has lots of positions with tight stops and lets the winners run.Thats good trading in my eyes,lets see
Kama-spot / Saved FX (the same guy) is in a class of his own.
My big concern is pumping serious money into AAAfx which has the minimum slippage of all the brokers. I just don't feel great about having a big slab of equity with AAAfx.
But, the alternative is to wear a lot of slippage using other more reputable brokers. (Compare the slippage between the two SP accounts for Dukascopy... 3.6 pips slippage on Saved FX account but zero slippage on Kama-spot account.... WTF).
With Kama-spot / Saved FX average win of around 15 pips a trade, that 3.6 pips slippage rips a big hole in my returns.

why do you have concerns about aaafx,they have all the european regs. I like kama-spot but my only concern is that he goes for 10 pips and risks 240.a lot have eventually blown up doing that,but his dd is only 500 pips,so if your settings are ok,no major worries i guess
no need to have any concerns about aaafx, i remember us talkign about safety regulations and transaction cost as far as i remember well, they are perfectly mifid and as well perfectly save and sound. :clap:
Thanks for your reply robbert but from reading your history of posts, i get the very strong feeling that you are affiliated in some way to Zulutrade and/or AAAfx. (It is my understanding that zulutrade owners also own AAAfx. And it seems that AAAfx is really only to cater for zulutrade accounts).
I have a smallish account with AAAfx ($50,000) but I just can't shake off the feeling that they are not as strong as my other main brokers. It always comes back to the saying that return OF capital is more important than return ON capital. I don't want to wake up one day and find out that all of my good returns on zulutrade have been lost along with my initial capital because the account has been frozen or that AAAfx has gone bust.
Not saying that there is anything wrong with AAAfx, but it is just a gut feel. Until I get a stronger feeling for AAAfx, I will keep my capital limited to the current amount.
robbert.
Can you explain how this copy trader is ranked 6th highest return? He has not traded for over 6 months and his equity curve is nowhere near 191% annualized return.

I cant see him as being in 6th.
Their website says they are 'regulated in Europe, registration no. 2/540/17.2.2010.' What exactly does that mean?
