Make una no dey stress this matter. All forex brokers for retail traders make money when traders lose.
If you want to trade serious and as a pro.. You need lots of money where you will trade with 1:1 leverage. Minimum deposit go b like $25,000.. Una retailers get wahala. Some folks just use their hand to take risk and started retail trading to bet against our trades since they are very sure 95% will end up losing.
Make una stop stressing with all this a book b book.. If broker don pay you. And their platform Seamless. He don do.
You can dm me when you have $100,000 to deposit and I will tell you a real forex broker you can trade with. Where all these bullshit do not exist. Poor man get wahala I dey tell you. Na them no get money, na them go still dey look for first class services.
Poor man and wahala be like 5&6 LoL! πππ |

I think one or two guys here have explained it before but I will try to also break it down details by details before the end on today so the confusion can go to sleep once and for all. See the two senerios that shows how an account size with $100,000 starting balance works for; (1) balance base (2) equity base Where the daily drawdown is 5%. Note that the starting balance can be any amount. For this explanation, we have chosen to use $100,000 as our starting balance. (A) BALANCE BASE: Day1; for your $100,000 account, your daily dd limit would be $95,000. Meaning, for that day; i) if you are in a loss trade and your $100,000 account gets to $95,000 and below then you have hit your 5% daily DD limit. ii) if you are in a profit trade and your hit $105,000 and above you have expanded you daily DD limit. You now have more money to play with for that day (Note this is not so in equity base). for you to hit daily DD would only be when you loss all your profits for that day and the account continues to go down until it reaches $95,000. iii) if at the end of the day1, you ended in profit. Let's say $107,000 then for day2 your daily DD limit would be $101,650. (How? See how. 5% of $107,000 is $5,350. So 107,000 - 5,350 = $101,650). iv) this calculation will continue at the end of everyday just as the market rolls over into a new day taking the account/equity balance (whichever is higher when the market rolls over) in consideration. (B) EQUITY BASE : Now everything above is same in equity base except number (ii) above. In equity base, you account is being trailed with the 5% daily DD on every positive price movement above the $100,000 starting balance. Example Day1; for your $100,000 account, your daily dd limit would be $95,000. Meaning, for that day; a) you enter a trade and price movement made your equity $105,000. if price retraces back to $100,000 that same day then you have hit daily DD limit. b) you enter a trade and price movement made your equity 106,000. If price retraces to $101,000 that same day then you have hit daily DD limit. You don't have more money to play with as balance base provides c) you enter a trade and price movement made your equity $103,000. If price retraces to $98,000 (not even $95,000) that same day then you have hit daily DD limit. d) to survive in this kind of market you have no choice than to use a more reduced lotsize that can contain those price retracements to avoid hitting daily DD. 6 Likes |

Closed August with 0.49% profit. Made some avoidable mistakes because I got lost in IOF. Registered for September comp and I'm looking forward to it, also remember to journal your trades. The goal is keeping the account. abham: August fundednext comp:
1.56% profit.
This week is not giving for me. My phone crashed on Sunday last week and I felt lost .Had an avoidable loss and took the opposite side of the trade on NQ after doing analysis on htf.
I also added another position from Thursday and mistakenly closed it before it hit tp because I don't know how to take partials on pc yet.
I am learning to be patient with my setups to fully form.
The goal is keeping the account.

Re: Forex Trade Alerts: Season 23 by abham: 6:02pm On Sep 02, 2023 |
The week closed bullish for AU and HOW formed on Wednesday. With nfp setting the tone for a bearish month where seasonality is bearish, I anticipate price to seek lower objectives. I would like to see price take out Wednesday's high before going lower but if it does not happen, we go with the flow. abham: On AU, Price has not gotten to lower objective. I am looking forward to next week completing the cycle.
If wishes were horses, traders would ride. I would like to see HOW form on Mon/Tue and maybe the weekly range would be completed with NFP.
I may be wrong but lets see what the markets have for this week.

Bro,sorry ur explained the balance base perfectly well, but the equity base is quit different from my own experience. I think for d balance base its d amount of money left in ur balance after u've closed a trade of which I think only FTMO does that even tho other propfirm say dey do, as other propfirm sends u breaching email once ur Losing more Dan 5% in ur trade even when u've not closed d trade yet. While for d equity base, it's d amount of money u have on ur equity instead of balance that d 5% is substracted from. Where I disagree with u is where u said if u make extra +5% that very day and maybe placed another trade and lost only d extra 5% u made dat same day dat u've breached d rule. Any amount u made in profit dat day is added to ur dd u would have to lose both ur profit for dat day and also d 5% for dat day before breaching d account. In mff account analyzer u can see ur daily draw down limit calculated for u already every morning before u start trading, as it's been recalculated at d end of every day.
