Hit my goal and more, well kind off.
Well with all the connection issues turmoil, I was still able to reach my goal of $4,000 / week ($1,000/day x 4 trading days). In fact the sad thing is I actually surpased it by 6,000, That’s right, got on a roll and had ~$16,800 but then I got sloppy and lost about $6,000 when the market moved against my trades. So even though I reached my goal, I learned some good lessons, (I was trying bigger lot sizes and didn’t do well with the direction of movement. Also, lot sizes of 4 seemed to be much more delayed which caused alot of mis-quotes, hence some profits were smaller or losses by the time I actually got it to go thru. Much better response time using size 2, but even that size is very risky. Looking back, I was trading when I shouldn’t of, the EUR/USD was too hard to predict the trends at night.
I also kept receiving an error message “Trade Context is Busy” which is as good as no connection. If anyone knows what this means. FxPro just told me to try another server which was useless.
FxPro finally credit my initial deposit $2,500 back to my initial Credit Card. So now I’m strictly trading on Profit ~$8,200 (~8,000 these past 2 weeks). Of course I’m still waiting on my credit card company to confirm that they received the funds. Took about 3 days and had to email them a scanned copy of my CC with most of the numbers removed.

Hello!! Thanks for sharing your results
I would like to know what EA are you using in your live account. are you using FAP turbo or FAP? do you trade manually as well?
Thanks
Hi Roderick,
I’m using FapTurbo EA and Manually trading. Most of my trades have been with manual trades, probably 98%.
