Because that depends on how much you are willing to risk. And what leverage you are willing to take. Plus, I also mentioned eur/usd. As that one moves pretty much the same as USD/SEK procentage vise. But you are probably right that I should calculate on procentage instead of trying to figure out pips value etc.<br /> <br /> So take the eur/usd for example:<br /> <br /> 1 eur on August 3, 2014= 1.3428<br /> <br /> 1 eur on November 27, 2014 = 1.2476<br /> <br /> 1.3428/1.2476 = 1.07630 = 7.63% increase in value, right?<br /> <br /> So it must be $7630 on 1 lot trade.<br /> <br /> Now lets speculate that you had ice in your stomach and took advantage of the profits made. To see if the EUR would dip even more on the USD.<br /> <br /> 1 eur on August 3, 2014: 1.3428<br /> <br /> 1 eur today, on April 29, 2015: 1.1026<br /> <br /> 1.3428/1.1026 = 1.2178.<br /> <br /> 21.78% profit. So on 1 lot trade you made $21,780 in roughly 9 months time. That&#039;s not bad trading 1 lot trade. I think. But that&#039;s just me.<br /> <br /> According to a Oanda calculator. I had made 9,520 USD with the first trade. And the longer trade. $24,020.<br /> <a href="http://fxtrade.oanda.com/analysis/profit-calculator/" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">http://fxtrade.oanda.com/analysis/profit-calculator/</a><br /> <br /> Edit: If it was the USD/SEK it would be $7,802.99 for 3 months and 3 weeks. And as the USD lost quite a lot on SEK. The profit for today would be: $17,600.23 on roughly 9 months. But if you had gone out a few hours ago it had been $19,373.79.<br /> <br /> So. They don&#039;t move exactly the same as I first thought. You had made more profits trading EUR/USD. On the USD. Instead of USD/SEK on the USD. </div> <div class="bbCodeBlock-expandLink js-expandLink"><a role="button" tabindex="0">Click to expand...</a></div> </div> </blockquote><br /> The more posts you post the more everyone here realizes you know absolutely nothing about trading.<br /> Stop talking about potential gains.

That it is fact that you wish you could trade the past? Is that what you&#039;re saying? Well. I explained why I did the examples. And it&#039;s just to get people to open their eyes a bit about other options if they are losing trading daily. They could try trading more long term then. And I think I proved that as possible with my examples.<br /> <br /> But that also depends on what you see as &quot;successful&quot;.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have posted a couple times in this thread the resources I used to learn from and the strategy I use when I day trade.

And this is the about the only thread I check here. Unless we are on break from school <span class="smilie smilie--emoji" title="Big Grin :D" data-smilie="8" data-shortname=":D">😀</span> <br /> <br /> I am a homeschooling mom of 2. (Kids and homeschool the 2 biggest and only distractions from trading full time) I am 38. I found out about the forex market through an ad for a crazy expensive &quot;forex School&quot; on the richdad forums lol. The later part of 04... I was determined to figure it out for myself. <br /> <br /> I think I started this thread in 07 before I opened my real account <img src="/community/imgs/emoticons/em-smile2.png" class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Smile :)" data-shortname=":)" /> the rest is history contained in this insanely long thread [emoji14]<br /> <br /> My biggest weakness is not listening fully to my gut.

More than that you can be profitable trading and holding a position for a couple months or so. Instead of trading many trades a day. What&#039;s your problem Mr.?</div>

The reason for this is I am trading an account with money I cannot afford to lose. At first I thought I could somehow make a couple bucks here and there but it doesn&#039;t look like the case. There is just too much emotions in the way. Taking lost after lost causes a tremendous amount of mental fatigue on me. Or maybe I just need a break....</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have already lost all my money. I rebuilt my account to the original amount and now I am playing with house money in my head anyway. I can not afford to lose this amount of money in these trades, if it were my checking account I&#039;d be puking. But it&#039;s house money so I sleep well even when 1/2 my account is in the crapper lol. Because I can still pay my bills if my account goes boom. NEVER TRADE WITH MONEY YOU CAN NOT AFFORD TO LOSE.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Oh wow. I didnt see the nastiness. When I started this thread I was not yet trading. There is not a list of requirements to post here. Play nice guys... I did get the same feel from your posts though. You think you could make all that money. Wonderful. I think I can do a lot of things. I know how to put in an engine. My husbands a mechanic. I even demoed it... Guess what... I cant actually install an engine. Knowing how to do something and being able to actually do it are 2 completely different things... Those who can do those who can not talk....</div>

It was more of an example in my imagination of what was/is possible. To get people to open their eyes, that you can actually trade in other ways than &quot;day trading&quot;. Or trading daily. I know it&#039;s unconventional thinking. And that&#039;s the point. Because what all the systems preaches and all that is &quot;day trading&quot;. Trading every day, sometimes with sveral trades a day. While infact you can sort of trade like Warren Buffett in the Forex market too. My goal was to give value. Not make people uneasy in some kind of way.<br /> <br /> Hope that clears it up a bit.<br /> <br /> <blockquote data-attributes="member: 387" data-quote="CarrieW" data-source="post: 456388" class="bbCodeBlock bbCodeBlock--expandable bbCodeBlock--quote js-expandWatch"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-title"> <a href="/community/goto/post?id=456388" class="bbCodeBlock-sourceJump" rel="nofollow" data-xf-click="attribution" data-content-selector="#post-456388">CarrieW said:</a> </div> <div class="bbCodeBlock-content"> <div class="bbCodeBlock-expandContent js-expandContent "> Those who can do those who can not talk.... </div> <div class="bbCodeBlock-expandLink js-expandLink"><a role="button" tabindex="0">Click to expand...</a></div> </div> </blockquote>For the most part. It&#039;s like that. But that doesn&#039;t mean it&#039;s always true. There has been some pretty good predictions on sports events in the past. By expert commentators who probably never laid any money on the games. But I agree that for the most part. That&#039;s true.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">You are missing the entire point. If they are on tv talking they are a side show. The real deal is the game not the outsiders looking in. You seem to enjoy that view...</div>
