don't know who is controlling it, maybe the broker itself. yup, diff broker do gives diff rates. you can always check your broker rating on the net.

Is it true? if i set my trailing stop, after that turn off my pc and go to sleep, what will happen to the TS?

Does that defeat the purpose of TS ? So trader dun have to look at the pc all day long?

Not sure about other platform, if I am not mistaken for MT4 platform, yes, u have to leave your PC/laptop online. Of course, u don't need to keep looking at your PC for your TS to work , set it and leave it online, and u can goto sleep liao. Your MT4 platform will monitor the price and trail the stop accordingly as long as it is connected to the Server.

any different between 'Trailing Stop' and setting 'SL' & 'TP' ?

think of trailing stop as a dynamic and moving stop loss that follows with your price

This month NFP move like turtle.

If you help me to trade, what if one day you pass away? Can I still profit?

20% monthly ? good what..
thats like RM380 will become RM1mill in 3 years 8 month if you nver withdraw and let it compounded..
if I work 3 lifetime I wont probably get 1 mill with avg salary..


as for ea, Expert Advisor (Robot Forex)

one thing you must remember EA is a transfer of "someone" trading method to mechanical.. from human to computer program (the program just do what the programer tell it to do, its not Artificial Intelligent.. we are not there yet)... dont look at the EA but look a the strategy behind it or the person behind it.. like I said you dont want to let some stranger trade your account right? even thou its a robot?

I only can average it after one full year of trading, because I am a position trader where some month I might not be able to grab profits. I am holding my position for weeks and months. Anyhow, I am happy with my quarter one 2010 result(current), hope can maintain for Q2, Q3 and Q4, hehehe
