There is a saying... "if you are so good in trading... why work for others?"... i believe your fren is a happy man after he quit his job.

didn't see you msg bro... PM me la.

If you prefer to work at this moment... best is find a copytrade to help you out.

what result needed to be full timer?... erm... you need to test out your strategy for the past 10 yrs... if its profitable... then u go full time.

have at least 2 years of reserve to survive without income.

i started off with 1K.... blew up many times too.

Yes,... for an institution,... but if you noticed, he did not continue trading fulltime, he continued his corporate life and later started his own business. So, this is a different path from being a fulltime trader.

After reading everyone comment, I would conclude the chance to become a full time trader is very very minimal even after you have the skill to be profitable. You still need passive income or big capital provided, which both of them need you to work first but not trading.

So not worth a try for anyone unless he can work with big institution, but Malaysia is illegal to trade forex. So.... Better go try stock haha, any stock trading institution hiring trader here?

Or alternatively try high risk trading with low starting capital.

if institution, it's legal

many FX traders in the banks

That's true. Interest, priorities, recognitions, etc....I'll ask him when I see him...

I guess can still say fx trading not for everyone

Work on skills lah most important... full time part time is but a name...

Some guy who hosts & leads a live trading room turned $20k to $200k in 2 months trading futures during London & New York sessions... he's probably in the top 1%... we just strive to double enough already...

If I were you, I will split the capital into couple of brokers exp broker A for spot forex and broker B for metal and oils.

But you were saying only trading 5-6 pairs, you can split your capital like broker A for 3 pair and broker B for other 3 pairs.

Never put your egg in one basket right, anything could be happening on broker nowadays.

Nice MACD divergence in EurChf small timeframe charts (M5-H1)

Just closed intraday shorts in EurChf (ranging from 1.0976-1.0982) here at 1.0965 (H1 EMA20).
It is quite a modest target but I can't see a clear picture of where it's heading so I prefer to exit at the earliest point.
Happy trading..!!
