How come when you win you state in Percentage and when you lose you mention only in ticks or pips??..It reminds me of my gambler's friends who when he win, he brag that he win 100% and when he loses, he said he merely lost $100.
Your gambling friends might just be heaven's gifts to trading forex. They got the guts to go into gambling full-time and live their lifes to the fullest while many are still juggling a full-time job with trading and they call themselves a trader.
Apologies if you feel offendeded but your constant tagging of profit to percentage and losses to pips or ticks really confused many. It will be much better if you could either peg to pips/ticks Or Percentage. Btw, to you, the other traders seems gamblers while you are a trader. To the Market Maker or Arbit, all traders are gamblers. There is a fine line between traders and gamblers. Those who make money will claim to be traders while those who loses money will be banished as gamblers. It would be more prudent for successful traders to tag themselve as gamblers so as to stay vigilant at all times during their trading career.
