I'm somewhat new to Forex, but trade commodity futures full time, so not new to trading. I'm hoping to learn a lot from everyone, and also to contribute where I can. I've been running FAP Turbo on my first live account since 01/23 and on my second live account since 02/24. I've been active on the official FAB Turbo board as well, but updates take several hours to be posted, so wanted to get going here as well. I love the daily trade thread and hope to run ideas back with forth with everyone. Good luck!

Welcome aboard Schindawg!! Looking at your stats looks pretty damn good. Do you manual trades as well?

No, I don't manual trade. I have on the off occasion, manually closed a Fap trade early and messed with the Long Term strategy a bit, but that's it. Keep in mind, the gains on my first live account look good because much of the large gain came when I had it funded at the 50k level. Since then I've removed everything but my first 5k deposit out of the account, and transferred it into my second live account. But, yes, I'm quite happy with over a 20k combined gain in both accounts in 1½ months net of commissions.

Congrats! Indeed FAPS works best with large accounts...

Very nice, Schindawg! Do you mind me asking what broker do you use and what settings you changed for the long term strategy? Thanks for your help.
