How cruel! Lol to some folks here, ha, ha, ha!

Already passed my step 1 TST combine by simply trading my TAS strategies actually, now on the step 2 stage. Wish me luck kind sir.

I am with you.
First you need to be successful sim and then switch to live trading.

Sim does not teach you the psychology you need to be successful in live trading.

You are right but if you fail in sim trading you will fail in live trading for sure.
If you are successful in sim trading then its higher oods to be successful in live trading too.

You can't get with one step from failed sim trader to successful live trader.

I don't discount sim has a place, however, it also has inherent problems, such as most people trading sim are too relaxed about their rules and take trades they shouldn't because there's no financial stress in the trade. You loose $500, it doesn't matter, you make $1000 you feel good but it doesn't matter. There is a major difference between sim trading and system development also. People often get these confused. Sim trading was first made available for traders to learn the platform. If you are trading sim for more than a month, then that's pretty useless because you become complacent with sim and as soon as you go live your world will collapse, slippage, bad fills, costs, etc. Go live as soon as you can with a small account and managed risk.

People saying how good they trade and rave about their indicators yet they are on sim, is simply a joke. You will learn far more from live trading than sim. Its a fact.

If you're not trading live then you're not trading. Go play poker with matchsticks.

Oh, okay. So, you are interested in my trade journal, the one you disparagingly advised to "Play poker with match sticks"? Really? Well, I am truly honored! But what value is that to you from somebody so inept and dumb like me, a SIM non-trader?

Nah, I don't think so sir but I will share this, all trades done on auto trade mode! No emotions required.

Have a nice day!

Oooolll , so emotional, no wonder you are still on sim...lmao. You probably want to work on that average loss metric.

Is that a real plane or a simulator?
