Hi IcedFrosty, nice job but I can't find the indicators that you mention in the MT5 marketplace. Thanks

I have not published any of the indicators/EA to the MT5 marketplace. When I get a moment I will publish to the Futures.io MT5 section...unaware of interest level. DM me if you would like them today.

Not exactly...commissions are included in all PnL stats...

How can this be if she made 1.18 average tick per contract?

1.18 average tick per contract is the PnL over and above 2 ticks of commission ($0.44 per side which is AMP Futures rate)

Ok...we are going to change this up a bit...my mother doesn't want to be the only one participating in the challenge...she has asked me to join her in the challenge!!?!?!!

Yikes...feels like a lose if I win and lose if I don't win kind of situation. Anyhow, who can say "no" to their mom? So, I am going to join the challenge...both of us will start with a $10,000 SIM account, both on MetaTrader 5(MT5), using any indicators we like. The goal will be to make an average of roughly 30% compounding daily over 20 days to reach the 1 million dollar challenge target. I hope you enjoy.

Who will be first to complete the SIM Millionaire in 20 days? Pro vs Retail...the challenge is on!!!

Was already an interesting thread, now it's double the fun. Probably more than double with the competition aspect. Good luck!

Yes...I stopped the first challenge in order to join the challenge myself. The final stats after Day 9 were as follows...yes...she was up over 800%...



I am currently working on another update to the ZombiePack2 that will simplify installation (one zip for all tools) and help those learning how we trade...specifically measuring "energy". The update of the Zombie2SetupAlerts will soon show "setup waves" to measure Energy... just like how a surfer knows when to get ready to take the next wave...


Still working out the details...but would like to share the mental model that we use for trading...early draft sneak peek below...
