Trade Results Transparency

Unread post by bambino45 »

I wondered if any of the practicing AIMSters were logging their trades publicly via myfxbook or mt4i ?. The technology is available now to be 100% transparent in your MT4 trading and there is no reason why anyone in the public domain promoting a system cannot provide such unambiguous transparency.

No-one in this day and age should be buying a system without seeing the proof of it's execution.

I understand and acknowledge there is far more to executing a profitable trading system than just reading the manual and "having a go" but from my reading on this forum there are plenty of people who are purporting to be executing this system day in and day out and hittitng their targets.

Whilst there is clearly great visualisations on this website to show succesful trades nothing can match a publically available account showing the ongoing results with total transparency. I have always advocated 100% transparency in trading.

I also think it would be incredibly useful for all the people just starting out to breed confidence in seeing how others are proving their profits without it being just hearsay on a forum.
It is also a great way to journal your trades automatically. I have used myfxbook in the past and found it to be very professional and easy to set up.

I look forward to hearing if the senior AIMS practitioners are interested in hooking up to these mediums and leading by example.

Cheers

Hi

I use MT4i, user name mkaims, I have not solely traded AIMS on this account but if you filter using EURUSD and since September 2012 I think it is nearly all AIMS trades.

Agree with you on the transparency

Yes Den! (rofl)

I'll do something like this in the future. But the price might go really high! I have plan for exactly such a thing on myfxbook. But I'll do that when account is over +100K. My 5 year plan states. Once account hits 100K - I'll start managing a fund. For that I'll need myfxbook or just my mt4 statements.

ps: Hopefully by Aug i should hit 100K.

Thanks as ever Immy for your couteous and informative replies. I appreciate you always taking the time to respond.

Once I establish an account solely for AIMS trades I will hook it up to myfxbook and share the link.

Hi Immy,
I have been on a trading break for quite a while. Children, travelling and emigrating and enjoying the fruits of my labour again. I am really keen to get back on the horse again now I am settled in my new place in Australia. I am a Brummie too so I hope it's not raining as much as when I left, mate !

I was going through some of my old posts and came across this one regarding myfxbook and transparency. I wondered if you had hit your target as you had outlined and if this was something that ever took off.

Cheers :-bd

The rain has been not so friendly to us here. Its been the wettest winter preceded by a wettest summer and now it seems we are having plenty of rain again this summer. I hit a half century last saturday the team was at 196 for 1 in just 30 overs and we had to abandon the match. It was really annoying. We could have hit 300 that day... :-q ~x(

haha

I know that feeling. Washout ! Always when something good happens the weather is always there to put you back in your place ! I'm amazed any cricket ever gets played in England anymore. Any chance you can see if my house is still there ? I fear it may well have been washed away !!

Hi Immy,
It's going back a bit but did you hit your Aug 2013 target on time. If not I'm sure you hit it eventually. The point with targets is to keep them flexible. As long as you hit them !

I wondered if you had then developed the managed fund .. or started working in The City ! Nice staff job with a free multi-coloured jacket. Yeah , that'd suit you, right ! :))
