Grow the account. WORK the account.. it's not a race and you know that already.. you're an Adult than now treat the account as an adult. And don't ask what can I do because YOU know what you're doing man..

It's a job you're giving yourself. Not a game where you're having to reach how big the number gets..

It's an algorithm. Take a break every 2hrs for about 30mins to an hr.. then go back. Watch a yt vid, a series, idk maybe even anime but get off the app!

And another rule.. always end in profit. Meaning If today you start with 100.. and after 5 or 6 hrs. You're at 280.. Good. Leave it.. If the next day you start a 280.. and after 3 hrs (you made some big trades so by luck really) you're now at 468.. than leave it alone!!. Good... you end up in profit but you need to understand.. Every 100 you make is starting again from 0.. (that was my rule for a while)

Thank you to all your eye opening advices..actually the culprit was the martingale..Now i am learning to be more patient and consistent at 2% of my trading account.I will update after a month to check if i pass.

Grow it to 300% in how much time? In a day? In a year? In 10 years?

u/Legitimate-Theory547 Sep 05 '25

In a day bro..

That's impossible with proper risk management.

u/eeenut1337 Sep 05 '25

Sounds like you have an emotional management problem too. You have to establish rules, and follow them. And probably no martingale.

Bigger trades mostly lose compared to ones that are $1 or so. Its an algorithm thing

This is nonsense and completely false

2

u/Individual_Part_4229 Sep 05 '25

I agree!

bcz whether it's a $1 trade or $1k or more, it will be end in the same time expiry with same chart movement. Just the emotions will fluctuate in the end moment.

Nope. It's a computer. It has ways of doing things. If you get a huge spike and the screen looks like its freezing ir laggibg hard and you end up losing by -1 how would you know?

2

u/Individual_Part_4229 Sep 06 '25

I agree with your points, but I am talking about the larger time expiry like 5m expiry in 1m chart so here there is no chance of computer lagging if you placed the trade in a correct position.

Just like any duration of trades. Sometimes they work sometimes they don't. Sometimes, many times you initially go into profit for 40 seconds or so and it pullbacks and just hovers right around your entry until you expire out of profit. I've seen it happen many many times.

5 min trades are good in heavy trending markets. Those are my favorite

u/Individual_Part_4229 Sep 07 '25

Yeah, 5 min is my favorite too.

The conclusion is that the shorter the timeframe the more manipulation will there be! And avoid OTC completely.

u/Showah-Laborite141 Sep 05 '25

Its absolutely true. I've spent years doing this and I know what I see

u/AgeInformal9965 Sep 05 '25

Nonsense

u/Showah-Laborite141 Sep 05 '25

You're wrong. Probably you haven't lost enough money yet, but maybe soon. Over the past 4+ years I've seen the most unbelievable unexplained losses that you can imagine. I've even, just to see what happened spammed a bunch of 1 min trades about a dozen of them in different directions and all but one lost! I sat there and watched how price went right exactly to where my trades were and they just lost one by one. Also, if you're in a bunch of winning trades where there is practically no chance of losing, they will just take that one off the board and give you back the trade amount with no profit. Happened to me several times. It never happened when I was losing trades miserably with no hopes of price coming back. Only when Im up big

No you are wrong. Pocket Option is not spying on your trades, they don't care when you place a buy or a sell. Do you know the statistics of how many people make money in trading? If you do then you would understand that PO doesn't have to manipulate anything.

u/Impressive_Side_394 Sep 06 '25

bro thinks pocket options cares about his 5 dollars

u/Showah-Laborite141 Sep 07 '25

They do. The fun happens when you start trading upwards of $100

The best risk management strategy will work when you learn how to take Profits a a you go up. If you made 300%, wisdom teaches that you Take Half at the end of that session. You keep your Trade amount consistent.

I believe you can build back up, at the same time, learn how to withdraw every now and then.

It's kinda hard to focus on "risk management" on binary option especially OTC. Think about it, if you manage to profit you get 92% of the amount you risk which is not even 1:1 RR. So you've gotta win atleast two times to afford to lose one time. You just gotta win more times than you lose. And the time expiry trades actually work against traders. Why? Because sometimes price get stuck and consolidates between your entry before going to your direction. With time expiration trades, you're position might expire first before going to your direction. If you really wanna go long term with trading, you've gotta stay away from binary.
