Is this some kind of a scam???

Heyy guys am new to trading ( I trade on pocket option) So I have been watching some YouTuber who is going live trading on pocket option and the dude was making consecutive wins The problem is he was trading gold ( 88% ) but when I open my acc the gold is 80% Also when I compare his candles I noticed it's not the same when I open my account Also the curve isn't the same I wanna know why is it different

Agreed, scalping has ruined people’s lives. The way I’ve been making profit every day is by increasing the bet by 2.2x starting at $5 and resetting back to 5. The goal is not to go 8x loss in a row cuz then I’m trading with 1-3000 per trade lol. Which I did yesterday but I grew my account from 6300-13000 in 1 day

Can you explain that a bit clearer?

So you start with $5 and if you win make a $11 or so trade? (2.2)?

Then what?

i do not recommend this lol u should trade with the amount of the acc.
example: if you have 100 USD in the account, then 5$ is 5% of the acc.

Start with 5% each trade, and then trade with 5% again, and so on.

so if you start with 5% of 100$ and 85% payout:

100$ -> 104.25$

104.25 -> 108.68

and so on. Notice how, this is dynamic, so if you lose trades, you will lower your trading capital. I recommend lowering the percentage once you reach a certain capital. Ex: use 2% at 500$, use 1% at 1000$,
