Hi Pit-Lip,Originally Posted by ;
having appeared in my several tests(demo or real(over a year), forwards or backetests) I found out that big trendy pairs such as Gbp Jpy( for example) should be avoided unless you have 200 k or maybe 1 million lol. I found out that usd cad and usd chf are really bad (at least with my broker) because swap fees are extremely large and this eats most of the profits. aud usd ? I dont like it. Somethimes the price trends and stays stuck for weeks producing a stall in profit and also a comparatively large drawdown. Gbp usd is a very profitable one but you can blow off your account in a significant move (I almost did) if you do not add capital. Eur usd and eur gbp seem the very best for this and eur gbp is really the ideal. Aud cad appears to be pretty safe but not very profitable for the pip value and other explanations. Eur gbp includes a high pip worth so that it reaches basket profit faster and tends to range. I didnt find the drawdown indior yet but there are several ways to test (even manually but it takes time). hope that helps. If you have a true account with a lot of cash (100 k? 200k or more) in it then use the major pairs and then add eur gbp and im sure you will be fine
