Well, this is my very first article and pardon me if my posts seem quite basic. Getting the hang of things.

I'd like to start this thread off with some history about myself and my trading account.

I have been trading mostly demo accounts for the previous 6 - 8 weeks. I've got another actual account that's a micro account and have been trading on this one very regularly. This account had a 50% constant growth every month but in late October early november, I did some stupid trades (thanks to the US elections) which nearly killed my account. Anyways, to cut a very long story short, I was able to renew (split ) on this account and in the process learnt quite a few things.

My Sunbirdfx account was basically a free account. The $100 in my account was due to a competition that I had won. Now I want to make 15 Lots by end of January in order to claim my profits. Currently I trade only micro lots due to the account restrictions.

Strategy: I picked up the Sidus method and use it together with the wonderful oscillator and use the ergodian indior.

Time frames: I mostly trade the 4 Hour charts - 1 afternoon

My weak points:I can't Appear to Discover the right take profit amounts I Want to trust my indiors longer (ex: I didn't believe that EURUSD would breach 1.30 mark, my loss https://www.nigeriaforextrading.com/attachments/1528692748.png ) My goal: To achieve $200 by end of January in net profits so I can claim my profits. By March, I expect to make $600 in profits so I can buy myself a wonderful desktop https://www.nigeriaforextrading.com/attachments/1528692748.png
