Rules of the Evaluation
– You have to post every day your trades with the charts and reasonable explanation why did you take it include even those that you had a feeling that you’ll be lucky
– Each round of Evaluation will take one week – from Monday to Friday
– You will then post a full report – screen shot from your trading station – part with trades and profit/loss that you had that week
– Winner of each week is the one that makes the most PIPS ( losses will be deducted from wins )
– It is up to you which instrument you will be trading
– Size of the trades is not important
– Number of trades is not important
– One will be the winner each given week and we would like him/her to join us in Main Forum with views, opinions and tips
– All those that didn’t win – continue in the next week
You are all eligible to get our support, help and mentoring – so do not be shy, but ASK questions even if you feel that they are not important.
For now ( and next few days) we will be using only this board – Trading Hot Line, but if we would need some more space it will be provided.
Do not mix Our Rules of the Evaluation with the Prop Rules – I am going to write them down as well and explain it in details how it works.
If you have questions and problems with the trading station, ask now – we are starting soon.

Risk Management when Trading with The Prop
As you can see from the previous post ( rules of the prop trading) , there are several aspects of risk management:
– Profit target of 10% that you have to achieve
– 4% max daily loss
– Minimum trading Days – 5
– Leverage Up to 1:50
It is going to be up to you how you gonna trade , but there are some strict rules that you will have to follow if you want to succeed .
We are going to leave the Profit target for the end – first we have to handle Maximum Daily Loss:
15.000$ – 4% = 600$
To be able to stay away from being kicked out , we must first decide what leverage to use – here are examples :
– 1:10 – 150.000$
1 PIP is 15$
You can lose 40 pips
– 1:20 – 300.000$
1 PIP is 30$
You can lose 20 pips
– 1:30 – 450.000$
1 PIP is 45$
You can lose 13 pips
I hope you got a picture….
Now what we have to achieve:
– 10% Profit – 15.000$ = 1.500$
– 1:10 – 100 pips
– 1:20 – 50 pips
– 1:30 – 33.5 pips
The only reasonable ( and doable way ) is to go with the Leverage of 1:10 – anything more will put you in a position to either avoid trading or be wiped out in few trades.
It is clear from this math that only way to do it is to trade on a very small time frames – smaller the time frame , smaller the stop loss.
Profit target will be further away in terms of time , but if you have a consistency it will be achieved.
Example:
– Time frame 3/4 min
– Profit target from 4 to 10 pips
– Stop loss 2 pips
– At 1:10 leverage you can lose 20 trades in a row and still be in the game
– You need to have Net 25 good trades ( or less if profits are bigger- that depends on the market and not your wish to make more)
– Realistically it is achievable in about 2 weeks time
These are just examples, and if you have no idea how to get there – you have all of us here to help you make it and learn how to do it.
I will show you everything that I know, but only if you ask me – I have no clue who knows what and writing here whatever I think is useful might not be the right thing.
You have to understand that our join experience in Global view team is second to none – I am not saying that there are no other good traders with lots of experience out there, but I am sure that we might be the only ones ready to share our knowledge for free.
Now let’s slowly start preparing – I am dragging our feet a bit right now as I would like you all to be ready for what might be in front of you.

Do I have to post them before they happen or after the trade is complete?

When the trade is at least taken . But best is when the tade is fully done.
