FSS and the Trading Signals on Daily FX+ are both good resources. If you are looking for a fully automated approach, then FSS is the way to go.

If you would like discretion over which signals you would like to take, then the Trading Signals might be a better fit for you.

With a live FSS account, you are able to manually enter orders. If you would like to withdraw funds, you can access a withdrawal form at www.myfxcm.com.

If you would like to deposit funds into your FSS account, this can be done at the following link:

Thank you for your suggestions. We will certainly consider your ideas.

The equity curve is based upon the cumulative total. So, two months into it, your trades will be based upon your equity at that point.

What happened to pipsniper? It's gone from the list and the 3 month history. Even though it's still there in the 12 month history. The person on support chat just told me the system is no longer available....

OK now he says it's still there.... one of the missing pipsniper currency pairs just reappeared, I guess it's just some technical difficulties.

Hello everyone,

Some of the systems that i use to look and follow, have now a smaller time frame in their performance in the FSS web page.

For example the AUDCAD mover, had a performance test since 2006 and only has since 2007.

I think that all of us, FXCM and Clients, only would gain in having a long performance results of the systems that FSS suports.

Not only in FSS, but also in the Daily Signals, a longer performance data could improve your client trading decisions.

I understand the 10:1 ratio, but how do I interpret the leverage indicated in my portfolio (demo acct)?

It produces numbers (depending on how many systems I select) of, for example 1:91.21 or 1:34.63.

Feel free to answer this as if I'm an idiot!


Thanks.

hi jrtaylor,

In my point of view, the ratios represent the level of leverage that you are going to be exposed in your account.

For example: Some systems trade 3, 4 and 5 positions of Lot. So if you choose that systems, in the extreme (comparing with your balance), if your system opens all the positions you will have 1:3, 1:4 and 1:5 of a possible leverage in your future trading (for a 10K account).

Hope this helps.

Hi Henriquesnmp,

As of now, we have back-tested results for the past 12 months. We are looking into increasing the available back-tested data.

Please email the system provider to see if they can give you more back-tested data on their system. You can find their contact information at the following link:

I have been playing around with the demo account for a while and have a question regarding the equity curve. I have been using "Fixed Fractional" and tested several signals with it.

The question; shoudln't fixed fractional give me a result which is proportinal to the start balance? For me it behaves a bit weird..

An example (same signal and same fixed fractional settings):
Start balance 10.000, end balance 44.000
Start balance 20.000, end balance 55.000
Start balance 100.000, end balance 135.000

It seems like the start balance have no impact on the tested result..

Please give me a hint

Hi Fredrichc,

As the start balance increases in size, there is more precise risk management, so the account doesn't fluctate as much in percentage terms.

With a starting balance of $10,000, the risk management is less precise and the effective leverage is higher. The lot size is equal to the starting balance versus being only a fraction of it.

Hi, thank you for the input. I realise that it will be less precise as there is a minimum lot size involved, but for what I can see, the result does not change "money wise" when I enter a larger amount as start capital. If you look at the example you will see that the net win is 35.000 regardless of the start capital.

thanks henriquesnmp!
