General Share Your Trading Life – Broker, Strategy, Assets & Experience

[shanmugapradeep]

Hello,

I made this thread out of curiosity about what people are doing in their trading life — what broker they use, what kind of strategy they work with, what currency pairs/assets they trade, whether they are full-time or part-time traders, their main profession, experience in trading, etc. Share if you’d like to talk about your trading life.

Here’s mine:

Broker: ICMarkets and HFM
Strategy: News Trading, Scalping, and Martingale
Assets: Mostly EURUSD, GBPUSD, and XAUUSD
Trading Profession: Part-Time
Main Profession: PHP Web Developer and Designer (Freelancer)
Experience: 3+ Years

HFM (raw) + Tradingview for charting; mostly EURUSD, GBPUSD, XAUUSD. Strategy is H4–D1 swing/position—market structure, session levels, ATR-based risk; on news I wait for the post-volatility retest. 3+ years in, consistency came when I tracked monthly R-multiple instead of win rate
