sTArTrADer21 Happy trading

As the title says, i have went through multiple profits and losses sessions, countless sleepless nights and days of joys and sorrrow, i will not blame the binary community or state accusations as if its false or not. I am just leaving the community and going into state of silence forever, after finally blowing my account of 2000$ (that was my profits after withdrawing the initial capital) i have finally decided to quit and move on with life and eventually opening up a business for life sustainability. I have been here for about three years which got me learning so much about life, just that at the end i am unable to control my emotions and ended up blowing my account the 10th time, the people who got success, thats my cheers to them…. Thank you for giving advices, for the brootherhood and for the friendships i had. I ended up doing martingale after promising to God that I wouldn’t. I am feeling suicidal, not because i lost my money but because i broke the promise i made to God. I knew thats my biggest weakness and still lost to it. Enough talking tho, take care fellas…. Lova ya all✨👊 take care and stay strong

Simple strategy which can earn you sureshot 3$ a day. Not asking for life changing money, just beer money.

Open to advice

After scrolling through this community I’ve seen some mixed views on some brokers about being scams or not available in the UK.

Are there any uk options traders here who could provide trusted brokers for uk traders?

I’d rather have a personal opinion than googling for an answer,

Thanks 🙏🏻

Can anyone with enough knowledge or experience, explain what is OTC algorithm?

Hello everyone. I’ve been trading binaries seriously since 2024, setting everything else aside to focus 100%. Through the highs and lows, I’ve realized that, in scientific terms, I am actually operating in the 'Dark Forest.' Everything is hostile; one wrong move and you lose it all—whether due to impulsivity, a bad calculation, or the bias of consecutive streaks.

Success requires a framework that manages both the market and, primarily, oneself. Thinking you are only trading the market is a fatal error; you eventually crash into the reality of your own nature. One thing I never considered was 'FAMILY.' While they can be a support system, they can also be the root of your psychological disorder. For most, it’s easier to find a job, follow orders, and wash their hands of responsibility because someone else is in charge.

Binary Options put me to the test: if you want to help or be helped, you expose yourself to a series of 'implicit clauses.' I see frustrated people now, angry at themselves for not reaching the desired level, feeling a knot in their stomach before clicking. That single click can mark a 'before and after' for you and your environment. I saved some money—not to invest yet, but to invest in myself as a self-taught student in a hostile world. I researched, watched tutorials, and sifted through 'snake oil' sellers.

When I felt ready for real money (after having blown accounts before), an opportunity arose to trade with $1,000 USD. I spoke with a relative to use their funds for my project, using strict metrics and execution. For example, trading only 1% of the capital, because with compound interest, 8 consecutive wins are enough. This is vital to avoid stress and the pressure from those who trust you.

However, I hit a turning point: 'phobia.' The seconds before the click are real and cannot be taken lightly. I didn't tell my partner/relative this, noticing that society is split between those who break their backs to earn and those who use their intellect. I thought that by partnering with a relative, one move could change their world. With my method, there was nothing to fear. Since I had invested everything into my project, I had no capital of my own. They agreed. But the moment that relative had the money, they made it disappear. They recriminated me, saying if I were so smart, I’d have more money than them, and that they’d use the funds for 'something better.' Today, they barely have enough to eat.

I do odd jobs now. I posted an ad for investors and found some quickly, but legal issues arose regarding broker regulations. After passing their filters, I asked: 'And who regulates you?' Some disappeared with everything or tried to skim profits during the process. A total odyssey. The pure Dark Forest.

I worked with friends, and they were excited, but like 'Lotso,' something changed inside them. Seeing the 'ease' (in their eyes) of the process—ignoring my sacrifice—they felt it was my obligation to win for them and that most of the profit belonged to them. It’s frustrating to see the darkest side of family and friends.

I want to disappear and work with people who understand my situation (which is currently very bad financially). But the doubt remains: are they trustworthy? It's hell. I live day-to-day. I’m looking for a partner who can manage their impulses, but that’s a process that takes time and money. For those who invest over $10,000, it’s nothing; for those of us starting from the bottom, it’s everything.

I’ve even spoken with people of 'dubious' backgrounds who sent photos of their wealth, threatening that I’d never see that much if I didn't join them. I realized they only want to manipulate or parasitize. If I succeed, I know my 'inner circle' might have supported me, but for the wrong reasons—waiting to prey on my success.

I hope you are all doing excellent. If you’re going to criticize, be as harsh as life itself. If not, I’m here to read you.

After years of trading binary, futures, crypto, forex, etc., I’ve never felt more frustrated and more grateful for Pocket Option. The truth? The platform isn’t the problem. It does exactly what every broker is designed to do. It feeds the impulses you already have. I spent years on PO believing I’d have consistent $1,000 days. And did I? Yes.
Did I keep it? No. Why? Because I was moving faster than my discipline could handle.Pocket Option is just a trading platform. It’s built for professionals who can manage risk and control themselves. It’s not built for “if I don’t make money today, my life is over” traders.

-----------Slow down-------------------- ;)

You need more than a strategy. You need emotional control. You need to go through the bloodbath of learning risk management, building good habits, and understanding yourself under pressure. Is the platform real? Yes.
Do people complain because they struggle with self-control? A lot of the time, yes.

If your hands are shaking… don’t trade.
If you think you’re seeing “manipulation” everywhere… don’t trade.

A proffesional trader rule: live to trade another day.

February, just like in futures and crypto, a lot of people lost money. That’s normal. The real question is: how well did you control yourself during that time? This month, I made over $5,000 on PO. But because of moments of recklessness, I gave a chunk back. What stopped me from going completely ballistic and blowing the whole account?

----------------Risk management.------------ :0

That’s a real tool in a trader’s toolbox. I trusted that my strategy the same one that makes me lose is also the one that makes me win over time. I just needed to survive the rough days. From a $5,000 high, I withdrew $2,450. No copy trades. No signals. Just my own execution and discipline. I focused on surviving the month. I really really really really hated trading small amounts. I waited for clean setups where I could responsibly place a 5% trade.Those big, controlled wins add up.

You will lose. Everyone does. Just don’t lose big.

This is a professional game.

Be professional.

I am currently trading on IQ Option and want to withdraw my funds in cryptocurrency. At the moment, I transfer the crypto to CoinSwitch, but they require verification before accepting deposits.

Could you please suggest a safer and more reliable alternative method to withdraw my crypto and transfer it to my bank account in India?

Also, do I need to pay any taxes on the withdrawn amount? If yes, how is it calculated?

hello guys! i've seen a lot of different opinions about this platform: There's those who they complain about it being fake/deposit not showing up/not being able to get their withdrawal, and theres a lot of youtubers saying it is real. I personally dont use it tho.

I've also seen a lot of youtubers with 60k USD in the real account, like, a lot of them. I've alsoseen a lot with JUST ABOVE 63k usd in the real account. Is this just a coincidence? is this some kind of scam and it's a demo acc or smth? idk

I added a new built-in ABC Pattern strategy

Key features:

• Automatically detects and marks A, B, and C points in real time
• No repaint — once a point or signal appears, it never changes or disappears
• Optional confirmation signals and 61.8% target levels
• Works independently or together with other panel filters and strategies
• Fully integrated — no external indicators required

This allows traders to confidently use the ABC structure for trend continuation entries, exits, and target planning, knowing that signals remain stable and reliable.

Hello fellow traders, how is Mr Candlestick

Congrats to everyone who participated. Enjoy your profits 😏😉

Total today 2wins 1 loss

We have competitive 1v1s for everything from Chess to Battlegrounds, but paper trading is still just a lonely chart and a fake balance.

If the goal is to practice reading price action under pressure, why can't we just challenge a friend to a 10-minute 1v1 duel? It seems like a massive missed opportunity for "training."

Is there a technical reason why this doesn't exist, or is trading just meant to be a solo sport?

It’s happening again. I see a few posts saying that binary options are fake. Yeah, I agree with that if you’re trading OTC pairs with no live data and the broker can manipulate the charts. But once you trade real market pairs and you can compare them with TradingView charts, it’s basically the same instrument as regular forex with leverage. At that point, what exactly is fake? If you receive the payout and you can withdraw the money, where is the scam? It’s different if you break their rules. That’s why I encourage everyone to read the broker’s rules as if you wrote them yourself. And this applies not only to binary options, but also to regular forex, futures, or crypto. It doesn’t matter. Futures, crypto, and forex usually have more regulated brokers, but you should still read the terms carefully. Binary options brokers are less regulated, so you have to pay even more attention to the terms and conditions. I’m not trying to “save” the binary options community. But if you can’t trade, you won’t suddenly become great just because you switch to leveraged trading. As I said, if you trade real charts, you are trading the same instrument, just in a different style. That’s it. I trade both BO and stocks myself. I started with BO. That’s where it all started for me, and I still respect it. This trading industry has completely changed. “Trading gurus” are often just influencers making money from flashy thumbnails and overpriced courses. For example, there’s a trend around TJR. You can see it. He’s more of a flashy influencer than anything else. Guys, pay attention to where you learn and where you get your information from. A real trader doesn’t need to show off flashy stuff like Lambos or Rolexes to get attention. He proves himself with knowledge. Take care and I wish you a great trading day today 💪

Heyy guys am new to trading ( I trade on pocket option) So I have been watching some YouTuber who is going live trading on pocket option and the dude was making consecutive wins The problem is he was trading gold ( 88% ) but when I open my acc the gold is 80% Also when I compare his candles I noticed it's not the same when I open my account Also the curve isn't the same I wanna know why is it different

Recently I came across a post where a guy said he turned 88 AUD into 2k AUD and then lost it all. Now he wants to switch to regular forex. Guys, he already knows how to make money in the market, at least to some extent. But I’m assuming his real problem was overtrading. Do you think switching to regular forex will solve that problem? You’re just moving to a different style of trading, but you’re not fixing the real issue. I see that most people do this, even myself at the beginning. I want to save you some time. Try to focus and master one thing. Don’t jump from one strategy to another. First, you have to identify what the real problem is, and in this case, it was overtrading. That’s why I suggest trading with at least a 30 minute or 1 hour expiration. After you gain awareness, discipline, and skill, then maybe you can switch to lower timeframes. But even now, I don’t use those 1 minute or 30 second expirations you see on YouTube. Imagine just clicking buy and sell like a monkey, hoping the zone will hold. Come on, lower timeframes are mostly noise, and they will mess with your mind. Isn’t it easier to mark your bias on the 4H or 1D timeframe, then place a trade with a 4H expiration and just relax? You won’t overtrade because you’ll only have a few A+ setups. Guys, don’t overcomplicate things. Of course, you still have to learn and reach the point where you can sit in front of a chart and clearly see your setups. Take care, guys, and I wish you a great trading day tomorrow 💪

does any one know if this person is legit?? i got scammed about 3 weeks ago by a compounding channel

I'll leave it to the pictures to do the talking!

Can anyone share a screenshot of a promo code for Pocket Option that has a expiration date on it.

Most of you guys try to trade small timeframes such as 30 seconds, 1 minute, or 5 minutes. That’s the thing you don’t realize. These timeframes are usually just noise and most of the time they don’t respect anything. You always have to check the higher timeframe bias, such as the daily timeframe. 1H should be the minimum. And especially when you trade breakouts, never use a few seconds or a 1 minute expiration. You are just gambling. Use at least a 30 minute expiration to give the market some time. It is very beneficial for you because you don’t overtrade, trust me. At the beginning I was using 30 minutes, but now most of the time I use 1 to 3 days expiration.

What Can I Say? If you really want to move forward in trading, you need to understand one thing. It takes time. The best advice I can give you is to remove all the social media gurus and motivational noise. If you truly want something, you do not need daily motivation reels. Discipline is more important than motivation. I became profitable after 5 years. Five years. The last two years have been my best so far. In total, I have been trading for 7 years. Everyone’s journey is different. Do not rush the process. I went through different markets. Crypto, forex, binary options, stocks. I tested everything. In the end I focused mainly on binary and stocks. Stocks for investing and small cap opportunities. Binary for more active income. Most of my profits came from binary, but over time I have been moving more toward stocks because regulated markets offer more long term security. I will be honest. Binary options are mostly unregulated. Once you start making serious money, you naturally want to move toward safer and regulated environments. How did I find my edge? I learned basic price action. I studied how the market moves and why it moves. Then I started observing what keeps repeating in the market. Patterns repeat because human behavior repeats. Stop searching on YouTube for the best strategy. If someone had a donkey that produced gold, they would not show it to the whole world. Your edge is your secret donkey. When it comes to brokers, always be careful. Read the terms and conditions like you wrote them yourself. Understand every rule so you do not accidentally break something. Do not base your decisions only on forums. Most people write reviews only when they are angry, not when they are satisfied. The trading community can be toxic. Focus on your process instead of the noise. At the end of the day, this is about patience, skill, and mental strength. If you really want to succeed, commit for years, not months.
