fxbroker--i do understand what you're saying about the risk. I have two providers who I really like and trust, so I have just those two at 0.4 mini lots. I have a handful of other providers too who I have all set to 0.1 mini and some of those may never get larger sizing from me due to the risks they take.
So far my strategy has been mainly in picking providers that aren't picking all the same currency pairs so I get some risk avoidance through that too. I know it can be risky to have larger sizing, and that's why I'm telling anyone who asks here that they should consider going only at 0.1 mini lot until they get an idea of how this system works. Right now my levels have been right about in tune with the risk I'm willing to take and I check my numbers constantly throughout the day. Definitely don't want to be high on the settings if someone isn't willing to keep an eye on the account.

I think I got the problem fixed at last. Due to broker minimum lot size 0.1 for min, I think my idea of trading 1% of equity across board for different account holders won't work. I usually send trade in 1 standard lot 1000k which is .5% of 50k. But this doesn't fit as quity size dropped to $100
So I have to come down to start sending out trade in sizes of 0.10 is riduculously low, yet high risk for
some one with account of $100 in equity. Just trying to strike a balance between small account and
big accounts.$5 per day auto-trading service -

The Forex Trading Basics
Trading is probably as old as mankind itself. It's been there since man learned that he could trade his extra stone knife and five arrow heads for somebody else's nice warm fur blanket. These days we call it bartering, but it's the same process.
And these days we've gotten more sophisticated with our trading. Now we use something called money to stand in for the blankets and the knives, but we're still trading our ability to work and produce something useful in exchange for somebody else's goods that we want.
But now, trading is not only about goods or services, it has grown into something much more than that.
Now we're trading one region's money for another region's money because we've learned that their relative values can vary, sometimes significantly. The first enterprising souls to notice this were the world's first currency traders, taking their profits from the buying and selling of actual banknotes and coins.
But today the whole process has been formalized into what we call the Foreign Exchange (or Forex) market. And it has attracted a lot of action. Up to $3 trillion a day worth of action, in fact.
Forex trading simply involves the buying and/or selling of different foreign currencies in the global market. Many investors today don't consider it enough to have a portfolio stuffed only with bonds, mutual funds and stocks.
One of the strongest appeals of the Forex market is its 24-hour open door. On the world clock, a trading day starts in Sydney, Australia and steps from time zone to time zone around the world until it reaches New York city, the last market to open each day. And it does this five days a week, closing only on the weekend.
Almost every country has its own currency, but on the Forex market, it's mostly the so-called "major" currencies that are traded. These currencies are highly regarded because their issuing countries are politically and economically more stable than most other currencies (most of the time).
The major currencies that are traded in the FX market are the Euro, the British Pound, the Japanese Yen and the Swiss Franc, as well as the dollars of Canada, Australia and the USA.
Most people, when they first learn of Forex trading, find it all a bit strange. Typically, money is used to buy goods and services, not other types of money. However, it's not really all that hard to understand. Just think of traveling to another country. Once you arrive, you go to a currency exchange or a bank and trade your dollars or Euros to buy ringits or yen. Then when you return home, you do the same in reverse. Sometimes the value has changed between the two exchanges, and you make a small profit or lose a bit.

I have taken many hours to scour ZuluTrade.com for better signal providers and after going through hundreds, I have narrowed them down to a list I will be adding to my own basket of providers for test for rest of February. There is no guarantee these providers are going to pan out well in the future, but up until now, they assume strategies that do not force us to go below an acceptable stop loss level enough times to turn their "profitable strategies" into losing ones on our end, simply because we need to protect our capital with stop losses.
I was about to give up on Zulu but I got multiple "peeks" into real money accounts, users are earning 1000's of pips every month, so its prudent to try and learn how to do this myself.
The majority of Signal Providers on Zulu will enter trades that take them down 100's of pips, my new approach bars the allowance of any SP that takes trades below 100 pips on multiple occasions. Stuff happens, but if it happens too many times, it could wipe us all out even with stop losses in place. That is why I made the new list of SP's that aren't as aggressive and could more easily help us earn pips instead of give away our capital.
Please trade at your own risk on Zulu, always do your homework and set stop loss levels. Hope you all are successful

Please note people, the top Signal Providers are constantly changing. Zulu is far from a set it and forget it affair, if you risk real money, monitor Zulu like a hawk and make sure you set stop losses. If you didn't have a SP that shorted EUR this week drop him, very important, no reason to miss this weeks incredible downward slide for "expert" signal providers.

Re: Most Profitable Zulutrade.com Signal Providers
When coming to Zulu, please pick signal providers as if you are picking stocks. Try to do careful analyses and use low volumes.
