Interview with March's King of the Micro winner

Timmy once was just like you. He wanted what you wanted and dreamed of one day having all the good things life could offer.

The only difference is – He did something about it!

But you can do the same. You can start, now.

Note:

The Microlot accounts are handled by a separate division of FXCM that does not offer a referral program. It is not part of our package with FXCM. Opening a microlot account does not entitle the owner to join our training. Moreover, targeting over 100% gains in any single month should be regarded as extremely high risk and is not recommended. But reasonable incremental profits are possible to those who are sufficiently trained.

		How I Won $25,000 An Interview with March's King of the Micro King of the Micro for March, Timmy Cheng, is a native of Hong Kong who does his trading everywhere—at home, in the office, in cafes, and even in public gardens. The King started the month with $961 and ended up with $19714—a winning percentage increase of 1951.22% and the $25,000 First Prize. Please remember that past performance is not indicative of future results. How long have you been trading forex? Ten years. Do you have a favorite source for news, and technical indicators? For news I read the Hong Kong newspapers. For technical indicators I use www.dailyfx.com.hk. Which pairs do you prefer to trade? The Big Three: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY. How long did you hold trades, typically? Less than a day. How much time did you spend trading? From eight to sixteen hours a day. What’s the best overall strategy for trading? What’s the worst? Every trade must begin with a clear plan and direction, and the trader must follow the plan. If there is no plan, or if the trader doesn’t follow the plan, failure is almost certain. What do you think is your greatest weakness as a trader? Emotion. What do you think of the King of the Micro competition? It’s a great idea. It invites competitors to match their trading skills with traders from around the world. It is a wonderful way to promote serious forex trading. How would you judge the forex market vs. the equities market? In the equities market, one giant investment company can take virtual control of an area. In forex, by contrast, the sheer size and international scope of the market creates a level playing field for the trader. Also, forex goes on 24 hours a day, which is much more convenient for a trader. How has trading changed your life? It has allowed me to realize substantial extra income, which has improved my quality of life. What advice would you give to a new trader? Better to miss an opportunity than to make a wrong decision. The Other Winners Second Place: winning $10,000 was a trader from the United States with a percentage increase of 1919%.
