How long do you trade in general?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We have been actively trading the cryptocurrency market since 2015. Many of our traders have traded forex before they moved into crypto.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
What was your financial market before you started to trade cryptocurrency (USA, Europe, Russia, New York, Forex)?
Jonny (4C Trading)
As mentioned above, most of our traders had traded forex markets before they started trading cryptocurrencies. Our co-founder Julien has worked at banks before and was responsible of conducting trading strategies and risk management strategies which gives us a competitive edge over competitors. We know the ins and outs of trading, are experienced in fund strategy modeling and bring these experiences into our service and to our members.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you work/Did you work in other trading companies? If yes - in which ones? Is it a public or private company?
Jonny (4C Trading)
As mentioned above, Julien was part of a team in a major bank modeling trading strategies. Before 4C-Trading appeared our team was working for the Crypto-Addicts brand which started in early 2018.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Did you trade with your own money or with money of your company where you did trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Most of our traders have traded their own money for multiple years. We have a very detailed onboarding process for our traders to ensure that they have the experience, mentality and determination we need and our customers deserve.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Please provide contacts (Telegram, Viber, Skype s.o.) of the person who can guarantee you did trading in that company.
Jonny (4C Trading)
As we are legally not allowed to provide contacts of any bank, feel free to reach out to our co-founder Julien @Julien_4c on telegram for further clarification.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How much money did you earn while trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
As we are a team of traders, this question is impossible to answer. However, we are talking about six figures in trading gains for our top traders.
Andreas (safetrading.today)

Jonny (4C Trading)
You can find our team on our website: https://4c-trading.com/team/
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Which crypto exchange do you use for crypto trading and why?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We use Binance as the liquidity we need can only be found on Binance and it is one of the most reliable exchanges to send signals. Besides, we trade on Bitmex for margin trading for the same reason. However, we are always looking for new platforms to explore, given that they offer enough market liquidity.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How many people are there in your team?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We are a team of 15 people. Most of our team works from Brussel, the financial center of Europe. Other team members are spread all around the world.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How much time do you use on preparation for trading every day?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We are always prepared as we constantly watch the market.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How much time do you trade every day?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We basically trade around the clocks we are a team of many.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How often do you open a deal (1 time/day, 1 time/hour)?
Jonny (4C Trading)
That really depends on whatever the market offers to us. We do not hunt trades, we do not rush trades. You must understand that with such a big community we cannot send a random trade on a very low liquidity asset as then most of members would not be enter the trade. Our trading signals are customized for our members and the size of our community. On average we send about 30-50 signals per month.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you trade on your own or use a bot?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We have our own 4C-Trading trading dashboard which is our main console. Our trades are manual trades though supported by machine learning. Our members can follow our trading signals with our in-house Auto trading bots that operate on Bitmex and Binance. Additionally, we have a fully automated trading Bot on Binance- The SMART USD bot which is a fantastic tool to protect your capital against big market drops.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Does your trading strategy take into account a fundamental analysis of crypto market or assets? Please provide an example of such an analysis.
Jonny (4C Trading)
BTC Update What happened yesterday on the Bitcoin? A crash? The end of crypto? So if we can indeed talk about a crash given the violence of the movement, it is not at all alarming for the long-term growth potential of Bitcoin. Indeed, to understand what happened yesterday, it is necessary to look back. After four weeks of uninterrupted growth, the BTC began a two-week consolidation from May 27. What happens next? A huge bull chandelier that launched the $14,000 assault. In the case of an increase of this magnitude, some of the orders in the orderbook are not filled. This is called a liquidity gap. In this case, this is an exhausted gap that is generally filled. Yesterday's decline bounced back almost exactly halfway through the liquidity zone, nothing to worry about. We will now wait to see if the BTC will come to test the bottom of its demand zone before bouncing back. If you are a Long-term BTC bullish like all of us, yesterday's drop was just an opportunity to accumulate more! https://www.tradingview.com/x/Mg3UaY0m/
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Is your trading strategy based on technical indicators? If yes - which indicators do you use?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Of course, we do use certain indicators. Though, we believe that too many indicators do not add extra value to our trading. We would rather not disclose which indicators and strategies we use as it is sort of our "secret sauce" we would rather not give away.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Is the preservation of capital or multiplication of it a priority for you?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Preservation of capital always comes first for any serious trader. Whoever tells you something different is not a real trader. Multiplication always comes after preservation, obviously. However, we are professional, risk management is absolutely essential.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
What is the win rate percentage of your strategy?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We have multiple strategies, our most common one is around 75% correct. In that regard I want to clarify a common myths: Accuracy alone doesn't say anything. Fund strategies have accuracies below 50%, yet they are highly profitable. However, in the trading signal game members expect higher accuracy which we respect and try to fulfill.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Which Risk Reward do you use in trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
2:1 ideally.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Can you provide an amount of deals made on cryptocurrency market?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Good question, that should be way above 1000+
Andreas (safetrading.today)
With what Buying Power have you started?
Jonny (4C Trading)
As we are a team of traders, I can't make such a statement. Everyone started with a different budget.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
What Buying Power do you have now?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Not enough to move the market (laughing).
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you have an experience of fiduciary management of clients’ capital?
Jonny (4C Trading)
No, we do not get in contact with clients capital. That requires licensing which we are not interested in as of now.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Please provide contacts of the person who can confirm your experience in fiduciary management of his/her capital?
Jonny (4C Trading)
See above.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How much money have you earned with crypto market?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Again, we are a team of traders. If you ask me personally, that is a really private question which I would rather not answer. I can tell you that much: I can't complain ;)
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Name please the cryptocurrency you earned the biggest amount of money with?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Bitcoin.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
What is your trading result as a percentage of the starting deposit at the moment?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Above 1000% return for me personally.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you follow other crypto traders? If yes - which ones?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Yes, of course. Others opinions are always interesting though they never influence our own trading. Of course we follow Peter Brand otherwise it is no-one specific more like randomly being informed about different opinions.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you use signals of other crypto traders? If yes - which ones? Is it BitMEX, Binance, Bittrex, Bitfinex or Poloniex?
Jonny (4C Trading)
No.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you use leverage? How often and which one?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We usually use about 10-20x leverage.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
How risky is your trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Medium risky. We have a professional background. We refrain from risky trading and always implement proper risk management at 4C-trading.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Which risk percentage do you set on every deal?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We usually risk between 1-3%.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
What maximum drawdown did you have? How did you get out of it?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We cannot speak of drawdown strictly speaking because it is not a question of investing all of its capital in each of our trades. If we take the positions separately, the biggest loss we suffered is 6.8% loss leverage 10 on Bitmex. How do we deal with this kind of event? It's very simple, we provide clear and precise instructions regarding the % of portfolio risk to be taken and the leverage effect in the case of a trade on Bitmex for each signals. So, we sort of prevent big losses in the first place so that we don't need to "get out".
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you have a maximum drawdown limit at which you stop trading and no longer work?
Jonny (4C Trading)
We never stop trading, our risk management policy allows us to limit the risk to a single position. The latter therefore has no impact on the next trade. In addition, we strive to maintain as large a risk/return ratio as possible at 4C-trading.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Is your risk constant or variable?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Variable between 1-3%.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Have you had margin calls?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Yes, we actively trade on Bitmex.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you think it is possible to gain profit from every deal in crypto trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
No, never hunt every trade. That is doomed to fail.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you think it is better to risk and earn a lot of money or to risk with small earnings?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Consistency and risk awareness are the key.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you listen for other people’s advice while trading?
Jonny (4C Trading)
Internally, yes we do. We are a team, everyone has a voice. We always like to improve and learn but we do not get influenced by other traders, that would be really bad.
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you think emotional background has an influence of traders’ results? Please describe such a situation from your own experience.
Jonny (4C Trading)
Emotions are human, though trading should be mechanical. If you have a loosing streak which every trader will have at some point, pressure becomes immense. We had this once at 4C-trading and members tend to pressure our traders which always backfires. Against the odds, we gave our trader freetime to clear his head, rest and start all over again. it worked, we had a 17 signals win streak after :-D
Andreas (safetrading.today)
Do you have a cryptocurrency market statement certified by a broker?
Jonny (4C Trading)
No, we don't have it yet. Though, it remains an option for the future.
