qwer1234, My post was simply to let people know the rules if they don't already know them and to suggest to people to actually read their statements from their broker(s). - Bear
- Who are you trading against?
That sounds like a loaded question doesn't it? Most would respond that you're trading against other ...

Nothing replaces screentime. If you're trading forex for a living, treat it as a job rather than a hobby. No matter where you go, there you are. - Buckaroo Bonzi Don't believe anything that you hear (read) and only half of what you see (charts). - ...

Honestly, if you're new to forex (money management is really basic), then I would suggest that you pretend that you have only 5k-10k at most when figuring lotsize until you get a feel for the market. If you're not new, sorry for jumping in. Bear

shrike Thanks ... That was my thought too, but I was anticipating a 40+ move from where the bid price was anyway and the ask was 10 or so below that. I wasn't concerned with it not making any pips, but if MBT would even allow the trade at all. I've ...

This morning / last night just after the German IFO came out, I was seeing this happening for a few MINUTES and it was 10-15 pips difference. I wanted to take advantage of it, but it freaked me out enough that I didn't (I just recently moved from MM ...

Yeah, thought about that one too. Could always check for new orders and have it randomly decide if the order is correct or the wrong direction. Then keep the order open or do the double reverse thing. The problem with MT4 though is that the random ...

Now that's funny. I actually almost made an expert that would look at any trade I opened and open a reverse trade for twice the lotsize then would close both trades after 10-20 pips. Didn't build it as I figured that I'd remember that the expert was ...

I hate to argue with you (forexguru), but scalping IS for some people. I personally have traded longer timeframes (1h-1d) and anything longer than 4h just has too big of a stoploss for me. Yes, I gear my trades down (typically to 1-3%) and with a ...

Skyhr, Thank you; that was one of the BEST posts I have read regarding trading. Everyone, I'm not sure if this happened or not. A bogus set of results could be created rather quickly created, but I'm not one to call someone a liar without proof and ...

If the computer is actually "off", then no, not without a remote server. Hosting is an option, but webhosting is different than server hosting. (Server hosting is MUCH more expensive.) Another option if the computer doesn't get too hot (and the fans ...

The EURUSD is sleeping, so I thought I'd bring this up. So I've been in the market (demo and live) ...

I can't speak for all brokers, but my demo accounts (for automation forward testing) and my live account (same broker for demo and live) DO show DIFFERENT data by a few pips some times. Bear

From what I've seen, you're correct about the large institutions transations. My background is basically a scientific one, so I'm basing what I wrote on what I've seen. A price moving by a few pips to "grab" a stoploss (at the broker level) is much ...

This is something that myself and my trading buddies have noticed something regarding stoploss points. Points Each broker is basically independant (my broker may offer me a different price than yours) A stoploss is an "order". Basically, if you are ...

I've had the same types of memory problems in the past few years and have always nailed it down to one of 3 things: indicator loop (indicator was poorly written and is falling through into an infinate loop) - solution: pull all indicators and load ...

I would say yes as a general answer, but there may be some odd way of taking other platform's data, exporting it, and re-importing it into a MT4 platform. This would give you delayed info at best. I've moved data from one MT4 to another and shifted ...
- Bear142746 replied Jun 12, 2007
You *could* use a demo account from a MT4 broker, but remember that demo data is different than live data (I've seen this from running demo on one system and live on another) and that data from one broker is typically slightly different from other ...

Just an idea — When I'm trading from my primary system (often use the laptop in the living room to be with family), I actually have multiple installations of the trading platform ... one for each monitor. That way I can minimize one and ...

Yeah, I had the activex thing too ... didn't really think about it at all. Been coding so long that I just ignore anything that I don't want to install and thus ignore the yellow bars in IE. Anyone hear where this might have come from (IP addresses ...
