It's old, very old news. Thousands of Americans are killed every year by illegals. Murder, manslaughter, drunk drivers, bad drivers, etc. Anyone can find this out in a minute or two. Comparing that to overall crime is ludicrous. Crime is not ...

Flying Dutchman

Central banks, uncertainty, and dollar trajectory, yes to all. But, I think FOMO in retail traders will drive the ultimate top - market psychology. They're just starting to get in now. Wouldn't hurt to take some profits and ease into scaling out. ...

Gold with No Drama

Why would you think that? I've been here for 17 years and have at least 17 more to go.

Anyone used/use Open Interest indicator?

Thanks again, that's working well. As long as they're different sized, everything works as it should. With this strategy, if one trade is going negative, the next signal will be higher probability, so I don't mind putting on a larger trade. ...

OANDA Discussion

Thanks! That helps me out. I'll just take a different sized order. If I get that "off quotes" error, add some size and try again.

OANDA Discussion

I just opened a couple demo accounts with oanda because MT4 was shut off at TradersWay to all US customers. Just when I had an EA that works. First hangup, ofuanda closes forex from 16:59 until 17:05. What on earth? Are we allowed to use foul ...

Any other platform that runs my MT4 programs? What platform would that be?

End of MT4 / MT5

I would think the big banks love small traders. When our stops pile up, they run them. We provide liquidity to the markets which they manipulate.

End of MT4 / MT5

That would be great. But if they're not letting us use it at all, it's not likely they're going to sell it to a US company.

End of MT4 / MT5

My MT4 platform has trading disabled. EA tries but cannot take trades. Manual trades do not execute. So there won't be anything to copy.

End of MT4 / MT5

Is it for sure US regulations? The notice said MetaQuotes policies. Wasn't it programmed by Russians or Ukrainians? I'm wondering if it's because of you-know-who doing you-know-what.

End of MT4 / MT5

OK, I'm going to ask the stupid question that I'm sure has been answered before: WHAT are we actually buying and selling? Futures? Actual gold on margin? Depends on the broker? I'm on an ECN broker, so currency trades actually go to the interbank ...

Gold RIGHT NOW

The definition at the beginning of the thread is certainly interesting - to play a game for money. OK, we're all gambling, but that's not how I define gambling. I go with the definition of betting on something with a random outcome - roulette, dice, ...

Are We All Gambling?

Where is this information? Your trade idea is good and would result in a leading indicator with good prediction.

I will code your EAs and Indicators for no charge

Thanks for that, Drolph. So, my indicator works quite well on the 15M, but I still consider it a scalp, looking for 5-10 pips. Is it safe to say that, if it doesn't work on MT4 backtest, then it isn't going to work any better doing a really good ...

How does one get a good backtest?

Wouldn't that be called "forward testing"?
