In another part of Africa the proverb goes like this: "When elephants fight the ants get trampled." I definitely feel like an ant in the forex market but like the fire ant I have a nasty bite!

Thank you for the reply. I knew I had read it somewhere before and a long time ago. I did do a search query in this thread which turned up nothing so that is why I asked. What peaked my interest is the Phx62 post where he traded the 15M during the ...

This has been a maddening year for me trading forex and it's time to get back to what works. I have the TDI basics down pretty well but somewhere in this thread there is an explanation of the TDI 50 level and when to use it - would someone be so ...

I disagree. Far too many of us open up the charts right away and think we see a trade - boom; ok for a little bit and then it goes south. 30-45 minutes spent seeing what has happened during the last 8 hrs will make for a good trade (or two) during ...
3 Steps To Turn Your Trading Around

After Monday & Tuesday of watching this trade go plus or minus 10-12 pips it went into the tank and nearly hit my stop loss. It has recovered slightly so I'm minus approximately 90 pips at the moment. I believe it would be helpful to look at two ...

Bedayan - a very interesting dashboard but how does one interpret a pair where on a particular TF, say the 1H, it has 2 red and 1 green arrow. And sometime the order of the colors vary, a green in the middle or a green to the far left or far right. ...
Simple 5 / 8 moving average crossover
- piprac replied Apr 11, 2013
Now I get it. I only trade 8 prs on the 4H so I may look at the D & 1H for trend indications or just see a likely setup on the 4H and pull the trigger. Wow, 30 pr - at least you can probably find one good trade, yesterday I didn't see one so no ...

Simple 5 / 8 moving average crossover
- piprac replied Apr 9, 2013
My success with this strategy, using mainly the 4H at 7am cdt/us, is looking for a strong cross ie. the ma's pointing at "2" or higher or "4" or lower (clock dial.) I also use rsi with levels of 45 & 55 and yes, I have taken trades where I could see ...

I partially closed @ .8558 & then moved my SL to .8531 (BE+7) which was hit later which added a tad over1% to my acct. I'm a happy camper this morning.

I captured +30 pips with the E/Y, 1H TF this morning. I closed early as it put me in profit for the week and month. And by the way it's "his pants are looser proving he is not a loser controlling his weight."

Thanks for the comments. I looked last evening during that 2 hr time period but didn't see anything plus there were holidays that directly impacted the 2 hour period. I might also test the 1 - 2 hour period before the NY open, say 5am to 7am eastern ...
