This seems like a sensible way to size positions, taking advantage of standard deviation from the average price. Do you adjust the 'density' of the grid so that more orders are clustered further away from the COG and fewer are clustered near the ...

Trading multipair triangles, no stoploss

There's a good reason not to publicly embarrass them (and risk reprisals) especially if this was not intentional and is, as ProjectM says, a common problem. It is only on the order of thousands, not hundreds of thousands. The money situation has ...

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

Hopefully all the broker BS hasn't taken the shine off your love of the game, Magix. Personally, I think vengeance is a perfectly good reason for living ...and for trading! Hear from you soon, and stay out of the smoke.

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

Thanks for the offer, Soros. They have restored the chart to normalcy and have said they will fix the affected accounts. However I'm standing still while they work on it. The timing seems suspect at least as I was ahead on a few trades. What I want ...

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

They're trying to slow me down. Today's drop in GN would have been a nice juicy win, probably doubling the account (opened at Christmas). That's an average of 16+% per month. Not too shabby, but within the bounds of safety. Let's see what happens ...

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

I asked if this is a common occurrence. They said, "this has never happened before." This is what my equity curve looked like before they tagged me. No matter, I'm going to get it all back and then some...unless there's another 'bad tick'. image

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

Hmm, they say it was a 'bad tick' and it's going through a 'correction process'. I guess we'll see.

Gold price spike from 1310 to 34 in one minute?

Not going to get my level and I have trouble explaining what's happening using the normal method. Plus it's time-consuming to update and track so - back to the drawing board.

Gold is also ready to trend up so I must have a chart ready for next week.

Short-term (Tuesday) target 1.932

Bearish view reconfirmed and as you can see from this daily chart, more downside could be in store with the 5 week cycle. It's entirely positioned and contained within the band so it could possibly last the full 5 weeks, rivalling or exceeding the ...

GBPNZD comes back down to its ranging level once again and is now at a long-term crossroads. Maybe my bearish view wasn't flawed after all. If so I need a way to tune my bands so that they can account for more robust fluctuations.

Clemmo's Trading Odyssey

And there we go - in retrospect trading in front of the CPI is never a good idea so we'll abandon any remaining shorts and focus on a long narrative. 7/9 then to keep us honest. I'm going to work up another chart and let's follow this AUD/NZD ...

Clemmo's Trading Odyssey

A wilder ride than I expected but target was reached. Second target is 1.9394 ~end of day Wednesday and if we have difficulty meeting it I'll have to reconsider my bearish stance. Here's what that might look like although I don't like the bands as ...

url An interesting article (most FX pundits are rubbish but I respect Kathy Lien) about low volatility in FX overall which may be one reason things have been in such a tight range lately. For anyone worried that high vol will not return, be ...
