It's designed by market-makers pretending to be brokers, who particularly want to attract people keen on trading out-of-hours, knowing that they're among the biggest losers. The pseudobrokers are particularly keen on attracting the victims of ...

Day Trading the off-hours

There are certainly some interesting (and entertaining) pictures in this thread. I don't have a "workstation" to show anyone: just a perfectly normal computer, with one screen (I can't look at more than one at a time). For me, anything else is ...

Show us your workstation!

This. Very, very, very, very much this! The huge mistake is to look for short-cuts, which is why the word "Desperate" in your thread-title alarmed me: desperate people tend to be the ones looking for short-cuts. That's just a way of stacking the ...

Desperate to learn a new strategy

I can't speak of the others, but this one isn't a "regulator", per se, at all. Companies claiming to be "regulated" by it are concealing something. Some firms word it in such a way, on the "About" pages of their websites, to try to make it sound ...

Are these lessor-known forex regulators trustworthy?

You're right that trading signals from higher timeframes tend to be more reliable, but what you're talking about here relates only to companies who are pretending to be brokers. They're actually counterparty market-makers, who are trading against ...

H4 stoch and CCI based strategy

Yes: you should ask this question somewhere in the forum where "fundamentals" and/or "gold" is discussed, not in the middle of someone else's thread asking for forex-trading strategy suggestions.

Help Me Find New Strategies

Yes (but not nearly as often as I trade with the main trend, and not with the same position-sizing): I also trade some clear 1-2-3 formations, and those are perceived reversals.

Help Me Find New Strategies

There are many, many different ways of determining how/when to do this (let me know if you want a little list!). In my opinion, two things are pretty certain ... 1. "An oscillator" isn't going to be a good answer, and ... 2. Whichever method you ...

Is There an Oscillator Indic that Works Well in a Strong Trend?

Not for me. I'd need an impossibly high win-rate to be satisfied with that. In theory/in abstract, what you're saying makes complete sense, of course, and is entirely logical ... but in reality, there's some "safety in numbers" in that your ...

Help Me Find New Strategies

Absolutely ... a very good suggestion, given the OP's question. Usually not - really. In general, experienced and successful traders tend, overall, to want to avoid very high win-rate systems. These are typically systems which regularly make ...

Help Me Find New Strategies

Interesting, though, isn't it, to see the hugely statistically significant overall differences between (for example) traders at Interactive Brokers, and those at (for example) FX-CM? Successful traders, by and large, are not, of course, trading ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

Very interesting; thanks for posting it, and the link. I like the mention there of his "quantitative approach to gambling"! Trading, I think, is very well suited to "Aspies". I'm not at the extreme end of the spectrum at all, and rarely comment on ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

Most commendable attitude. I wish I could say the same about myself. All too often I fail to resist the urges to correct factual misinformation and to make comments that come across more critically than I'd intended - not habits conducive to posting ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

I'm sure this is right. You're in the same position as a large number of others, I'm quite sure. With apologies, it's such an atypical story that it's probably not helpful to anyone else here. But here's the abbreviated version, at least so I ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

Fine, but why on Earth would they be offering to show you their account statements??? How can that help them?? I happen to be one of the people you're asking about; but at the end of the thread, just as at the beginning of it, you're only going to ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

The important thing is to learn to distinguish between those who are actual brokers and those who are pretending to be brokers. A "broker" is someone who executes trades on your behalf in an underlying market (in the case of forex, that's the ...

Can anyone recommend a reliable Broker?

Very few, I suspect, especially among those promoting goods/services (apart from by selling their goods/services, I mean). But in any case, you can't find that out, this way. What conceivable incentive would members making a living through trading ...

Percentage of successful traders in Forex Factory

One of the best threads I've seen here. This method is so solidly-based, on parameters that actually mean something, that even "scaled-down" versions of it, on faster time-frames, can also be steadily profitable, with appropriate position-sizing - ...

Support and Resistance Method - Pharley

Did you perhaps mean to say that the minimum risk-to-reward is "1:2", rather than "2:1"? Or that the minimum reward-to-risk is "2:1"?

RPS V2.3 - The Extremely Robust Trading System

Some of the "information" offered in this thread is very out-of-date now; some was also inaccurate and misleading when it was originally offered and is still inaccurate and misleading now. The words "caveat emptor" and "take professional advice" ...
