Graeme so eloquently described the '5-move lookahead in chess' example. I am now able to make that connection with the market. I hope my winning streak continues and not just a lucky day. I was a 'bracket trader' before I ran into this thread. not ...

Marion's H4 FB in action — couldn't take all the trades by the book but close enough to get the feel of this strategy.

From what I understand, FB on Weekly along with a FB on D1 or H4 or H1 TF is just fine to take an entry on M5 TF.

I agree... in the larger scheme of things when one is successful and have multiple pairs with 1000+ pips in profit. At that phase, you really don't care about weekend gaps etc. BUT... when you are starting out and trying to build your long term ...

I agree. This system needs a lot of practice and rewards will be far greater than the initial pain/drawdown. I bet everyone of us will become more confidant and successful once we have one leg of 1000 pips that survived for atleast a month. To help ...

Couldn't agree more.... SL order is just another market order in the opposite direction and is dependent on the next 'available' tick on bid or offer. This happened to me this past weekend when I had two E/J soldiers in 50+ pips at BE. Weekend ...

Building an equity millipede

Good idea skyline but perhaps a bit premature at this point IMHO. I think I/we have all the details nailed down to create a more logic-driven/robust/pseudo-mechanical trading plan out of this strategy and then practice as per it's rules. My list of ...

I just discovered another way to 'group' trades by each timeframe. Instead of using same position size (like Marion) across all TFs, one could use 2 lots in 4H, 1 lot in 1H and 0.5 lot in 15M TF and then sort open position window in your trading ...

Only a humble soul could view this as a 'responsibility' instead of doing us all a huge favor. My dad always used to say "Take care of your health and happiness will follow". What we have going in this thread is going to last for a very long time so ...

Agree Cameron. Just to add my experience... I have already made the following changes to my own trading philosophy... - Never use Bracket Orders with predefined SL and TP regardless of what strategy or system I use. Result: I took short EJ and long ...

Thanks Graeme for articulating it with such clarity. Your recent posts are making a whole lot of sense to me every time I re-read them. I am ready to practice the heck out of this strategy in the coming weeks and months and surely will have more ...

Hi Tommbstone, 2 trading platforms with two screens will only work with two separate trading accounts and some trading platforms won't let you run twice on the same computer. There is no charting software I know that will organize your trades based ...

Second set of questions on Marion's 4H FB strategy — Hi Graeme, Your posts are indeed bringing a lot of clarity. Hopefully this will be my final round of questions on Marion's trading strategy. 1. If I am not mistaken. Marion trades multiple ...

Thanks Stitch for bringing this to my attention. I have fixed the links in my post. EDIT: I take that back Stitch. The number in the url is some kind of a session id instead of Graeme's accountid. I am deleting all the links from post# 2150 until I ...

Hi Greame, Thank you so much for your long and elaborated response. Absolutely love your style of writing. If you don't mind, I feel I need a few more clarifications to bake this all in my head. 1. Very interesting. I was focussed on longer upper ...
