It is very nice to see this, thanks for posting.

IKON fined $320,000 for Virtual Dealer

So just because scalping is not in line with your own beliefs about how profits are generated, it is not a viable strategy?

Towards the making of rational forex traders....

You asked for input, so here is mine, although I am afraid it is not the kind you want. Only the first one in the list of your objectives is realistic and useful. The other four will lead to ruin, possibly with the exception of the second one. I ...

My 30 pips Daily and my 45% Weekly Journal

No one knows when the next gen iPod will come out, but I am hoping at sometimes in the 1st quarter of 2011. I do not use fibs, or any other indicators for that matter. There should not be much of a problem drawing them however. The best way to find ...

Does Anyone use Iphone to access MT4 via Logmein?

Other than the camera, I strongly doubt any of the things you describe will ever end up in an iPad. Apple is way more about industrial design than function. Having said that, what I personally would like to see in the next gen iPad is at least ...

Does Anyone use Iphone to access MT4 via Logmein?

I have used Jaadu Remote Desktop a while ago. It was a bit of pain to set up as I recall, but once I had it set up, it worked pretty good. I had a 3GS at the time. I got the iPhone 4 now and with the Retina display it will probably work even better. ...

Does Anyone use Iphone to access MT4 via Logmein?

Account size

I believe the problem here is a psychological one, more than anything. Not too many people will trade a $1000 account, and be happy with a 3% monthly. So they try to push the limits of what is possible, and shoot for those elusive 50%-100% monthly ...

Account size

If you are only risking 2% of your account, 50:1 leverage should be more than enough for you to trade. I have had my main account at Oanda for over 5 years now. Their leverage has always been 50:1 and over the years it has never crossed my mind that ...

Account size

The poster above has a good point. Not only is MT4 capable of handling this, it is exactly what MT4 was designed to do. Not only that, having knowledge of both, Excel and MQL I can tell you, that implementing this in Excel would be a tremendous ...

EXCEL Trading

Just because your friend has his trading automated through excel, does not mean you have to. A good option may be to at least consider coding everything in MT4, that way you will not have to deal with the problem of getting your trading instructions ...

David, thank you very much for your reply and kind words. The generosity with which you contribute to this forum is just amazing, so kudos to you for that. I just got a new MacBook laptop, and will be the only computer that I will be using soon, ...

Importing FF calendar data into MS Access

Forget news trading. Once upon a time, there was an opportunity to make good, easy money trading the news. That money however, was coming straight out of the broker's pocket, by taking advantage of a loophole in the system. Brokers have long wizened ...

can't trade news in the future??

You should drag your toolbars in MT4 and arrange them next to each other horizontally. That way you'll get more real estate for your charts :nerd:

AUD/USD

Thanks for your reply hanover. I already looked at the little program you created, and attempted to use it as you are describing here. The problem that I encountered, was that the CSV file generated, would only show the news before 08-20-10. I tried ...

Also keep in mind, that this weekend is the IMF/G7 meeting. This meetings often have an impact on currency and this time around it could have an especially strong impact. Because of the state the global economy is in, all the talk about the currency ...

AUD/USD

I had a few long positions, and closed them all out at .9837. As mentioned earlier this is a historic high, and i believe the only other time A$ has seen this level is back in '08, before the financial meltdown. Having said that, there is a good ...

If you start something, I'll certainly chime in. I trade mostly with fundamentals in mind. They do however tend to be in synch with technical trends more often than not. Cheers...
