So what. This proves nothing. So one trader closes with a gain and the other has an unrealized loss of the same amount. The market maker assumes that exposure and when the second closes at a profit it comes out of the market makers pocket. Or when ...

If you were backtesting during the weekend Oanda's mt4 uses their weekend spreads which is about 10 pips for e/u.

Oanda MT4 Datafeed errors?

On the main trading window for the platform at the top you'll see the Help drop down menu. Click on that and select Open Debug Window. I am not sure but it might only log everything each time you launch the application so if you have quit out of the ...

OANDA Discussion

I did read that part. I also know by having been trading with Oanda for many years that if something like that happened that was that glaring a mistake on their part that they would fix it. Something doesn't sound right and by looking into the java ...

OANDA Discussion

Just look at the java log and you'll see what was clicked on at your end of the platform. On the main window go to Help > Open Debug Window. That should show you all the actions that took place on your end to see if someone, you or someone else, ...

OANDA Discussion

Exactly. This is just another attempt to make buy a bounce/sell a rally into a mechanical indicator based system. Buying or selling pullbacks is a key concept to successful trading but do it using support/resistance levels and price action with ...

Ditto.

Does anybody check charts and trade on iPhone or other smart phone?

Why wouldn't people be critical? All you have offered is claims will very little to back it up. You talk about 3 years of these gains and show 6 weeks and talk about small losses but leave out the even smaller gains on average. Then you want a ...

My Smarter 5xact system

By your stats you've posted it's also taking small gains that on average are almost half the size of your average loss. And speaking of those stats, if you've be making these gains for 3 years why are you only showing six weeks of results? Even a ...

A profit factor of 5.5 with 2:1 r/r ratio?!? How big was your sample of trades to calculate this profit factor?

What risk per trade should it go with?

Your absolutely right. You don't get it. The proof has been provided several times. Try to understand it because you, and others, clearly don't. And I am not the only one saying this. I am posting here to help people understand better but that's ...

Three Pairs Hedging

You previously stated that you read the thread. You either didn't read it or didn't understand it. Proof was provided by me as well as others of what this "strategy" is really doing. I provided the math to prove it. This is nothing more than ...

Three Pairs Hedging

Here's a quote of something I said on page 5. I predicted about 100 pages and we're now on 17. Any bets if we make it to 100? I will even lay odds for you.

Three Pairs Hedging

You are correct. But don't waste your time trying to explain it to these people. I have tried til I was blue in face. Some people just don't listen and are too stubborn to learn. They'll just accuse you of not understanding even when the maths are ...

Three Pairs Hedging

You mention near zero exposure can turn a profit. Of course it can cause there's exposure. But there is no reason to use three pairs to get exposure in one pair all the while paying extra spreads costs. The issue is that people do not understand ...

Three Pairs Hedging

I have even done the math for people on this thread showing them that using three pair the way they are is absolutely no different than placing a trade on a single pair and whether they profit or loose is completely dependent on the movement of that ...

Three Pairs Hedging

I read the back cover and made 2 million last year trading.

Van Tharps, Trade your way to Financial Freedom

Read the thread. It's not that long. I as well as several others have shown how this is nothing more than placing a single trade on a single pair. There is no method here. And making a perfect hedge will do nothing to help!

Three Pairs Hedging

This is typically what you'll hear from someone who hasn't figured out how to use it correctly. No offense intended to this person. The fact that when this person has to close all the trades in order to "save my account" means they did not factor in ...

is Averaging Down Profitable?

You're welcome. The change to your trade sizes will do nothing but give you a complete hedge, give or take some units, and will never show a profit. Unless it's from the little exposure you'll have because you not using fractional units and you'll ...
