Trading Made Simple

cja, Thank you for giving the solution to my problem. Yes, you were right - it was the font size that was causing the problem. I had set the font size from the default size of 100% to the medium size of 125% and that apparently caused the indicator ...

Has anyone else here had any problems with the Signal Bars indicator lately? The indicator is not working correctly and I don't know why. Here is my situation: I ordered a new computer from a company that makes computers specifically for people who ...

Is anyone successful using a large stop loss?

I created a thread today titled "Is anyone successful using a large stop loss?", and in that thread I happened to mention how the famous (and very rich) trader named Paul Tudor Jones goes about trading tops and bottoms. You might find it ...

Top and Bottom “Buy Lower and Sell Higher”

Gobigfx, Tell me this: Isn't it true we CONSISTENTLY see trends in the forex market (as well as any other market)? BUT, how often do you - or anyone for that matter - see 10 blacks or 15 reds in a row on a roulette wheel? The answer is: NOT NEARLY ...

Forex Dream Chasers - The 90% rule of randomness

Hi CurrencyAnalyst, Oanda did the exact same thing to me a few months ago. However, to their credit, they did follow through by wiring me my money and they did not charge me a wiring fee or any other fee whatsoever. I still have a small account with ...

#Signal Bars v10a

Hi cja, I am curious about the settings in your indicator. You have 8, 17, 9 for your MACD setting, and you have 5 and 9 for your ema setting. My question is: are those numbers the numbers you use for your personal settings? Or, are those numbers ...
