Thanks Roels, indeed. 'Overtrading' is per se quite a subjective classification....

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Thanks man. Need to give credit to both you and GJScalper for this duel, since there is a lot of 'mythbuster' from seeing how the two distinctive trading style clash. Keeping up the nice works.

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Just a quick comment on the criticism on Geppy being overtrading he received last week. We can see now this might not be the case. Swing traders might open a lot of trades in short period of time (scaling in / averaging) and then hold them for a ...

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Nice chart. Very clear double top pattern Roels .

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Agreed with you. Wait until EU open/US open, the pound pairs may continue heading lower. I think that's why Geppy banked his profit from GBP short. Saving ammo for the next firing round .

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

You know when the swing starts to payoff. Unrealized gain of Geppy (at the time of writing) is 35% in one day. Massive. Now come to the hard part of swing trading: to book the profit or not .

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Agreed. I also mainly do swing trading. One of our weakness against daytraders or scalpers is just this type of market - so choppy, and often we hold on to our trades longer then them. Anyways, keep up the good work. You have good analysis and ...

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Ouch, that hurt real bad for Geppy. Shouldn't let your running gain outside when a storm coming like that, especially those tier 1 storm like Retail Sales. You will get steam-rolled just in matter of time. But really feel for him, nothing worse than ...

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Most of GBP pairs now seems like going into consolidation. Only GBPAUD and GBPCAD gain ground due to sliding in oil price. This is the least favorite setting to stay in the market cuz technicals and fundamentals are not 'aligned' with each other. ...

Geppy vs. GJscalper - a duel to the death!

Really interesting. This spices up the old factory . Forexfactory should have some sort of monthly tournament/duel (considering computer game tournaments like Starcraft or Warcraft, this pretty much the same). Who said that chivalry is dead. Let ...
