DeMark TDF Trading

The best conceptual method to understand or "get a clue" on this, I read in a book called "Trading in the Zone" which is posted on this site multiple times. "The Market" (all markets) are described like a completely objective casino. When you go to ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

There are some questions as to the validity of using bollinger bandwidth as a volatility measure due to their use of Std Deviation when price is nonlinear (stddev works on linear stuff correct me if I'm wrong) but whatever, to me they seem the same ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

DIBS as presented by Peter Crown can be a relatively high win rate strategy just by following the original rules and taking everything off the table at 1:1. That is why when I run backtests I always divide the results up to see interesting patterns: ...

Yeah, Donchinian channels are a bit dated in terms of breakouts but there are newer methods which everyone is familiar with, like fractal breakouts, open range breakouts, volatility breakouts, etc. I actually ran down that PDF because a well known ...

Auslanco - GBP/JPY and GBP/USD (newstrade)

The problem is, why would those of us who put in the hard yards to see how to make this strategy effective (I have come up with so far one great filter and found another mentioned in this thread - am experimenting with a third) want to share our ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

Agreed, of all the market instruments I would be willing to long today E/U was the only one and I wussed out over Fridays pin on the futs.

EURUSD

Looks like you might get your wish I reckon malcomb. My EURUSD is signalling a buy, but into Fridays pinbar I don't think so! DAX March futs also indicated a proper sell rollover late last week but I missed it and we are already below 6000 again. I ...

EURUSD

Sorry yes I didn't clarify the two seperate issues. Errrr are you sure you've got your definitions right? Maybe that is what they say it takes advantage of but let's face it we are talking about 2 or 3 algobots trading blocks back and forth over and ...

4% A Day Forever

Unfortunately my friend, I believe you will get killed with this sort of thinking. The fact of the matter is, you can't scalp forex the way you are trying. Spread costs are too high compared to index futures, you have no access to the order ...

4% A Day Forever

I am just messing man, to me the analysis calls don't mean anything from a trading perspective (my bullish one or your bearish one). I'll be shorting and buying with the trend as always (with a few scalps along the way I'm sure). As long as there IS ...
