CFG Trader/Snellgrove

the only axiom is that there are no axioms in trading we actually tried to do this a few years ago. every truth we came up with ended up having some flaws unfortunately, so we gave up. i think this is a good exersize, if we can come up with the ...

congratulations Ron, you sound like you are well on your way to success in this business. remain tenacious and it will come to you. at the end of each year you should be looking back on yourself and saying "damn i was stupid at the beginning of the ...

Expectations then and now?

great post man! way to "give back"

If I knew then what I know now

it started causing market reaction in the past few months so we upgraded it to orange. why it changed recently i really dont know. i did notice the actual was deviating quite a bit from the forecast, but there is probably something more underlying. ...

Why Orange?

come on savior, i expected more from you on this. you claim to have a grip on this NFA situation, but your not really doing your homework as i expected. you said itradefx is going backrupt, you said you are worried about them, yet you dont ...

Proposed NFA Capital Requirement

if you think that ADX is too slow, try using the underlying DMI indicator. or you can just use a small input for ADX. can you tell i like welles wilder? LOL

Identify if FX is trending

it must have something to do with the acquisition, a one month swing like that is not normal. you are the NFA expert, right? go figure this out for us!!

Proposed NFA Capital Requirement

Proposed NFA Capital Requirement

Exits: Our worst enemy

hmm, may have thought of an even better way to explain my point (for the 4th time) pretend you are trading two systems. you happen to be long GBPUSD because systemA got you in the trade 3 days ago. systemB now gives you a short signal on GBPUSD. ...

Exits: Our worst enemy

Exits: Our worst enemy

Exits: Our worst enemy

feel free to start a new journal W-M. the title of this thread suggests a 10,000% gain in one year gain, which has sparked a beginner debate. for your next thread, try changing the title and it will stay in the journal forum.

100$ -->100,000$ (period: 12 months)
