Recently, I proved it is possible to fall up a flight of stairs. It turns out all you need is several Captain Morgan's and Cokes. Does that count?

I never proved anything

Well, that post was like a little ray of sunshine.

TOUCHDOWN!

Silly Trader... When will you learn that fundamentals are the only way to trade?

Possible. But there are many other considerations to take into account as well. While I certainly would not want to discourage you, there are some things I would ponder first: 1 - How are you going to feel about "real money" instead of the fake ...

This is really generous. And dare I say.....sounds desperate? "Pending NFA Approval" and giving away 8% returns. Now if only they were based out of some cool place like Beirut, we'd be talkin'! Clockwork

should i open an account at fxcm or fxdd or somewhere else

I would venture to say that this all comes down to these clowns using the same dealing desks. Yes, dealing desks. Lehman Brothers, DB, Citibank are all part of IBFX's clearing. Considering that these are some of the largest dealing desks that I know ...

I agree 110%. Just remember, there are countless ways to make money grow. Don't put all your effort into just the Forex market. Bonds, stocks, ETFs, drug running ventures, gun smuggling....hell, there's money to be made everywhere! Try not to be ...

Is forex the best investment?

This brings up a interesting point. — There seems to be a lot of confusion with traders on how to exit trades. Although there are a few different ways I can think of off the top of my head, there is one golden rule in my opinion.... Never, ...

You guys have missed a moajor point. — Let me tell you what Jim would say about what I am seeing: "Get good at weekly and daily charts before moving down in time frames." In other words, those 1 hour charts are not very valid most of the time. ...

KissFan....(Should be thinking Maiden truthfully.) You are correct, this is a GREAT LESSON. When we start out, we get nervous when a trade doesn't take off for us right away. But Mr. Trend is correct, (He always is.) that the IBs afterwards helps ...

Just close your account. To be honest, it's your only choice of recourse. There are plenty of bucket shops out there, don't stick with just one.

Huge slippage Thursday morning on EURUSD??

It's simple, trading the news is for suckers. I read somewhere that the first target was 12 pips! Put it in perspective. 12 pips out of a price of something like 1.5800 So you are aiming for 12 out of a possible 15,800 pips. (Assuming value of EURO ...

Huge slippage Thursday morning on EURUSD??

I believe tdion was also looking at adding in certain points. (Maybe every 250 pips for example.) If you did it that way, once the cashing out of the positions came, it could be a huge payday...... I think it all comes down to how you go about it. ...

Silly Trader... When will you learn that fundamentals are the only way to trade?

Big Steve - Don't worry about this month, there has been a lot of bad juju out there. I have to admit, I am profitable this month, but at half of what I normally do. I seriously think it's only because I didn't have a lot of time to look at charts. ...

Steviet's Live Trades!

My advice is trade longer-term. In fact, I recommend this to everyone. However, think about this: Even if you were there.....could you stop news from stopping you out anyways? All you can do is play probabilities. Beyond that, your job is done. ...

Work fulltime during main trading hours ?

Yes, I did. I think you are certainly asking the right questions. AND....thinking your way through it. Too many people focus only on the rewards, and not the trading. Which....of course, offers only losses in the end. Clockwork

Any pin will do?

Simple, there are various places that serve as PPZ's on a chart. I just aim for the next one. Or, if it's a potentially juicy pinbar, I will trail behind by two days. Might as well let it run as far as it can is my thinking. Clockwork

I would highly encourage you to keep looking into it. It certainly cannot hurt you, especially if you are using demo accounts. (You should if you are just starting out.) Besides, there is always the possibility that you notice something that suits ...
