Three Pairs Hedging

Yeah...interested in helping people better understand and have them not waste their time so they can make progress and not spin their wheels rehashing nonsense. This is like someone getting into their vehicle and a passerby points out to them that ...

And...here we go.

Three Pairs Hedging

The funny part is going to be when no one believes what we're saying until this thread goes about 100 pages and about 12 ea's and indicators to prove it versus just thinking and trying to understand what others are saying and not getting caught up ...

Three Pairs Hedging

This method accomplishes nothing except placing a trade on usd/chf and just holding on to it until it shows a profit. Say you place the trades with 10,000 units per pair buying g/u and u/c and selling g/c. That will just leave you with approx 6100 ...

Three Pairs Hedging

I have never seen one like that.

swing high/swing low indicator and volume tic history

You may want to check that. That's not how the mt4 I use draws them. It draws them exactly how you need. Nevermind. I think I see what you're saying. You want consecutive highs to the highest then down the other side two bars.

what's wrong with the fractal indicator already provided with mt4?

swing high/swing low indicator and volume tic history

Zero sum has nothing to do with the number of participants in a transaction. It's zero sum when all the gains and losses of all the participants add up to zero. A trader could make $1000 and that money came from 3 others losing $250, $500, $250. Its ...

Thinking Outside the Box!?!

Oh...the irony.

Celebrating the first trade

Exactly. I think people want to know so if it is indeed only 5% and they are profitable that they can pat themselves on the back because they are beating 95% of the traders out there. And if they're losing, they can justify it by saying that 95% ...

The 5% success myth busted by CFTC

Trying to make others look bad in order to make yourself look good is always a bad idea because it probably means you can't stand on your own merits.

OANDA Discussion

I am seeing no issues right now with the platform. But I use Mac. Haven't checked it on my pc yet.

OANDA Discussion

Checking weekly doesn't seem to do much especially, as you mentioned, it really doesn't show the overall trend until well into the week and that can be seen by just looking at the last couple daily bars and looking at that price action. Basically ...

Trade What You See - Almost Naked Trading

The first two trades were during the same week yet opposite directions. Are you changing your weekly directional bias mid week?

Trade What You See - Almost Naked Trading

Nope. You would need more than 1 lot of aud/usd to be completely hedged. More like 1.7 lots and that would mean your paying more like .91 on that which means the entire thing is negative interest. If you trade your example they way you laid it out ...

Composite Hedge Arbitrage

If the market is totally random, as you believe, there can be no higher probability side of price movement.

Pro Traders in a Random Market

R/R has been discussed here many many times. Everyone handles it differently and for different reasons based on their trading style and psychology. And no one is right or wrong if it works for them. I think people don't want to rehash everything ...
