Learning Together - A Newbie on the road to improvement

Exactly how bad is it live (MT4)? Apart from now I haven't really had much issues in demo, just stupid shit in the beginning like charts getting stuck but since I've reinstalled it seems to be fixed. Once you get past the headache of adjusting to ...

MB Trading Futures - Introduction

Automatic systems have the flaw of not being able to see the big picture and adjust constants based on that. You can say: Whenever price stops within 10 pips multiple times then this is S or R. And the system will do exactly that. What if suddenly ...

The life of a trading system on Forex Factory

Do you believe we will still be able to profit in forex when this happens?

Trading the Apocolypse

I don't think cloggie is neccisarily back because his post was made in nov 2009. I do think elliott wave analysis for determining the stages of a trend is ridiculously accurate. Or perhaps I have not seen enough trends to see it fail.

Reliance on indicators, or not

I think it's because people don't understand that there's not really a set in stone method to profit in forex. They think "if this guy trades profitably like this, then I can too" but it simply doesn't work that way because if you don't understand ...

Rookies looking for something for nothing?

Not as a gamble or as an expectation of news, but because there's simply a good trade showing through technical analysis. Is it THAT bad that any trade before high impact news can automatically be considered gambling? Exactly around what time frame ...

Trading short term before news: avoid at all costs?

Just write down your exit and profit/loss. It's still a profitable trade wheter you write down the exit or actually exit in demo, it should only be frustrating when you actually lose money because of it. Shit happens, and it's much better if it ...

MB Trading Futures - Introduction

I'm happy enough I'm still getting quotes so that I can write down my trades and continue testing my system. Of course if I had real money at stake I wouldn't be very happy, hence my question if live was affected.

Anyone using Astrology, Numerology or Divination methods for Forex?

There really is no way you can get a margin call like that? I figured that even when fully hedged you would still need sufficient margin to take the hit. Or do trades that are up actually give back margin?

No SL No Leverage Strategy - working so far

Stoploss is normally preferred over take profit. Stoploss prevents blowing your account, take profit prevents profiting 100 pips instead of 30. It's going to succeed until it doesn't and then you will lose all your profits and even more because of ...

You should be happy with errors because if it compiled and tried to run you'd be wasting your time.

Adding Compounding Rate to EA

lol, thanks for giving me the idea to use arrays. I figured arrays were peanuts for you and you could immediatly see if it was correct or incorrect. From the rather unclear MQL4 help examples it seems the correct way to declare it would be to use ...

How to find prices closest together?

I might be going about this completely wrong, but I think I have an idea how to get it to work. First save the current accountbalance and time in a global variable (yes I know, let me get to it...), then check with a loop for closed trades (Either ...

Adding Compounding Rate to EA

The example I posted won't work? Perhaps to make it clearer, the prices are possible targets of future prices based on various indicators. I want to find out when multiple of these possible targets are close together and base entry/exits on these ...

How to find prices closest together?
