Hmmm. I'm not sure I follow the relevance. Are you saying that because Forex is considered a zero sum "game" that that is the same as playing a "game" of chance? I'm not sure you're using "game" in the same context as the definition.

Trading IS Gambling...

I agree that trading is gambling, but, it is not gaming. The negative connotation of gambling comes from the gaming industry. Consider the following definitions from dictionary.com: 1a/1b. This does not describe trading. Trading is not a game or ...

Trading IS Gambling...

Folks, A couple of things to be aware of on this (and warned about). (And, given the cynical view of most traders on the forum, you're welcome to go corroborate this information yourself.) CoesFX does not do clearing for MINI accounts. They've ...

CoesFX - MT4 - Mini Accounts

Actually Scott, there was talk about shutting that thread down. Not only that, but even after I provided clear evidence regarding the matter, I was then accused of foul play - making up the whole story simply because I wouldn't release the name of ...

Every thread should be respected

Not that my opinion really matters, but, I'm with CotJam and Joneborn on this one. I've already posted that my trading friend with a $300k account with interbankfx has experienced the IDENTICAL problem. He told me after reading the post that he ...

bad broker..The worst of the worst ..reprise

Thanks for adding the depth. I guess I visit these forums so much and I see a lot of vague information being passed around. Indeed, I'm probably a culprit, too. Not to single you out, but, I think I would have liked to have seen an initial post like ...

Opportunity Knocks

I'm wondering what you're implying? Are you suggesting some sort of conspiracy? I think that what we have here is a group of guys who know each other from trading, who all use IBFX because they live in Utah and that's where IBFX is, and they are all ...

bad broker..The worst of the worst ..reprise

I think we can do better on this forum than to speculate on which way a moderately important economic report will go. I'm not sure how much trading experience you have, Gerard, but I think a post like yours can be somewhat misleading to a new ...

Opportunity Knocks

Gerard, You seem to have some inside information that most of us do not. Would you mind elaborating on why you're so confident the numbers will be higher than expected? Sounds like you have an "in" somewhere that could be helpful. Thanks. stockwet

Opportunity Knocks

Their demo accounts expire every 30 days. You can sign up for another account in MT4. Since you're looking for something more permanent, there's a thread on this forum called MT4 server files. It shows you how to get a bunch of different server ...

Free chart

Are you trading live or demo? If demo, get used to this. On live servers, this will rarely happen, in my experience. You can try another platform if you like, but, there are a lot of things that will affect performance of your client terminal, and ...

MT4 Hangup - ibfx, sbfx not trading

I think, on average, my system generates a signal a day. If I make 18 pips in a day, I'm happy. You'll here this from me over and over and over ... trade your system religiously. Use the extra time to do something positive in your life (do something ...

Boring day

Thanks. My question was specifically regarding Rusty's post #87. I didn't quite gather that the way you are describing was the way Rusty accounts for pips and I was interested in his method. I account for pips the way you do, which is an averaging ...

What is your monthly target?

If you use MetaTrader 4, you can install server files for a number of different brokers and then try them all. This post url shows you how to do it. Regards, stockwet

Demo accounts

Hey Rusty, I'm not entirely following your pip counting method. Could you clarify? It sounds interesting. For sake of clarification, I have a few questions: 1. Are you taking your whole position out at once, or, do you take parts of the position out ...

What is your monthly target?

Yes, you are accurate. That's why you need to find a reputable broker. Some brokers protect client funds using a fidelity bond, which is a good thing to look for in a broker. If you notice, there are some traders on these forums who were caught up ...

Security of Trader's Funds

Frank, I just tested running two instances of MT4 with two different feeds at the same time. It was just a preliminary test. I'll try it out in a bit more depth tomorrow with my experts, but, everything seems to work. I have a version of MT4 from ...

MetaTrader 4 Server Files

Broker, as far as I know. The trailing stop is held on the client.

MT4 Stop and TP

AT, I'm sure a number of people do that. For me, I'm not sure it's practical. I use a breakout strategy and if I have a data feed for my charts different from the datafeed I'm trading off of, I can run into some early entry problems. Otherwise, I ...

MetaTrader 4 Server Files

For screenshots, I use screenhunter. It's free and simple to use. It doesn't have a ton of options, but, enough for me to take screenshots. You can get it at Download.com: url
