I haven't read but more than a page of any of these RSI based systems.... I can say through my own research that trading purely RSI would have been profitable for several years in a row with certain pairs... I may actually read some of the posts ...

Trading System Using Relative Strength-Part 2

It's a thinly traded pair (EURGBP) and it is a scalping EA. If a bank dealing desk trader was looking at FF and got the EA, he could put it in his own quant software. That would effect everyone's success.

Great EA. Anyone interested in forward testing?

For the record, I am not saying people aren't making money with forex. And I'm not saying edges don't exist.... The point was that a lot of the exact same ideas continue to recycle throughout these forums.... and hit the same brick walls each time. ...

We're all saying the same thing

@Maarten: Markets are too volatile for my liking now.

We're all saying the same thing

I actually like this post a lot.

We're all saying the same thing

Mike isn't it fair to say you just have to guess right when it is raining pips like it is now So many stop and reverses on low timeframes You talk of risk management... Small stops will hit often.... So maybe you can shed some light on the idea ...

What a great market...

Hey Mike High volatility is a two edged sword. Lots of uncertainty. And you always have to pick your direction.... pain can be twice as painful. So those raking in huge profits, kudos.

What a great market...

Steve, I think we should ask the critical question: What is causing the volatility? And I think the answer is pure uncertainty. If this is the case, IMHO it is better to sit on the sidelines. Why? Your analysis (whatever it may be) will lose its ...

agreed

What a great market...

Steve, I should have said this sooner. The past three weeks have literally murdered all my profits.... so I feel your pain. I think you should consider an ATR on a timeframe of your choice as a filter to not enter trades. I'm sure there are "normal" ...

Did somebody actually make a pip here after all these posts on this gargantuan thread? Sorry to sound cynical, but MACD is nothing more than the divergance of two moving averages.... so you are really trading MAs.... Okay, so now that I've stuck my ...

4 Hour Strategy (MACD)

A pillar at FF has fallen! Well, things like this happen.... you'll get a new job, and get a new investor... I'm sure the thread will come back to life soon enough. Good luck, brother!

Until then, the software just waits for the ATR to cool off....

Is This My Holy Grail EA :D

Even Hotspot closed with a 13 pip spread today.

I heard that Hotspot accounts are government insured. I don't know the specifics.

Our brokers segreated customer accounts protected by FDIC or any other entity?

ATR is a measure of volatility and stockcharts.com has a better description of it that i can put together here. I like it because it shows the average range of a pair over the past X intervals. For me, I like the hourly because I trade the hourly. ...

Is This My Holy Grail EA :D

Hold on.... Let me check my charts..... Hourly bounce? No.... 4 Hour Bounce? No.... Daily Bounce? Weekly? Monthly? No.... Decade are Century charts are bouncing in opposite direction.... at least I one of them is right, so fibs do work....

Fibonacci does work?

Hi I'm hopping on the end of the discussion here, but.... what would be really interesting is to find every type of grid that would have been profitable with an automated backtest.... then set up the new grid to bet against the patterns that don't ...

100% Win Math Grid Ea

Bob I'm on the sidelines with you. My filter is an ATR(48) > 0.0040 EURUSD hourly. If it goes above 0.004, I stay out. I find these markets just self correcting with all the dollar news.... they should settle down once a clear future begins to ...

Is This My Holy Grail EA :D

Hi. Yeah, I can't tell if you are being sarcastic either. The "armchair musings" are more than just trolling.... I have a vested financial interest in the EURUSD's behavior..... my hope is that the ATR goes back to normal.... we are seeing ...
