Good question! You exactly got to the heart of the matter. If you don't understand what the past means to the trade you're about to take, or if you don't know how to analyze the information from the past, then no, you really don't need it (you waste ...

Do you need to see the past to trade profitably?

Merry Christmas fti, and to all that post here. Glad everyone has survived 2020, and let's work hard to make 2021 a better year in a better world! God Bless You All!

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Just saw your thread...well done!

Price reaction to major S/R /TLs and entering on LTFs

Hi fti, hope you are well these days as we approach Christmas season. Next three or four years could be very dangerous for the world. Better to walk away from doing business with China than to buckle under to them. But the world seems wobbly as the ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

If you have basic trading skills (eg, you understand the market, know when to be long, short, and flat, etc) then "hedging" is a technique that can be a helpful tool (see MZ). If you don't have basic trading skills, it won't help. If you fake your ...

Just learned about hedging, does anyone use it for scalping?

What you and I fail to understand is that with "hedging" we will never experience a loss, ever. I've read a few of these guys talk about how the guys with 10 years on FF can't grasp the simplicity and elegance of this new approach. it's funny, ...

I've had an interesting 24 hours here. For one guy here: 1+1= 6 2+2= 8 3+3= 12 4+4= -22 Then, later in the day: 1+1= 2 2+2= 4 3+4= 6 4+4= 8. Math for some needs to be reworked to fit the narrative. For some.

I've been on my meds the last few days. Sorry. A few of these posers are feeling picked on this morning. Fucking guys deposit their lunch money in an account and I waste my time listening to their bullshit. Fucking meds...

This guy is "trading" with $500 in his account, and he can't keep his story straight. I'm out of here.

Yeah, things are magically changing all over the place. You updated post 586 with the spreadsheet. Your post 590 showed the positions from trading today, and showed .59 from GJ trading today. All the other claims about 5 days of trading , making 43 ...

My question was the result of reading your post #523. You started your post by assuming that traders that use stops lose, resulting in falling balances while somehow benefiting brokers. Then, you state that "hedging" results in profits. Never ...

Let me help you with something. Were I to assume something, i would make a statement. Instead, I asked a question. As for how you trade, I have no idea and don't care how you trade. The point of my question is, if you (that is, anyone reading the ...

No, does your broker allow you to trade with negative equity?

Just learned about hedging, does anyone use it for scalping?

I'm trying to reconcile your chart that stated you earned 10% gain on the GJ basket. From your latest post, you made 10% gain trading on $.10 per pip. So the mystery deepens. The chart shows one thing but the spreadsheet another. So you made 10% on ...

What happened to the claim that you closed this "hedged" basket with a 10% gain? Did you re-think that? You claimed that your "hedged" basket was in a loss, but then, as the GBP crosses popped lower, you closed with a 10% profit. Now, you say that ...

Post #566, you said you never close a trade in a loss. I know, it becomes difficult to keep the shit you generate all in order. I never guess. To suggest that I guess is a clear indication that youve failed to review my journal. That's okay, but ...

Now, wait a minute. You stated that all your trades were negative, but after the big, unexpected FA hit the GBP, you closed all positions with a +10% gain. So, at some point, you went net short. You closed your negative buys, caught the wave down ...

I'm all aflutter that you'd go back and view my history! I'm feeling kinda tingly, in a naughty way, that you're took interest in little 'ol me! Please feel free to read through my journal where I have documented my trading. I did a live trading ...

Why don't you call your broker and ask the same question. You're the guy who couldn't find his trading ass with a flashlight. Do you even understand the question?

Just learned about hedging, does anyone use it for scalping?

Wow, this discussion has gone to hell. How do I know that you guys are shit traders? Your discussion is on "hedging" a losing trade. You are thinking about losses, because you are losing. If you could trade, your focus would be on something else. ...
