How do you indentify trend?

What can I say? I got too many requests to come back. Wattawatta, why so hateful? You are about the nastiest person on this forum. Sorry to disappoint, but I won't be engaging in these childish disputes with you anymore.

Admit it - your profits are based on luck

Well, some people will call randomness and chance luck.... apparently others won't I'm a bit curious to how you do your analysis. Is it based on fundamentals, technical analysis, or both? (let's not rule out astrology )

Admit it - your profits are based on luck

Are you saying that it is possible to analyse something with 100% accuracy? That no outside events can trump your analysis and overturn what you expect? In forex, I think that the players and information are so far removed from our grasp, that our ...

5 decimal places in MT4? 5 secs timeframe in MT4

Admit it - your profits are based on luck

Tonight I discovered that kernal32.dll has some environment variable getter and setters built into it. So (in theory) I can import kernal32.dll into my MQ4 code, and then call those functions. I am worried about it returning a pointer to an array of ...
