Plutonite very interesting ideas. I think I will look into it more and give it a try when I get the chance (as I ussualy trade on m1). One thing though, maybe as a possible addition, why not bring some support levels into this as well ? Say if ...

Plutonite's Dynamic Trailing Stops

The "we're all saying the same thing" thread, the responses in the randomness thread, now this... tdion, admit it, you are depressed at least regarding forex, take a break, have some fun, enjoy your life and then maybe come back and try again, cool ...

Newbies go here...

Asked the same thing a week or two ago, really much needed stuff. Got no answer.

Forex feeds?

WHOAA !! When did that meeting end ?? Was it after the market close ??? I gotta increase my shorts pronto !

EURUSD

Let that be, more basic stuff like news related stuff ans some more that I won't mention but I've seen won't exist either. Of course you might say that when you know something is going to affect the market - then it's not random and otherwise it is, ...

Is the market random or not ?

Hi Strada, As someone testing a system using ma's myself I'm interested in knowing a bit more how you TP. I've watched all those nice big moves that sometimes follow but then I realized that catching them may not be worth it because they are few and ...

Why trade at the cross? Wait for the confirmation

Hmm... from what I've read several times in several places from several different sources who are supposed to know these things (and heard from a forex investment fund manager in a small free forex course we had on campus recently) - 90+% of ...

Is the market random or not ?

Open any chart including m1 and watch the candles. Would you say that the fact that at least half the time you'll ussualy have a sequence of candles, plus including their sizes as a variable, going in a certain direcion would be true if each candle ...

Short Term Trading is Quantum Physics

Yes. Depends. How big are the ma's, with a large ema/sma pair for example it might be true but for a small pair (like 15 for example) taking the 1-3 bars that open below ema and sma behind at positive angle already - is a much better idea because in ...

Why trade at the cross? Wait for the confirmation

Hi Matt, I suppose it depends a lot on how good your system really is. If it makes 50 trades and 35 (70%) are winners with an R:R of 1:1 or better then that's pretty "heavy" statistics in your favour already - considering aspecialy that it was an ...

How do you determine when a strategy is valid and profitable?

Yup, it changes for different TF and scale of course - the kind of moves you consider actual break-outs. Anyway, what's the argument ? Whoever considered a jump a bit above 59 as a sign to go long and aim for 1.6 gotta be crazy (no offense to anyone ...

Yours is bigger than mine I meant the one starting yesterday not last month Price currently testing lower line again..

EURUSD

That's a smaller channel, there's a bigger ascending triangle starting from the low at about 5756 with 3 lower touches and I'm guessing 5860 is about the upper line..

EURUSD

Aah... Hate my win:loss today..

EURUSD

Short from 799 to 733 against 821.

EURUSD

Hi Steven, Who knows... if it's of any help here try this: url Darn, my long's been stopped out..

EURUSD

I do of course , but break of previous high sound a bit optimistic.. Hope you put a trailing stop around 58..

EURUSD

Hmm.. you guys might wann move your stops a bit.. Like I said the up move is not over yet.. I'm long since 823 against 808 with target of mid 586.. Don't think it'll get above 880 though.

EURUSD

Everything is good to some extent.Technical is good for most, fundumentals are worth to know aspecialy for longer term traders. For short term traders like me it's about staying out of technical trades during the news and entering news related ...

EURUSD

No, but you should try decrease it to put you in much lesser risk. And NEVER risk more than about 5% per trade again (my max would be 3% on VERY special occasions) unless you become very good and have some money you can risk and don't care to loose. ...
