I just saw the scariest thing ever within USD/JPY, 2017.10.26 00:55. There was a clear single algorithm at work in this 5 minute bar. Price went up and down between 113.680 and 113.688 at exactly 1 second interval, the whole 5 minutes! That's right, ...

Whether its stressful or not depends 90% on other elements in your life, not necessarily on the game itself. There is a reason why topnotch hedgefunds are aiming to have their employees at top mental health with meditations and the like. In my ...

Is Forex stressful?

If BOE's monetary policy is in favor of the pound, dont expect gbp/usd to reverse until 1.26500 +/- area. Charts currently show a huge spike potential.

What I wonder is if the accounts used in his videos are actuall live accounts. I honestly doubt it. Video editing the "demo" text into live seems too obvious and can be considered fraud if that account number is checked at his broker "PaxForex". I ...

Is this Real or Scam? (10k-92k)

Pepperstone is ok for higher amounts of deposit yes. They have special memberships/benefits for such amounts... However, the one thing that i do not like about Pepperstone is that they do not offer any kind of black swan protection. I would assume ...
