Daily and H4 to determine general trend direction...and H1 to time entries. I don't see the point in trading much lower time frames as it's harder to exploit short term trends...especially given corporate competition has access to more up to date ...

What timeframe do you use for trading?

Queen Elephantine Tibetan Monk chants (mostly to freak out the neighbours) Tinariwen (Jimi Hendrix in the Sahara) Hans Zimmer (Epic movie soundtracks) Two Steps from Hell (This one sometimes makes me take stupid "heroic" trades...) Yes, I have a ...

What kind of music you hear while you trade?

An anonymous poll won't ever be representative I'm afraid. You get most out of listening to people's advice, and then decide FOR YOURSELF if it makes sense. Something else random I noticed: Hunting tops and bottoms is like trying to catch a fly with ...

Are you a consistently profitable trader?

Started trading forex last summer on a demo account, went live end of January after being profitable every month since September. My first 2 months live were 2 of the best months I had so far, but I really forced myself to stick to my system...which ...

Are you a consistently profitable trader?

Thank you for all your efforts!! Tried a ton of systems since last summer, and this one works best for me. Using it on H1-D1 charts with great success. The only thing I add are Fibs and horizontal bars every 100 pips.

The single most profitable thing I learned? Learning when NOT to trade!! Still working on it, but it can save you hundreds of pops

What helped you the most to be profitable?

All I'm gonna say is this: Go "Inventors"!! Seems to be a pretty good questionnaire, it got me pretty well.

What personality makes a trader

I have to admit I switched systems. Still trading with Heikin Ashi candles though. I just didn't want to derail the thread by talking about another system. Using THV on 4hr charts with some extra indicators, and this works really well for me.

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

Loving this system on the 4hr charts...up another 67 pips today, and the day's not over yet Suuuuper relaxing to only have to look at charts like once every 2 hours and then let MPTM take over.

THV system, final edition

Just wanted to say thanks for this great system Using it one the 4hr charts and timing the perfect entry/exit on the 15min charts. Using a mix of Pipware's indicators and the originals. Works like a charm...

THV system, final edition

I work fulltime in real estate investment, and officially joined the top 1% this year...but in spirit, I'm with the 99%. It's not right that Wall Street uses politicians as sock puppets to rig the game, just like it's not right that the defence ...

We Are The 1%

I am...but no time to trade, end-of-year stress at work.

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

Paying close attention to pivots and Fibs makes this system really shine.

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

Sure Main chart screen: 2x Bollinger bands 1x Haiken Ashi smoothed 1x EMA (not really needed, just a visual reference) 1x regular candle sticks 1x Higher-high/lower-low/lower-high/higher-low indicator Side screen 1: 2x Stochiastics (14,3,5 and ...

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

Those are two different Bollinger bands They come in handy because price often bounces of them...makes it easier to pick good entries/exists.

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

For the ATR and RmUp/Dn stuff, check out the "Invictus" thread The setup is a bit of a mix between Invictus, a Haiken Ashi smoothed system I started looking into, and a chart setup I found in nanningbob's 4hr thread. All of these are good reads

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

So it seems HA smoothed candles DO work @ 15min if you combine it without an ATR/RmUp/Dn indicator, and a 15min/1hr/4hr MTF HA indicator Started using MPTM to manage my trades once entered and got a nice +27pips before passing out on the sofa ...

Trading with Heiken Ashi and Heiken Ashi smoothed - Hybrid

I'm such a donkey!! Took the middle of the night GBPUSD short for +27pips, and then fell asleep on the sofa. Woke up just now to find I totally overslept the nice subsequent move for way more pips Using MPTM to manage my trades by the way, so I'm ...
