I copied and paste the whole thing my spreadsheet, didn't bother to change it. The main thing I want reader to take on is the commission they charge. It's quite steep IMO. I didn't notice at first but when I did my report the numbers came up and I ...

+1. I don't recommend scalping for beginners. Way too much emotion and way too much leverage for beginners. E/U is rather erratic today, my only entry yielded 20 pips and that's it. Now I'm waiting for the big break on either side and enter ...

You can only parallel as much as your algorithm allows you to. If there's a lock somewhere, you still need to process that first before you can continue. It's hard writing good code, it's impossible writing good parallelized code. I know that, I've ...

Hey Carl, I think I know what's happening. What's your fav. TF? Switch to 1M to see if the spikes are still there. The spikes are caused by having 1 single trade @ a much lower/higher price and that causes the higher TF bar to be wrong. See my ...

I think that there would be difference, will do more reading on this. On topic, it seems the daily pivot won't be tested for a while. I'll put a sell limit and just go to bed instead. Cheers. EDIT: if Mr. OhBummer does resign, I'll buy USD.

I'm a bit ignorant about how a candle is calculated. Let's take for example a 1H candle, the open is the the price @ 1.00AM (for example) and the close is at 2.00AM, 1 hr later, am I right? So when someone is saying a 1H candle closed above a ...

Price is testing 1.372, breakout to the south or reversal? Trades number has been average so far, 200-300 per min.

Had a sell limit @ 1.385 and have just exited with 120pips. Weekend starts early. Cheers guys. E/U may even go lower to 1.7 or 1.6 but I had enough. 80 pips yesterday, 120 pips today. EDIT: I feel bad for E/U, been shorting it like hell lately. ...

Got it. I over-leveraged sometimes ago and learned the hard way. Didn't get margin call but lost over 50% equity. Now I'm trading small enough to weather big drawdown (in case of wrong analysis, I'm still newbie after all) to get out at break even, ...

I don't believe in compounding interest that much. My account is still small so my fulltime work is my main income. If yours in around 20k+ then we're getting somewhere. Maybe if I can build mine to around 50k then I'll quit working and taking forex ...

Damn, I didn't notice there's a EUR news, there was over 1000 trades/min over here and the price spiked by 50 pips or something. I totally missed it. Is this the beginning of the end?
