This is the only point I disagree with. Why should someone bother to show anyone her results? You can tell a serious trader by her first two-three comments on a forum quite reliably. P/L sheets can be faked like anything else. Wisdom that comes with ...

People who don't know why it works..

Thanks a lot. And btw, the fact that you started posting charts is extremely helpful. Although it was of educational value to try to apply what you said in words to charts, but still, the old saying about 1 picture = 100 words has something to it... ...

Thanks for this, Igrok, however, my question was of a more general nature: "what is the main diagonal, how do you determine it, and how do you use this information?". I referred to the term "main diagonal" you used. If it's too basic a question, ...

Igrok, in another thread you said: "For the moment Cable looks like being in a broadening triangle on hourly chart. If it turns into a diamond later on then the probability to see it gaining later in the day is higher because from such diamonds ...

How do you count the touches? I can see three already (March 14, April 9, April 10). BTW, today's touch of the channel border at 2.0130 was so exact, so beautiful... This sort of things makes me think God moves the market...

Igrok, You have repeatedly suggested not to unticipate things, but rather to wait for patterns to emerge. When you project a broadening triangle to turn into a diamond (which is still beyond my imagination...), does it have any practical ...

1. I use NOD32, it withstood the attacks alright. 2. These periodical several hours of FF-lessness showed me how addicted I am to FF... 3. People are asking about a good ***free*** antivirus program. Come on. For the price of a tiny stop-loss, ...

Same same. NOD32 identifies a variant of win32/TrojanDownloader.Ani.Gen when every page is opened.

Hi Mikhail, I've seen your journal only now - and I'm sorry to see that you discontinued your experiment. I hope you'll resume it and be successful in it. Just a comment on MM. I understand that you've opened up to 10 positions simultaneously ...

Journey to me pot of GOLD

Hi, Igrok. In your book, you are somewhat vague re. Fibonacci retracements. In one place (p. 46) you say they are "not useful for the trader". In another (p. 69), you recommend drawing and saving Fibonacci lines as part of daily preparatory routine. ...

Strange. I'm also using FXDD and MT4, but on my chart the day starts at 2100 GMT... Could have to do with daylight saving time in your/my country? I've messed up a couple of trades because of these recent clock changes...

Right. If I spend 9.5 hours a day staring at a monitor, I want the picture to please my eye!

Is MetaTrader worth the trouble?

If I understand the info at the a/m site correctly, the NZ session starts at 2200 GMT. So, what is more important (if at all) for your definition of the day opening: the end of NY or the beginning of Auckland?

Thank you. A related question. If I read the roadmap correctly, we'll reach 2.0000 on Cable within a couple of weeks (I vaguely remember you raising this possibility in another thread). Given the almost perfect correlation between GBPUSD and EURJPY ...

Igrok, I've opened a short position on EURJPY with a SL behind the year's peak. Meanwhile, the price has (a) formed a V-like pattern; (b) touched the 161.8% projection of the previous move; and (c) seems to finish forming a H&S (as far as I ...

In my (very) humble opinion, pure naked price action is tic-by-tic data. The moment you move from these raw data to bars/candles, to s/r lines, to PA formations - you are up several levels of abstraction. MAs are also some level of abstraction, not ...

Call me stupid - Indicator discovery

I never trade with a long-term aim and I never act according to anyone's specific advice. Just broke these two rules. A sign of trust, I guess If this works out, I'll donate half of the gain in Igrok's name to some worthy cause...

I just love it. Who said fx can't be fun? Thanks a lot, Igrok.

The logic is that as Cable can't go up any more, it should go down (if it goes anywhere), and as the Euro mimics the Cable, it's doomed to go south too?
