Ha! I want to put my two cents here: 1) Who is the broker with floating spreads? I'd like to research them. Be careful.... a floating spread does not mean "Non dealing desk" Case and point: FXLQ had a floating spread, but still had a dealing desk.2) ...

Why floating spread is better then fixed

TEB, Sorry if my previous posts sounded negative.... thanks for sharing your observations.... they have some merit. Regards, Tom

I mean, what is the reason to enter the trade. There is nothing stopping this strategy from losing 50 times in a row... Contrary to popular belief, MAs are not "magnets" for price.... half of the time the price is the magnet to the MA...

Doesn't take much bad luck at all to bankrupt an account with old Martingale....

Is Martingale really dangerous?

Where is the edge with this system?

Pin bar on the weekly.... a gamble to try to catch it early, but definitely could be in the making.

The problem I've always wrestled with (when pyramiding) is that although the stop tightens, the likelyhood of getting "bumped" out of trades during small corrections escalates. That is, trading "straight up" with no pyramid, your stop is always far ...

Pascal's Triangle as MM

What would be really cool is if your NN could predict COT data based on moving averages.... In other words, you train it with COT and MA over several years, and then see if the NN can guess the COT changes based on MAs. That would let you know the ...

Thanks for the input. I am training a NN as we speak! I am thinking weekly COT data (and whatever fundamentals I can supply) would be good inputs.... Unemployment, interest rates, etc....

Not true... Suppose you have M1 data back to 2005.... then D1 data back to 2001.... The backtester will use D1 through 2005 and then switch to M1.... so your 2001-2005 is inaccurate. You are correct in M1 providing higher granularity of price action ...

Real quick: Using M1 is absolutely critical to getting accurate results..... Anything lower than 90% MQ will be unreliable.

What about a backtest using M1 data? Sure, it won't be perfect based on M5, but it will tell you if the majority of signals are where they need to be (by eyeballing the chart.)

Dude, my argument is simply this: A graduate degree puts you in an elite 3% of the population. Being relatively young (40) you will have that MBA title for the rest of your life. It's a credential that will give you advantages for years to come, ...
