Sounds like you cracked it then and I have studied your charts to confirm you have something valuable. But if this Riemann hypothesis really needed when we are clearly trading a Sine Wave, the maths of these take only four months to crack and just ...

I got into this game because I enjoy starring at a chart for a few hours a day, I must be strange? So if I am there, why not scalp for 40 to 60 pips every day and if that means scalping on M1 for a few pips a trade, so be it. Now don’t anyone think ...

You need to study not the ballistic action that goes both ways, only study the speed against the trend. So you are looking at reversal speed. Sometimes they need to tackle price on two to three candles to get their reversal wish. I was watching ...

Hi Mingary How fast can you blink. Manipulation occurs on order flow and best seen on the M1 chart. Most traders are looking at H1 / H4 to see it. They will see the result of the action but they will miss that crucial second. This is classic ...

Hi George Can I put my hand up and say I missed it, I stuffed up. Honestly I have no excuse because I follow this pair for hours along with a few other pairs and I was just not paying attention for some reason. I do keep notes on all my trades, ...

H BWilliam You wrote "that's why I have written umpteen times on this forum NEVER reverse a SPIKE" Mostly I would agree with your statement except when trading on the M1 chart. Here we are trading around the order flow price movement towards passive ...

Hi Mingary I don't think you get it. You don't need to trade "the real market" to make money but you do need to understand how the sharks manipulate the Retail Forex market. Once you learn their little tricks and see how they run stop pools, making ...

Hi Al Yes, I watched that move all evening but never took a trade. Of course I am going to tell you what you already know - RED NEWS just before it moved and the range at that point of the day was only around 40% I think. So over all the risk of ...

Hi Danger-Mouse Here is my 3 cents worth and how I see the market - Price expansion is restricted because the market needs to maintain pools of orders very close to current current order flow. So the act of keeping price with an consolidation area ...

Hi STrading I never said my equity was not at a decreased value, I said my account balance remains unchanged till I close trades. I use my equity as cheap credit to increase my account balance by adding additional trades to close a basket of trades ...

If you can win 90% of every trade that you enter, attempting to save those losing 10% seems very smart to me. Why are traders so quick to take the loss. It seems discussions on hedging provokes strong opinions amongst traders, probably deserves ...

What’s wrong with turning a losing position into a winning any not taking any loss? I think this strategy only works well if the original hedge is less than 20 pips and you can clear it the same trading day. I think hedges that roll over to the next ...

The purpose is solely for psychology reasons to obtain a winning BASKET on every single position I ever take. It enables me to be aggressive knowing I will never lose when I exit the market. Most times I will just attack the same hedge with ...

If there was one thing Nih98 said to me was place the hedge and leave the bloody thing alone, don't touch it. So now I am 15 pips in draw down but the equity balance still remains fixed. My goal now is to find another trade that I believe offers a ...

Hi Danger Mouse Work that problem out and success in this game is guaranteed. I wait for signs of exhaustion when price hits a "stop zone" and trade back through thin liquidity. However if price just keeps on going, I hedge around 15 pips. Then I ...

Hi xRedStaRx if I can have my 2 cents worth - great post by the way. I feel you are looking on the wrong timeframes to see and understand manipulation. I see it within the order flow, thats on passive orders at the core of the market. I understand ...
