So I doubled a DEMO, now I have half of my LIVE deposit.

Dude, Stop or cloes the mini account mate. The first step for you there is to get a micro or smaller account. Really! You've already said it your self... "Now, let's just say I have $500 left in the account. Taking 2% of that 500 would give me, hmm, ...

You must be one bored individual Jamie12.

If you mean "what are the charts based on?" it can depend on your trading platform. On some you can change which is used . Usually it's the "Bid" or sell price. If you mean what is the price in general, it's got a few answers depending on whether ...

Price on charts vs. Bid and Ask price

Heh heh. Me too. Except I'm always looking for the rewind button. : I've slowly progressed to those colours and line styles. Have Been trying to keep the important information there without feeling cluttered. Even the colour of my fibs was chosen ...

Best color combinations for charts

LOL. I was just watching the Tee-Vee and looked back at the screen and went to change the time-frame on my posting. All together now... "...DUMB ASSE!!!"

Best color combinations for charts

I find myself changing schemes depending on what information I'm looking for. But this is my favourite scheme...

Best color combinations for charts

And the other way too. Since even using 1 minute data does not have all the realtime ticks, MT4 guestimates what ask/bid prices may have been available at any particular time. A system could possibly be MORE profitable. What may have been a long ...

MetaTrader BackTesting, Reliable or Not??

Don't worry pi diddy, you'll get better at that as time goes on. If it's fear that's getting in the way then a good way to get around your problem there is to take half your position in profit and set the other half's stop-loss to breakeven. This ...

Bagovino Method

You do this? Wicked!! Seen one or two in my home area over the past couple of years, but man, when I was in the U.S.A a couple of years ago they were everywhere down the West Coast. Just above Malibu there was a whole "squadron" at one point. Looks ...

Anyone Use Fibonacci?

Oh yeah!! I think anyone here who has any reasonable amount of programming time in general would be wary of live update. (as Akuma aludes to). New versions of any program scare me. Especilly when a program gets updated as much as MT4 seems to be. ...

Build 196 frequent crashes...

I Agree! It's awesome! Geesh.... some animators are talented. I like Dials analogy. LOL

Build 196 frequent crashes...

Yeah, sounds scary at first. But I think what JodyOng was wanting was to be able to trade a pair that will give him the smallest hit to his/her account. And that's the idea isn't it? . Keeping risk to a minimum. Armed with the knowledge everyone ...

Cheapest Pair To Trade

Was playing earlier today. I thought I'd get more done on this tonight, but here's a start. It's not at all complete but actually works as an EA. Just has no trade management code (stops, trailings , take profits etc) So is not profitable. Figured ...

MT4 EA Range Breakout request.

Micro not mini ...Don't forget micro. Not all brokers offer them. Even experienced traders can benifit from the extra granularity and control of position size you can get from it. It has little to do with even being a beginner. ...

Cheapest Pair To Trade

Dude, check out the James16 Chart thread for one! Anyway, lots of us here use fibs.

Anyone Use Fibonacci?

Listen to the above posts. Open a micro account, or better. (better than a mini) It allows better granularity. With $5k you would be able to trade like you had $500k and a standard lot account. With less stress. Allowing you to keep one aspect of ...

MT4 EA Range Breakout request.

Hey, don't feel cheesey. Think of it as a group project. You'll find a few different approaches to coding something like this. And besides, there are a few MQL quirks that will be easier to get around with more minds working on it.
