i know some of you have watched bad things while trading.

What kind of music you hear while you trade?

I strongly encourage the technical analysis. I like to use it with other weapons such as macro fundamentals. In my experiences, my broker keeps calling me to deposit more money when I trade using technical analysis on 5 minute chart. Help guys?

I'd steer away from Dukascopy. Not very professional in my experience, seized my account without my notice and ignored my email inquiry. My account was 4 years old and when I emailed them last month to check on it they simply didn't respond. Good ...

XAU/USD & XAG/USD - Gold & Silver Traders Thread

Youll have to take my word for it. I lost money consistently 2009-2013. 2014 monthly average is 11% so far, with April being the sole down month. So-so if you ask me, given the amt of leverage available in futures. I try to make one or two trades ...

Value has two halves...intrinsic value and perceived value. Intrinsic is the actual underlying value. The true value that analysts and economists try to figure out. Perceived value is the price that the market assigns any given asset, regardless of ...

200,000 in 6 months. Hmm... - Are you winning or losing? - Have you ever achieved triple digit returns within a year? - Have you been trading for more than 5 years? - Do you think volume is the most important indicator there is? If yes to all 4, you ...

$200,000 in 6 Months? What do you think about this challenge?

It is EVERYTHING. Spot volumes are inaccurate, use futures ie /6e, /6b, /6a, /6j, etc... Volume is the most widely distributed indicator there is, yet the least understood. I love how it works that way!

How useful is volume to a forex trader?

French data a non-event. Volatility at quarter-century lows...is anybody actually making money these past few days? I'm standing aside completely lost re EURUSD atm.
