For G0d's sake Blue. With all that Research And Expenses/Revenue Tracking S#it, it sure looks like your tryin' to turn this Vid Game into a Job.
Hmm.. overkill I suppose. But, I only fill in 6 blanks each day, the rest is calculated in the spreadsheet.

It's quite handy. For instance, today I was looking over the data and saw that if I had limited losing days to 2%, November would have been my first profitable month instead of December; Dec would have been considerably better also. I started that in January -- if I lose 2%, I quit trading.

I cant believe all the negative crap i have read on this thread about an unknown person willing to give, in his estimation, for free the particulars of a system that works for him. Shame on all of you who have posted negative remarks in here about John W.

John W. If i had a successfull winning system i think after reading this thread i would be very careful about sharing it with anyone in a thread.

Thanks John You are a better man than I.

Harrington,

Its not called "negative crap", its called "constructive criticism" it helps evolve the system for everyone's benefit, I believe John himself acknowledge and thanked everyone for their contribution whether for or against the system.

Sorry for the absence, but I've been devoting my time to the metals markets.
My opinion is that the metals are going to go MUCH higher, so I won't be involved in much currency trading, except maybe the usd/cad.
Scalping currency's for a few pips was ok in the past, but I think there's
important money to be made in the metals, plus I know their direction.

The only currency trade I like at the moment is a break of the trendline on usd/cad. Draw a trendline up from the bottom of 0.9050 and when price breaks that trendline, jump on it and hang on, it could drop hundreds of pips.

Study Johnw's method, it will teach you how to really understand how breakouts work and why they work, better than any other thread in FF, because you will view the breakout thru manipulation. Remember, the big banks manipulate the price of currency's constantly, so stay in tuned with that manipulation if you want to conserve your resources. Go with the big banks momentum plays, forget the rest...don't become a member of the 95%. GL

Here it is, the 30 pip stoploss is only a guide, use s/r levels as stops.

I can understand wanting to trade metals at the moment but why in the world would anyone virtually abandon a system with a 95%+ success rate?

One thing that's funny about this thread and others is the way people are quick to disregard someone else's opinion, thought process, trading strat, or ideas if they are different than the norm or theirs. One that really kills me is when someone tries to make 10-20 pips per trade it's considered scalping. For all you anti-scalpers (10-20 pip bashing folk), here's a lesson. There's more than 1 way to 100.
If you had 5 accounts, making 20 pips consistently that's 100 pips per trade.
If the pip value was $10 per pip, thats $1,000 per trade. Go Figure!

Note to Newbs.
It's exciting to read all the post here on FF of folks making hundreds of pips on a single trade. To be totally honest, any trade where you make profit and not lose money is a winning trade. Who set the mark to 100 or more pips is the standard? Find something that works for you, and exercise proper risk/ratio and you will be find. There is no 1 perfect system. Find what works for you and ride it until the wheels fall off!

P.S. Don't go out spending a lot of money on this system and that, books, classes, gurus, etc. Everything that you need to be successful can be found right here. You have to decipher between the BS to find it!

Hey DollaBill -

You hit the nail on the head! The underlying purpose of my posting this thread was to get traders to realize that to succeed in this market, you have to think. There are tons of vendors selling magic indicators, and crossover systems. I, too, bought them thinking that there has to be an automated system or indicator that will reliably signal trade entry (btw, damn few of the many systems I bought had ANY money management rules) for that elusive >80% win ratio. It wasn't until I abandoned that quest and focused on PA that I started being consistently profitable. I am now in my sixth month of >10% per month returns. In fact, I have stopped trading for this month (Rule #1: Greed kills).

As for the many that have PM'd me for training, I will be available after April 1. One of my students abandoned trading, and the other just opened his first live account. As for "training", I will not being revealing much beyond that which is written in this thread.

Here is why in general most indicators don't work. As small traders (is anyone here actually a large bank?), we are primarily followers. We follow trends, and in my case, price movement (aka price action). When the "big dogs" trade, if they are not using the exact same indicator that you are, they don't see the corresponding entry signal, and subsequently, they don't trade. If the strong hands aren't using your system or indicator, you're alone in your trade. You could get lucky and the strong hands might move the market in your favor, but this kind of trading is gambling. What do the strong hands see when they look at a chart? Pivots? Fibo's? SMA's, EMA's, ADX, MACD?, etc, etc?

One thing I know for sure is that they see price. And since I don't personally know any "big dogs", I have no idea what else they see.
Chance favors the prepared

Well done

...but but but Michael Douglas said in WS that greed is good!

I'm still up for a discussion of what you're doing in detail in skype or chat etc eventually whenever you got time in April, just let me know.
I doubt much will come as a surprise(a lot of the things look/sound very familiar or almost identical due to their relation to Jim's PA), but the specifics of what you do different might be a very interesting addon to what I'm doing as it is =)
Trust price. Know yourself.
