There is something to be said for the "hive-mind" idea. Lots of studies have shown that a large number of people, when asked a question collectively, are more likely to come up with the right answer than a large number of people asked the same ...

I've always been curious about this kind of thing. I have often demoed a whole "cloud" of random trades with 10-pip trailing stops or 5-pip limits, etc. without compelling results. The kinds of setups I actually use tend to run over several days. I ...

Info Marketing — Hello Orange, I haven't read your SRDC threads but I will soon, after I fix the problem I've been having reading long threads on FF. However, I think I can give you some general perspective on the various ways to market an ...

Damn, I just wrote a veritable Magna Carta reply, and it all got lost because this site is below par in how it handles session cookies and timeouts and stuff. I'll write it again, but basically I want to apologize for starting this discussion and ...

This is the first system I've seen that involves two of the same moving average except that one is applied to the open and one is applied to the close. The uniqueness might explain the effectiveness. I almost want to say that this technique is ...

Use MT4 for charting — Use MT4 for charting until it stops producing a feed and your broker keeps its feed going, such as weekends and holidays.

I've always thought that it's kind of silly for indicators and experts to be separate, since they're usually used the same way. It should be easier to convert MT4 indicators into experts and vice versa. Ideally there would be no difference, or there ...

No, it doesn't help. It hurts everyone. Every true entrepreneur knows that nothing is more important than credibility. You can even sacrifice your credit rating by going bankrupt, as long as you don't make false promises to current and potential ...

This only serves as evidence in favor of blindly following the trend versus attempting to stop losses. If this system is simply carrying positions on all major pairs in favor of the current trend, I don't think you need to look up past statistics to ...

Hah, I didn't notice that there's a tiny rating system at the bottom. This must be some kind of plug-in I voted for you.

BTW, the only position that would have been a loser if I had carried it from month to month would be the long on EURJPY. I would have made a lot more money on all the other pairs if I hadn't let them stop out. The negative $3000 on EURJPY more than ...

While waiting for VWB reversals, I got a whim to start a system on Collective2 that just runs with ...

I've never rated a thread. If it's important, I'll rate this thread highly. This is one of what I think of as "golden threads" like the james16 or VWB threads, where people reveal their vast experience.

I've been faked out several times already by apparent pin bars. The best one was GBPUSD on 5/1. It hit my stop almost 5 pips exactly below the pin bar and then shot up to my stoploss. That was annoying. Of course, now the reversal signs are getting ...

Yeah, I see several bounces off 111.13 but not the crazy stuff you're seeing. Data feed problem.

But no, CHF seems to be doing perfect bookkeeping.

Maybe someone knows about this. It all started when EURCHF crashed on April 27. GBPCHF corrected right away but not by enough. USDCHF and EURGBP took their time and might still be working on it. GBPUSD didn't even move a little. It should have ...

I made a note of this in this thread: url GBP, CHF, and EUR prices are totally out of whack. I think GBP's going down.

Isn't correcting the market kind of our job as traders? Won't traders that serve to correct the market win in the long run?
