TheMonty Hall challenge : about 30 years ago I was tasked to explain why switching was the correct choice. I thought I did a good job, but one fellow - a mathematician (!) - refused to agree. So we simulated30 example tests, with & without the ...

I have been considering this since I joined this thread : and made several Live FDXM trades. But my trading style "enjoys" granularity, which FDAX 0.5 tick provides. I have a meeting near the German border this afternoon, so 3 hrs round trip on the ...

I have added -14 +2 ticks... all my 5 positive trades were stop-outs on retest of entry, which subsequently went to +20 or more. So I have a decision to make : no more stop to b/e+, or at least significantly modify ? I have to do something. Many ...

Malcesine is a great spot. At Garda, I love this place in Sirmione url . Even - in some ways, especially - in summer it tends to be uncrowded as families with kids naturally don't want to pay the entrance fees. I have stopped there for 24 hours ...

Bravo... ... and I am reminding myself not to be influenced by the positions of others (I passed on a couple of excellent short signals); so far -14 +0 +4 +1 +2 = -7 (all longs, the last 3 good winners if I had held... ). Nothing wrong with ...

image Looking at a 20 tick chart, the orange arrow line is my stop level (3 ticks above the swing low) & the chart shows the stop triggered on that red bar. The next green bar which has a 1 tick gap open has exactly the same timestamp as the prior ...

Watching the market with a nice hot cup of tea at my side, I liked the setup and went short 12556; my experimental stop management now automatically tightens the stop right up when +23 ticks is reached to try to "conserve" a 20 tick gain and duly ...

BCU - the thing on this thread seems to be : Mr Magoo posts charts that look like they were made by an alien (indecipherable to me), but B trades like an alien (also indecipherable to me). It makes this thread a fascinating place to be

Nice track & vid In 2003, ex-wifey, daughter & I so nearly moved to Byron Bay (we have many friends there). In the end, a big part of choosing not to leave Europe was that both our mothers were still alive at that time and we felt it was too ...

However you boys are counting, these are consistently stellar results, so bravo & please keep sharing... and I am assuming by "pips" - a cash FX unit - like B you mean "points", not "ticks" (2 ticks to 1 FDAX point; tick and point size of FDXM are ...
