Ben10 Trade The Trend

Last question for now . Is it fair the say that the half trend indicator is not a key part of you trading decision at all? I am not sure why you have included it.

Given you typically use the price break, do you also, as a general rule, use pending vs market orders - saves you checking every hour?

enochben Do you enter the trade on the price break of the market structure high or low; or is it on the candle close above/below the market structure high/low? Thanks

ChicagoRob The indicator is non-repainting. However when you are using a H4/H1 or any other timeframe combinations, the higher timeframe will always "calculate" until that timeframe ends (every 4 hours in this case). Its really no different than the ...

RS Yep, its definitely not a perfect world. I had 2 straddles on CAD GDP - 10 pip and 15 pip. The 10 pip buy trade got slipped by 2 pips and the 15 pip buy trade got slipped by 10 pips (so obviously no opposite sell orders around 1.2457). With ...

I didn't. Reason: NZ is still in the midst of electing a new government and it was very unlikely that the central bank would alter interest rates during this uncertain political environment. In addition, there was no expectation of a change. So for ...

Not exactly. Slippage can occur at the entry and exit of a trade. You can get positive slippage (e.g. the trade exit is executed at a better price than the TP price requested). I have yet to see a positive spread The reason for slippage is ...

jdieieh Some of us have looked at the last few minutes as a indicator of direction. The hypothesis is that in some countries there is limited provisioning of the news ahead of the official announcement. Of course in some countries there is suspicion ...

Dorst My advice would be to start with straddle trading on news events that will only go in one direction by 20+ pips (you don't have to worry about which direction). Obtain the Fast Economic News email (its free) if you don't know which those are. ...

Dorst I used a straddle trade on this type of news release - achieved the same result as Rising Sun.

Don't cash back programs have a higher spread?

Can we really beat trading costs?

My suggestion would be to trade the higher timeframes - for example, H4 and above - where one trades less often (i.e. less commissions) and the commission is a smaller percent of pip/$ gains.

Can we really beat trading costs?

Inner 21 Yes the material on FF is open to all. However, at a minimum you should have given recognition to the Kelvinonw as the author of the indicator in your first post - that my friend is a common courtesy.

Guys, think about it. Why would anyone post "fake or demo" trades immediately after all the major news events for the last 3 years? Why would they be awake at all hours of the day and night to do it? Short answer is they wouldn't. They would only do ...

Andoseg, it depends what you use the moving average (s) for. Some people use 2 MAs (fast/slow) to not only indicate change in momentum (narrowing/widening) and change in trend (a cross), but also to indicate a zone between the MAs where you can ...
