I didn't have a chance to look at the code yet, but are you sure that the numbers that go higher than 9 aren't the TD Countdown? I'll open the indicator up in MT4 when I get home, but I just thought I'd check. I do remember them being in a different ...

DeMark Indicators (ADVANCED)

Just throwing my uneducated 2 pips in here: I don't think win/loss ratio is that important compared to expectancy. Meaning you could have a scalping system that opens random positions with a take profit of 10 pips, and a stoploss of 2000. I'm sure ...

The Best Way To Choose Lot Size

While we're on the subject of his book, can I ask if the New Science of Technical Analysis is worth buying? I was thinking of buying it almost a year ago based on the stellar reviews, but upon looking at them closer, EVERY SINGLE REVIEW ON AMAZON, ...

Not to be a spelling Nazi, but it's Korean with a K, not a C.

Japenese Yen Takes Effect Of Corean Blasts

The article mentions this and says that because the system was originally developed for different markets, some of the filters might not come into play. This is an example as this was meant for instruments that gap up or down such as stocks.

TD Line Qualifiers and potential filters

I haven't taken a look at your EA, but if it uses the Zig-Zag indicator, it's physically impossible to trade it. The Zig-Zag indicator draws its lines retrospectively, meaning it draws them after they price movement has already happened. Therefore ...

Zig Zag Expert Advisor Problem

I don't know that I agree with the others entirely in that Forex is a much tougher game. I think it's a much different game. My trading experience with equities involved options. I also bought plain stocks, but that was investing and not trading... ...

unsuccessful stock trader can succeed in forex?

Nope. The whole thing behind the idea presented in the book is that you get margined out and forced to liquidate one of your positiosn on purpose. Basically you place small amounts of money in two accounts. As long as the trade bounces around in a ...

I read about that in a book too. Essentially it's a glorified straddle. You put say $250 in one account, $250 in another account, and take the same trade. When a definitive move occurs in one direction or another, the account that's on the losing ...

I don't think we're on the same page here. I was talking about a generic EA. Basically the EA would have a "hollow" function. You would hardcode your exit parameters into this function (to be re-evaluated each bar) such that it returns a "true" is ...

"Babysitter" EA?

My guess would be because for a long time BOJ's interest rate was 0%. It's at .25% right now, so it makes carry trades very profitable. Its economy is also growing quite nicely.

Why does the Yen trend so much????

Miscon- Thanks very much for doing this survey. I'm sure there are hundreds of people who just said "wow!". Anyways, to clarify what a previous poster was speaking of when they mentioned "fixed fraction", it's basically just risking a constant % of ...

Money Management vs. % of Success in Trading Systems

Sorry, when I said "real book" I meant "Trade Your Way to Financial Freedom".

Money Management books?

If you had to get only one to hold you off for a while, would you get the e-book or the actual book? I was going to get the ebook, then the actual book in a month or two, but seeing as how the ebook is rediculously expensive, I think I'm going to ...

Money Management books?

Sorry to hijack, but how well does MSA work with Forex? It says it's only compatible with Stocks and Futures. Do you just use the futures setting and set the value of each point to that of one pip? Sorry for the newbie question, but I've never ...
