Is anyone here earning a living, just with forex trading?

2 Trades on 10s and 8 months off. — This is very true. But the one hour is a different animal. When I first started reading here at FF, was about the time the "Bunnygirl Cross" was all the rage. Not that I ever used the system but one piece of ...

Is a candle that opens and closes at the same price bullish, bearish, or neutral?

Unwanted spikes — No1 It looks like a bad glitch on your data feed. I have an IBFX account and it closed as normal. The best way to fix it for now is to go into TOOLS/HISTORY CENTRE, Double click on EURUSD, then Double click DAILY, In the ...

"Steviets Live Trades" thread has been running for three and a half years, at one stage he traded a system that had a 1000 pip stop and a 50 pip take profit. I do'nt see a problem with a 500 pip draw down, it's not nice by any means, but if you ...

The final Holy Grail

The "Wiggles are coming" — Boss Euro/Usd chart. Some observations. The downsloping trendline from 2008 is playing a major role of support. It seems like every time price touches it, the market thinks it's the bottom, as seen by the ...

LOL, just my twisted sense of logic workin' overtime. It seems like the Euro likes to clean house before the week finishes, the last time it did that was 16th-20th Feb 2009, when it gaped down about 85 on the Monday open, and closed it in ...

I'm in trouble with the boss! — hcristea, if you are interested in Gann stuff, you can go to Forums and do a thread search for 'Gann take profit levels', it's just a few lines of code that works out the square root of price. Like Soso said, ...
