Cable Update (GBPUSD)

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

In an insane world it makes perfect sense!

The Winning Trading Psychology - sure way for consistent profits

I can't remember how far back you can go, but you can go a long way back on EUR/USD and GBPUSD on Metatrader, you have to fiddle and download and switch timeframes if I remember right, I do remember running a 10 year test on an EA I'd written so ...

Where to get USD historical data

The answer is effectively yes you can, but how you can do it depends on your broker, you will need to have sub accounts normally I would suspect, but why on earth would you want to do such a thing is beyond me.

Multiple orders (hedging) on the same currency?

I can't really help, I just remember looking for some historical data and came to the conclusion that you can't go that far back - I know it's pre big bang in UK, and probably about the same in the states.

Where to get USD historical data

2 % a day is far from outrageous, I try and average about 1%, even 5% is believable to me, I used to have days where you'd get a 10% return, but now I only trade 6 - 10 hours a week.

The Magic of Compounding

I used the NLP tapping technique to great effect.

The Winning Trading Psychology - sure way for consistent profits

I agree, nothing to loose, 'signed' the petition, the more the merrier, I hope the urban mythsayers are happy now, but I won't be loosing sleep about it.

10:1 Leverage Have Your Say (Offical Petition)

Ah yes, spent a lot of time developing EAs, I stopped when I designed one that was indeed quite simple and showed a profit over about 10 years with a most amazingly smooth profit line, I think from something like 2000 to 2008 and then all of a ...

Back testing...is it a waste of time?

I can't help but think that this 10:1 leverage is a hoax, a bit like the one about not having stop loss last year sometime.

10:1 Leverage Have Your Say (Offical Petition)

Just another indicator — Indicators are exactly what it says on the tin, they indicate to you in summary the state of the market and candlesticks are no different it's just another way of summarising what the price has been doing. Just ...

Candles are arbitrary

15 PIPS a week — I've attached a spreadsheet so that we can see exactly what's possible, jzw is bang on, consistency and compounding, the thing with getting consistency is it takes all the stress out of it. The spreadsheet is based on a 50:1 ...

Realistic Account Growth?

I see that the 'if only' problem is creeping into this system, I used to do it all the time, I'd start off with something simple then would had to add something e.g. only trade the signals after one more confirmation, then that keeps you out of too ...

Scalping the EUR/GBP effectively - Forturama

Compounding is key to more profits, a 4% increase on 4% on 4% is one heck of a lot more than 2% on 2% on 2% etc. yes risk is important just as money management is, but I think that's another thread just as how much time you spend trading, if I spend ...

Realistic Account Growth?

Yes, 29% - that's good, I think anything up to 100% is possible, but after 50% you are really pushing it, if you can't make 15%+ a month, you are doing something wrong.
