Troikaone1 replied Apr 4, 2010It is crazy for Boris to think that winning has everything to do with "luck". I hope that was just a joke on his part! FX is one of the most structured, non-random markets I have ever seen. The only time it goes crazy is just before "major" news or ...

Troikaone1 replied Apr 2, 2010I liken FX analysts to a coach on a sports team. They may know the Xs and Os. They know all the fancy language...they can tell you the history of the game; they just can't actually "play" the game. They may be Phil Jackson but they are not Michael ...

Troikaone1 replied Apr 2, 2010When you say things like "his predictions".....are you trying to make him out to be a sage or some type of mystic FX demi god? Would you hang on to his every word for your own trading livelihood. Would that be your strategy? He is a good analyst and ...

Troikaone1 replied Apr 2, 2010If he keeps missing his "calls" he won't be on TV much longer because the mystique will wear out (like all the rest). Why are people so excited about a guy who makes a wild guess with no money on the line? If the EURO had reached the target that he ...

Troikaone1 replied Apr 1, 2010I have a few edges. One is that I stuck with one indicator throughout my FX learning process until I thouroughly understood it forwards and backwards. My other edge is that I have a tremendous amount of resilency and selfconfidence that allowed me ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 30, 2010There is absolutely nothing random about FOREX. An experienced eye can see uniformity whereas an inexperienced eye will see randomness. If a new trader looks at a FOREX chart for the first time....everything will look completely random. Basically, ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 28, 2010Yes...yes I am a Chemical Engineer by profession; so I have used numbers most of my life. But I also have an edge in that I can flip charts around in my head and view them from a different perspective. FOREX has incredible mathematical accuracy when ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 28, 2010Ahhhh......there is definitely a mathematical model associated with FOREX charts....irrespective of the pair. I use mathematical models mainly to determine my exit points. It's right in the charts folks........look at the data in an unorthodox ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 28, 2010I will say this.....once I figured out how to trade the FOREX market.....I couldn't believe how simple it was. It is extremely simple folks!! Waiting for the set ups is the most difficult thing to do once you figure out what is going on. It takes an ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 28, 2010There are no natural born traders out there. You have to have a level of patience that is off the charts for one thing. Also, one of the most difficult things in trading is knowing when and how to take a loss. A good loss is one where you followed ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 21, 2010To succeed in FOREX you must use an unorthodox approach. When will traders learn that indicators do not work? It's all about price action!! It really is.

Troikaone1 replied Mar 20, 2010I only "zoom out" as for as my current small timeframe allows. If you actively pay attention to the higher timeframes.....you are actually trading the higher timeframes. I hope to one day do that on a regular basis as part of my trading plan as I ...

Troikaone1 replied Mar 20, 2010In order to catch a 300 pip move you have to "see" an area of support/resistance area that may have occured...say...a couple of weeks ago. Don't get me wrong....in FOREX...there is always a possibility of a 300 pip move in a very short amount of ...
