Thanks for the links. The statement: "It is my job to figure out what on earth would cause Gold to go back to $400," does not mean that I believe Gold will go back to $400. That would be my job, if I thought stashing my capital in Gold for "safe ...

Scoobidoobi, It is called "Always-In" and it has been around as a methodology for quite a while. Your theory is creative and that is a very good thing. However, what happens if somewhere along the line the systems doesn't fail, but just starts to ...

Is Never closing any trade a good idea?

Funny you should say that. I have some Orville popping right now.

Bottom line, traders. If you are new to FX, then you need to cut your teeth. There is no need to deposit tons of money into a Bucket Shop to accomplish the task of cutting your teeth. You can cut teeth with no more than $1000 in a micro lot account ...

Is it possible to profitably trade with MT4 brokers?

I've traded on the FXCM platform before and I've noticed hanging platforms during high volatility periods. I've sat there and waiting (just like everyone else) for NFP announcements (just to name one of many) and had my finger on a HotKey that did ...

Is it possible to profitably trade with MT4 brokers?

Any landing you can walk away from is a good one (they say). But, I prefer to make as routine as and Drama-less as possible. Thanks!

Is it possible to profitably trade with MT4 brokers?

Without any question whatsoever, yes. LCG Fx Prime Services, if you can get on (starting account size, country of origin, new regulatory issued, etc.) would be an excellent choice. LCG will give you really good platform flexibility. Do your ...

GENERAL NOTE TO ALL Thanks for the private messages, folks. I don't want to start responding to them all because I won't ever get to post here in the thread if I do. But, I did read the messages and I hope that I have either answered all your ...

So, while I'm expecting 24-72 hours, I'm willing to wait it out. I'm on the cusp of needing a long range system to take positions in the market with, not day trade. The only time you need that kind of trading ability is when you have very large ...

Ah, I see. So, you are one of the "Thinkers" here on ForexFactory! You don't mind using your head creatively which is one of the hallmarks of someone who will ultimately improve their trading results long term. I like people who play around with ...

By now, the "How Do I" about B2i should be understood. So, I will now move to some other fundamentals that I have not covered. A GBPUSD 3hr B2i: image Notice the Fall Line. This is the inverse of what I posted about earlier today and what another ...

I messed that up when I was posting. The charts I'm looking at are 3 hours ahead of UTC. I did not convey that when I typed my correction, but UTC is based on atomic time and I believe includes Leap Seconds. So, it is supposed to be more accurate ...

Indicator Only Swing Update image Unfortunately, I forgot that I was working on a GBPUSD B2i in the other thread. So, I've already SEEN the price! That spoils the psychological effect I was shooting for but that's ok. I'll continue to play along. ...

Yes - I posted a response to this on page 8. The Sloped Target line by definition runs at an angle to the Horizontal Target line. However, it is a Regressive Target Line. That means that the Value of the trade decreases with Time, by definition. It ...

Yes, you can get as creative as you want on the time frames used with B2i. Just remember the bigger the frame of reference, the more time might be involved in the trade. I've been using a lot of H1 B2i on M1 charts just so that things happen more ...

Hello Lalu, No problem and thanks! Just place your Starting point on an Open price. It looks like that's the only thing missing. Yours are Hybrid B2i. That's fine. Also explore the Sloped Target Line by using the Diagonal Fall Line in a post by ...

Good question. After the last extreme point as been established (either the Highest High or the Lowest Low, depending on the configuration of the box), there is no better condition for B2i because the market has yet to revisit the Fall Line level ...

Trajectories as defined within the system I use are different. They are composed of Direction and Magnitude between price points within a stream of OHLC data. A trajectory is defined as a directional connection between two specific data points ...

I wish I could load a trade into a GNS530-like trading system and follow it like a GPS approach to LPV minimums, but I'm not that good a designer (yet). No. The four (4) sided structure will always have two angles that are identical because the ...
