You could try NinjaTrader, not a MT4 add-on though. I have used it for a while and it's pretty powerful. I have, however, not yet gotten down to achieving any level of sophistication with it. Cheers, dkc

gbpaud j style - bam? — Been watching this area since early October. 2 days ago: PBT&CA. Man, I was getting sweaty fingers waiting for the retrace & bounce (on demo, mind you). Moved stop to BE.

Thank you, Mike! Phew, that's about as much MM as my few-bit-processor can accommodate. The other stuff appears... demanding. Gotta say though, the many aspects of forex, you have to love them. Peel off a shell and discover yet another brush to ...

Just found another formula from diallist: True Leverage = Position Size / Account Size That would be 2,700,000 / 100,000 = 27 , right? Which in turn would be awfully high? Oh damn, I had hoped not having to worry about this since I'd leave the risk ...

Thanks Hunzul! Now, I came across diallist's True Leverage formula some time ago. If I shamelessly plug in the numbers the result seems to indicate I cocked this up: (LotSize * %Risk) / (StopSize * PipValue) = True Leverage (2,700,000 * 1%) / (30 ...

Margin Requirement — How do you guys manage to be in more than one trade at a time? Say you decide on a 30 pip SL with 1% risk. When I try to put on such a trade (see pic below), the "margin used" is close to the full account size. The SL ...

Don't worry about your method too much right now, imo. I don't know anything about your trading expertise, goals etc., but I think most people are best off trying to figure stuff out without pressure & analyze charts of their own. In my experience, ...

Hey MTC, I don't know about the beginning, but here's a very good chart that explains a lot: url From that post on, just read on in the thread - there's a lot more to come in those few pages until today. PF is the Private Forum ( url ). It is ...

usd hkd daily — "What a bloody mess is this chart", was my first and second (and third and ten minutes later) thought. I almost skipped it, but here it is. What do you guys think?

Jarroo, about the gold chart's LCS. I found this here: Does this apply here, just that it's "the lower of the two" (support), not higher (resistance)? So a monday bar's Open, if it gaps, can be used as the friday's Close? This is way over my head ...

Thanks Jarroo, for giving me the retry Did I get it now? The overall picture, at least, looks much better to me now without those protruding bars...

zar jpy — Tinkering around... Is the weekly chart to daily chart transition correct?

Thank you, Jarroo! Looks like it makes separating the wheat (bars) from the chaff (bars) easier.

Jarroo, you got me wrong. I was not trading on the M15. I was taking a daily BEOB. It went the anticipated direction first, then started to reverse. After crawling up more and more I went to M15 to look what was going on. The indicated non-PB just ...

aud jpy — Two things I learned from this trade. 1) In the entry in my trading journal, taken before the action, I marked the BEOB as "of moderate quality" and the confluence as "ample". Probably a good idea to pass on anything that my judgment ...

Now that you point me to it, yeah, seen it, but it was 20 hours or so earlier. Right now I can maybe remember a chart/setup for a couple hrs, definitely not overnight. Sorry! Maybe looking at lots of different charts all the time isn't so ...

Thanks a ton, Mike! That is very helpful, much appreciated! I see the PB + touching of the trendline now in the post before. I am willing to stick to daily and weekly TF indefinitely, not in a hurry

I find it quite funny how often people are commenting like that and I myself have not the slightest idea of what's going on, no kidding, makes me smile every time

Mike, sorry, I am not following you. Could you explain the trade, please? Why did you go short on that particular bar? After moving out of the wedge, there were others that touched on 1.60. There were also two bars before that went below the sell ...
