Hey there, Oanda's 0.9 pip spread is actually a very very good deal for <25K accounts. Mainly because it is usually fixed during peak trading times. Spreads are usually the same on good ecns, ie 0.1-0.7. But it is the commissions that actually make ...

4% A Day Forever

You guys should really look at ninjatrader if you want to trade below 5M charts. You have the flexibilty to go all the way down to 1tick/second charts. You can use gain feed free, so no extra charge. Only time I see the benefit of using oanda charts ...

4% A Day Forever

Asian session, eur/usd, so long as the the move is not a strong trend move, if price is above daily pivot, place a buy at dp, tp 1pip. vice versa for shorts. Won't go into sl as you are intent on fighting your way uphill. Take any $ amount that is ...

Help creating a 1 pip system!

Very nice explained Islander. I have learnt alot from your posts, and you are the main reason I switched to GU for scalping from EJ. Many thanks for taking the time and effort to explain your entries, and why you use the indicators you do use. ...

Many thanks for you reply HG. I shall study the charts and your comments and get back to you. Regards, K. BTW, I was not around nor am I familiar with twobuckchuck, but I do wish him a speedy recovery. When someone is injured, it is not just the ...

Money-Manager - which broker to use?

Hello HG, Many thanks for your detailed explaination. From everything I have read in this thread, it seems that when we sit down to trade, we are basically looking for a move to develop, for it to continue, and then looking for signs that the move ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

Hey Ninja, Thanks for the comments. I am so used to ninjatrader that I would prefer to stick to it. Having mt4 plus nt open does eat up a fair bit of cpu, so adding another platform might send it to the graveyard!! However, I shall have a look at ...

bringin sexy back - stochastics

Hey Ninja, Very nice charts, and well described. I still use the original setup to get bias for my entries (scalping). Your charts also look pretty nice. If I am not mistaken, those are NinjaTrader's charts? If so, then how did you manage to get all ...

bringin sexy back - stochastics

Hi Apocalpto. I started with EJ, went to EU, back to EJ and now am on GU. You are correct that GJ has a little more kick than EJ, in that if entry is correct, it gets to well past b/e relatively quickly, and when there is an overshoot in our ...

The JPY Pairs are the ones to scalp!

IB a big thumbs up!! — Agree with everything that apocalypto has said. Though it did take me a lot for than 3 days to figure things out. But since I am scalping, the only thing that I wanted to understand was booktrader. I think that their ...

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

Hello All, I have been reading the thread and the links to the articles and webpages intently, and trying to get a better understanding of vsa. I have a few questions, which I hope that the veterans will be kind to answer. As Dr. G, HiddenGap and ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

first post here — Hello All, I have been reading this thread for quite some time, and have only recently managed to get through all of it. I follow Islander and other's posts in the pivot points and psych level thread as well. It was ...

Trade Using VSA (Volume Spread Analysis)

I first came across renko charts from c4 and nitro. Their simplicity and ability to take away directional confusion was fantastic. I am glad there is an independant thread for renko trading. I have been trying to trade pure renko, without most of ...

Trading Renko

ooo, looks like Edge is in one of those moods again. He will probably calm down later in the day, as he has in the past. There are two methods here, both based on the same concept - PA. But aren't most methods based on that? I have seen 4H methods ...

C4 Scalping

Looks like some ppl have looked over the hint that Edge gave in a few posts. Identify good co-relation PA, chose the best pair setting up, take 4lots on 1 for 5pips = 20 pips. Done for the day. If you are struggling with 20pips, try getting 5pips ...

C4 Scalping

Hello Frank, No doubt you have read the entire thread and each one of Edge's posts. Not sure why you have train in inverted commas, because Edge has been using the train analogy from day 1. Nothing new here. image K

C4 Scalping

Not sure why anyone serious about trading renko would not bother spending the measley 30euro or so to get the mt4 renko. But, if they still don't want to spend the money, and want to use renko, there are platforms that offer renko for free, Ninja ...

C4 Scalping

Finally, what an achievement I feel. Having managed to catch up to the end of the thread!!! Firstly, I would like to join the forces in requesting DXTrade to stay on. I realise you have already indicated you will be lurking around and helping, it is ...
