Lessons Learned during System Development

Yes I'm thinking along similar lines...live account with Oanda and charts from IBFX. On IBFX my demo is still going after 30 days and I think you can recreate another quickly if it does from the MT platform as well.

OandA or Interbank FX for 1st live acct

LOL! This post is over 17 months old!!! I wonder if he's made his fortune yet!

I'm finding that I'm liking Oanda more and more nowadays. The charts are a bit primitive but I can use another feed anyhow. The findings you quoted, is that based on a report we can check out..?

Oanda platform driving me nuts!

trading with blinkers — where have you read that? i'm not saying you're wrong but i find them more reliable if they are built on price! my main gripe with a lot of these indicators is that since they are just functions of price they just lag ...

Congestion is just another term for price consolidation or ranging... Your chart and Narafa's show similar setups.

EURUSD

just my take...could be basing at your suggested level for congestion

EURUSD

on the weekly looks like its in congestion heading down...

EURUSD

Watch your back — Also if you trade less liquid pairs (non USD majors for instance) then you can have a similar problem. Even within the majors the EURUSD and USDJPY are the top two, with the GBPUSD close behind the Yen and the USDCHF a poor ...

Rules of the jungle for Newbies

It brings a smile to my face when you use the term "TradeVestor" cos I sometimes read it as *HIM WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED*. Is it just me having this problem?

Cash & Carry

Step by step worked example — Hi ES I've read your thread with interest and I think I understand the underlying concepts of what you do...its putting it into practice I'm not sure yet how to quite go about it. Have you done a step by step ...

20,000th view and counting! — congrats on breaking that milestone...are you #1 by now? ps: i think if you add up all the new posts in the chart factory as one post then it has already passed 10,000 and might catch your thread up over time!

merlin, i think your luck (or is that skill?) is in! — i think you could be right screaming from the roof tops that the US economy is set for lift off! first 30yr breaks on the daily and now the short dollar is dropping like a stone! i'll take ...

Central Banks Watch
