If you can trade, then you can trade anything. My favorite exotics are USD/MXN (peso) and USD/ZAR (South African rand). Your real question is if it is okay to find pairs with volatility since the majors are piling up on top of themselves. But, like ...

Is Trading high spread pairs worthwhile for short term trading?

Thanks. I remember seeing that video a few years ago. Yeah, the woman had problems pulling the trigger, but everyone else had problems winning trades, lol. While it is entertaining, the overall theme is negative. As far as I could tell, none of them ...

LFX Trading Proverbs

Proverb #12. Trade Managers pull triggers and dump losers. Do you suffer from hesitating to pull the trigger on trades? Do you hope losing trades will turn to your favor and so you hang on longer than you should? I read something today that made me ...

It has been a few years since I fixed my fisher, so I am just going off of memory if this is the only place to fix the code. It's a good start though. I am about 99% sure your fisher is not using the same math. It is easy to fix. Right click on it ...

Simple Systematic Double RSI/Fisher system- 1h-D Time Frames

I must also agree that the fisher looks wonderful in history, but repaints itself, especially at low settings like 10. At first, I tried to use Bollinger bands to compensate and enter only when the middle Bollinger line, or all the Bollinger lines ...

Their search engine also shows you every available option to buy for the next 2 years, I think, maybe longer. It is a really good tool, if it is still available, and you can afford it.

Best source for lists of most active stocks

When I traded stocks I used the Investools platform. To me, it is by far and beyond the best tool. It has many built in search engines that can find exactly what you are looking for. I have not used it for years now, but at that time, the results ...

The political news that day was the US government spying on friendly foreign governments. The stock market saw Apple drop. You did not provide the currency pair for your example, so specific reasons for the move up and down cannot be provided. If ...

Can someone explain this type of market movement?

You can smooth the indicator you are using by adding a moving average to it, say, 2 or 3 or?, and then change the color of the indicator to black, or None. It might be easier to use if it is not so choppy.

You can google for indicators you are looking for too. There are also sites that store hundreds of indicators you can download for free. Here is one moving average indicator with alerts. I don't use it, so not sure if it works in real time or not. ...

EMA Crossover Alert Indicator Needed

Personally I have never understood why anyone would use an indicator that shows divergence. To me, that means the indicator does not work properly. Why would you want to use a tool that head fakes you? If it says to sell, but it is not really saying ...

Perhaps, but I prefer the design of the diamonds over circles and the alert function. Really I only use them for mental stops.

Sorry, I missed your previous posts. Here is the SAR I use if it helps. file

Yeah, on smaller moving averages I used LWMA/SMA. After I posed the question I realized I could just multiply the smaller ma by 1.2 and get the size of the larger, duh. So, if you want to use a single ma, then why not use the average of the two? If ...

I know I trade better than most humans, and now I know I trade better than one machine Thanks again, but I respectfully disagree with your result. No problem though If you apply it to your chart, and observe it during active trading sessions, ...

I was only offering facts to counter the doom-and-gloom remarks. If you feel it is a losing proposition, why are you here? It is also common knowledge that negativity breeds negativity, therefore, it is also obvious you are not a winning trader ...

Real Reasons why Retail Traders lose money

Thank you for testing the PSAR settings I asked about. I have no idea why your result was so terrible. Those settings line up almost exactly with trend line breaks, so are loosely accurate. Oh well. They are still very good for placing trailing ...

Interesting, but not surprising about the SAR. I use settings Step 0.1, Maximum 1.0, Precision 7. Can you run those numbers and see what happens please?

What moving average indicator do you have that allows for decimal point settings? This information is fairly accurate. In the old days I used SMA/LWMA of the same period setting and it was pretty good.

I can save you a lot of time and trouble, but I imagine you think this is fun, so you decide. I built a custom EA several years ago that was capable of measuring crossovers between two moving averages, and two sets of moving averages. For instance, ...
