No, it isn't ! That Thread is about Dean Malone with some stuff about Ronnie. Neither of which traded for the big institutions. That thread ends in 2012 . Ray only contacted Compass in 2014. Before making any judgement, look at some of the ...

I wonder why it is that you don't appear to trade the news the way that the Institutions and (ex-) Floor traders do? I traded the GU on the UK Manufacturing PMI this morning. I traded it long for 15 pips (an Undercooked trade i.e price not ...

So you are probably wondering if All news releases can be traded like that? All I can say to that is not by me they can't. For me to trade a news release I need a nice uncomplicated release (not too many others out at the same time). I need one that ...

I just got an email from Carlos Diaz (of Foresight FX ) about whether it is a good idea to trade News Releases. Of course he says no it isn't. But he obviously knows crap about how the Institutions trade News Releases (or even how the ex-Floor ...

If you were already in a trade when the news hit and your stop loss got slipped - tough. If you were in a trade with a 'mental stop loss' - then YOU are mental! If you entered after the SNB, then don't worry, re-fund your account and trade directly ...

Ish, I think you are heading in the wrong direction if you are scalping 'The Pattern'. I don't know how long you have been studying it, nor how intensely, but it takes time to see these thinks in real-time. I took SMs course (online) in May2011 and ...

@Ishtana. Steve oversimplifies in his teaching, there is nothing in trading that works all the time. He was just trying to highlight the most probable patterns. Everyone is different and sees things slightly differently. I am hopeless at level ...

UK PMIs are released at 9:28 am UK time. Forex Factory and other Financial web sites say 9:30 because they usually get the data at that time, since just a few new channels release it before 9:30. If this was released at 9:27:30 then that was a ...

Hi Ishtana, I couldn't stop myself from commenting (in Blue above). BTMM is not teaching Gartleys. They are using the indicator (ZUP) as an alert. For me, I don't see the point of that - unless you need an indicator to tell you what you can already ...

Hi Msepf77, With Renkos, nearly all scripts/EAs do not include a set price value at which to start calculating the blocks. Thus you can get differences in Renko charts for the same Broker, both with different Renko scripts/EAs and even if you just ...
