No I'm stepping aside. If this business is about probabilities then for me they are much reduced around major news events - sometimes nothing happens, sometimes price moves around wildly and ends up where it started and sometimes it picks a ...

XAU/USD & XAG/USD - Gold & Silver Traders Thread

What I nightmare these people are - I have Firefox opening a window with there website in it several times a day. I'm not aware of having downloaded any of their indicators - I certainly haven't downloaded anything from their site so I assume I've ...

Well my last comment was mostly tongue in cheek - and I do accept that there is no map that can tell us when and where these events will happen - but knowing that they do happen is surely part of one's mental map of the markets - Naseem Taleb of ...

The hardest game in the world

Ah but all the best maps have places marked "Here be monsters" ;-)

The hardest game in the world

Well that's a wonderfully clever sounding statement but it seems both obvious and totally meaningless - of course the map is not the territory but does that imply that the map is of no use? Would you really want to go walking in the wilderness or ...

The hardest game in the world

These days I mostly agree with that - I've looked at lots of things, lots of tools, ideas, set-ups etc (although not indicators) but when you look closely they're all looking to identify where the major players are in the market. I'm still trading ...

That's a great statement - and IMHO very true

TRD

Well I'd be interested to know if you get a response. The more I look at markets the more suspicious I get of lines - I've been reading Adam H Grimes blog and he does an interesting experiment with support/resistance lines/levels url He's done ...

The One: Price Action and Reaction

Thanks for posting this stuff Steve - I'm enjoying reading the thread

It's the unkown points that concerns me - I think ML are powerful as a way of measuring the market - we know that price should reach the ML of a ML set drawn off 3 alternating pivots - that's a powerful piece of information - (I particularly like ...

The One: Price Action and Reaction

I've never actually thought about it - do you have any ideas? One of the things I like about median lines is that there are objective rules about how they're drawn - of course knowing when one has a valid c pivot is an issue but the rules are still ...

The One: Price Action and Reaction

No - not that i remember

The One: Price Action and Reaction

The most shocking thing about this is this "In the four years combined, a total of 13,224 customers experienced aggregate losses of nearly $220 million (175 million), with the remaining 1,575 customers earning a combined $17.51 million (13.8 ...

Forex as a Future?

Yes I know about the MT4 plug-in and I know many people complain about brokers doing underhand things - but I don't think its that targeted - I believe FXCM have just been fined for using asymettrical slippage - i.e. taking advantage of slippage ...

Forex as a Future?

There's a thought - find non random patterns to exploit I've always been hugely suspicious of the idea of brokers targeting individual clients - brokers doing underhand things to level out their books a bit is entirely plausible - but even then it ...

Forex as a Future?

Hi Liemo Just an observation but you were buying at the top of a swing - price had run up 40 points and stalled - what suggested to you that this was a place to buy this?

Ratios & Harmonics: a Different Way to Trade

Interesting charts Anton - thanks for sharing. I will try and post some charts here - I think this sort of careful analysis would be a really good practice for me. B.

Reading price bar by bar and identifying supply/demand levels

Glad its not just me ;-)

Andrews Pitchfork (Median Line)

Hi Anton - yes I was a bit to quick to place a trade I think. I didn't take a couple of trades late Weds afternoon uk time because of impending news announcements from the US. They would have been very profitable and I think I was not wanting to ...
