I am happy that the time spend accomplished something. I usually stay away from such kind of conversation as they usually always turn out the same but I got into the swingspot / quantum method over a year ago and pretty much liked the idea. If we ...

Quantum London Trading

EDIT: I selected the wrong quote I am talking about the Kiosotto indicator attached above. If an indicator looks to good to be true it usually repaints or has some flaws in it's logic. If I am not mistaken the indicator looks 1 bar into the future ...

Quantum London Trading

Your statement is just not true. People can claim a lot on the internet and if being asked how many pips or percent they made will lead to a lot of them exaggerating. I have been there before. But it's not up to me to prove to you how much money I ...

Is Forex trading worth it? If so, why?

Oanda's execution policy states that for trades above 100k they can charge an additional pip due to higher clearing cost. I know that this is a pretty specific example but maybe it's still worth mentioning.

Trading size in FX

And once again please tell me what the advantage of this hedge is compared to just closing the position during the correction and open it later on? You are only paying the broker while gaining nothing in return and you actually have an increased ...

Hedging is it really useful?

But in what possible scenario is this useful? If you want to enter into the trade later again why don't you just open it at the time you want to be in that position again? But what is the upside on having the position at 1.5 and 1.6 open at the same ...

Hedging is it really useful?

After a good trade I usually go outside and exercise to calm down again

Relaxing the heart and mind while trading

I don't want to be relaxed during the time I enter a trade, rather being wide awake to comprehend everything. While performing side tasks like doing research I like to listen to what ever kind of music I currently enjoy. If trades come up I usually ...

Relaxing the heart and mind while trading

But you still need to know it to get an edge. The problem with this type of trading is that you are still entering a directional bet! This can be best compared with pairs trading in which you usually bet on the mean return of 2 financial ...

Red News Hedge Trading + EA

Same lot size: why? If one trade is more promising than another why shouldn't I put on more risk? Or the other way around if I am not entirely sure that this trade will work out (but it still has a positive expectancy) shouldn't I risk a smaller ...

You are able to feetch the ChartID of every chart opened and the function url takes the id as parameter so you are likely able to manipulate every charts you want to. You have to see if the ea gets disabled as I have not tried it out but it's the ...

Shutting down MT4 on order close

Isn't this a bit too much of an overkill? You could also iterate over every chart and change the symbol/time frame back and forth and ea trading will be disabled if set correctly.

Shutting down MT4 on order close

url or url . The problem with this is that you have to call it on every chart an EA is attached to.

Shutting down MT4 on order close

Thank you for the interesting information. I thought that world production would be reflected more strongly in the future price, at least short term when production numbers get released. Do you know if there are monthly or yearly data released by ...

Only Gold!

As you are experienced with gold trading can you give me a hint if there are any scheduled gold specific news that strongly affect the underlying price upon release? For oil and gas we have the gas storage and the oil inventories respectively. How ...

Only Gold!

As you all have a much greater experience trading gold than I do I would like to know if there are any inventory or production reports that strongly influence the gold price. For oil and gas we got the weekly us inventories that are followed by ...

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

3. Don't trade in trending markets. I have been at a trading convention last week and gathered some insight into the profitability numbers of fxcm's client base which clearly indicate that the probability of a trade closing in positive is inversely ...

This is exactly the same as saying only enter in a trade if it's going to be a winner.

Does buy low sell high apply to prices way back?

I have written everything in a rush this morning. Maybe I made some mistake or didn't double up lot sizes. I will take a look at it later tonight but I am pretty sure that these 2 things do even out.
