TradeStation's own data in the current TS8 release may not go back further than 2003, but you can import your own data as far back as you like, and Joel says he has paid for his own, clean data. Nothing particularly unusual about that for long-time ...

giraia br - I wouldn't worry about people's opinions on Joel's backtesting. Firstly, they have neither his exact code, nor do they know what data he's using, nor which version of TS he has used. As for TradeStation not being able to test pre-2003 ...

Nice thread, kareem40. I use a 13 period RSI but will add a 21 period to check out from Monday.

The RSI Trade

LP - it used to be that the Asian session was very slow and sideways-moving most of the time and the London and US sessions were the times to trade. However, for the last year or so, there has been extreme volatility, such that the Asian session is ...

You need consistency, not number of trades and profit. There's no substitute for trading real money, so try starting VERY small, microlots or less (I think Oanda allow even less), so losses will not hurt you financially. Then steadily increase your ...

how much profit do i need on demo before going to live trade

Mostly agree with karmostaji; but lately have been listenig to Choral music from here url ... kind of celestial. Also a lot of baroque classical, flamenco guitar and solo piano... ... but occasionally revert to Led Zep

In the world of forex, if not the world of retail forex forums, $100k is still peanuts. I spoke to UBS last week about opening an fx trading account : they weren't interested in opening an account with less than $300k, with $300k (3 lots) as the min ...

So sorry, tdion, but you're barking up the wrong tree. This thread refers to the blog account over here url . The OP invited DaBuschi & others to continue a discussion about variations on the blog method on this thread. You may be the life and ...

tdion - you go on about back testing accuracy and yet you have difficulty reading a website... there is no guarantee in Joel's title.. there is a Google related link to a system seller's website, who offers some form of guarantee - nothing to do ...

Quick q for DaBuschi who I see is online : what do you mean by , ie. how do you define "too close" ? (I'm hopping between threads here... )

tdion - this is not true. Joel emails out the trade orders for both methods in advance. For free. He explicitly states that he does not want to share hs position sizing algorithm. However, if you are not too lazy, you can build a spreadsheet, enter ...

Thanks for the chart, Vantage. Now that you're spending some time with forexjedi, have you reduced the number of pairs you trade ? I only trade EURUSD, EURJPY, GBPUSD, GBPJPY, but I sometimes think there could be advanatges to trade only EURUSD, as ...
