I have generated custom reports enabling all options, but I've still never tracked down the cause and my auditor friend wanted nothing to do with reports that use variable end-of-day, none of which ever coincide with any standard closing time. ...

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

Today Interactive Brokers put through a 50 pip spike across all Aussie pairs. Okay, an anomaly, right? At midnight USD/JPY spiked down to 0.00, GBP.USD spiked down to 0.875, AUD.USD spiked up to 1.025, and NZD.USD spiked up to 1.625. EUR.USD wasn't ...

Though I haven't used your system to initiate any actual trade yet so consider this as me just thinking out loud here, a visual backtesting of your system across nine pairs and gold suggests certain pairs have more definitive signals on the 8-hour ...

What is your Bollinger Band default? Of the two charting systems I use, one defaults to 20 SMA and the other defaults to 9 EMA.

The Swiss bank won't act until it gets to 1.2 but it might be worth taking a poke at a long from just a bit further down at 1.21 and hope for a similar reaction to 1.21 as there was at the beginning of March. Otherwise this pair can be an ...

It's at the resistance from the end of June now (0.80350) and short-term RSI is oversold so this might be a better level for you to short from. I've got low confidence for the long term, but from a swing perspective with the drop the Pound took and ...

A simple long-term (buy and hold for several weeks) swing method that seems to work particularly well for EUR/USD weekly charts. Buy/Sell at Bollenger bands (20/2) using 34 EMA as pivot. EUR/USD weekly image

Davit, I'm back from another break and I'm gong to start trading faster time frames (daily swing trading for the most part) now that volatility appears to be returning to the markets (or adding to my longer-term positions should volatility not ...

This is new: Though I haven't carried a balance since last Thursday, my accrued interest increased by three times more than it had for the combined total of the entire previous week. Even if they delayed posting my trading was very light and ...

For anyone confused about the title of this thread being different than what they subscribed to, Twee (Forex Factory moderator) has merged all the Interactive Brokers threads since there were so many of them and most had gone dormant.

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

The last time EUR/USD tested 1.35 it overshot to 1.3475 to clear out stops so the institutions could execute more buy orders. I don't necessarily expect it given the Fiboncci and rising trend line support, but I'm prepared for a false break ...

I agree. That's a strong support level I'm looking to buy at. My entry range is 1.35 down to 1.3475.

Excellent. I'll give the new version a chance then, though I'll wait until I have time to mess around with backing everything up in case I need to revert back to the old version.

Stock data is free -- I don't even know how you could unsubscribe to it, but anyway, the problem isn't a data spike, it is a 2:1 stock split (i.e. twice the shares worth half the price). Standard practice is to adjust all historical data to reflect ...

Would you please do me a favour and look at a daily chart for Google (GOOGL) and tell me if the chart is still broken (drops from ~$1,200 to ~$600) or if it is, in fact, fixed as technical support claims? I don't see how my installation of TWS could ...

Possibly, but after a $68 dollar move down it's more reasonable to go short from a higher position after a bounce. From an hourly scalping perspective, $1,278, the 27.2% extension of this last move down on the hourly chart (purple Fibonacci but the ...

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

It's been a while since I've posted or done any co-moderating here. I hope discussions are going well and everyone is making money. I've noticed all the professional pundits have turned instantly bearish on gold: Every move to them is a change of ...

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

My long entry target for GBP/USD at 1.70625 and my EUR/GBP short entry target of 0.798 were right on ...maybe a little too exact -- I should probably be more generous with my entry targets in the future as happened with my EUR/NZD short at the same ...

Technical support claims the Google charts are rendering correctly on their end. Can someone please look at a daily chart for GOOGL and tell me if it looks like my screen shot or if the prices have in fact been adjusted.

Interactive Brokers - experiences and opinions

It seems that if you have multiple problems you need to ask each individually, even if they are related and even if they are all components of the same issue, else technical support addresses only part then tries to close the ticket. I've had to ...
