I'm going to keep working next week, with more caution than usual, but I'm going to take off the whole week of Christmas. I really dislike trading half weeks anyway, I figure bankers won't be back to work til Wednesday or Thursday. Besides, it's ...

Dukas is like the crazy street preachers you see in the Bible Belt of the USA. He just won't stop no matter who comes to take him on at the plate, so to speak. There is very little objective truth in the market other than results. Reality is traders ...

Dude, no one freaking cares. Straddling and getting killed by the spread or making average day pips on big moves is stupid and kills your bottom line. Why won't you just stop? There are a million threads on FF, why preach here?

The RBA Whipsaw of Doom tonight.

I can honestly tell you that straddling doesn't work any better. If anything you're better off hedging using two different pairs. And on this last NFP that probably would've been murder. Especially if you were in EURUSD as it had the worst whipsaw.

Dukas I have a small account with Oanda, I am not a big player, I am not using their core pricing. Just a standard US branch account. I only got slipped 2 pips when my stop was hit on NFP today. And that was right when the news hit. Yes. That's two ...

Can't win 'em all. What a bad number. Oanda didn't slip me more than two pips on my stop though so that's good.

13 trades is not a sample size that can prove anything. Volatility has sucked for the last year. When I started trading forex, coming from other instruments, I could easily have 80 pip days with EURUSD. Sometimes off just one trade. That takes more ...

Hi, I have a question. I decided that I would open an account and see how I liked Tradersway, since I am noticing my current broker's execution getting worse. I got through the registration just fine, but when I sent in my verification documents, I ...

It's not uncommon for it to run headfirst into a level and immediately reverse without losing momentum first. Looking at the market profile, I think we've probably printed today's low, or are close to it. Especially now that London is closed. See ...

This is an absolute must. I've actually be rereading it this week. Anyone who wants to be good at trading needs to read that book. Performance errors are costly. I think overmanaging trades kills bottom line. Just get in, and let it do its thing. ...

You do not need to be a citizen. Oanda will take you. Not heard anything about the one you mentioned.
- ForexIdiot69 replied Dec 3, 2016
Using a stop loss is imperative. Base it off market structure, and then size the trade based off the percentage you'd be comfortable losing. Ie: 2% of 1000 = 20, if you have a 40 pip stop then you need to be at .50c/pip or a 50,000 size trade. That ...

I have had no issues withdrawing money from Oanda. Fills could be better, but it's not too bad.

Think it's gonna bounce at 1.0700 and head south again fast. Probably to take out .0540.
