I would say it's definitely possible for a good teacher to be a poor trader, if he has a lot of solid fundamental understanding of the market, technical analysis, etc. and he has a temperament suited to effective teaching, but does not have a ...

Well, if all traders execute short trades, the price would go down, but if all traders were trying to execute short trades, there would be no trades willing to buy, so the market would stand still, and no trades would occur. If no trades occur, the ...

If you're scalping, then I'd suggest you don't go too far back. Everything you're doing is short term so you need to be sensitive to short term S & R as well. But give your trade a little room... with the noisy, volatile nature of scalping you could ...

I've been interested in some time in trading pairs that are correlated. Mean reversion trading, in other words. It's a fascinating concept and one that's been used for years in the stock market. I'm not sure what the purpose of seeking poorly ...

It's a basic swing trading system: check the trend on higher timeframes then trade when the price (or fast MA in some versions) crosses the slow MA. It can be very profitable until the price lays flat and starts to move up and down across the slow ...

I'm not familiar with Bulls and Bears indicators but it sounds like the old favorite of looking at longer TF to see the larger trend then trading on the swings in the same direction in the shorter TF. When you say it used to work, do you mean that ...

I'm guessing this rule never went into effect, or it simply doesn't affect many brokers. I've seen lots of US brokers offering higher leverage than 1.5:1

Is this system using fractals for entry signals? I thought that fractals was repainting so I don't think it's very good for entries. I tried it before and it was always making signals late and I got slammed ! I'm reading more on BW systems now, ...
