Not all pairs are tradeable all the time -- SELECTIVITY. And EUR/USD is often a poor choice.

Now this is an interesting concept. And it doesn't require risking half your account on every trade. In fact, at a reasonable profit level, you could go to break even, set TP at 500 pips and go on about your business. Perfect for a second, "fun ...

The dream/fantasy of day trading for quick riches starting with little capital is the reason the "95%" can't get ahead. Their expectations are too high. Patterns aren't reliable, there are too many false signals, spreads are too large, news releases ...

I ran across this thread a few weeks ago and am very interested long-term position trading. pipEASY's method of trade management is like nothing else I've seen. However, I am in the US and struggling to figure out how to implement without hedging ...

What does this mean? I can't visualize what you are describing here. Which candles wicks, relative to the entry? Enjoy the thread -- keep it up. Thanks.

In total agreement with your first two "truths". Accept losses and trade from a clean chart. Looking forward to more.

LOL - It cracks me up when people rip on CP! The frustration they feel because he JUST WON'T GIVE IT AWAY. It's amazing. Pretty sure that he said from his earliest posts that he will never reveal his method. So if you're reading just to see if he ...

It's disproven because I can, in fact, travel from New York to LA. It's disproven because I can, in fact, move a fork full of food from my plate to my mouth and into my stomach. It's disproven because the EUR/USD was, in fact, north of 1.60 four ...

Referring back to the thread's original post, I've got a thought on pi and how CP might see its relation to trading. On its face, pi appears to be this mysterious and grand number. It is infinite. It is important. It holds secrets we can barely ...

CP, there appears to be a conflict between the "number 1 and golden rule" of following the trend and your more advanced methods of trading -- with "no historical data", no charts or indicators, or that within a single period's OHLC, "you possess a ...

You all can argue about the technicalities, but FOREX is more or less a zero sum game. x dollars in, x dollars out. As for the question of 95% losers, consider the math. For every successful trader who makes $100,000 a year, there are a hundred ...

That move should end all debate on "SL vs no SL"!

Trade with the trend off pullbacks. So simple, but so important if you want to increase your winning percentage. Don't just try -- I make it a prerequisite to entry.

I've been re-reading a lot of the material here (jduester's summary has been very helpful - post #23250). I was struck by a quote from one of Jim's posts that fits really well here: " i rarely let a trade run off of a DAILY chart more than 30 or so ...

FTA? — Have been away from this thread for awhile. Can't find original reference to "FTA". What does it stand for? Thanks.
