I've been looking for Monday breakout systems. It's a pity that this system is no longer being worked on. I assume the author blew up his account?

When you go to a lecture or class, do you take notes? A journal's very similar. As with most things in life, you get out what you put in.

Currency correlation? What's that?

Backtesting is for wimps.

Yes. The "law of attraction" as I understand it isn't meant to be mystical or spiritual. Instead, if you possess complete faith in your vision/goal/aspiration, you will take ACTION to bring that vision into reality. Then it's just a matter of ...

How long did you backtest this system? How many pairs did you test? Just curious.

You're stacking the odds against you with the smaller timeframes. For one thing, the influence of spread is going to be much more significant, and you'll need a killer edge just to overcome it. I've developed maybe half a dozen profitable systems on ...

A good, solid, profitable EA is worth millions of dollars. You expect someone to share it for free??
- KingKaivar replied Dec 28, 2012
Well I think it's correct to hold a position open until TP or SL is hit. Unless you use a filter or different kind of stop, e.g. a time stop or candle-pattern stop.

Yeah, pt49 called chubbybgood stupid. 20% risk is insane though IMO. If you open two trades in the same direction, chances are both will either win or lose. At 20% risk, chubbybgood will lose $10,000 of his friend's money at the whiff of bad news. ...

You're competing against Big Money. Big Money have teams of analysts who spend 12 hours a day analysing a single currency pair, calling contacts in the big multinationals and reserve banks, creating economic models etc. Do you have an edge against ...

20% risk?

Sounds interesting. Look forward to your posts.

Okay, is this a joke thread or is it meant to be serious?

It seems strange. The OP said he was sad.

That's not really a negative R:R, but I know what you mean. If the win% is sufficiently high, then using a reward-to-risk less than 1 is okay. You're reducing the size of your wins in exchange for a higher win rate.
- KingKaivar replied Dec 26, 2012
Using a 1:10 reward-to-risk ratio is doable if your win rate is high enough. But if your TP is 10 pips, the spread will take a huge chunk out of your reward. i.e. a 2 pip spread will eat 20% of a 10 pip profit, leaving you with 8 pips. Thus, your ...

Why are you so sad? Do you have a system?
