Your post reminded me of an old thread begun in 2009 (that’s how long I’ve been around here). If you look at Post 4 in that thread, there was a group of traders here who loved the Rainbow moving average (I guess MT4 provided it). There might have ...

I’ve been trading since 2007. I never had any consistent, long-term success until I started trading Equity (stocks) using the weekly charts a few years ago. I admire people who can successfully trade the minute and hourly charts, I would prefer to ...

Despite all the crap you encounter (sometimes literally, I suppose) it’s gotta be a pretty satisfying job. You’re helping people in a very real way.

I agree whole-heartedly. Trading provides no value to anyone or anything. It’s no different from getting paid to play a video game. At least with an office job you’re contributing ‘something’, and at least with a manual labor job you’re building or ...

Jeez, man, these guys don’t know what Deltas are. If you’re long an option you do have a stoploss: the cost of the contract. But FXE can be tough, the Bid-Ask can be wide. I’ve rarely gotten filled at the midpoint. Low open interest makes that ...

If your camera allows, you can try to set the color temperature to something like 4500 or 4000 degrees. That will reduce the orange of the candles a little bit but they’ll still have warmth. Alternatively, you can set the camera to daylight (but not ...

Hi, if your only light source is candles (no window or overhead lights), you might find the contrast is too much. If that’s the case you can point the flash at the ceiling as a fill light. Experiment with the power of the flash to get the contrast ...

I put on a couple of pending short orders tonight. If they don't execute, no harm-no foul. My favorite medium-term approach is taking breakouts from consolidation or through support/resistance, and so forth. My philosophy is that if the price is ...

You can look at it that you're actually trading the higher time frame and using the lower time frame to time your entry. Put the lower time frame approach in context with the higher time frame likely direction. Everything you wrote about using the ...

You seem like a bright guy and you certainly have enough experience to trade successfully. You probably just need some small impetus, some little bump, to get you over the threshold. I have no idea what that might be, but I'd guess it's more ...

Hi, just addressing your first post. Keep it simple, follow the higher time frame. No matter what you do on a lower time frame, whether it's this or trendline breaks or Fibonacci retracements, it will have a greater degree of success if it's put in ...

Darnit!!! I really wanted a good comeback but couldn't think of anything. By the way, this is from 2009... did you find it searching for 'Football' after the Super Bowl?

Yes, an 8-pip discrepancy between brokers is a lot. When trading resumes after the weekend look here on Forex Factory at the 'Brokers' section. It will show the different quotes between 13 different brokers for 10 different pairs, including GBP/JPY. ...

A share buy-back can raise the stock price because that makes ownership less diluted. Raising dividends may or may not increase share price, it depends on the timing. If a company is considered a growth company raising the dividend could be seen ...

Completely agree with your time frame, that's been my experience, and will add that at 10 years one doesn't immediately become a kagillionaire, it's still more years of building and growing. I think nearly everyone can succeed at trading and ...

Example of what, when an indicator works and when it doesn't? Just put an indicator on your chart and study the times it gave a good signal and a bad signal, you'll find consistencies. OK, for example, Stochastics signals are generally not reliable ...

You're thinking much too hard about this. Every indicator works, whether it's Stochastics or Bollinger Bands or the nearly-extinct PSAR. Aside from academic exercise it doesn't matter 'why' it works, just pick an indicator and study the historic ...
