The question is where is that market depth coming from - a demo or a live order book? I'm guessing (a wild one at that) it would all be demo, thus not a true representation of the live quotes. I guess you could just ask them.

Thanks for the welcome back and well wishes peoplez. Most appreciated I see my beloved VSA is still performing extremely well across all pairs. The setups are literally smacking me in the face every time I open a chart. Still on demo ...

Allo Allo Allo How goes it all? Great to be back online again, seems I got a lot of reading to catch up on in here. Just thought I'd reply to all those who PM'ed me in one hit here. A big thanks to all who sent their condolences. I really do ...

As well as what birdt suggested, you can also try turning the magnet sensitivity to 0. Tools > Options > Objects tab > Magnet sensitivity I find this helps a lot.

People move the market. Not fundamentals, technicals, interest rates or the moon aligning with the sun. What causes people to react is infinite. Fundamentals (arguably) play the most significant role in the long term, the million dollar question is ...

I made no mention of the commentator causing the market to move. Read my post again if you're that daft. Also read your first post again and think about what you're saying. You claim that fundamentals are the only way to go. Yet your basis for this ...

Naïveté — "trading with fundamentals is the only way to go" And you think so because someone on CNN said price will move a certain way and it did? lol.... Classic Good luck, you'll need it.

You need an open session to view that link, that's why it wouldn't work for Tom. Has happened to me before when referencing that page. lol Here's a link that will work (had it bookmarked) Esignal Symbols Guide - Forex (Format & Contributors)

lol I could also go "cherry picking" definitions to support the argument for and against. Bottom line is that according to some definitions it is, and others it's not. Go with whatever helps you sleep at night.

Define gamble? First rule of thumb, state what definition you are referring to, otherwise the debate is futile. I know the OP's post has disappeared, but I bet "gambling" was not adequately defined (quite common around here). You must define the ...

Different rules for different mules. The basics I always follow. 1) Golden rule, don't risk more than 1% 2) Buy low and sell high 3) Don't short a strong market 4) Don't long a weak market 5) Let the market prove you wrong Know the market, know your ...

Great post Scotty. There's a couple of things I'd like to add that may help someone. If not, it's no sweat off my back. First is the statement my mentor (a good friend) made to me at the beginning of my journey some years ago. "I can help you build ...

It's only a preview, but a good start if you're truly interested: Trading and exchanges: market microstructure for practitioners By Larry Harris If the missing pages bother you, it's time to buy the book. Thanks for the additional resources ...

If you stop posting in here I will hunt you down. And beg you to come back... lol Forget about the noise a public forum naturally attracts. If people want to be naive it's their own loss. It's a common occurrence when markets are ranging and easy to ...

It depends on the market/set-up presented and the volatility of the pair. Generally no more than 20 pips, at times it's been as low as 2 or 3 pips plus the spread. Average is about 7-10. I must have a lot of losers then? No, not really. Considering ...

Your broker is lying to you. MT4 does not support contract volume. It's activity or "tick" volume. Even if your broker has futures/CFD's/indexes on MT4. "double Volume[] Series array that contains tick volumes of each bar of the current chart." ...

Pardon my ignorance, but what happened to the previous thread? Noticed it's no longer in the Trading Discussion I personally learnt how to trade from a female. If I had my time again, it would not be any different.

I agree, but... — The rat still recognised a pattern. "It quickly realized that the left side was more rewarding". That is pattern recognition. "Unlike the rat, their swollen brains stubbornly searched for the elusive pattern that determined ...

The rat did that by recognising a recurring pattern. Majority of the time going to the left is a pattern. So the rat always went left. It doesn't take a Yale undergrad to understand that... lol The quote is flawed or mis-worded. The rat still ...
