Will do Beerun, thanx

The only way to get around the straight Ask == Ask check dilemma using a timer is if the Ask !- Ask runs under a For loop x times. If all is true then the condition is set for the alarm to trigger. Thanks for bringing that to my attention since I ...

ahw okay now I understand. Got it

Thanks man, you're awesome! By the way when you said I'll use the timer to get the change in y the argument would change from this: If Bid == Bid AFTER x seconds{ If Ask moves y times; } }; To this? time = x,y; int = counter, trigger = 4; counter = ...

Lovely. Yes I agree. I need to develop my programming skills anyway for a big python project I have in mind, not trading related so this will help get my feet wet a little bit in problem solving. You've basically already given me the framework so I ...

Well I don't blame you. I have little code snippets for myself. I'm a mediocore C programmer, hardly anything to be proud of. I was wondering though, the bidasktimer functions fine but I didn't realize it needed an additional argument. If you could, ...

Yeah I just tried it out now as well as your MaxSpread indicator which is superb. Not only did you make the indicators but you even added the email and notifications function. So now I know there's a forex_jesus in here! Thanks a lot.

If there's a god, you are him. Thanks so much. I'm gonna try it out now. Let you know how it goes.

can someone please make a indicator that uses a timer based on tick feed for both bid and ask? For example the argument is: If Bid = Bid after x seconds, then timer goes off; If Ask = Ask after x seconds timer goes off. Hopefully someone can help me ...

can someone make a alert indicator with the following argument? Or just pin a thread that already has this function. Argument: If Bid OR Ask is equal to Bid OR Ask after x (seconds), alert So it wont' be using candles, just tick feed from the broker ...

Another empty assertion. No evidence, no evidence, no evidence. I throw the towel.

Yeah I think it's time I get to definitions. What you propose is correct. For me "profiting" would need to be 100% or more within 1 year's time or less. If you can't turn $100 into $200 within that timeframe, gtfo. If your account size is massive, ...

To all traders, if you don't think icebergs, spoofing, pinging and price shading happens in the forex market, as Anton Kreil would put it, you've got your head up your a$$.

Well the 90-95% figure has been thrown around for ages. If we take 95% for face value and round it we get 100 but you're right, the majority do indeed lose and that's referring to the retailer's end. Institutions such as banks, hedge funds, pension ...

I don't recall saying anything about "beating" the market. What I did really mean to say is profiting from "retail" forex trading is absolutely futile unless proven otherwise. Your quote "If you are truly good at trading, you can make money" is an ...

I should've titled this Failure in Retail Forex is a certainty. Yes inst. traders and investment banks are wide-a$$ proof you can make money. On the retailers end, not so much. Problem with retail trading stems from what people call "technical ...

Hope you read the very first post as to WHY I made this thread, which is a response to the ridiculous titled thread "Forex is easy! Prove me otherwise....", OP didn't prove anything in his thread yet people think it's an okay thread. My thread is ...

Indeed. Seems like no matter how much information a retailer can obtain, even if it's normally out of reach, there just isn't any edge for retailers. Best to go swing equities altogether. Forex is for the wishful thinking, the optimists, the ...
