Yes, found some decent data. Oanda is actually quite good about providing tick data. Of course, it's their own proprietary market-making feed, so it doesn't necessarily correlate on small timeframes to other brokers' feeds. I also found a valuable ...

Thanks for your input. I can certainly appreciate your approach to life... I've been taking a break from trading for the past few months in order to focus more on my studies, my relationships, and myself. Like you, I'm fairly certain that what I ...

Hey guys — Remember me? I've now graduated and am moving to Chicago in a month. I'm shopping my (technical) skills around to various prop firms and financial software companies in the area, trying to find some good opportunities for a ...

Flyjetz, First off, I have been following your system in the past few weeks, and while there certainly have been some losses due to reversals and such, it is good to see that the losses are occurring in a controlled fashion. Hopefully the market ...

Flyjetz, I really enjoy your style of trading... methodical, calculated, and level-headed. Keep up the good work! Drummer

market depth only really exists in a market that is made by a group of market participants. most retail forex brokers (GFT included) simply pass through the price feeds of a bank or group of banks (plus a pip or two). thus, "Level II" doesn't really ...

I've been looking for an MT4 indicator that will plot selected econometric values (e.g. GDP, CPI, Home Sales, etc) along the bottom of an MT4 chart. I gather that many traders here trade on shorter time frames, but long-term planning like we see in ...

Oanda's spread on EUR/USD is typically 0.9 pips. I'm not sure whether they'll increase it if you start winning, but they'd certainly give you a better chance than Crown.

The US economy is doing great ... April Fools! Absolutely priceless. P.S. Keep your April 1st goggles on tight... there's meta-fooling afoot

Filters... — Some of you have been talking about browsing this thread with a filter that selects posts by only certain users. How do you go about this?

The only way to effectively hedge one currency pair with another is to ensure that they do not share any components. Thus, one could hypothetically hedge GBP/JPY with AUD/USD, knowing that they are both strongly driven by carry trades (especially ...

Altreva, I too would be interested in seeing profitable models that you've developed. Could you post more in a separate thread? I'd like to keep this thread focused on NN development. Thanks

I did a little searching, and found that CME sells sets of historical futures data (both t/s and market depth). I'm not at the point where I want to spend lots of money researching these strategies, but for any of you who are, there it is.

Sorry if the title of this thread is misconstrued as a reference to Dustin's new service . I have heard of this service, but I was actually referring to a market commentary I read by IFR Markets (I think...) on a newsfeed. The writer did in ...

This past week was finals week at university... I guess I'm still thinking in engineering mode . I also have a thing for specificity... you can't support or refute a statement without knowing what it actually says .

Thanks, SL. Yeah, it looks like I've got a ways to go with the James thread. I'm on spring break in Florida this week, so maybe I can nurse my soon-to-be-scalding sunburns over a good James16 read. I don't suppose there's a synopsys somewhere ...

EUR/USD Setup — I am new to the J16 thread and methodology, but after reading through the first ten pages of the thread tonight, I think I might have an interesting chart to post here. I know that James is big on trading breakouts based upon ...

The crucial concept of hedging is understanding exactly what risk you're hedging against. In the buy EUR/USD buy USD/CHF example, merlin is right that you are simply buying a EUR/CHF position. On the other hand, forexlion and daytrading are also ...

I have been thinking along very similar lines lately. It seems that to automate this kind of strategy, one must only produce one simple function with a few parameters. That function is the allocation of position, ranging from -1 to 1 in a ...

Boy, did I (re)open a can of worms or what? Let's see if I can help close it back down, as it seems like the idea of balance-based incentive gaming is not really flying here anyway. It sounds like boxingislife has experienced one of the possible ...
