I join the thread a little bit too late but anyway here is my opinion: Basically we set some support/resistance levels and try to buy/sell exactly there, 30 pips away and next 30 pips away. (for extern int OpenOrdersPerPair=2 We consider this as a ...

I think this kind of discussion is mostly started by the traders who didnt earn their fist million yet, but already start thinking how to avoid taxes when they would be rich. My opinion is: better concentrate on your strategy. As you earn the first ...

so what? it easily makes 300-400 pips movements

moonchild, great opinion! 6 months after going live I came nearly to the same point last week. I used to say my target is 15% (in fact in average in 2006 I made over 20%) but this makes me nervous at the end of each month. Last thursday my result ...

sorry my mistake - only 3% - not 15

dont exxagerate - 20 pips mean 15% of my account. I am still alive since 10.2005

15% monthly

The Broker has to know first whether I am going to buy or sell. Otherwise skewing prices may turn against him.

look, some systems require some human support, some work better. My system works bad if I start to make my instant improvements. That probably means I have week intuition But I can live with it so long my system works without my intuition.

Profit is the goal! It is much easier to make a million within two years then within one year. To make the system work for two years it must be simple enough to fit the chart in the long run. I have a very simple way to check out whether my system ...

How do you think all these automated trading systems work? I recomment trying to write down (as a program for MT3/4 for example) all the rules you use. You will see how the system would work in the past AND what is much more important - to run the ...

look, as I look at it now it is really simple, few rules, few exceptions, nothing special, but to develop it I spent two years so I prefere to take profits first and then write journals. Sorry, the thread was about results, not systems.

my system fits 2-3 pairs, I prefer not to say any more, I am sorry. I took a look at AUDUSD - my system will make losses with it.

Yes I trade up and down, up and down I dont think that I have found an universal rule - the low volatility pairs just fit better MY system.

big volatility - big losses for range players

I play range on low-volatility pairs. I look only at price. 75% sounds good but my wins are small and losses large. Nothing incredible I think

I think the relation between the spread and the market emotions is quite obvious, however it can be useful only if you have a strategy which can or may want to use the signal. For my strategy it is useless, but I agree with you that the signal is ...

Forex is unpredictable. As I played with small money last year I made a ultra-stable results few months in a row. As I started with bigger money in january the chart was not that predictable any more. I still reach my targets in average but actually ...

I dont write any journals, but I am sure the Holy Grail is worth working on it. Max gains? - the longer you play the more you gain my average is over 20% monthly...so far Max losses? - 10% % winners, % losers - about 75% winners Remember that ...
