Maybe because Hedge Fund, as its name suggest doing Hedging ? they doing different things like Delta Neutral strategies or HFT that makes much easier money then outright trading. But its different world. For small retail clients this strategy could ...

Hi its nice to see some TOS strategy ! some question for you: You expecting huge sell off on SPY based on your Butterfly body ? Why just not use Ratio Butterfly. +10 +30 +10. looks the same but you dont need extra legs. Expiration 20October there is ...

I suggest add CCI with overbought/oversold levels, plus add 5EMA and 10EMA. then you can go also with Stochastic but be carefull use it only when its over 50. With this strategy you can make during 1month about 10 000usd easy. I forgot add MACD.

Maybe you should try differnet markets. Try some Futures(also be aware some some Gold or Cruide oil that are hard to trade), or try trading Options (be aware of course stupid Binary options.) Forex is just a waste of money. My two cents : )

Nice Thread, i just read first pages of this thread. It interested me coz beside my scalping trades i do options trades as well just simple ones ( no managing portfolio) good site for learning and tips for trades is url and my tip for what kind of ...

And then you call yourself The Flipper ? Well known biggest most successfull trader scalping on Eurex market using ORDERFLOW. And yes he is not trading forex.

Best trading conditions without volume and orderflow ? hope you kidding.

Forex is hell ! thats true. I wish i never startred with FOREX. Focus on better market that have real volume and have orderflow visible for you. Do not start with Forex if you cannot be profitable on other markets. Just My 2cents.

Agree with you, but DOM show you actualy traded volume as well. so you see speed of this volume as well as on Tape. tape is hard to watch and you can easy get lost on which price is holding and not, especially you hard to see Spoofing and icebergs ...

yes also on Bonds market Spread trading exist they buy and sell on different Yield curve like TEB spread. but its not make any different what you see on DOM you focus on wich side is stronger or weaker. sure its not easy but it make sence.

you make a point and you see it right on that chart. they are quick in and out. therefore you see so much volume buy and sell they not going for big 200ticks profit, all happend near 2-5 ticks of profit. depends on market if you study dom you will ...

it depends of your style of trading. for me its scalping, and the way how i trade it from DOM. i see no reason to scalp like on 5min charts, let say you see pinbar on 5min on chart. i see what all happend during this pinbar and i know all auction ...

check out ZN(Tbonds) vs DAX or curde oil compare bid/ask and tell me which one is thin?

whatever works for you, keep using it. it was my 2cent. i wish i moved from forex to normal market that have some real volume before 8years ago thats all

HFT and bid/offer spoofing, layering exists sure i guess on all markets and ppl still trading.

thin on DOM comparing other thick market not saying its thin on cash value or someting like that.

you right some brokers like IB have nice spread. but you have to trade some eur/usd. and not some normal market. it was advice. not arguing with some other strategy that works fine. just my advice.

yes if u trade Crude oil or dax or some other hell markets that are thin ..thats problem but if u trade thick market like eurex fgbl or 10y notes thats different story
