{quote} What about this week news? How do I select which one's are movers and which one's to discard?
I'm taking a break until NFP. I'm not sure what Tony does, but what I've been doing is looking at the red news, then going back in time and seeing what happened to the currency over the last 10 news events. I then take a view on what my SL and TP should be, based on how price has moved after the event. Don't forget to take daylight savings into account if your broker changes their server time during the year.

Thanks man, just out of curiosity, is this method viable? I mean, mathematically I can clearly see the edge, but looks so simple that bugs my mind.

You need to find that out for yourself. 2 people trading the same system will not get the same result.

{quote} What events did you traded this week Tony?

I just came back from Cayo Largo and really abused with the waves there. I do body surfing very well multiple times and a few not so well timed waves made me eat the sand a few times. Almost broke my neck, back and toes. Not to forget a barracuda was dangerously staring at me at some point. I really didn't like it. I think I might have lost some brain cells because of that and the alcohol. When I came back, the first day, I was having trouble driving in intense downtown traffic. Also, my eyesight was blurry because of the intense sun and all the salt I was exposed to in my eyes. To make a long story short, as soon as I landed, I started gambling on Etherium and some 1 hours breakout candles... needless to say that trading 1 hour breakout candles is completely useless. Then I continued with copper, gold, gbp... kept going and going and going, oil, crude oil inventories went bad.. everything was plain unlucky. Too bad we can't turn back time... now I'm on recovery mode. It's a very weak mode.

Peace

more experienced content :-). not so much beginners talk with believing high slippage is not normal for big news and sl type orders and higher amounts. reading your content if often like you dont know any basics in trading. but many told you this already and teached you.

no he hasnt. doing something long wrong is experience? trading very big amount in biggest news with SL order type (that will filled as market order after triggered), and he is wondering that all brokers have bigger slippage?? come on, thats basic knowlegde if you know what a market is and what ask and bid prices represents,......

maybe he is ok as man (and often he sound more poser and not real stories, but whatever), but as trader you can so easy see he has big problems with knowledge basics in trading. impossible to defend, only possible to look over it.

its a wonder that he found maybe brokers where slippage is small , because he is trading small amounts. this is maybe real, but not his story!

this sounds ok, but you really did cry often in postings about higher slippage, that was extrem normal sippage for this news and even with your small amounts.
try higher amounts like 10-50 million volume per trade in big news, and you will see other slippage.
if such slippage can kill a performance, the system need be to corrected.

but when you say it now in this way ( certain brokers have less slippage) , its ok. often its the not good brokers with lower slippage, but thats an other story.

You trade 500 lots?

How fast is execution time for placing orders? Not taking into account broker, pair, time, trading point, just give the range, for my interest.

Not taking into account broker, pair, time, trading point, just give the range, how this will be possible to answer then?
execution time depends on your broker and the 3 points you dont want to taken in and how you set the order. stop and market orders are filled immedeatly (but you dont know price ofcourse), limit orders depends on volume in market when prices triggers , most of time get many partially fills.

or do you speak about execution time until broker response? then this depends from your connection and the difference between your server area to your brokers servers.
