Please a question for the former traders in this thread. I like and want to use EO's method of trading several moves on different time frames on one currency. But I tend to get confused. What method does EO use to keep track and not mistake one trade for another whilst trading like this. Some pointers would really help .
Thanks

This is my first time visiting this thread and I can't help but notice something: For the first 6 years of this thread there were 36,780 posts. However, during the last 3 years of this thread there has been only 7 posts! (not including this post).

WHAT HAPPENED? Is this system no longer working? Or did everyone here on this thread make $10 million and have no need to post here anymore?

Trade what you see and NOT what you expect is my first thought before entering a trade. This mentality has helped me trade the market for what it is. We don't know where it's going, only where it's been. I use key setups and take trades without any emotion attached. I trade only the GBP/USD and primarily during the US Session, she (I refer to the GBP/USD as she) provides enough opportunties that I don't need to worry about the other currency pairs. I don't worry about the fundamental side of trading, trading itself is emotional enough. I don't hold...
Trade what you see and NOT what you expect.
^^words to remember always.
A trade should be based on an assumption based on facts

Okay. So, does that mean this thread was popular because of eohater and not his trading system?

Yes, I can understand how there can be a bit of a drop-off in posts when the main teacher of the thread is no longer posting (I hope he is still alive! lol). However, if the system is actually making people successful, then wouldn't it stand to reason that they would at least post here every once in a while about their success, as well as to occasionally help people or at least give a word of encouragement in regards to "how great this system is"? If the system is "great and successful" as this system is supposed to be, then how in the world can only 7 posts have been made in the last 3 years -- REGARDLESS if the creator of the thread has disappeared?

This eohater guy must've had one heck of a personality if his leaving the forum caused the number of posts on this thread to drop from an average of 6130 per year to now of an average of just over 2 posts per year (average of the last 3 years)!

Has another thread been opened where the focus is on trading these methods? I have read the PDF's and am trawling through the thread. I decided to focus on the 1hr 62ema trade as an easy primer, took my first trade today.


It didnt work out but Im hopeful of making a good go of learning these ideas, the PDF is well written and makes allot of sense to me.

thanks

I tried this system long ago.. Never had success with it...
I eventually realized other peoples systems never work.
The way to success is to find what your personally good and very bad at..
And build your own system based on your successes and failures.
[If your new.. You won't be able to build your own profitable system for years.]
You will learn something here.. but probably will never be consistently profitable with this system.
Expect knowledge not money when testing out other peoples system.
The money comes later... after you tried many systems and found your personal edge.
The only system that will work is one designed by and for yourself.

dear new traders, don't get discouraged by any negative comments. Keep learning, practicing and then be on the top. I am also making my way to the top. I know it may take some years, not a big deal

I am kind of curious whatever happened to EOHater, I remember the times a long time ago. Not that I am asking about trading, but just knowing he is all right. Anyway, I remembered this thread from back in the day, and I thought I would just drop by.

I learnt he is dead. May his soul rest in peace.

{quote} Hi deergo and welcome. Yes, the PDF is a "summary" of the contents of this thread. It's not a replacement for reading and studying the whole thread but it covers some of the most important posts and examples and will give you a head start in setting up the charts and MA's and learning the method. I'm currently studying it right now as you can see by my last post. My intentions are of course, to use this method as it's been very successful for EO and the other regulars here.
Little late but thank you albchr.
