I have noticed a lot of people-you fellow retail traders on most weekends,acquiring new self gifted skills of analyzing-debating AND arguing with passion what the FX market pairs will be doing on Monday...blah blah and what you will be expecting (perceptions) e.t.c
Thus to say if so and so& such a candle(bullish/bearish) appears.blah blah i will be taking my ski and heading to Niseko, Japan or Telluride... blah blah I will ski so fast that i will be expecting to make_certain amount of pips.

Do you have this tendency as well_AND DOES IT WORK FOR YOU???
Has it been working for over the years and do you think you will ever give it up(the tendecy/habit)?

LETS CHAT....

I know what usually happens certain times of day. If i see it happening after market opens I'll join in.
Its the weekend.. No clue what markets will do on open. Maybe gaps ... maybe none.
Nobody has a crystal ball, even the best analysts on tv are always wrong.
I have to be my own guru, and avoid their non-sense.
If I don't listen to the professionals, I am sure not gonna listen to an armature on forex factory about market signals.
It will be my trade, based off how i see the market in my mind, and market will let me know if I was right or wrong.
I just try to scalp some pips when market seems willing to give some, based off liquidity, volatility, and time of day.
The only system that will work is one designed by and for yourself.

I couldn't agree more... There are far too many fortune tellers with magical powers on this site They are able to tell the future. They like to tell themselves stories. Well, we know who likes stories... Children...

Ok so when you trade you don't do this? Most probably you don't do what you just wrote on the weekend (practice your strategy) but when you are trading live I bet you most likely do what you just wrote above.. you also think "if this happens or that happens blah blah blah then I will open a short or a long trade".. :-) if you don't do this then please enlighten us on how you know 100% if the market is going to be up or down because your thread implies that you do have this knowledge... :-o

It would be much easier if the person provided username and investor password to uphold his claim. I am so shocked at the amount of threads we have here along with those who are deemed Professional members but not one of them has shown proof of their success or failures.

a guy walk in front of me while buying some fish, he ask about the fish price and didn't like the price so he said ill buy it with half of this price after two weeks from now, and that what happen to the fish price after 2 weeks exactly it become half the price that i buy with it before, i figure out lately that every time a year the price of the fish become cheaper in that period

what i mean is that experience is what make you know some of the future

anyway that doesn't mean i have the experience or even believe that the price of these virtual markets follow the simple supply and demand basic

cheers

My profit year to date.. And I have no clue what the market will do in the future..
I just take small risks for small rewards, when the time is right.
The time is not right for me on the weekend to make a call.
I don't study on weekends anymore, because I have found my edge.
But i used to study every waking moment till I found what worked for me.

Thank you kindly for having posted that screenshot from A myfxbook profile. It would be nice if you could have simply posted the link of your profile so we can view your greatness ourselves. I guess we will have to trust that you have a greate explaination for pick and choosing what you want to show us. Kind of scammy if you ask me.

Bloodpoodle...exactly my point.This guys are geniuses hey.They can tell you what the markets are going to do before they even open!!!

Meaning,there are a lot of thread/discussions of traders talking over the weekends,like how i said in the initial headline.I am always in awe of their skills-predicting the moves of the markets on the weekend.Prophets.(I WISH I HAD THEIR SKILLS).

"Its the weekend.. No clue what markets will do on open. Maybe gaps ... maybe none..".This is a very good view or perception-keep it up.
i'm not here to prove points-talking can really indirectly help some .1 out there

THE BEARS AND THE BULLS LIKE PROPHETS AND THEIR PROPHECIES=THEY WILL BE WAITING FOR THEM ON MONDAY_WITH THEIR MERRY WEEKEND PREDICTIONS.

APPROACHING A MONDAY MARKET WITH AN ALREADY LOCKED IN PERCEPTION IS HIGHLY/EXTREMELY DANGEROUS...!!
(they never learn do they!)

Namaste(to the prophets).

If you make every trade call your own..
You don't have to worry so much about what other people do.
Just do your own thing..
Its the only way to make it in this business.

Bloodpoodle...i hear you mate....i hear you very well.and i totally agree with.

Being silent for a long time gets boring(people constantly bleeding besides you year after year while you-constantly keeping your mouth shut gets boring-boring=boring_its not fun at all,till it gets annoying).
After a couple of years doing it consistently.You come in here to clear you mind have a chat with some other people and check how your segment(aka the retailers/retail segment) is progressing and you amazingly find all this weird perceptions and habits they constantly feed to each other in here.

And none of them are progressing to anywhere=Always in the same plateau.Yet they know so much.


Bloodpoodle Can you offer some assistance fellow trader-How do i completely delete my account on forex factory??I've been at this for a while now and trying to figure it out_there is no shame in asking for help right>?(everytime i tell myself im not logging in again-i get or meet an email in my inbox that requires my attention-and i come back....if i keep going this way i will never complete leave this forum).so i need to erase my profile=do you know how this i can achieve???

Once the post goes past the edit period (I think it's 24 hours) then it's on their servers for life. The only thing you can try is:

1. delete all your PMs (inbox, sent, draft, trash)
2. replace your existing email with a fake email address
3. write Twee and see if he would change your username to something random like: KV8ZWEKXCVBA27VF
4. change your status to invisible
5. delete all your information from the profile
6. don't login or make any posts
7. change your password to a random password that you can't remember so that even you won't be able to log in again.

You'll eventually get buried and no one will ever be aware that you still exist.

I hope this helps

For me; the answer is market trend for sure. In this why, I always open my new trade when I am very sure on the trend status.

That's actually a good idea, "Membership Revoked" I think puts your posts in hidden status. But that would actually draw more attention. I think he is more interested in just slipping away, out of sight, out of mind kind of thing. So for that, it's better to just not post and just quietly slip away.

What makes you think you know what the market is going to do?

Experience of being in sync with the market. When it gracefully whips it's tail you cautiously adapt
