{quote} Hey guys, just an update on my earlier setup. I've lost but every loss is a lesson. What's the lesson? The lesson is that the strategy I'm using cannot be used in a "Ranging Market" So that means I have to go back to the drawing board to develop a strategy that can be used whenever the market is ranging. But Im still bearish until daily high has been broken and closed above. {image} {image}

if this is true ..im quitting FF , as market makers , can see my position and defeat me in this game ...trade explorer - although if we keep visibility in private mode , if FF sells our live trading position data to market makers , they will come to know our position and hedge against us...we are counterpart of those big players, we loose ,they win ..

Better hide your analysis on a paper and take it under your table. Better not discuss something about charts at all or rare post fake charts.
Sorry better rethink your post and study more charts. Hope we all not hide it also.

This thought process is an illusion. How do I know? Because I spent thousands of hours not only in real markets but also on the simulator.

If your trading system has flaws, and I know that all systems have flaws, you will have similar results on the simulator. Those stop hunts will happen exactly the same way on the simulator when you test your system over some historical data. Pick any pair and any date... Pick anything random... Then you will wonder how simulator will hit some of your stops before market goes the other way. What does that mean? Could market makers still spy on you while trading on a simulator? Come on!

The real reason of getting hunted in shady ways is hidden in the way our brains operate: Subconsciously, our brains always pick certain areas for our stops that "masses" would pick too... The untrained human brain always follows the "herd", i.e. the "collective mind", because, regarding to my theory, the "magnetic universe" influences every living being in strange but almost identical ways through various waves and their frequencies. It takes years and even decades to become aware of your subconscious and to free ourselves from those forces that make our brains act in a certain way.

Long story short: Nobody is chasing you! Your brain is your enemy. Relax and keep improving your skills and your system!

Best wishes
Focus only on what truly matters!

because , i think my wrong data(both bad and good trades ) (not only mine but all retails ) might help those big players to learn about the vulnerabilities of their system..

who knows..they might get retail sentiment data feed from sites like Fxbook , FF , etc.....data is valuable than gold ,platinum etc..

sentimental analysis is also a big thing for them..i believe they data we provide in these sites is like helping them ( my opinion) even a bad traders(like me) data helps them in some other way..

Exactly - and maybe to add an aspect here. Personally I switched some time ago to putting entry limits at levels where I would have put my stop in earlier times. But you can play this game on many layers. Because maybe the real best entry would be if you put it at the stop level of the new entry level? Which is what I actually do on many occasions. Well, it only works if your stops would oftentimes be very near to the actual turning point, but in any case worth a try, because whatever indicator you use, most of the time there will be fake breaks to take your stop alongside with a thousand others.
Another day, another dollar.

Not only in platforms like FF ,myfx book and so many that the real time trading position of a retail traders can be found also brokers have a real time data , and numbers of opened position of retail traders ( all of them)
The question to be asked is
1. Do they share these information somewhere or to their liquidity providers?
2. If yes why would they do that ??

Someone plz correct me if am wrong.

Opened position in your broker it's not a secret weather it's a buy or sell position, winning or losing trade ,,,the only question is do these information about opened trade ( buying or selling position) get shared somewhere??

Well Albert Einstein once said" curiosity has its meaning of existence" am just being curious

Why sometimes you can find that the number of sellers are quite greater than buyers ( even in their lotsize) and still buying position wins?
It's a serious discussion!
I know we have a lot of professional traders with a different winning strategies and systems here in FF ,i also have some
But this discussion will not refrain our capabilities In making profit ,,,am just being curious
