DislikedHi doblece
thanks for the reply.
i've found the tick chart in marketwatch.
However, i do not see any option to change the periodicity within the tick chart to say 10-ticks or 20-ticks etc.
Is this possible?
I'm using an Alpari demo account BTW.
Many thanks.Ignored

DislikedHi
this question has probably been asked lots of times.
It seems that most people in these FF forums are using metatrader. Why is this? Does metetrader own FF or something?
Many thanks.Ignored
DislikedMost people on FF use metatrader because metatrader is a terminal that is very popular with bucket shops and other crappy brokerage service that cater to the poor people dieing to get into the most crocked market of them all.
Other than that? Hell, I have no idea. In my part of the world(Norway), you can walk into your bank and trade forex. It wont be the "I'm an idiot who think it's best to trade every day, and usually several times a day" type of trading. It will be more like position trading. The hitrate will be TONS higher of course since you have a frigging business bank with all their analysts and their fundamental analysis giving you recommendations. AND you will be trading in the same direction as they do.
What you do is to buy contracts.
Metatrader is the poor mans terminal at the crocked brokers for the "I think I'm going to make $5k in to millions" kind of idiots.
The fact is that 99,999% of the people in here are loosing their money on this crap. They are only driven by the fact that sites like this tell you it is possible. Sure it IS possible to daytrade forex, but it's just as much luck as it is skills. Money is not made by day trading crap, they are made by investing. If you want to learn investing, pick up "the intelligent investor" and "security analysis" by Benjamin Graham on amazone. If it's good enough for Buffett, then it might be good enough for you?
Good luck, I guess I'm getting banned for telling you the truth here, so I wont be around to answer any questions. (and it's ok, because FF makes a living from all of these idiots, so I would have done the same)Ignored
