cryten, may you narrow me to Spudfyre's way? or that is whole thing?
btw - great trades today (ops.. yesterday ) and noticed possible exit @ cross of T3
pipped 200 pips on 6 trades...
"20 Pips by Spudfyre I aim for 20 pips per day. That's about 400 pips a month.
I take profit at 7, 14 and 20 pips on my early trades in the day. In other words, I wait until I am up 20 pips and set my stop loss so I make 7 pips, then if I am up 30 pips my stop loss is 14 pips and then I decide to either grab my 20 pips or ride the market some more. When it is up 35 pips my stop is set so I take my 20 pips. I am going to trade 4-5 times a day so there is no need to try and capture all 20 pips in one shot, so I chase opportunity.

After that I trade for what I call my pip bank. The 20 pips a day is my core income. If I make 50 pips in a day, 30 pips go into my pip bank. This way, if I have a bad day, can't trade or decide not to trade I take it out of my pip bank.

My pip bank also lends me pips if I go negative. I have to pay my pip bank back on any pips I borrow.

That has worked for me very well, so thought I would share it."

just a quick tip. Copy the whole VT TRADER directory from your home computer to flash drive (i use 2 gig) and start from there. it works for both VT and MT. i use it at work. I can not install anything on my computer...
Hey thanks! I'm certainly going to look into this. Great alternative.

Can you minimize/switch drives quickly or is this a problem?

Thanks again for sharing

(and thanks cryten for the pm about this post but I guess you won't need such a set up with your new job LOL ---> how did the tests go???)

yes, I have acc with MBT - same as EFX - spread varies between 2-4 (normal market conditions) but you have to add commissions (USD based = 2x$5 per round trip=1 pip) but with GBP pairs it is (regard of price @ the moment of course) 2x$10.07 right now - 2.33 pips nearly...

example for calcs with e/chf "Use EUR/USD's current rate at the time the position is opened for EUR/CHF, keeping in mind that with an exotic, we reference the base currency's relationship to the US Dollar:
Formula: Deal Size X Deal Rate of EUR/USD X 0.00005
http://www.mbtrading.com/i/dotclear.gif
100,000 shares (10 lots) x $1.3310 x $0.00005
$133,100 x $0.00005
$6.665 = $6.67 commission"
thanks for the info

TRIPLE

However, there is MAJOR philosophical problem here, cause then you'll need to change your motto "sack the boss" since now your boss is what you wanted to sack your boss in the first place trading forex for a living, albeit for someone else. Or will you keep your motto hehehehe and get ON THE JOB TRAINING (while being paid of course) to accomplish your initial (machiavelic) plan WHILE YOUR BOSS IS ACTUALLY HELPING YOU ACHIEVE IT FASTER. Too awesome!!! LOL

I recommend you go read (if you haven't done so already) the thread about real life trading for a living/trading for a broker/bank (can't remember the exact title and I gotta leave in 1 minute), excellent posts in there, quite enlightening. If you can't find it, I'll post the link later.

Keep us posted as to your progress with this new life opportunity!!!!

Hallo Kozbara!

I guess you do not know, but this site of Felix Homogratus that you are quoting/promoting there is not a decent basis for a decision and/or a place for balanced journalism. Homogratus uses it to promote his friends and associates and to harm everyone who may be in the same field of business that he is in. He constantly erases positive statements for his "sworn enemies" and keeps ratings biased. Nothing personal here. Good night!

Thanks for info, I am new in Forex and do not know about Felix.
I found this site while surfing on net.

There is no problem in it. Let say you shoose the program you work with and the second program is VT Trader for instance. Then click alt +Tab quickly and you quickly flip between two programs. If you hold Alt and press Tab then you will be able to go through the programs currently opened on your computer. Hope it helps. Happy trading.

edit: and seems for your too...
thank you for the info, interesting

one of the reliable signal from system (looks like): if you get qqe signal on all jpy crosses on 5m tf - may enter in trade immediately... at own risk of course

I downloaded them and installed them one more time in case I missed something.
I get the alert from the alert from QQE alert_mtf2.
but I want the alert of the dot when it appear, this one is not working.
it worked sometimes when I start MT4 or I switch between charts only.
thank you.
Hi Abou,
did you still experience problem with the template and alert ? ...It's strange because for me it working fine.
Is someone else experiencing the same issue as Abou ?

One thing I have noticed VT Heiken ashi candles I find are far superior in VT. You can instantly see by the shadows when the market is in a chop or consolidating. The HA candles for MT always look like their in a perfect trend.

For MT users you have a zillion indicators, maybe replace HA candles with some other tool that helps you spot the conditions.

Need a MT spokesman for this thread as I'm not qualified! lol

(Skyline your work is perfect, I am commenting on the actual difference between official MT HA candles and the ones for VT)
Yes Cryten I saw that also when looking in VT platform.
Heiken Ashi in VT is definatelly better in VT than in MT, but I don't know what we can use instead of. Do you have any idea Cryten ?

Abouelzelouf, are you sure about that?
Because for me thing happens like that: when qqe crosses AND candle CLOSE we have dot appears, mean dot not will appear before candle (cross candle) close.
I am not sure when QQE Alert v1.ex4 exactly give alarms, but for me seems it makes this in same way.
It is possible if QQE Alert v1.ex4 havent wait for candle close to make alarm and then (if candle close but cross isn't valid) we do not have a dot but got alarm.

Skyline may be clear on that.

ufff... my English, sorry

skyline did a great job by adding an alarm to the blue and magenta dot. when a new dot appear you will have an alarm sound saying short signal or long signal.
I am not talking about the QQE_Alert_MTF_v2
I am talking about QQE Alert v1

I don't understand what is better on VT abt HA. Please comment picture I've attached. The differences are only abt different data feed (or at least that seems to me)

It's really strange Abou You seems to be the only one that are experiencing this issue
Maybe you are receiving some errors in your Expert/Journal tab , could you check ? Are you sure to have the long.wav, short.wav into sounds folders ?
Try to do this procedure :

-Close your platform
-Delete old QQE Alert v1 from your indicator folder
-Copy the new compiled QQE Alert v1 (it's working now in my platform) into your indicator folder
-Open platform, pick a pair on M1 so that signal should appear more frequently and you can check more faster and put only the QQE Alert v1 on chart. (the alert will give you only sound alert since the Enablevisualalert is set to false but you can change it if you like to receive also the popup)
-Check if there's some errors reported in the Expert/Journal tab of your platform

Let me know if you still get some problem
