My trading NFP was short and fortuanately profitable but only a few pips. I had closed all my positions well before news and was happy to have grabbed 23 pips in GbpUsd. Then on the news release i waited for the big candle to close and waited for a 5m inside bar to form and close and saw that take place on the EurUsd pair so got in short at 1.3003...but then as we know it just sat there! LOL after nearly four hours of waiting i got out with +11 pips after it retraced back up from the 1.2980 ish bounce.

Looking at what took place on my IBFX chart i din't dare get into the GBP after news as there was/is a large gap in the first 5m candle. Though my VT and AccuCharts looked ok.

Pretty mellow NFP after all the rucas over news speculation? It seems like the big boys new what was going to happen and much was already priced into the market by news release.

Thats true Thom. The news was old news.

Theres a disturbance in the force. Feel it, i can!

I was quite pleased with IBFX during NFP. I'd placed a straddle 2 minutes before. Everything froze on the news release and nothing happened at all for 5 minutes then the server awoke telling me my sell-stop had been filled at the desired price and my TP given at 60 pips.

That is very encouraging news cgldsmth. I was very upset with IBFX because they freeze every time there is major movement in the market. I can't help but believe that is by design. But to hear that your orders were filled properly, certainly makes me feel better. Thanks for your post.

This is a suggestion that I would like to run by Preacher and TraderBill...

Not all of us can be in the TS room full time, since most of us still have day jobs. I do my best to get into the room as often as I can, even giving up sleep at night and caring for a 2 week old baby. I'm changing diapers as I'm watching the charts on my laptop that is sitting next to the crib. I grab a few hours sleep and I'm off to my job where I have to secretly trade. I even trade from my car when I am on appointments during the day.

I say this only to make a point that some of us just can't be there all the time, but it is not for a lack of motivation or dedication. Noone wants it more than I, I assure you.

This leads me to my point... It seems like everytime I leave the room Orange shows up and drops and timeless pearl that is crucial to our eventual success. I know Accrete tries to keep up, but it is alot of work to ask of someone to always make sure that we have the TS sessions available on his website for review.

Therefore, I was thinking. I know it uses alot of harddrive space to record a whole session, but most computers nowadays have more than enough room to spare. I was thinking that If I set my TS session at, say, 1:45 CST USA before the London open, on record and let it run I will pick up everything that is going on in the room. On those infamous occasions when Orange beams into the room and leaves us with his gold nuggets or when another member is giving us crucial information that we can learn from, the moderator could maybe note the time that it is taking place and when it is finished. Then, you could post in the forum these critical times. We could each individually bring up our own recordings, at our convenience, go to the time given in the post and do our lesson.

This is making a huge assumption that the moderators would be willing to do it and I understand if it is too much trouble. I am just thinking out loud here as Accrete had mentioned earlier on in this forum that he was looking for suggestions.

Just a thought. I just hate hearing that Orange was in the room while I am driving the baby around the block in my car to try to put her to sleep

It's like hearing that Santa Claus was in the neighborhood last night and you had a fire in the fireplace

Just trying to find a way to make it work...

I know that we can use the 6th candle on any timeframe, but especially on the 15M. I know that it is the 6th candle before the end of day seperator on our charts. I know we use it to draw a trendline to project the new days High and Low - at least I think I know the above.

Where I get confused is do we draw a trendline form the high of the bar or the Low of the bar? I know this is the starting point, but where am I dragging it to? Where is point 2 on the trendline?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Bill,

Couldn't hedge, I had tied up my capital to the limit already. In fact I had to dump a parallel trade on the Aussie to maintain my margin sufficiently to cope with the downturn. One of my accounts (at 200:1 leverage) got stopped out by the broker's automatic program, for a loss of about $300.00 hard cash.

This is the trouble with being poor. You try to get out, but the game is so tough it just drags you down again. As for being smarter, there's a saying: "If I'm so smart, why ain't I rich?" I'm as dumb as a post, mate.>>
You are not dumb, but your Money Management , is so bad, even I can see it! There is a very good thread here in the FF about MM. I'd suggest read it if not for now ('cause all the money are already tied up) then at least for future viser MM. I wish you good luck, and please forgive me for an advice you didn't ask for. Just couldn't watch you doing such a terrible mistake.
I guess, I am too late, well, then maybe others who need it, will pay more attention to MM. So I am just leaving this post, instead of deleting it.

BTW, riddles are a good thing. Instead of feeding you with the wisdom that has not been experienced by you, they (riddles) make you think and study, then the real experience kicks in! I love riddles, I am fan of riddles, they are like poetry and math in one. What a delight to have a good riddle solved!

I am very sorry but I was posed this question by someone else today and we can no longer allow people to set on the recorder and leave. There are some technical reasons and other reasons for this answer. I am working on having a pool recorder for those times when OrangeRoshan comes into the room. The problem is that we never know exactly when he is going to pop in the room and whomever we designate may be gone. It is an issue that we are trying to resolve. OrangeRoshan normally covers everything that he talks about in TS, again in this thread or somebody will make a post if anything new is mentioned. It is great that Accrete does what he does and we certainly are grateful, but like Accrete we are starting to be overloaded as well. In the coming week, when we are experiencing problems because of recordings, we will ask the user to reply several times before we take any action to remove the user. Steve, if this changes I will make a post here to let you know.

Thanks,
Traderbill

Thanks so much for your hard work and willingness to share. I'm sure all here appreciate it. One solution is to split the PDF file into sections and post separately. SRDC II Part 1, SRDC Part 2, etc.

Good Luck,

I love to see charts. It easy for me to learn when I can compare my charts to others. Many of my charts are silly also because I'm still new and honestly I would like to learn by getting some comments and feedbacks from the members.

IMHO, there no silly charts because everybody wants to learn and get feedback from other members.

If you were to ask me, I think we leave it as it is or member can use read only thread to post their chart.

Unless Master Orange post his chart daily.....

OrangeRoshan,


Thank you for the two new threads in the SRDC area. For those who have yet to see them, we have a new thread for posts and discussion of EA's and one for the same with indicators. I think it was a great move and will remove some clutter from the threads and let them get back to the intended message. I think all would have to agree that we have been filling the threads with information not associated with learning SRDC. I include myself in that comment. I would also like to see us return to posting 400 x 400 charts instead of the 600 x 600 that currently line these pages. In addition it is my very humble opinion that way too many charts are being posted but that is for you to decide.

Thanks for the new threads,
Traderbill
Hi Orange,

I am a bit confused about what things should be posted in the SRDC II thread now that we have a Daily Channel thread and Chart and Discussion Thread. Is the purpose of the SRDC II thread for you to post your lessions and charts only and for us as students, to only post questions and/or charts in reply to your lessions? I just think we need to be real clear on what should be posted to each thread. It seems to me that any general question and charts about SRDC can be placed into the Chart and Discussion thread. Specific questions and charts in response to your most recent lessions can be posted to the SRDC II thread and people wishing to share their current channel set ups can be posted in the Channel thread. One of the main issues/problems with the Moutiki Method is having 100 different threads in that section. I find it totally overwhelming and confusing. If possible, I would like to aviod that happening to this method. Orange, I do hope that you will closely monitor and control the number of threads that are added to the SRDC Trading Section.

Hi Dave,

There is nothing to be confused about. Its all very straight forward. When anyone wants to post their daily channel, they can post in the channel thread. When they want to post charts (anything with charts attachments), they can post it on the Chart thread. They can discuss anything about SRDC in this thread as long as it doesnt involve reference on charts.

I like to tidy up this thread to make way for new traders to browse more easily. As Mouteki method, I believe this is nothing like it. Im still here moderating it and teaching. Im not planning on running just yet. So, dave when I was you, i would focus on your trading and let me worry about these issues.

Again, Its best to focus on positivity. Now get back to your practice...

Dave,

The new threads are already getting some post and questions. I think up till about 3 weeks ago there was no a need for these new threads, but then some people were coming in posting chart after chart and it has been crazy since. If people would have looked at the charts already posted. some were clearly the same. I do have some of the same concerns as you with multiple sub-threads and the one I started was removed. I think Orange has taken an active role in moderating the thread. I think it will work out the same in the end.

Are you guys able to move the charts and the other items to the corresponding new treads from here?
I think its a great idea. Will be much easier to follow the masters teachings.

Thank you for the great organization of it all.
