A new Idea (May be funny)

Hey you all

I got my free account from cmsfx yesterday and I followed 5 min trend follower system for my first trade and ended up with +13 pips.

Today, I stumbled upon this whole new bright idea - As we all know, I am a complete newbie to forex and don't know my pips from my ticks, but, this fact did not deter me from going on a course of studying the charts and reading news and forming my own opinion - which I did!

That was when this brilliant ray of light shone through my right ear and passed right out of my left - BOING!

As I am such a newbie and don't know bollocks, every analysis I made must be horribly wrong? Yeah? HECK YEAH! So the course to take is exactly the opposite of one that I had derived through my analysis? YES!

You see, my ananlysis had led me to conclude that the CABLE would be in an uptrend, so using my new found insight, I went right against my judgement and sold gbp/usd at 2.0361 and closed at 2.0331, leading to a very happy ending.

So ye all newbies, take hope!

Now that's funny. I actually almost made an expert that would look at any trade I opened and open a reverse trade for twice the lotsize then would close both trades after 10-20 pips. Didn't build it as I figured that I'd remember that the expert was running, second guess the first trade and STILL end up losing the trade.

Those are deep meaning words!! Second guessing yourself hmmm... How about an expert that third-guesses the human ?

Yeah, thought about that one too. Could always check for new orders and have it randomly decide if the order is correct or the wrong direction. Then keep the order open or do the double reverse thing.

The problem with MT4 though is that the random number generator doesn't like new seeds (at least that's what it looks like in backtests) and thus you would aways get the same order of direction of trades ... e.g. if the first time you turned it on, it was buy-buy-sell, then the next time it would also be buy-buy-sell the next time you started it up ... would you start changing your trading pattern if you noticed that pattern in the expert?
