Dislikedhi all...
And petelearning found shakes live trading so interesting that he has gone to his own thread and doing a few trades of his own....
Others on Shakes thread consider large price movements "crappy conditions"
but its a NOW trading method....it should be all good as long as it moves.Ignored
DislikedCrappy conditions ? But shakes's method works in both trends and ranges !Ignored
Dislikedby my count he is even when counting spread, when u take commissions into account b/c it is an ECN, he finished down for the day. I am not too impressed considering that he averaged 452 pips a day when he was not being watched...that is the point, who wants to watch everyday...Also, 90% of the time he was using Candlesticks, which he recommened not to use..The times he scalped he got burned, he was saved by the last trade by holding for more than an hour. Marsh what do u show?Ignored
DislikedFirst of all, I have no bias towards him, I am just collecting facts. Aside from the losing positions earlier, he is holding this profitable trade and is collecting good money from it, there is not denying that. As far as "scalping the pip outta it", as far as I am concerned he is not doing that. He took a few positions early on and cut his losses short, but is banking on this large trade to carry him into profit. Looks like any old short term trending system to me.Ignored
