OK guys, take a look at my AUDUSD H4.
Where do you think the Aussie dollar will spend Christmas?
You can see my H4 upper and lower trendlines and the H1 upper and lower trendlines. And, and, and, OMG! Is that a stable?

Also, about that self-fulfilling prophecy rant. Imagine if you and the counterparty were the only people trading GBPUSD. What would the Price Action look like? If PA was coming up to fibs and you didn't trade them, what would happen? Are technicals a self-fulfilling prophecy? If you view the market as a larger example of this, as the buyers and sellers make up 2 individuals in the a market. Just something to think about....

I would place a Limit Buy at fib
38 with a 50 pip SL and made 700-800 pips. More than most high frequency traders make in a year.
We do not think things as pips. It's rewards & risks (ratio). Your example gives about RR 15. The same result can be done by the 5 pip SL in a one day.

Sorry if I offended you ScalpGuy. That wasn't my intention. Please see my quote again:

I have met very few profitable High-Frequency traders and most of them were Black Box Algorithms. I know there are probably many out there that trade high frequency and are profitable. I just have not met you yet. Probably because you are sitting in front of a M5-M10 chart with your finger on the trigger. Most people are medium to long term traders. And 99% of the liquidity/capital out there is long-term to very long-term.

You're correct I really am sitting but M1 & S15 TFs. M5-10 hides too much information for me.

Not offended. Was just my opinion...

Thanks Saxon, best thing I’ve had since Christmas. Yes it’s Boxing Day over here in Aussie and a very important cricket match against the English starts today. See you later.

I am from the same school of thought. I like to stick to the majors as there is more than enough to go around and if you can move when the smart money comes into the market-you can take some good scores.


I hope you and yours had a very Merry Christmas and I wish you a healthy, happy New Year!!!!!

I wish Saxon, calderone, Marc, Amy and the rest of ya'll the very best over the holidays (and beyond)

I hope you're all enjoying all the good food, the family, and the vacation.

I haven't posted much here on FF for a long time, and should make it as a new years promise to be more active here in 2011!

I've been working hard to save up for a small capital to get my track record started, I should be ready in a month or two.

Everything is good here, going to 'distance' school after new years as well. I'm taking a few classes, to use the 'free' time I have while I'm unemployed.

The very best wishes to you all from Iceland!

Peace~
