Scalper challenge

Well thats not very interesting then, im very picky about my live account entries

I dont think its nice behaviour for the clients to join scalps if the service provider makes em pay pips for the signal, not much left after that. Asked the rentasignal guy about it but he havent responded yet, making me think they are very unserious, not crunching the numbers to see what the profits would be for their clients. It would perhaps seem then that they dont have have their clients interests at heart. And from what i learned from a bit of surfint, the clients are often not very aware of how much 2.6 pips is to deduct from a scalp, at least not from the scalps i take. And if it is the case that the clients would operate on 0 spread, i would want to trade quite differently, which way it is i dont know so i wouldnt know how to adjust my trading accordingly. Also i would adjust entries depending on how good the broker is.

aa,they want to load up on commissions
the rent a signal is owned by fxcm

i just got my debit card,put 50 bucks in it,for oanda

Welcome to real money, your trading will become a lot more cautious and you'll 2nd guess everything and only some how actually take the losers!!


It's great

haha
thanks for the welcome


hows ur trading been turveyd

Ha ha so true

E/U economic summit, just as a was going to go live full on again!

Aaargh

Double AAArgh wrong script, quadruple the size, and of course its a looser!

I see now how ridiculous it was of me to trade the way i did 2 weeks ago.

how different are u now copared to before
man trading is all about experience
u will learn a lot of patterns

esp when u trade live,i traded live for about 2 years,and learned evrything much ebtter than on demo,but of course these 2 last momnths on demo
have been very good
i learned so much,and im still developing my strategy as i notice and learn new things

Well i was all "No im not gonna buy into the hwole idea of trend." Because i saw no coherent way of understanding it, since i was looking at other peoples ways of understanding it. I still dont agree about a "one" trend or two, or even 67 trends, but i am starting to realise what sort of impact the idea of trend has on human behaviour. I come to think both of HG Mead and another social psychologist, a swede named Johan Asplund. Asplund was sort of inspired by Mead, but Mead in turn has be violated by lazy and crazy people who dreamed up a crazy teaching called "Symbolical interactionism", in which everything we imagine as humans can be described in how we interact with it as symbols, which is totally violating almost every bit of razor sharp logic the Mead employed.

Asplund talks about the cycle of fascination and boredom and describes it very well. Mead talks among other things about how people react to other peoples behaviour and then the other people react to the first once behaviour and then there is a reaction to that and so on. It all means that all human behaviour is a reaction to a chain reaction. That is the essence of the exponential function in price and everything influenced by people and their behaviour, the fact that we react to reactions, in effect strengthening the first reaction. Meaning a counter move to the trend behaviour is always harder to calculate upon, rather then to calculate on the trend behaviour itself. I can very easily illustrate this:

Take a chart, any TF, any instrument, add MAs say 10,20,30,50, 75, 100, 150, 200. Ok the deeper price moves into it the more difficult it gets. Its a very general rule, but that is the field, that things going on in there is the behaviour of the trend, all and every of its aspects can be read in that field. And that field is less volatile then the bits outside of it. There is not much reason in determining the way price will head, its sufficient to determine where less volatility ensues. Therefore the particularities of everything that needs to be determined is within the field of those MAs, or say another set of MAs. But its important that they are exponential to some degree since human behaviour is exponential to some degree.

Well price will probably sort of head the way of the MAs of course, but their relation in distance is what describes trend behaviour. Or something like that. Well thats not to far from my calculations on envelopes hwo are calculations on price distance FROM MAs, but perhaps rather more important is the distance BETWEEN them.

heres what i see,i really dont look at the trend,or sorts
i just look at if theres more buyers and sellers,and what its participants(movers)would do in a situation like today,the things that influence them(economic activity,stop hunting)one bank knows how other banks will react to a particular news release,like u said a chain of behaviour
try reading darkstars thread if u havent,
he really knows the whole thing how and why prices move and the biggest players,other orderflow threats too are good

it really depends from how far we view the particular situation from,from the ground where the game is played,the top seats of the grandstand or the middle of the grandstand
then u gotta take that view an put it in the speed the game is played

theres a guy that best of sport mathches
he made millions
he even owns a jet worth 20m from betting on sports
what he does is send his scouts on the mathces and check out the game play,whos injured whos not,can they do without him,how good is the coach,the field played,the fans,
evrything
then he also manipulates the price of the bet
by bluffing his bets,as he tries to get a cheaper deal
his room has 3 computers which give prices,4 tvs where he watched mathces
the guys incredible
he started betting when he was young,his whole personality was based on betting and winning,surving on the street,and he was poor too,.

Yeah its a crazy world we live in, luckily its time for change.

Fixed level S/R ALWAYS bugs the crap outta me, sometime i forget about em even though i have it on the chart and sometimes i take them way to seriously. Im thinking on making a thin line for them, and every time price hits em and doesnt go through and goes back away for a couple of candles then i add one extra thin line. So when for instance it has hit twice and held i can see it instantly that there are 2 lines, and if it hit 3 times there are 3 lines. Of course i need to put them really close so that they dont take up more space then they actually do. Anyone have a better idea cause it feels like everyone has some kind of way to deal with this?

Anyway im getting really fed up with that damn 1.38 to 1.3813 area ive been looking at it almost for two days now.

I dont kow about you guys but candlesticks that look like the above picture is much more annoying to look at then the candlesticks in the below picture even though they are the same.

try using trendlines
they really are the best
sometimes u will notice the price bounces off the trendline cross

ny is really smooth to trade
no wonder u make loads
with ma

Havent seen much i can trade today, but some.

what a crazy day today
totally against the fundis

Yah mon thats why i dont do the fundies, the funnymentals as they say.

Man i really gotta get a better spread, like today i think i gave about half to Alpari i dont even want to count it, thats just not good.

Im trying on 4 pairs on M1 at once, on the demo. MAN alpari can not keep up with that, "requote" "trading context" busy all the time.

Spread is making it nearly impossible though at night, but i like a challenge.

Dont have time to analyze indies much so i just go with intuition and fractals.

Alchol i probably detrimental to trading skill.

21:49 Swedish time: Got tired of the fractals and all that, im gonna have a try with only price and lets see what happens. Maybe ill get into the zone like Atheer.


Hey Turveyd, whats up how is your MAs doing!?
