{quote} What is the spread on FXCM for DAX, on my broker, Tickmill, spread is "10" pips where as for EU, average is 0.2 pips, so DAX is untradeable on my broker.
spread is 1 dax point (ex 11634 - 11635). no fractions, just full points

we could..
but I'm waiting for the cad news, moving SL very very close

edit:
3 eu pos out at SL.
holding uj

here in Italy there is a saying:
chi troppo vuole, nulla stringe
(something like: if you try too grab too much you'll end up with nothing...
not literally, but it's work)

DAX (renko 10)

no trades today due busy day @ work.
I didn\t expected to retrace so much after yesterday's big crush

my bias was to sell only anyways. still have to learn to be more flexible and adapt when market speaks!

As long as you are not getting pips from the EU you and I are ok, take pips from any other pair you like and some one else's family will starve not mine.

I think your italian saying was referring to some thing else other than PIPS, same number of letters even sounds the same begins with a T.

Thanks, you are right. i was just reading the spread indicator which was saying 10 pips, it is actually the same as you and every body else 1 DAX point.

EU +45+96. +2. +31. +25+20. +25+16. +17. A few pips and I got my tomatoes done as well and it is only Wednesday.

Buy the Rumour Sell the News. That is what they say, only problem was distinguishing which was Rumour and which was News, so I bought the 1st story then I sold the denials.

The last trade I closed manually, priced had not moved more than 3 pips in either direction for almost 30 mins.

Not happy!!! My platform froze during todays AUD announcement. It was one of the beautiful huge trends that mean I can take the rest of the week off. I was just waiting for the chart to cross the moving average and place my trade. But my platform froze. Called my broker IC Markets here in Australia. They reckon the ea that makes the renko charts could be the problem. Has anyone else had similar issues?

The ea I use is Renkolivecharts_pimped_v4_13

I did win the consolation prize and caught the last little wave down. But that was bread and butter not steak and champagne.

I researched Trade Managers over the weekend. I came up with 2 commercial ones. at the moment I am trying out "TraderAgent" which appears to be $99 but gives you a 30 day trial period, if nothing else you can get a feel for what a real trade manager should be like and one that actually works!! Masters Degrees or Babel Fish translators are not required to figure out the settings. Have a look for yourselves. here is a link to videos. https://www.youtube.com/results?sear...deo_view_count Here is a link...
Thanks Dee for this information..Looks most interesting....Looking forward to your evaluation of the 2nd program.
Cheers,

the RENKO EAs that create offline charts are notorious for freezing during high vol moments including news. It is one of the main reasons I have shelved this system until I decide on a non MT4 platform and broker. It is a great system, but the limitations of MT4 can be costly in terms of opportunity costs (missed trades while freeze), slippage etc.

hi panamamike!!
how are you?
It is a little than not we see you here... !!

Betavier,
I also found problems in the past with mt4 renko and hi volatility times.
with a new computer goes pretty smooth, bought for another cpu-stress job, then quite powerful...
for security I hold for two (or plus) mt4 instances, always one without renko and indicators, only naked chart and mt4 on iphone.
especially with news coming.
we say that if I have to act quickly have three options if necessary...
but we always hope that things are going the right way!

This is also why I avoid entering on the news...
my 2c

EU+18.+17.+50+45. So far today. Traded the channel to start, but BRN was an obvious barrier, the pullback made me sweat but then the channel breakout confirmed the move, that's when the hot flushes stopped, then it was just a case of leaving things alone. Next up News, after that done for the day.

Glad to see your still around, thought you might have taken your vast trading fortune and donated it to the sandinistas, (I have a feeling that is either the wrong country or the wrong era)(or both)

hahahahaha...wrong country, but I fully remember the era. As I mentioned before, I stopped this strategy on MT4...I just don't like using the offline chart EAs. Maybe the problem was my computer, broker, or whatever, but I will return once I set things up on a different broker and platform. It is a very good system.

That being said, good trading to you all. I had scripts created to semi-auto trade this system and an EA as well, so I could trade it a s mechanically as possible and get as good of an entry as possible.
