Tony please clarify.

1. On first post (which i read carefuly) you stated not to use EA. Can you explain why? I mean, these simple rules can be implemented into an EA, why not to use it?
2. There are only 3 news (on first post) that would triger a big event. Do you just trade those or are there any others?

Thankx

The use of ea can generate errors. Remember that you have to constantly reconfigure your SL in the minute before the news comes out. I know an EA can do that but you don't really need it. To gain experience I oppose myself to EAs.

You have to pick the main news which generate the biggest volatility.

You know you have a good life when you reply to your friend: "Yea, I'm relaxing tonight... after a huge day of total relaxation."

It's pretty epic.

Tomorrow there's CAD unemployment rate - single release.

From the past 12 releases, 3 have been single releases non-coincidental with US NFP:


Fri, October 10, 2014 14:30:
UC had 0 pip spike and 33 pip bearish 1M candle
GC had 0 spike and 44 pip bearish 1M candle


Fri, April 10, 2015 14:30:
UC had 4 pip spike and 59,5 pip bearish 1M candle
EC had 2 pip spike and 65,9 pip bearish 1M candle

Fri, July 10, 2015 14:30:
UC had 0 pip spike and 33,6 pip bearish 1M candle
GC had 0 pip spike and 40,7 pip bearish 1M candle.

All other 9 releases from September 2014 to September 2015 were coinciding with US NFP, so statistic is not relevant.

Good luck !
Best regards, Zef

How many years did it take to reach that amount of money ? Did you used only news trading with this method or you gambled sometime please clarify.

Downtown Mtl it's almost 1am Sunday.. Gray sky... Raining from time to time... A bit chilly. Have you ever fell you seen it all been through it all? Time passes and things aint the same anymore... Time is our biggest enemy of all... Slowly doing it's effect... And by the time you know it and realize it, you're already old. The young ones! Live your life whether rich or poor and take care cause the clock has no pitty {image}
"....
Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking
Racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death
..."

"Time", Pink Floyd

P.S. I just saw that you were born in Bulgaria. I love this country - visit it very often.

Have a nice day, Tony!

Best regards,

In the thread's first post you say take-profit should be set to 120 pips, but the last rule in "How to trade" says "If trade succeeds, let it run for 150 pips". I am confused. Should I enter again after 120 pips TP is hit and set TP to 150 pips?

Thanks Tony for sharing. How long have you traded this way? Is it a live account? (curious because of slippage although Oan#a are good just wondering if it affects you? and what kind of success stats do you have? Cheers
Am also interested in. What success did you have and what time period that took you to achieve?

That can seem obvious but you know everything can change one or another minute and the expectations you had when opening short may show you goo result. Keep your hopes till the end!

Hi

I was just wondering is page 1 still up to date regarding recommended high volatility news to trade? I was just wondering what it being FOMC tomorrow if this is still something we should avoid and just focus on:

Cad Employment Change
Cad CPI
USD Non-Farm Payrolls

as instructed on page 1?

Edit: I think I might create my own personal list...

Locked and loaded, ready to go. Trading should be kept simple. It's always the simplest things that are the best.
