You will find that that I have already covered everything, along with live charts in real time...ie no b/s hindsight crap which anyone can do!

I haven't made that many posts here to make it that difficult to locate, so may I suggest read what I've already said and shown to save me repeating myself.

If you have a question that I regard as sensible and not covered thereafter then I'll respond, but I won't otherwise.

AU longs triggered just now on h1 LIVE! (3 pos'ns).

Not looking to be too ambitious because it is essentially a c/t trade against the longer t/fs in this case, so obviously has risk attached, but it does represent for me at least a reasonable opportunity with a reasonable rr using the simple stuff that I've shown and discussed previously without any need for TDI etc because everything needed to make a decision is already there, so why complicate it!

I won't be posting more btw, there are enough examples from my live trades to help develop something to suit your own style but in a simplified way now..... unless there is a specific and sensible question that anyone has, that has not already been covered.

I've been following this thread since the beginning and demoing the 1 hour & Daily method combined with Support and resistance and Major news announcements before I place trades, I can confirm that it has a success rate of around 40%-45%, that's me in front of the laptop for the majority off the London & US session.. The 1 hour method is full of false signals, the daily method is more consistent. Unfortunately this system hasn't given me confidence to use as my main strategy. In conclusion it's not a reliable system, which actually upsets me as I had high hopes and spent 100's of hours reading through. I'm not trying to persuade anyone or be bias, it's just my personal opinion...however my ultimate advice would be not to trust any strategy from online and see what works best for the individual....

I can confirm that it has a success rate of around 40%-45%.
It would be higher than that if you've picked one of the trending pairs and also used some chart patterns to help you with direction.
Support and resistance will eventually break.
If you expect them to hold, only go for the 1st touch of the zone and even then we are not sure if they will hold.
Also, have you considered limiting your risk to 30% of your winning size

(having a relatively small stop loss and more distant targets?)
The daily timeframe for example would have a large SL but a considerably larger target.
The idea is that when we lose we lose small and when we win we win BIG.

The problem with trying to follow a trend is that there will be plenty of false signals when consolidation/accumulation is taking place and while waiting for major news and policy changes to be announced or to take affect.
Chart patterns are useful in keeping us out from the chop, look at the daily.

Also, think of why price moves.
When there is a big run up, someone (or many) are buying but more importantly, someone BIG is selling
That someone BIG is a big bank and wants our money, price will often come back to the start of the move or to the other side of the zone.
Have a nice day

I absolutely understand what are you saying, but this could be related to 99,9% of strategies here in FF. None of them works in the long term if you blindly follow the rules. They even dont works if you would try to modify the rules and indicators. And I honestly backtested and forwardtest almost all of them (or at least all of those famous).
All traders succesfull with any strategy over here use some level of discretion for picking up the trades. Usually this discretion has to be on such perfect level, that they would not need any indicators at all.
This is more philosophical question about the value of technical analysis and indicators in its foundations....
If there will be any change of the holy grail in any combinations of any indicators, it would be already found, counting all the thousands of clever brains trying to find it and cooperating on this issue for many years on forums like FF, and we all would be billionares)
Only discretion, experience with eye on charts, will give you the little edge to be more succesfull then the rest of loosing traders. No combination of no indicators will give you this.

You said SJ was promoting a thing called guppy. That thing called guppy is nothing else but a bunch of moving averages. As for the DOTS, I think he was only trying to help put the odds in the trader's favor. He told me via mail about the DOTS, he used them , and then so was I. Then he told me to stop using the DOTS, because he had some nasty losses. So he did not promote the DOTS. If he did, he would have asked me to continue using them. Besides, he did not ask me to buy the system. He also attached the ADR pro calculator from Dean's site for free. I cannot speak for the others that you mentioned here as having hidden interests, but I know SJ was only trying to help, and if you try using that thing called GUPPY and learn how he used them, you may find great value in those MAs. I know I did.

Take care and don't be so hasty to jump to conclusions!

It is unfortunate that this topic is bleeding into death. I must say that I have always been skeptical about the method of Mehdi and I mean more not showing current and running positions. Only looking hindsight, everybody can! Never the less, the method is not bad, that's for sure. However the trader must do the job and that's the point. Take care everybody and happy Christmas in these horrible times of much terrorism. There is more than only trading and looking at charts the whole day.

Bye,

Yeah the threads dying for obvious reasons along with those you have mentioned, but it could be revived, it's up to you and others isn't it?.

You have made your complaint, plea and observations of this "vacant" thread.

YOU could for example post a live entry of your trade (as I have consistently done), what is stopping YOU doing so? If you are reluctant, then that makes your post redundant so far as I'm concerned (much like the hindsight b/s charts a couple of posts back....what a waste of time they are lol)

I realise you and others won't like my comments, but I will always be realistic and I make no apologies for that no matter how un-popular my comments are.

So, the balls in your court, and all the other lurkers btw, with an opportunity to prove youselves worthy by posting live charts with clearly defined stops and targets at the point of entry! You would immediately gain my respect for that, and even more in the event that a reasonable positive consistency of results was being achieved, and that is the ONLY way that credibility in any thread or individual can be measured in my book!

Dear Catalin

Thanks for your reply

It is good that you have been in contact with snarlyjack and he never tried to sell anything to you.

Please understand I have nothing against snarly nor the others.

I just ordered the facts as they happened:

Snarlyjack promoted DM stuff: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...71#post8592771

X-man promoted GSMA contest: http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=573137

Mehdi343 promoted his 'courses': http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...50#post9322250


Besides the ones who jumped to conclusions were FX Factory not me, since they made snarlyjack and the rest commercial members and I do not think they are turning someone into commercial just for fun.

Snarlyjack came back after a period of inactivity with another account snarlyjack3 and started to share Dean Malone's videos and indicators on the T.M.S thread and this is forbidden by FF Trader Code of Conduct even BigE had written not to contact Dean Malone as T.M.S was 180 different from DM methods.

I know someone with commercial interest here does not necessarily mean he/she is a scammer.

But I will definitely not trust someone who was not honest from the beginning, participating here as normal members and after some time revealing his real interests.

You know FX Factory has been full of very clever guru fraudsters like Jacko who people said was sharing 'helpful information' about trading until one day he dissapeared with all these people money and recently there was a famous panamanian thief named Alexis Ampudia who came here as GJscalper

http://www.forexfactory.com/showthre...72#post6690472
http://www.forexfactory.com/gjscalper

Fun fact is after people got scammed online, there are some ignorant idiots who go saying that those who got robbed deserved it for being too naive.
This is very wrong.

Personally I have never been scammed by someone on the internet but I think one labour as members of this community is to warn newbies that they can not only lose their hard-earned money by trading without MM or getting hunted by the brokers but also by blindly following gurus who may have hidden interests.

I am sorry that I have deviated from the subject.

In short:

I respect that you and surely others trust snarlyjack but I on the other hand choose not trust any user from here labeled as a commercial member.

Take care

Cheers
