It really is. I’m not even a newbie any longer and I still have trouble differentiating between the useful and useless things, I can only imagine how hard it is for inexperienced people.

Hi Guys,

I'm not sure if I'm at the right place, but I'm stuck and new at Forex Factory. I desperately need help with a new EA I'm working on which is using the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. I can share the strategy with you guys, but all I need is a shift of the entire indicator chart to the left. The reason for this is to detect turning points in the Tenkan Sen, Kijun Sen, Senkou Span A and B. Maybe my approach is not correct. If there is another way to detect the turning points, I would really appreciate your input.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Butterscotch,

Thank you for your response. Maybe my message was vague to start with. The Forex part is fine, that I know. What I actually referred to was the programming part of the current EA. I just needed help programming the indicator Ichimoku Kinko Hyo. I want this indicator to shift one candle to the left to get the cross points.

Can you maybe help me with this one?

Thank you very much!

how to open demo acc gys
If you're talking about MT4, install the platform, click on the "File" section of the drop down menus, then click on "Open New Account" and follow the steps from there. Obviously you need to choose the demo account option from there.

To start trading in the first run we should always be to try to learn on the run. forex business business risks are very high, so it is always trying to learn to run to understand forex managed. And indeed profits in forex it depends on the knowledge and capabilities of each trader

People say that it's better to try different platforms, but not the only one.
I started with mt4 and it seems to me the most comfortable tome now, that's why I don't switch to some other ones now. Still, I heard that ninja and ctrader are more easy to understand. But I'm used to mt so much now, that can't use others.
I'd advise newbies to try each platform and make their own conclusions

I have tried multiple platforms and I still find the first one I tried - MT4 - to be most suitable one for me. I find it very intuitive to use.

Generally, novice traders should start from basic level! According to my personal experience, BabyPips School is a good place for start with! Besides, new traders need to open a demo for practicing purpose! Demo is the most decent way of Forex learning.

As an absolute beginner, just looking at Forex to try to understand what's going on, can anyone offer layman terms advice on how to trade.
As a new trader; you need to start with demo! For learning; you can start with BabyPips School! This school is a free service, but too much effective, you may get here basic instructions on technical and fundamental analysis! On the other hand; be active on this form and try to read all of treads on market analysis; you need a good analytical power for being successful Forex trader!

I have not use any EA outside from the MT4 so I have no idea how the programming should be. The EA you are asking, I have never heard about it.

The first few years will be very tough. And don't think about making money in the early stage - I learnt this the hard way.

- Read up recommended trading books
- ForexFactory and Babypips
- Look up highly rated videos on youtube to get an understanding of the market, charting and practical application of various technical tools. Avoid using their system though unless it's for testing purposes.
- Develop a trade plan and trading system(s).
- Manage trades properly with proper risk management and good psychology.
- Review trades.
- Practise with a demo or small account until you get consistent results.

Watch a clean chart over and over again for a period. You can cut many time to ignore most of the avaible here. In other words, be selective. This must not take years, before make constant profit. The mental development is the key.

Practice only demo for the first time to get a clue what you are doing and how to trade your method. No simulation can increase your mental building for the trading.
Start with a smart real account and prepare to have a hard time not loosing all, if so take this as lesson.

Before you going to install one indicator, take a break and think about it. What can you tell a single candle and in context with other candles?
Perfection is the enemy of good enough!

Yes, agree. Pips is one of the active forum where you can solve your any trading question. As like you I also prefer Lexis description about any topic.
