I am sure you wont be trading that way with a US$10,000 trading account like Big E.

If you want to run trading robot EA, Big E made it very clear about why he did not trade with EA trading robot.

The size of the account does not matter. When applying the same method on a small account or a big account the result's will be the same.
How do you know I will not trade that way emmanuel? That is how I am learning now to trade and this how I like to trade. Why change.?

Trading robot EA? That is BigE's view point. I see where that come's from. You think I am using a expert advisor to trade for me. Well emmanuel I am not that good programmer to write profitable EA neither do I have the buck to hire a programmer or buy a EA.

And If I was using an EA, I would not bother to be on a public forum, trying to convince member's that this method is profitable. I would be on some beach sipping pina coladas and admire the local fauna and flora.

@Tekkies,

There are things I know learn about you reading and also by following all your posts here in Forex Factory.
You may recall that 'Divergence' post you made. LOL.
You have not fully understood every one of Big E' posts yet and you really do not know the man from his posts. The way you keep re-quoting his old posts and making remarks. The frequency you have quoted post#647 is very telling.
I don't think you have reached the level to explain post#647 with live charts in live market. Let us see how you use post#647 and interpret what that post mean to you when you see live charts starting from next week. This would be interesting for all people here to learn from you since you keep saying that trading the way it is laid out will be profitable.
I can tell you most newbies have problem with that post#647 and how they use that in live market trading.

Good luck.

Things in the Korean seas are getting hot so better to close ll trades before NY session close for the weekend. Anything can happen, just a matter of time.

I just close my last basket of 4 AJ trades and took 2 small losses. Overall this week up 14.8% and the past 44 trading days is up 22%.
Cannot complain as I meet my 10% profit for my 20-trading days cycle already. So I am in the 5% for 2 consecutive cycles.
Next week will start a new 20-trading days cycle. Can happen the next cycle I will be in the 95%.

Check out my Trade Explorer here in FF before I close that soon and move to Fx Blue.

To all those who PM me, please be patient and I will reply you all this weekend.

Also if you are pondering about the new thread, be patient too. I know some of you are not patient and it is not good. Trading success requires you to have patience.

{quote} Congratulations!, yo've put TMS to shame. Your system is way more simple Changing the matter, I've seen similar claims on other threads where the OP says, he's making like 10 000 pips per week; but he doesn't say, he is actually opening like 100 positions at the same time with yocto lots LOL. They count the pips as if they were standard lots but they're trading with nano lots, so I think they should call it nano pips not normal pips. In my opinion, they should use: 1 pip= 10 $ 1 Mini pip= 1 $ 1 Micro pip= 0.1$ etc....
hello ReverseFlash,

If I am not mistaken, hmm... you were saying about those posted trades with outrageous gained pip totals from multiple smaller lot entries. It is okay if a trader only wanted to emphasized that those total pips were just simply a sum of total pips based on each lot entry from one pair alone and not the real totality. It means, if you simply look at the actual amount gained from those total number pips, they would know what I said here. The OP seems not to accept it (maybe because of ego - not to retract earlier view on this one). However, lately or sometime ago, on a contrary to himself, when he suggested to base its SL on the amount and not on pips. This is fine, I just hope he can apply the same approach with regards to pip totals... meaning, it should calculate this from the total amount of gains or amount equivalent based on total lots (e.g. 0.05 lot x 5 entry, or 0.05 + 0.02 + 0.03... etc) for each traded pair. But, as other traders would say "No matter what... at the end of the day, a gain is a gain" ; )- ...as long as it meets each of its own expectations.

By the way, this post might draw him back here to reply on you or me because the way he reacted every time an FF member questioned about this thing on his thread.

Anyway, I like this movie tough guy, Christoper Walken... dancin' to the tune of a song by FatBoy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" ; )-

You're right about the sum of total pips but I don't know who you're refering to. ⊥

Besides seems our TMS "purist" has just lost his grip about strictly following BigE's way.

Because

eelfranz:

1: Didn't use any EA.

2: Didn't use Trailing Stop.

Quoting eelfranz
The old Trailing Stop... sorry but I don't use them...
3: Took maximum 3 trades per week.

I only took 3 trades last week and made over 250 pips...

Hahaha! Doppelgnger!

We may be pointing to a different OP but their outlook when it comes to pip totals seems the same.

Now, with regards to Tekkies... I had enough of him. He's on my ignored list. He can reply to my post whenever or whatever contrary or baloney type of post he does or reply to me... I don't care at all.

But you're right with regards to that fanatic "purist" losing his grip on preaching about Big E's way.

Are we reading the same post's?

Emmanual is crying about ea's

True

No... but it's not a bad idea. I just don't personally...
3: Took maximum 3 trades per week.
I only took 3 trades last week and made over 250 pips...
Great that was last week.
What about the other 51 week's in a year? Does green gross red only 3 times a week on a H1 or H4 chart?
If I see a set up... green just crossing red I'll take the trade
4: Only traded 8 pairs
Yes he did and where did he instruct member's only to trade those 8 pair's.
https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...74#post4570374
I'd say pick the charts you like to trade and understand their movements... breathing patterns...

Flash why are you negative?
Is it because I am trying to trade like BigE and somehow getting it right. That I am proving to member's that BigE's method as laid out by him does not required all the extra rubbish that members are posting, including indicator's with a lot of useless information.

Are you just vindictive because you can not trade the same way that BigE has laid it out.
By the way Flash you have only posted 22 post's. None of those post's have any information on how you use TMS or TDI. Yet you are very fast to criticize member's.
So way don't you do some trading with TDI first and post those chart's. Make it more then one trade. Surely a trader with your knowledge of Trading Made Simple it would be a breeze in the park.

Holy Grail Simple System 3000 pips per hour easy. I came up with a new $imple $y$tem and want to share it FREE {image} SPACE FILLING UP FAST! WHAT DO YOU THINK?
I forgot to tell you all that it is an EA. When the blue 1H is blue it is making pips and if it changes to red the EA shuts it off so you never loose money. When 1H goes blue again...your account gets pipped...automatically....The EA automatically changes and increases the size of your position too. (CAUTION: WHEN AND IF THE 1H GOES RED, YOU COULD LOSE UP TO 3 PIPS MAX!)..Plus when the 1H is blue there is a soft sound like the bells ringing on a slot machine...I put that in there so when you go to bed you can listen to it and get a good nights sleep. (You can select to turn the bell off but why would you?)

The paid EA version automatically changes which pair it trades....so if for example EURUSD is kinda slow and AUDUSD is moving better...the EA switches over.....to AUDUSD etc....

I am working on the next generation EA that will trade all currency pairs at the same time....

I got to go now..I just got a PM that some bank someplace wants to talk to me....

Hello Emmauel,
I am not very active in FF but I can tell you I always try to read your posts whenever time permits. Your knowledge and help to all the forex trader community is wonderful. Please keep sharing. I notice there are some negative posts recently and hope you will not get distracted by those posts.
If you start a new thread, please let us know.

He has just basically admitted, he's not trading exactly like Big E but with the way he understands Big E's posts individually like #647 lol

Problem is: will it be helpful for a new member to follow the advice from someone who interpret BigE's posts the next way:

Question is: a person who misses this simple detail could be really able to fully understand eelfranz way of trading only by re-quoting his posts?

I don't think so.

Good luck.

I think the key word here is newbies. The newbies will have difficulty trading pretty much any system, so this is all natural and part of the learning curve.

Big E mentioned babypips school several times and this suggestion probably should have been included in post No. 1.

There is something else that needs to be taken into account: all this "newbies" confusion could have been avoided or minimized if people followed the OP wishes and either did not change the original system or did all of those changes in a separate thread without hijacking this one.

Come on, give man a break.

For the majority of us here English is not our native language. He confused the discussion at the time and the member's name. Stupid mistake, yes, but still does not invalidate his posts (well, the ones that are on topic, at least ).
