@Daaimali, your post wasn't ignored because you're a newbie, rather because everyone has their own trading style - with some intraday traders making profits going long and short frequently during the day. Your advice to 'not go long' wouldn't work ...

Hi Wdfx, Thanks and we are all 'rookies' as the day one stops learning, it's over. I'll just recite my actual experience on these forums for hopefully everyone to learn a lesson from. I started posting in 2009 or so, and learnt a lot through ...

Rather than repeat your request for a chart, just go and review the gentleman's (or lady's) last 10 posts or so on this forum, and compare what s/he said would happen to what really happened on your charts; and then start trading your own plan as ...

Nice question there @HalBot. And your question should be followed by all traders on this forum i.e. just as I cited in my original post earlier this week - previous experience has taught me that, before you start listening to or respecting any ...

You're quite right, and I only questioned the gentleman (or lady) because, in my time on commenting on FF, I came up against many traders who were willing to constructively challenge my reasoning, and a particular trader who just challenged for the ...

Any reason for saying he's 'wrong'? It's always helpful for newbies for a poster to provide a justification for a comment - as it helps others to improve their trading. That's what helped me years' ago when I used to post on these forums, and have ...

Hi Buddy! Long time since I last posted on FF! I agree with you, I don't understand why such a big company like Alpari should go down whilst others haven't fared so badly. Calls weren't being connected to their phone numbers during the Swissy drop ...

Buy limit order at 1.3490 since 13th May, so I agree with your eventual target. I'm not a day trader though and am just about to resume live trading after a long break.

Just back for this one post! — Not trying to stir anything, as I stopped posting a while ago when my usual thread became 'dormant'. Just stopped by to give my usual advice to my favourite bunch of traders, i.e. all you NEWBIES out there who ...

The Euro — Hi 50d! Trust you're trading well. I replied to your post on Saturday, but went to delete a paragraph later, and ended up pressing the 'delete post' option when I'd finished, as I was in an absent-minded haze of expectation that I'd ...

Monthly close — I've been watching for a monthly close around these exact levels too, though Friday's daily close suggests a close above 1.6050 on Monday, largely due to the continued weakness of the USD at the moment. I picked up a buy of the ...

Thanks — Yes, just stupidity on my part - but I will get there, and I'll view the spreadsheet - but my problem is less about understanding correlation than about not wanting to give anything back to the market. I can view any pair or ...

Err... — Yes, I am 'watching', but I'm not in a trade on it alas for some reason, and I spent all day on Monday coaching someone on why selling the pair (plus the nzd/usd) was a good idea - yep, go ahead and 'shoot me with an imaginary dart' ...

Just one question on interest rates — Why would the BoE view 'now' as the right time to raise interest rates? My simplistic mind is thinking the benefits of high interest rates is that banks benefit from higher interest rates from the returns ...

Hilarious! — Hilarious post as said already, and pleased to see it worked out for you, but not a technique to be recommended for anyone with a pacemaker! A 'little' bit of free time and a 'little bit' of cash...? In these market conditions, ...

Thank you, thank you, and thank you - specially for this: url Been a crazy day just watching the market today, so happy to do exactly that i.e. watch and learn till I see an opportunity that has more than half a chance of being successful. i

Tantalizing??? — Would have been much more tantalising if one had got in earlier but it didn't hit any triggers for me so I didn't wake up to enter a trade (middle-aged citizens need at least 8 hours sleep, fact!). Alerts still set for 1.0165 ...

Hi Sn Not quite 'top picking'per se. One thing that's rung in my head over the past few months from advice you gave me last year is 'what's my expectancy for each trade I place?' . That question really helped me no end, as I developed a 4 step ...

1.64... — So close, and yet so far! Still praying we dip one more time on this pair though this may just be wishful thinking on my part because I didn't catch the bottom of this pair's drop for the swing north while I was busy doting over my ...

Congratulations — Warm congratulations from this end! I really thought you're a grey 'old' man, with the amount of knowledge of FX you have; I'm obviousy wrong if you're just getting married. I've been off celebrating becoming a first time ...
