Additionally, unlike an options contract, surely the value of a future may be positive or negative - since the payoff may be either. If, upon the delivery date, the price of the underlying asset has fallen, you would be obliged to pay the ...
Does money actually change hands trading futures?
- Ponzi Jr replied Feb 5, 2018
Sorry, my mistake. I meant to say that if you too a short position on the contract (i.e. agreed to make delivery of the underlying asset), in which case the value of the contract (to you) would always be negative?

What caused this large gap on the EURUSD monthly chart?
- Ponzi Jr replied Apr 7, 2016
Also, are the last 3 candlesticks on this chart a bearish warning sign? Intuitively, I say this because: Traders who sold into the market before it gapped up, would have been trapped in losing positions during the following period These traders are ...

That depends on whether you learned something from your loss. I'm currently a student at university and, as such, a few hundred is a lot of money (to lose) to me. However, I've put as much money as I can spare into a trading account - expecting to ...
What is the most important piece of advice you've received?
- Ponzi Jr replied Apr 1, 2016
Absolutely. As with prior advice - I'd say "don't follow blindly" is good advice in any situation - not just trading. Though, I feel this is something that I do already (and is the reason I don't use Fibbonacci)

How effectively can volume be implemented in forex?

Terribly sorry for the belated reply with regards to your question about my S/L placement. Effectively, I saw it as a level at which I would no longer sell into the market, since it broke a resistance level that I had expected to hold. In hindsight, ...
Analyse my trade (GBPJPY Short) - was my logic good?
- Ponzi Jr replied Mar 20, 2016
Personally, I'd be tempted to say that it is price alone that determines a trend. For example, consider the following chart (GBP/USD, Daily): image Here, I'd argue that a downtrend began, following the peak circled. However, there is no linear ...
Do trendline breaks really have any significance?
- Ponzi Jr replied Mar 17, 2016
So concepts like momentum are not actually applicable to price? I find that hard to accept, given how many people talk about it.
Does it make sense to think of price movement in this way?

Thanks again for your help - I never realised that the Yen was considered a safe haven currency

Thanks for your input. Regarding your advice on Marubozu candles - why do you believe that the candle following a Marubozu is likely to be a retracement of it? I completely understand the logic that 'the market may be overextended after a Marubozu, ...

- Ponzi Jr replied Mar 16, 2016
Apologies for bringing up an old post, but would you mind explaining why sentiment is a more important consideration when trading Yen pairs? It's rarely a factor that I pay much attention to - I usually keep my analysis strictly technical.
Analyse my trade (GBPJPY Short) - was my logic good?
- Ponzi Jr replied Mar 16, 2016
Alternatively, I understand that the gradient of a straight line between 2 points is equal to the average gradient of price between these points. By this logic, we may assume that deviation from the trendline implies a change in the average gradient ...
Do trendline breaks really have any significance?
- Ponzi Jr replied Mar 11, 2016
My sentiment exactly. I had to google him 😁. As someone who bases trades almost entirely on technicals, I rarely pay attention to things like that. Perhaps I should though, to avoid trading around such events, in the interest of avoiding being ...
