Let us assume that you are trading retail forex, and not the interbank market. If this is the case - as it is for nearly 99% of all of the traders here - then you are trading in a zero-sum game. Why? Because when you make money on a trade you are ...

Is trading a zero sum game?

Hello- I am interested in re-visiting this thread. Can anyone recommend a broker who pays exceptionally well? I know FXCM is meant to pay well, and Saxo, and Oanda pays by the second, but which broker pays the most? -PB

Which broker offers highest swap rates?

Good luck tomorrow. Anything else about your EA you would like to share....trend following? scalping? swing trading? momentum trading? What sort of trading does the EA do (or is it designed to do)?

Testing my EA development

Hello CMOON10, I recommend the private forum to everyone interested in trading. I've been trading currencies since 2000 and was profitable before joining the PF, but I am a much better trader since joining. The information is well-worth the monthly ...

Time — Hey Brotha- This isn't really a dumb question. Basically this 'indicator' (I would be more inclined to call it a tool - or an alarm) can be applied to any time frame. All we are doing here is drawing a line on the chart and saying "if ...

My Bat from team aphid trades

The template should work on all pairs as long as you are using Metatrader. As for if it "works" on other pairs, you should really backtest and forward test (as for all systems) to see if it "works" for you, as we all probably know, sometimes a ...

The Only Pivot

Thanks — Been watching this thread for a bit. I have also been using the original template and watching price. Last night took my first trade sold GBPCHF and made 23 pips. Thanks!

Using Linear Regression Channel

I have had the same issue, I think you need to set the MT4 indicator so that the trigger number is calculated using the same number of back-bars that GCTrader and others are using on the other platform. I think that the MT4 indicator was programmed ...

USDCAD TC short? — I like this sHs, though......looks tasty. The 200 and the 8 seem to have provided some resistance.

EURUSD — I know it is early days, as the 8 and 21 have only *just recently* crossed the 89 ema on the 4hr chart.......but is anyone thinking of a TC on the Euro? Or is everyone going short?????? It seems to me that if you look at ...

What is a reliable and sound system?

Hi- I don't think that Leon meant any harm by his post. As I understand that you are looking for a 'type' of system that fits your goals - at least 50% winners and at least 1:1 risk to reward ratio. Obviously, a 1:1 risk to reward that is correct ...

What is a reliable and sound system?

Try here; url There is a lot of stuff on DeMark floating around, especially the trendlines and Sequential.

(binned per thread starter’s request) TD Sequential

I think that I will do some extensive backtesting on this and check it out. I agree, we need years of data on this and see how well it might do. I will post back here in a few weeks (or months) with the results. I do manual testing in Forextester, ...

BB on Steroids

I was sort of hoping that comment might squeak by...... Well, honestly, the system I am thinking of doesn't take losses - it will simply blow up your account every 18 to 24 months. That, in essence, would be a loss. So...... I suppose there is no ...

"The Pip Nailer". Any time frame, any pair

No problem, Trader. The signals on the longer time frame charts are quite good. I really only look at 1hr and above now. I haven't seen a system that doesn't have losses (well that isn't entirely true), but this system is good because: 1. It is ...
