Hi Leigh, In the other forum there is a gentle and intelligent poster (a woman), using an interesting trading approach and posting with a style that somehow remembered me some of your posts. I thought she could be you though, among other ...

Hi Leighsww, I think the information in the following post (and thread) is useful for every trader (about NFA capital requirement). I am subscribed to this thread and read it regularly. Hope you find it useful too. url

Hi LuSan, Wise words. Prudent decision. Remember though that fti has no copyright to the concepts he taught. They are as old as the market. There is no need to rush into a "get rid of" attitude (I think you are not doing this). Do it your own way. ...

I think we (both) will not let it go so easily. Scripts may be fixed and we can try again, can't we? Stubbornness may be converted into the virtue of perseverance..

LuSan, judging from your energy and enthusiasm about trading, I always thought you were 20 or something... . Congratulations, my friend. Now I think I am an old DEAD dog!!!

Thanks, Leigh, but... (...) 11) Uses sound and responsible Money Management. This includes cutting/limiting their losses and not risking more than they can afford to lose. Don't let money sleeping in the account. Reserve for contingency (rescues, ...

Hi Leigh, I don't know if this is of any help, but I think it is not the quantity of tests that matters most, but the quality of reasoning behind them. I know you do this very well. Beware of "overtesting". The possibilities are infinite and there ...

Hi LuSan, thank you. Glad to know you don't think some of my ideas are pure crap, lol. Keep going too. You are on the right track, I am absolutely sure of that.

Hi Leighsww, I wasn't upset by fti's post. I found it sadly ironic that he spent 5 million with sophisticated theories and processing power when all he maybe needed was a good simple plan and a home PC. I may be wrong. Then I'll know it soon. Thank ...

OK, I think I will have coded the basic "safe" version of my EA until the end of March, at most. Before that, I am having a hard time concentrating even on daily work, lol. So a more committed partnership is impossible for me now. Just an ...

Hi Leighsww, I am not sure if I understand correctly your "script" (in the MT4 platform a code that runs continuous and automatically is an "expert advisor". A "script" executes only once for each hot key press). Do you sell if the price reaches ...

Yes, it uses down averaging. You may observe that down spikes coincide with up spikes. That is because the algorithm trades both directions, building a cushion for harsh times like these. It profits steadily in all market situations, except one: ...

Hi Scott, If it doesn't take too much of your time, could you please take a "math look" at this? Please disregard or ask me to delete it, if you want. Thanks.

LuSan, I see clearly, now and from the beginning, that you are an open minded person. I have a strong empathy with this. You are young and full of energy. Keep up your excellent work. This is a long and winding road. Some people get there faster and ...

I hope the NFA do their true work (fight FRAUD and bad brokers commercial practices) and stop nosing in the way we should trade. I have a smooth running EA that will have to be rewritten if this crap passes (or move funds away from USA). By the way, ...

Proposal to phase out Hedging
