Hello TrAndy1. I have the same problem, not in size but in commission. I'm not sure what's going on currently in the forex market but it seems that the commission we have to pay is not only used for broker costs etc. I'm not sure if central banks ...

Reliable FX broker for larger accounts?

Yeah, thanks. I was wondering. Makes sense now. Thank you

What?? Can someone confirm, e.g futures of eur/usd have no swap??

Hi, old friend. I quitted GBP/USD. I checked it long term and found out that it is with GBP/CAD and GBP/CHF unfortunately the most less predictable currency out there, may be below 80 Pips moves you can make some money but I stopped that. I see you ...

Gold with No Drama

No, it's not that easy. Even If you risk only 0.2% per Trade you lose in long term if you don't know what you are doing. The experience of these losses - than can make you a winner but it has nothing to do with the 0.2% risk per Trade -except it ...

Trading for a living

I have to check quotes/spreads tomorrow on ibex...afterhours could be problem but they pay after close time so spread problem still exists then, at least for payment day. Found one broker with 6 points currently... not really attractive still

M1 Countertrend Scalping Strategy

From what my experience and backtest tell: In the night it is more silent, that's true but sometimes you have big moves like 60 or 70 pips without looking back - like on normal time (London, New York), too. It just don't happen that often but the ...

M1 Countertrend Scalping Strategy

I see your point. I have chosen BASF because a stock like that should not move like that. I see that quite often these days. I think algos mess it up a lot. Anyway coming back to your backtest: That is one of the hardest parts I can tell: Find a ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

The Problem with DIBS is, that you can hardly trade it below 1 hour candles (even 1 hour is too much in my opinion) so you have very few signals and your drawdown phase can be up to 2 months. Not sure how Peter was able in the 80's, 90's and 00's to ...

The DIBS Method... No Free Lunch continues

I checked FX-Options at Ava Trade very closely and I can say they earn their money with the spreads. They are too high, so you are always on the loser side, no matter what you do, except some exotic strategies. Very sad cause I would need them for ...

Highest Open / Lowest Open Trade

TooSlow knows the market really good - and that why lots of people here struggle. Also the technique is not as easy as you think. -There are lots of variables you have to figure out by yourself: WHEN is a valid entry after the signal to go in? Does ...

Highest Open / Lowest Open Trade

Hello my friend. My yearly analysis 2022,23,24 show that GBP/CAD and GBP/USD are a bit more dangerous to play with overdone markets. It's hard to gain on these statistics. They like, especially the GBP/CAD to overdo it a lot until the last one is ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

sorry I wanted to say sth. to gringo but I don't want beef so I leave it. Sorry PR31D, I know what you mean.

Anybody knows when in general the spreads are getting tighter after settling interest rates payment at 11pm (29 minutes ago). Spread for me currently 5.4 pips on EUR/USD.... when does it get normal again? I usually don't trade at that time but ...
