I'm probably teaching you how to suck eggs but I wasn't unduly concerned with the timing. News release kicks can sometimes take a while to brew and this may perhaps have been one of them. This is a hard one...as the spike straddles the sell off ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Absolutely, FTI. I have a high regard for you but being a lawyer, I have to see proof of anything. Its kinda wired into me. But hey. that was a cool learning curve for me even though it seemed like we were duking it out. Take it easy.

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Don't ever place a stop loss at a round number. You are asking for it.

Experiences with FxPro

Yeap. I see that spike at that sell zone. Nasty bugger. I'ld have taken my stop loss above the wick of the stopped candle (the only risk then would have been manipulated spreads...but thats life I guess...you do the best you can)...but thats my ...

I don't reckon Sun Tzu is all he was cracked out to be or else the Chinese would not have abandoned agrarian collectivisation in preference for infinite growth on a finite planet. The greatest philisopher in human systems was Karl Marx who ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

You people are seriously deranged. Its everyone elses fault but yourselves. Its common knoweldge that the wholesale market is manipulated by CB's...they even advertise that fact. I am sure brokers play with spreads when liquidity is low (and data is ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Theres the old saying. A picture says a thousand words. Post the chart with the unwarranted moves.Thats all I am asking you to do. Mate....I would dearly love to be educated and proven wrong. I want you to prove me wrong in fact and learn. I am ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

And if you think that slight upmove that preceded the sell was a genuine buy, mate, you have a lot to learn. Anyways, this time I am really going. No point arguing with amateurs.

Technical Analysis Fallacy

So what are you? FTI's mouthpiece? Better still, are you the majority shareholder of this website? I'm being nothing...just calling for proof and being told to shut up because someone "knows better". If you don't like my posts, I'ld suggest you use ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Mate, I am only telling you what I saw with my own eyes. Liquidity was trapped into driving a down move. But the move down was a clean one and followed the regular rules. This happens all the time in the markets, has always happened, will always ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

What is it with you people. FTI can trade with bananas for all I care. If he makes a profit, well and good. However, if he complains of an unethical market, I want to see it cos where I'm sitting, I don't whilst he is clearly saying something. I ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

As for this nonsense about funding gambling, the free market contemplates that one is free enough to win and lose. If you are still in the market whilst your margin is being approached, you have entered at the wrong level and are a sitting duck. I ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Mate, you can be sure I shan't bother calling by here again. You wont even post a chart showing this supposed unethical behaviour! And then reel off at a tangent. Thats like some guy accusing his neighbour of stealing his fence and then going on ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

You people talk absolute and unmitigated drivel. I am not the one complaining about unethical behaviour. However, as I have said, if there is this behaviour that FTI is complaining of (the chart of which I have yet to see), there are steps we can ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

If anyone feels inclined to take issue with my "egotistical" posts on the state of the market or the alternatives in dealing with it, try taking my argument to pieces, don't attack your perceptions of me. Just get over the fact that someone may have ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Did you bother to read my posts on the issue of ego? Do you people ever bother to read or are you that sensitive?

Technical Analysis Fallacy

The problem is your perception of my meaning, not me. You ought to take some of that "sage" advice of yours and pick your arguments. Every comment of mine bar the one as regards FTI's state of mind, was neutral. However, like lap dogs, you take ...

Technical Analysis Fallacy

Let us consider that FTI who has extensive experience going back 30 years, in this game, issuing that prudential advice about the state of the market. Clearly, in there is the inference that we are in exceptional times...we as retail traders can ...
