This is the only thing I see wrong with plan B. It seems as though you are forcing yourself to use a lower time frame because of your lack of position sizing that your current account offers. If you think trading a HTF (higher time frame) will give ...

So I doubled a DEMO, now I have half of my LIVE deposit.

I doubt there will be an open discussion on a private method that people pay for. I guess you never know though.

Mouteki/Vegas 4 Hour/Price Action

Not to hijack this thread, but does anyone know where you can find data that goes back further that Alpari? Im looking for pre-2004. It doesn't have to be 1M, but 5M, 15M, or even 30M would suffice.

Where can I find 1min historical charts?

Actually this looks like the optimal number. :

If I was farther south, Id take you up on that.

Broker Complaints …Get over it!

Ive traded news a few times just playing around really. With my CMS account, lol good luck. FXSol, on the other hand, fills very quickly from my experience, which, like I said, is limited.

Forex Brokers for News Trading

The fact is, in my opinion, if there was a 100% honest broker with very very small spreads, no slippage, and no stop hunts, it would probably backrupt itself. During news such as NFP there are SO many people on the right side of the market, making ...

What is slippage?

Couldn't have said it better. When you trade if you have to think before you place your trade, you've lost already. Good stuff Phil.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda..... a losing game.

I cant comment, but do you know if they support MT4? I see MT3 on their site.

Comment please: One World Capital

Great story Fozzy. I bet pretty much everyone has the same, or simliar, story to tell. The difference between the winners and the losers is who quits. Almost all the professional traders who make very good money trading started out the same way, ...

What I've learnt in a year of trading.....

Both the meter maids and the power comany are going to have a hay day with you Phil.

Ah, you were trying a custom, never occured to me.

"Drag & drop" problem

LMAO the guy spliced into the light pole for power. That monitor is actually on. I guess Phil was just checking to make sure it all worked before he snagged it.

Good word!

Review of trading book

Backtest that system throughly, because, believe it or not, there are very profitable strategies that have serious drawdown. It sounds to me, however, that you are not trading any pure mechanical system, so drawdown, in that case, is also a function ...

That could be a problem. You see, if you have a 200 MA on a daily chart it is using the last 200 DAYS to calculate the current MA value. If you have a 200 MA on an hourly chart, it is using the last 200 HOURS to calculate the current MA value. These ...

Moving Average Question

It appears by the statement you posted that you doubled the demo account in around 10 trades. With this information you should have never gone live in the first place. Any system where you are going to double your account in a few trades, you should ...

Great ideas guys. I am ashamed to say I have never thought about this. LOL.

Ur Funds Vs Ur Brokers.

Great Link. Thanks.

Setting up a forex business/hedge fund

The number of bars back a moving average takes into account is the period setting on the MA. If you're using a 200 MA, its using the last 200 bars to calculate the current value. The only way the MA value can change is on the current bar. Make sure ...
