SRDC Episode II

I got in at the blue horizontal line area good for +75 pips. Would have gone for a short had price moved below horizontal red line with momentum. (Shown is a the MT4 LRC tool in Solid-Blue, plus the FiboChannel tool in Black-DOT using Gann (25) ...

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

grin. It is threads like this (well deserved i must add) that keep the Factory at the top of the google list for posts-per-day. . . . and i have the need-to-post these silly ones cuz i'm nearly at my 1000th post and i think Merlin has a padded FF ...

Thank you Forex Factory!

i took the break out of the LRC (Linear Regression Channel) upper channel line in solid blue at 1.3230 ish and rode it up for some nice pips. My simple TA kept me out of a sell trade as price had not gone below the channel support area in my LRC ...

Euro today (Thu 11/30) another breakout?

In a post above there was mention of channel trading being a bit crazy right now, but it does not have to be. Look at the below image of a screen shot i just took on the GBP, i just grabbed 75 pips in profit from simple TA on today's trade: image ...

Greetings Dave, i believe somewhere in this thread OR mentioned he draws his LRC based on a major H/L similar to what one would do with a trend line. No doubt Orange will chime in here when he is up and about. I look at the LRC as a traditional ...

I like the rythym of the 60m charts, might be crazy, but they feel right to me. One thing that i feel strongly on is that when researching time frames the 4 hr seemed to have pros and cons...but for me the fact that there were so many different 4hr ...

Shorter or Longer Time Frames 4 Success?

Go SEAHAWKS. grin. Demos? Cool for learning your broker's tradestation, tweaking/testing EAs, and learrning a new strategy. . . then back to the micro account for some of that asymetrical MM that is so nice about trading 87 micro lots instead of 8 ...

A challenge to those who say Demos suck.

Greetings Matt. LOL. We are all in this together my friend. I would never hold at fault anyone (such as yourself) attempting to help further a good cause such as what we have here! Trust me when i restate that i'm all for the weekly data being in ...

Doblece, that was a Perfect textbook definition. . . and now the "other" one: A trading model that incorporates a software based "robot" to pull the trigger on entries that meet the criteria set by a human operator so that same human does not have ...

Beyond Cadlesticks is a great read. I have it on my trade station desk for ref. : ) Thom

GBP or EUR long this month?: How was your profits?

an old addage is "Inch by Inch Its a Sinch" . . . related to FX i suppose that would be "Pip by Pip Its a Sinch" Its that consistency thingy again. Take the conservative, well thought out MM and trade model route and the pips should come in (and the ...

Is the sky the limit or is it too good to be true?
