Yeah you got it spot on. It was a good looking bar from a . . . structural point of view (Apart from the nose not protruding) The location was just not good. And the bar before hand. You want to see that exact looking bar at swing lows, not swing ...

Is Trading Against An FX Dealer A Crap Shoot?

I might be wrong on this (I had to go to metatrader to draw them myself lol) But I think your Fibs on your first chart might be drawn upside down . As for spreadsheets. I am sure there are plenty on FF if you did a search but my experience with them ...

Great post, agree with everything in it. Also Trading is more about experience than education, and experience cannot be paid for. It must be earned by the individual. Jig

I need a mentor...read this and youll know why

O M F G !!!!!!!! Wha . . . Whe. . . I actually nearly fell off my chair when I read who that post is from. I have read every single post of his (In his post history) and literally every one of them is worth a read. I consider Darkstar to be a scaled ...

Good post. Another thing that springs to mind is the fact that if you have any responsibility . . . As in . . . A family to look after etc. I cannot imagine the pressure it would put on a trader to have his family's prosperity linked in to trading. ...

(can) small accounts make a living ?!

Booooo ! Ghous posted before me !

james16 Chart Thread

I agree with Ghous on this one. I would be looking to short it when it hits up higher. Not to say this will not go for pips and go long, if you believe it is a good trade then take it. I remember someone posted a chart of a GBPUSD 4HR BUOB or ...

H.Rearden I am looking forward to your posts in this thread, and the discussion that will arise from it . I (at the present moment) agree with Rabids view on the account size issue. However, I do agree that "everything is relative" in life, and I ...

Take my word for it - A Trading Journal

Agreed thanks Chris 1) Chris will be coming to how to play them, have patience 2) Chris will probably talk about this also, but if you have dreams of giving up a job for forex, those dreams better be 10years into the future (If you are lucky ...

They are fine some of them seem a little "minor" in terms of their importance relative to the better ones (Just in my opinion) I am sure clockwork will explain this concept of "minor levels" relative to "major levels" better than me so I will not go ...

Silent Service Method
