Hi, pathumracled - About automation, there might be systems out there that work (but they would be more suited for large accounts that are happy with small yearly percentage as profit), but in principle, I don't think the market can be fit in an ...

Well don't stop on my account, I was only trying to understand what is going on. If you expect feedback on those charts, in my opinion it would only matter if Graeme replied himself, whatever me or anyone else would say this method was brought to us ...

Eh...what are you doing ? It seems to me like you are writing your trade journal in this thread

If you remember Graeme was saying that he stacks more aggressively in the beginning of a move, and then just few or not at all, basically you have to see when the current momentum gets overextended and a retracement probable and stack less or stop ...

This one looks very good actually, congratulations. I get it, you were keeping the good stuff for yourself ;-) Cheers

Just to clarify, when I mentioned "stacking" I meant actually having more positions alive and growing together. What you were showing were some tries to enter the trend that died at BE or so... tries are fine, but not exponential growth. You will ...

Indeed Vee, I removed my post thinking "bah...what's the point ?". After all, my opinions are mine, and yours are yours, and nothing the other one says is likely to change anything. Either way, the point I was trying to make is: take your case for ...

Hi Vee, Can you clarify how participating here would help you achieve those three goals ? Regards, Cam

Hi Vee, I actually don't trade FX with IB, but other instruments, like Futures. I sometimes use Currency Futures to hedge against a spot position (btw: this is how you can take longs and shorts on EURUSD in the same account, you can take long EURUSD ...

I don't think any direct access broker can guarantee your stop loss, it is because the stop loss order is being turned into a market order when price reaches that level and if there's nobody to take the other side of your trade then price will gap ...

Hi Vee, Because what you were doing on the 4h charts was not working, you appear to be in a state of confusion, and the way to overcome this is to write down some rules for your entries, basically what you would like to see before entering (could be ...

Hi TS, On E/U I have only a short since 1.4490, just a probe for now, might add more next week depending on the market conditions. Kindest Regards, Cam

Hi Vee, Not sure how the replies to this question are useful, but hey, since you want opinions: The lagging comes from comparing the various instruments available at our disposal: Price itself is just a number, so I would consider it the fastest ...

Hi Vee, Just wanted to add a small comment re that statement, in my opinion it is not healthy to think "I missed a good move", reason being that most moves look good in hindsight, but when you are actually in the thick of it, it is a completely ...

Hi Vee, A small suggestion: can you also add a chart or more with your entries marked ? Perhaps someone in the thread can help you with an idea or two. Sometimes, an outsider can spot better than the one that's in the middle of the trade. Kindest ...

Thanks you RED, I know it's a strong trend down, but my personal opinion is that USDCHF will retrace up to at least 0.8300... overextended trends are not sustainable, price has to come back higher and get in some more sellers. Also, you don't really ...

Hey mrv, I waited for a bit before replying because I wanted to see other traders reactions, see how not many have acknowledged your post ? "What ?! somebody actually made this work for them ? Impossible !" Many congratulations, and surely as you ...

Building an equity millipede

Trying twice in the same place should be a rare exception, not the rule. I mean, is post number 4 not clear ? Does it specify that you should try twice ? Graeme said once that people don't action the obvious... rightfully so. That's one of the ...

Building an equity millipede

Hi Vee, For this way of trading (trend following), the entry criteria, or entry timeframe you are using do not matter. I actually don't understand why most from this thread are stuck with entries on the 5m chart, Graeme never promoted that as a ...

Good ... but are you making money ? I am asking because from my own experiments I found that tossing a coin for 100 times is still going to result in 1 coin only (well...a more experienced coin since it went up and down 100 times, but still just one ...
