Petrol pump prices Vs Crude Oil Price

If a person wants external help they aren't prepared to pay for, they shouldn't expect the other party to also decompile code. If you're really worried about someone stealing your ideas then you should be prepared to pony up for a lawyer to draft an ...

ROFL. Just sounds like someone that couldn't get the hang of 24 hr markets. I suppose I can see the allure of having a fixed open, but it's kind of sad when such notable people are quoted as blaming their failure on a broker.

The truth about retail Forex brokers !!

700 billion, but it's borrowed money. Most of it comes in the form of treasury bills that are purchased by ppl wanting short term investments. It's being done in stages tho. What's more interesting is the federal reserve. It's lending money out w/o ...

TARP money printed?

The rules are well-defined. It's called "Pattern Day Trading" and it's if you open and close more than 4 trades in a 5 business day period (per week, basically). However that doesn't count if less than 6% of your trades are day trades, ie: they're a ...

Nod. Might be best to phrase it in terms of ATR. Have you ever considered doing the calculations yourself? It's not hard, and is a priceless skill to learn.

Trend statistics

Clarify, not defend. Had some time to kill, mostly... what with the EURUSD moving so slowly in it's rally from the 1.2600 technical level and all that. LOL no. It's a light-hearted chuckle at the notion that technical traders are not often ...

Fundamental VS technical

Symantics, sure price reflects human behavior. But humans buy at the support level because it's held as support. Well actually humans put buy orders in at support, and computers w/ pre-set buy limit orders do the actual buying, but you get the idea. ...

Fundamental VS technical

Nah, it's believable...

Great EA. Anyone interested in forward testing?

I guess it depends on how you draw the line. I see fundamentals as stuff like GDP and jobs reports and trade balances, etc. Each of those effects cash flow to some degree, and in that they have an effect, but other than immediate news trading... the ...

Fundamental VS technical

Fundie analysis is a crock. When it comes to forex the only aspect of it that matters is cash flow. Is money flowing into the dollar or away from the dollar? Well the answer is really simple, with markets down all over the place ppl buy quality. ...

ROFL. That book is incomprehensible for non-math people. And frankly, I don't know if quant skills really amount to trading skills. I took the plunge into quant stuff earlier this year, learned an awful lot, but never once did it show me how to ...

FX Hedge Funds trend follow

This thread is so far past it's prime... lol. I was hoping to let it die. Maybe I still should. No self control sometimes... laff. You said "going public." Going public means IPO. Being listed is just that, there's specific terminology that means ...

Where is the safe harbour due to world financial and economic crises?

308 trades over 4 days. That's 77 trades per day average. IBFX's lowest spread is 2. That's 154 pips per day in spread, 616 pips total spread at the very least. I think you're going to have a very hard time surviving real trades w/ those kind of ...

Will my scalping EA survive live?
