when markets are volatile, more often than not, we get much less than what is offered.

i see. this Alpari UK chart looks better than that Oanda chart. the 'look' of the swing low doesnt look pretty to me, i'd prefer a steeper one. if it doesnt work, the market has another thing in mind. if it does work, u know the potential areas ...

fair sized bar. it has moved lower now. if it closes at a better price & as a BUOB, i'd like a good momentum break & watch 1.6550, 1.6580 areas, 1.6600, 1.6620-30area. good point Sir! ideally, 1.65 area would hold as support. nice. please see ...

raczekfx chart thread

i see, that explains it. if u have enough time, try to monitor trades more. maybe u can, back/forward test a trade in 2 ways: 1. set & forget 2. active/semi-active trade management or u can use alerts. for example, set alerts at//near/prior 137.00 & ...

no need for the EMA if that's what u are comfortable doing. im curious... were u watching the chart when price was near/at/reversed from 137.00? or was this a 'set & forget' trade for you? thanks!

hey, how can u see our stops?

james16 Chart Thread

no, that's not necessary. it's trader-specific, actually. lol, u are not only playing devil's advocate here, u actually traded it (demo or live, doesnt matter). i never said anything about 137 being a BRN. u can check my prior posts. of course, it ...

well, all i can say is (again) dont be rigid & dont impose your will/decision on the market. adapt, flow with the market. the market will do whatever it wants, regardless of what u want or expect. i often say big bars dont guarantee a winning trade, ...

Oanda is great. u just have to find a broker u are comfortable to trade with. im not sure what your Q really is, but the charts are the same, they only look different because the candle/bar formations are different (due to broker time & data feed... ...

u should trade & adapt with the market, rather than trade with a rigid mindset. if your entry was +/-10pips below 137.00, u should've monitored how price reacted on the approach to 137.00. on IBFX, the 'BUOB' high was 136.94-ish, then dropped from ...

james16 Chart Thread

are u referring to the BUOB? where was your entry? on IBFX, it (BUOB) doesnt look that good (barely a buob). well, i think u disregarded 137.00 RN. if u look back 10-12bars to the left of the BUOB, price did stall (got rejected) at that area. u ...

no worries Mike, we're all just sharing our views. Obama, or any president, is not supreme.. not all that he says is the unequivocal, incontrovertible 'truth'. if Obama says 'Osama is dead', doesnt mean Osama is dead. talk is cheap right. think ...

[/LIST] i thought the thread was about an upcoming book. nonetheless, i think the thread starter is capable of writing a good one. im curious.. can u say the reason for #2? & why the futures market, given that there are other markets out there? ...

Reminiscences of A Forex Speculator

cool. someone mentioned that here in the past. probably got to try it myself. is it more practical/economical to buy these stuff than a juicer & juice it yourself? probably good to have both, no? i imagine u are so healthy & alert/active with all ...

What's your way to keep fit, strong and healthy?

im not sure what your question is... are u looking to short these? imho, it would be better to look for longs here. the 2 lines dont mean much, unless it's a part of a bigger perspective (or 'story'). if u are implying we have divergence, yes we ...

hello littspaniard, welcome. the ema365, fib61.8 are not shown in your chart. maybe u can repost another chart? anyway, i'd like to see price to hold around 135.50 & revisit the 136 area (& above), very soon. otherwise, we risk moving down to 134.00 ...
