traider replied Dec 21, 2011You've lost me. Anyways, I simply go by the candles and my interpretation of them. Nothing else. A move is always preceded a particular setup (which is very discretionary and too complex with my limited teaching skills.) It took me almost 6 years of ...

traider replied Dec 21, 2011The markets aren't random, well forex anyways. I am no authority on the others. I will enter a move on these particular forms. After that, I will wait for a reversal or another spurt after a period of consolidation or retracement.

traider replied Dec 20, 2011Thanks PK. I've added it to my charts...it makes a nice quick visual tool as I tend to go by the candles alone but at times get somewhat fatigued.

traider replied Dec 20, 2011I am not entirely sure that the European crisis is quite the issue we appear to think it is. Their sovereign debt is more a symptom of the underlying mountain of faulty legal paper (lost title) their banks are holding from the sub-prime days. Both ...

traider replied Dec 20, 2011Hi PK I apologise for perhaps asking the obvious, but how do you read the SSL Fastbar. If you have discussed it elsewhere which you probably have on numerous occasions, simply remind me and I will go off and look, otherwise, a brief explanation will ...

traider replied Dec 20, 2011I trade the 5 min tf but don't scalp. I tend to catch the whole move within a days direction...anything from 30 to 150 pips (and more sometimes). So the assumption that small timeframes equate to scalping is not always true.

traider replied Dec 20, 2011I trade the 5min tf and wouldn't trade anything higher whilst I am building up my capital to a point where I can afford to trade less frequently and move to another level of capital accumulation.. This is a fairly self evident truth to me.

traider replied Dec 19, 2011I think Merkel recognises that this is an unfixable problem. The underlying problem is not government spending although the media moghuls would like you to think so. It's the vast mountain of messed up housing instruments that were issued during the ...

traider replied Dec 19, 2011I tend to think of capital as an objective force subject to immutable laws. For example, 9 out of 10 of us, subject to the vagaries of high net worth, would act in concert, whether it be investing for the best return, employing for the best return, ...

traider replied Dec 19, 2011Both wars were fought to advance the development of the bourgeoisie against the landowning classes (the British and then the Southern planters). They were in effect the first shots in the emergence of capital, mercantilism and early capitalism. The ...
