so what are the rules that i should adhere to please. surely i have the right to say that i know how to trade gaps without being 'punished' as if im a child. so id prefer to be told the rules that are not written anywhere.

with respect, that same situation for golds gap this morning happens in other markets and im ok with dealing with them. coz this is a forum im not expecting full disclosure of anything. im not here to argue, that would be pointless. but that doesnt ...

"AUSSI" my thread and anything I want to put here

i dont trade gaps on their own, thats silly. it has to fit in with what else is happening. @digger1 - your charts have the same kinds of gaps. and sure the open gap is always interesting and useful. yeah cfds are far less noteworthy but the ...

its all good aussi. heres a eg of one highlighted image again, dont understand why no one talks about them. theyre pivotal for any real price movement. i guess demos dont show it very good but a live chart is crystal clear. maybe newer traders ...

i dont trade gold but an inside or outside gap is still a gap you can trade image i dont see people talking about inside gaps which is strange coz the charts are full of em. make good markers for good price spots to grab a ride.

"AUSSI" my thread and anything I want to put here

i think you'd care a little if you wake up tomorrow and your account is empty. not criticizing just saying.

i wouldnt worry about it. digger has his own trader talk commentary. if it helps you learn and understand then great.

cant speak for others just me ... once i grew out of style and started looking at a market as a whole thing, then i started seeing a result closer to investing my money for a time then taking it out and cashin in my chips. as digs said traders are a ...
