You can find a lot of systems on myfxbook (and the like) that use martingale type risk management without stops (just keeps adding or holding) and show "realized profits" of many multiples of their initial deposit. HOWEVER, their account equity is ...

No SL No Leverage Strategy - working so far

Ugg.. sounds like they're just getting around it by doing some accounting in the backoffice.. NFA hasn't approved "hedging" in general, just the method that PFG is shifting positions to appear net flat to the client. I still feel that hedging ...

MT4 Hedging Broker

You came into this thread admitting that we already talked about the subject and came to a conclusion, just to bring it up again with no new or significant information. It's great to bring out actual issues and problems at a broker... For example, ...

Pepperstone Forex

Exactly, it doesn't matter. Last time this came up, I posted this about it:

Pepperstone Forex

Do you mean equity index? Or currency baskets, such as the US Dollar index /DX in futures or FXCM's USDollar index? Oanda just came out with basket trading currencies, but it's in beta.. and not available in all regions (regulation issues) ... ...

Rooicol's MT4 tick chart is awesome and I use it myself. I second his suggestion. Also, while you won't be using it for order entry, you can always keep fxTrade up and running for charting on the side.

OANDA Discussion

The spirit of what you are asking is good... but sadly such a thread would just encourage people to smear brokers and spread fear needlessly. Take a site like ForexPeaceArmy for example, most popular brokers will have tonnes of negative claims ...

Honest brokers

Their MT4 is just a bridge.. and it could have been done a lot better. If you're scalping, just use their native fxTrade platform.. execution quality matters so much for scalping and fxTrade is great for that. You can always keep MT4 open for ...

Anyone able to scalp 1min/5min with oanda MT4

Nice Though, I'm so used to seeing bids being on the left, and offers being on the right, that seeing a top and bottom button placement kinda messes with me.

Dukascopy

Shouldn't the indicator be written to use the preset variable for current symbol? Dropping it on a new symbol shouldn't require a rewrite of code. Or is this comparing the current symbol to EUR/USD (like a correlation indicator or something)?

MT4: how to change "EURUSD" to "#EURUSD"?

Problem on your end or your ISP... Everything Dukas works fine for me.

It's more of an issue with MT4 than it is related to brokers. Period converter would be it. Or use a 3rd party charting package that does M2, and just use MT4 for execution.

MT4 platform with M2 Time Frame

What's it running on? I'm not having that trouble on WinXP SP3, 32bit, MT4 build 409. At least, not that I've noticed.. I'll double check again later tonight.

Best Method of Controlling Multiple MT4 Accounts at Once?

WOW.... I see so much confusion about synthetic pairs and crosses... *sadface* Here: url Anyone thinking a cross doesn't have anything to do with trading against the USD is forgetting that a synthetic that creates a cross pair has eliminated the ...

No SL No Leverage Strategy - working so far

I've never traded them myself since the basic math of it puts the odds in favour of the house (broker) for each bet, meaning you have to be right far more often than your wrong in order to make a consistent profit (like 70%+ of the time.) I also ...

Forex Binary Options

This. At the very least, do some sort of low levered carry trade... or emulate the DB Currency Harvest Index at 2:1 leverage... just a thought.

No SL No Leverage Strategy - working so far

I see little point in competing as an IB with a rebate business model. It's a huge game of 'who's willing to give up more margin'..

Introducing broker

That's why I like places like Oanda, and Pepperstone.. both offer the same conditions on all their sizes. Oanda's min is a buck... and you can 1:1 leverage that in a trade if you'd like.. lol (as pointless as that is.) Seriously speaking, this is ...

Brokers with low minimum deposit

There's way too many differences between various prop models to explain them all here and give pro's and cons of each... I could write a book about that. :/ The basics are: At a prop firm you trade the firm's capital and keep a portion of the ...
