Just hit 30 pips up. This must be getting really confusing for you gap traders here, we've had 35 pips down and are now 30 pips up. Decisions, decisions, decisions, oh my, which gap to trade. Note to self, open a brokerage that only opens on ...

I know. Gap trading is so wonderful, we've already had a 35 pip gap down and are now working on a 20 pip gap up. Which one do you trade? I like to trade them all.

We closed that first gap, all of you gap traders well done. That was an easy 35 pips. Ah sh!t, none of your cr@p brokers have a live feed yet, ah well, we are forming another gap here, so you should be able to have a go at this one.......

Or they will come up with some kind of double gap of a gap within a gap "gap trading system", we could well see a dozen threads on the systems section here, that will inevitably invite dozens of other experts adding their indies, and a few muppets ...

Down 30-odd so far, that should get a few muppets going as soon as their feeds come on line. Still not sure what the heck these kids are going to trade, the gap up from last week, or the one down this week. I am sure some of 'm will come up with all ...

OK, show me a single strategy published anywhere in the world with at least a 5 year trackrecord that is freely shared. You are not going to find it. It is worth millions. Go ahead, find us one. Matter of fact if you have one somewhere, I would ...

If you had a strategy that worked, you wouldn't need to share it, you don't need peer review, you don't need to have someone look at it with fresh eyes. If you have a strategy that works, you got 2 choices, you either trade it, or you walk into ...

Fibo's is a great example, if you look how they responded only 10-15 years ago, and how they do now, you can clearly see how especially the HFT's are often reversing right before the tests right now. I have taken to drawing the fibos on with thicker ...

IF you give your strategy, you lose control. If you share it with one person, you dillute your edge slightly, as you cannot prevent further disclosure, your edge will eventually dwindle down to nothing. As an aside, why would any trader give up ...

Lemme see, your trading was so wonderful that you lost 90% of your account with barely a winner, then you gambled all and made 220% back on 1 trade for 10 minutes. Now I would not really want to draw too much attention to that if I were you. Then ...

No need for any reasoning, you gave your own answer why you "hedge": Like I said, stop lying to yourself. Everyone here reading your post can see what you are doing to yourself, you just can't see it.

You can justify what you like here, stop justifying it to yourself, stop lying to yourself and making up for your inability to trade by some silly retail solution. Be a man, be honest and address your shortcomings. No need to hone up here, I could ...
