Thanks...one of the best things I ever did for my trading, both currency and options, was to get the capture program (SnagIt) to take screen shots and videos of what is on my screen. I would capture when I got into a trade on the differrent time ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

A quick little trade I just took using one of the methods (previously mentioned) that I believe gives me an edge, which is what the OP wanted to talk about initially.... BTW: does anyone know how to attach a .png file without it being converted to a ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

I really just don't understand why do many people can't wrap thier mind around this....It is like they would rather not make money than open thier minds to different ways to trade! To me, it's all about the money....I guess to some, it is all about ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

I posted a screen shot of a method I use that utilizes indicators....but I guess you would rather just continue bickering with people. I think this thread is just a big waste of time.....

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

This is one of the "stupid indicator mumbo jumbo" methods I use that I believe gives me an edge, because I define an edge as anything that I can use to make a decision about a trade that will ultimately lead to profitability of that trade. Do I ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Perfectly said!! I don't know about him, but I've been trading a long time and those "difficulties of real life" are still alive and well!! Wouldn't it be great, though....??

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

A more insightful post will be hard to find here!! People get inundated with the thoughts of being able to trade 3 minutes per day and quit thier job, or a set-it-and-forget-it EA that makes you rich while you are at the beach. They forget that to ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Well, no wonder you can't get anything to work...it looks like you just put indicators on your chart until it won't fit any more. You need to at least have the indicators using the same period....and would probably be good if you knew what each ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

You're funny!! In a very inexperienced trader sort of way (with your "Mumbo Jumbo"-word-of-the-day and all), but funny none the less. I think it just boils down to what people are comfortable using and the profits they are satisfied in making. ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Another perfect example of "If I can't do it, NOBODY can!!"-syndrome. Just come to grips that you are happy trading your way and making (hopefully) the amount of money you do. I am happy trading my way and making the money I do. And a thousand other ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Threads like this are fun, but unfortunately, of little value. You have a person that states matter-of-factly: " XXXX trading style will not ever worK!!".... even though there are successful traders using that very method. Then comes the sematics ...

Where is the EDGE in trading? The most important thing in trading!

Well, no wonder you come across as arrogant!!...when it is really just you being proud of designing a system that will never, ever fail. You should be proud!! As this sytem will certainly put you on the Forbes list of the richest people in the US in ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

I was going to let this thread alone, but I just can't.... The ability to anticipate price patterns before they form, however you would go about that, is precisely what is important!! What exactly you are exploiting is of little consequence if you ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

ForexTester.com may be worth a look, though I don't know how far back they go. You can download a demo to see if it is something you can use.

Everyone needs a Luck Dragon.... — Now during the thread, these explainations didn't meet your standard of "understanding" a system or method, but now: Man, you're harder to read than a Point and Figure Chart!! Anyway, hope your trading ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

Guy, you really need to loosen up and get over yourself!! You can't come on a discussion forum and attempt to make everyone out to be less intelligent than you and not get SOME amount of sarcasm! I think you are missing the point of trading, and I ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

Your vast intellegence has made me see the light!! I am scrapping my method and starting over from scratch and by all I hold sacred, I vow to understand everything about everything concerning currency trading before I trade another pip!! I am ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

In my opinion, I think that is what hobbles many of the traders, at least on this forum....the need to make things fall into neat, mathematically orderly packages. Rather than learning to be able to predict the direction of the price (I mentioned ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

The way I see to make money trading is to do the best you can at predicting what price is going to do. For me, I have found that predicting shorter term price moves is a lot easier than longer term (days or weeks). When I first got into trading ...

Price action is dumb, and you're lazy for thinking otherwise

I trade short term charts using technical analysis. I use Bollinger Bands, EMAs, RSI and Stochastics. I know what each does. I know that a very high percentage of the time, price does the same thing in relation to my indicators, thus giving me ...
