Sauron replied Apr 22, 2010If you're a programmer it is relatively easy. Write a software, could be even some macro in Excel, which copies in the folder ..\experts\files of every MetaTrader instance, a file with instructions regarding the trade. Then have an EA in MT which ...

Sauron replied Apr 20, 2010Exactly but it eludes the most people and even some of the established gurus. It is counterintuitive and against the gospel which is preached on this forum. As the most are losers they tend to feel good any time they hear that even if they lose ...

Sauron replied Apr 20, 2010He uses a false and biased example to dismiss what he considers to be wrong. I'd say that the need to be right and to lose less are marks of a good trader. Taking losses is a part of a game, taking a lot of losses is the mark of a loser. The huge ...

Sauron replied Apr 20, 2010Please please please tell me that this sheer stupidity doesn't come from Tharp. It can't be true. Only a guy who never made a trading simulation in his life can say such enormities. How can he mention 90% losing trades without mentioning the risk of ...

Sauron replied Apr 19, 2010Any moving average of a trending market can be replaced by a trend line which acts as support or resistance. This kind of line is a leading indicator, i.e. it shows where the price probably will go, while a moving average only shows where the price ...

Sauron replied Apr 16, 2010That's not true. It doesn't happen often but anytime I look at 4 different brokes I see maximum 2 pips difference in the current price and this difference doesn't persist long. Even though, if you can't make money losing 1-2 pips more from time to ...

Sauron replied Apr 14, 2010Of course they can quote any price they like, it shouldn't even be in the contract!!! But the same broker can't quote different prices for different traders in the same time, i.e. your chart has a spike which hunted your stop and your friend with ...
Technical Analysis Fallacy
-
Sauron replied Apr 14, 2010The whole "guessing-the-non-random" approach is a fallacy. I can distinguish between a chart of my favorite pairs and a random chart if you would specify the timeframe. I can't distinguish between any market chart and a random one, without ...

Sauron replied Apr 14, 2010Exactly, if you're not a scalper 1 pip less shouldn't make any difference. A trader must always consider that this business has its problems, like any other.
Technical Analysis Fallacy

Sauron replied Apr 14, 2010This conspiracy theory has one major flaw. It takes only 2 different people using the same broker to prove that they receive different data feeds for that broker to have big legal problems. A broker can delay, slip, requote a profitable trader. A ...

Sauron replied Apr 13, 2010When you click buy or sell you actually send a message to their server to execute an order. Of course they know you have done it. When you rest your mouse on a button, their application is already programmed to show you that info. There's no special ...
Technical Analysis Fallacy

Sauron replied Apr 13, 2010They can't track your mouse moves, as far as I know Oanda uses a java applet and there's no way they could spy on you. I'm not defending Oanda, maybe they don't like you and can program their server to respond "differently" to your requests. That's ...
