If you can export a simple small list (one day's history), import it to Access, overwrite private infos if you like, and send me the MDB file without running the query. I will check what causes the error. Maybe some language setting, or a different ...

look at each red line separately. what Pipsy means is, if price knocks the level 2 times and then closes on the other side (does not bounce back the 3rd time), then it could be a trend continuation sign. I agree this is a useful observation. Thanks ...

if your problem is how to persist some information between EA (and system) restarts, try to save your data to a file. Works fine. url

Can I stop an EA by itself

quick update... market is pouring a lot more patterns than I have the chance to document / evaluate / think about ... just posting these false breakouts because I think they are related to Pinocchio bars (mentioned in many places, I just pick this ...

Hello, glad to see someone found it useful. I made some small changes in ProfitPips and LossPips, instead of the Transactions table, it uses the ClosedTrades view now. Dunno if it's gonna fix the problem tho.. There are some changes in this ...

I knew there would be someone who doesn't realize I'm joking in spite the fact I explicitly mentioned it.

yupp, been a busy boy lately. All going well, putting some pips in the sack, also paying some for tuition fees, but that's the way the cookie crumbles isn't it. erhm, are you eating what you like and when you like it? hope so.

Marvelous. These beauties appear to be variations of false breakouts. Thanks for the link, indeed the j16 thread is so long I could be reading it for the next 40 years.

Very well said! Folks, if there was a simple formula to tell where price is going to go, we all would be millionaires. Just watch the calendar, be quick in placing an order after the news is out and there is your new mercedes benz in a couple of ...

Zkf, you may want to find the "No brainer trades" thread here, there's a PDF and also charts attached. I know, there's a lot of info there. I attached a couple of buckets, they are visual U shapes. You need to practice a bit, to see "how" price ...

Been a busy boy leately, but here are a couple of BRV's buckets I spotted recently. EU is almost a year old (hey, we can't scroll the chart forward, but scrolling back is almost as good for learning), and with AU I had the pleasure of playing a ...

I agree 100% with your first sentence, it's funny and also tragic what some people "see" behind price movements. Honestly I didn't quite understand the rest of your post, I'm not stating anything other than the EU chart on the 1st page is an example ...

(binned per thread starter's request) Behind Price-Orderflow

That 4th chart on the 1st page, the EURUSD H4, looks familiar... if you look at it on a lower TF, it's a "bucket trade" described on the nobrainer thread... I remember this particular one, I saved the chart after going short near the top of the ...

(binned per thread starter's request) Behind Price-Orderflow

Someone very cleverly put it on another thread: trading is not a two dimensional game. The opposite of "wrong" is not automatically right. If it's not the right time to buy, it does not mean it's time to sell. Think about a range: the price might go ...

FOREX = Discipline

I don't use stats to anticipate price movements but I admit they can be profitable. For example, statistically it's not a surprise if the pound breaks on mondays before or around the London open. Many people trade box breakouts profitably, it's also ...

Would pick this option: YES, but I do not use statistics and/or probability studies in my trading for other reasons.

Oh, it's your chart after all. Should fit your needs and yours alone. Somehow I had the stupid idea that you weren't aware of those settings. You're right, there are gaps between friday night and monday open. As I remember they were way larger a ...
