Take a look at Oanda price candle chart. For EURUSD, there is a huge 20 pips red candle on the last M1 candle before the market close. Just the last min, it plunged 20 pips. But on other platform, there is no such plunge. This abnormal behaviour is ...

First of all, there is no definition of what is day trading in this thread. So I will say my interpretation of day trading before I comment further. My interpretation of day trading is that you do not carry an open order across the next day, which ...

Spot on Spili. Success is how you define it to be. Compared to Warren Buffet, successful I am not, compared to those earning their living toiling in sweatshops, I am. Too many people take in what they heard from other cry-babies about trading FX ...

I see some discussion on Oanda spread here. While I am not too happy at their recent disconnection problem, I think Oanda still have my vote as a preferred broker for FX. If you think Oanda is a joke, you have not met the real joker yet. This joker ...

I share your experience about terrific experience trading with Oanda. I have traded with no less than 4 different brokers and I could not find one better than Oanda in almost all aspects of evaluation point. Its a shame such outages should even ...

Oanda, please account to your client on the recent outage — To the CEO of Oanda, We had a recent supposedly network outage at Oanda that lasted for more than 1 hour. I am sure many clients of Oanda. including myself, would like a clear ...

Agree that backup/redundant NSP is an area which Oanda has to look into. Even as a small retail trader, I have redundant computers, redundant connections with 2 independent Internet Service Providers, and a few redundant independent brokers to fall ...

If you can make 1 pip a day on average over extended period, you will find yourself in the top 5% of successful trader, let alone 10 pips a day. Why I say so? To achieve 10 pips a day for 1 day can be easy for many traders. Try achieving an average ...

Yeah, don't worry about more screen time. Just do your regular hours. Remember to always wait for the market to come to you and not to chase after the market. If within your regular trading hours, the market don't offer good trading opportunity, ...

First, you have to first define what does "best" mean. "Best" to me means a system that offers at most 5% drawdown but at least 10% return per annum. "Worst" to me could means a system that experience more than 80% drawdown but can give returns of ...

Slightly complicated to explain. But I will try. For exchange-regulated instrument, the lowest support price and the highest resistance price formed by tick charts _will_ be the same as the lowest support price and highest resistance price formed by ...

I don't trade on tick charts simply because many forex trading platforms don't support tick chart. For OTC instrument, trade volume is not ascertain and that may explains why tick charts are not normally support on forex trading platform. Please ...

I would keep it to less than 1% to at most 2% risk per trade for short term trade. On the average, it should be around 1%. On per trade basis, whether it is on the low end or high end percentage depends on whether that trade is an outright or a ...

I don't view 1% money management in terms of a myth or otherwise. It is difficult to establish _absolutely_ its truth, just like it is difficult to dispute the 'myth' that condom prevents STDs and pregnancy. For that 100 people that sweared on it ...

My biggest mistake: Not internalizing the difference between understanding and internalizing. All that I know today on trading is what I have already understood 3 years back. There are probably not many things that I have not known 3 years back that ...

Nice to hear from a fellow trader on the above. Look like we are currently at the same stage of our trading journey. I have tried various strategies - long term and short term. Good returns come from longer term trade indeed. However, accompanying ...
