Anything worth doing is worth doing for money. This isn't a charity.

Which is why category #4 (from me, at least) is fundamental.

LOL. As has been pointed out, .7 * .7 = .49, not 4.9. Multiply any two real numbers less than 1 and greater than 0 and you will get a number greater than 0 but less than 1. The resultant product will always be less than the initial two numbers. ...

Nod. I suppose it probably is, at that.

That's because that goose isn't something someone can give. It's a process that requires learning and experience. It's part of the "unconscious competence", as hanover called it. It can only be earned.

Don't forget momentum indicators like MACD. Two points: 1. Sometimes indies abstract the data in a way that makes it easier for people to see. For instance if you wanted to know the difference in price between the last 2 day's highs and lows. You ...

In today's world of trading, absolutely. Econometrics?

If you're trend trading, don't make this any harder than it has to be. If you feel compelled to use MAs, Brian Marber's method works fine. He chooses 3 MAs of varying lengths, and when all 3 turn in the same direction, trades that direction. Add in ...

LOL. I think you can safely ditch the idea of ever "being finalized" in your methods. Even with a catalog of profitable methods, you'll still be searching for more. Years ago I thought I'd magically find a method, then all would be rainbows, ...

In the US, forex is regulated by the CFTC. The NFA is a self-regulatory membership agency that only regulates it's own members. NFA members tend to be brokers and pool operators, not individual traders. The NFA has no direct oversight over ...

Actually, other sites usually get theirs from FF. I believe FF does much of the work itself.

Test your idea first w/ manual forward testing and visual back testing. An awful lot of proposed systems are not profitable over time. Don't know, if I give you a referral and they turn out to be bogus then that reflects badly on me. I don't like ...

In small brokerages, positions are aggregated and the net is taken to the market... at least in general (assuming it's not a pure bucket shop). Ie: Between all of your traders there's a 100 lot long position. Between all of your traders there's a 30 ...

Well I live in Indiana, my team's going to the superbowl. So neyh!

I didn't answer because I've never done it, lol. Didn't want to mislead you. You're talking about a different kind of hedging. The kind of hedging people talk about here is sometimes referred to as "nedging" since it's really just taking a long and ...

If the funds can't be returned to the card then they'll issue a check. Some times that can cause issues. They obviously don't want to be held liable in that situation. They can't just take your money and run off with it, that's illegal. If it goes ...

CC returns can take upwards of a week in some cases. 20 hours is not unusual. If they can't return it for some reason, they'll still owe you a refund. It's not like they can just keep the money because of some technical glitch.

Uhm. You have your non-hedging scenario completely off... It's a bit hard to follow, but here's an example: You buy. Price goes up 25 pips, you sell. Now you're neutral. +25 pips. 1 equal buy and 1 equal sell is the same thing as nothing at all. ...

Uh yeh. Big weekend news makes monday pop.

The difference is spread. Closing a long means selling, means no spread. If you take a short position, someday you must take an offsetting long, and that will entail a spread. In this way, hedging is actually more expensive.
