Hey Sauron, LOL, last summer Darkstar logged on for the first time in 2 years. An actual thread was started and underground murmuring began simply because of that. (LOL check this out haha) People have been awaiting his second coming...

There seems to be this fine line between orderflow trading here and fundamental trading. You say you are not trading intrinsic value, but rather the order flows into the market. Then you mention a fundamentalist issue (greece) as the cause of the ...

Not to be nit picky, and perhaps I am missing the point, but according to the man himself, just about all the info needed to make the trading decision was represented in the chart itself. No need to zoom out perhaps.

Good post, rings a bell. I am in a similar boat and I too use bullet points. Here is a list of things I wanted to study. I made this list about 18months ago: FX Options Futures Supply and Demand Bid and Ask Trends Ranges Liquidity Federal Reserve ...

Spreads lose importance the longer you hold your trade for. If you are holding a month long position, looking to gain hundreds of pips, then a 2 pip spread is negligible. If you are scalping 10pips in 2 min, then 2 pips is extremely expensive. Of ...

While I cannot decide for you what makes sense and what doesn't, order flow trading is anything but witchcraft. If you think about for half a second you realize that you are trading based on real life market mechanics. Orders are what moves markets, ...

LOL, and then it happens. Low liquidity, slow market, 25pip run up to take out the stops behind 1.44 on Euro. Happened sooner than I thought...but still. What next? Nothing. The move is done, and Tokyo open is about to start, different ball game.

Guys, there are two types of trading being talked about here. Trading order flow from a dealers perspective is entirely different than trading it from a retailers perspective, and the two should not be confused. A successful dealer is by no means a ...

Threads evolve Bill, and even Twee allowed the discussion to continue so I think the new topic at hand has been a good discussion. I agree that what is being talked about deserves a different title, but at this point it is not worth opening a ...

Thanks for the replies, and I agree with Pipmutt that we are getting off topic. As much as I would love to talk about my own trading pitfalls, it is of no help here. Like daytrading, I don't really know if there is much else I can add. In ...

I am sorry guys but I just simply cannot accept this, and honestly it is comments like the ones below that make me doubt the profitability of the author. Can a trader reach a point where he can't help but make money? To me the answer is an obvious ...

No, not really. I just want to make money. I have heard that trading must fit your personality so many times I could just about vomit, but at this point it really makes no difference to me. If I can develop a trend based system that is profitable, ...

Hi Coscorp, I appreciate your first comments, and that is something we can agree on. I wish daytrrading would reconsider his decision. It is a shame and he will be missed. As for your questions, here are my opinions: 1) I joined for several reasons. ...

Well of course the above statement is true, but as written Jacko will ONLY be banned if he is found to be a signal service. If he is not, then a full apology would be in order for anyone who accused him of it. Hence the reason that his is not about ...

Dont you get it? This was not about "getting someone banned." This was about determing the validity of a business. What is so hard to understand about this? Is there any proof that Jacko himself is successful? If not, then the only options are to ...

From a few of the prop traders that I have spoken to, I would sooner say that their biggest advantage is education. When starting at a prop firm, you often have the option of taking one of their education classes (usually for a fee). That, combined ...
