8/6/08 Trade 1 — It's a shame I have to sleep. There have been some good setups the last two days during the European session. At the start of my day I could have entered at a better price for a pullback entry signaled prior to my trading ...

8/4/08 Trade 3 — I tried to trade the pullback of the range break, but was stopped out as price continued north to test the top of the range again. The NY session expanded the range established in the Euro session, but no real trend emerged. ...

8/4/08 Trade 2 — In the 2nd trade I was still looking for a break in the range. Price did make an attempt at the bottom, but it quickly pulled back. My stop was moved to break even where I was taken out.

Onedrop, That is the real test, if YOU can make money with your method. We've heard it before, you can take 1 system and 10 traders and you'll get 10 different sets of results. Why? Because there are internal factors that most traders either don't ...
Indicators Or Price Action? What's Best??

The Great Debate — I have been in the Forex arena since around 2002, and since that time I have seen a wide variety of trading systems/styles fall in and out of vogue. When I first began trading, price patters, trend lines, fib ratios, and ...

I think wave theory would apply to both time frames, but if you were looking for candle or bar formations, I believe you would need to stay with the larger timeframe.

Hi Boston Forex, Most scalpers that I know don't use EA's, and the MT4 platform was definitely not designed with scalpers in mind. With scalping, you need to be able to enter and exit trades quickly, and from what I've seen, that's not easy to do ...

Ricardo, This has been my experience exactly. The problem for me is that I exit after a few pips profit, and I will be sitting there watching price move past my limit order but I can't exit because the platform doesn't recognize it as being ...

Rabid, I don't think dimitrius is refering to price feed lag, which Oanda was well known for. In fact, Oanda seems to have fixed that issue in recent days, but since then I have noticed the same kind of new lag that dimitrius has mentioned. Once ...
