Why don't we (t2w users) try to create a strategy or a system that really works? After all, many many heads think better than one. One thing that really annoys me is when traders are on forum searching for the holy grail, hoping that someone will tell them how to be successful in Trading, however when they find a good strategy or system that really works they keep it to themselves, that's being selfish, with more than 3 trillions dollars out there, there's plenty to all of us.

I'm not that new, I've been in forums for ages and started trading forex 2 years ago, I'm profitable but not at a point of being able to live of forex which is my goal (and not cause I'm lazy to study or take a degree, because i'm going to take one in economics). There are months i win alot and months that i don't, one time i doubled my account in a week using good money management however last month for example i made nothing, won and lost. I'm 17 years old and i actually started trading when i was 14 but i reckon that age isn't an obstacle to anything.

There are only a few numbers of traders that share their ideas, strategies, system and other things. I thank to all of those traders. There many out there, recently i saw captain currency thread and it looked like a good strategy.

So why don't we create a good strategy or a good system? It doesn't have to be the holy grail , it just has to be profitable in a short and long term. All of us together might achieve that goal, even your good strategy with a few tweaks could be even better.

English isn't my mother tongue so sorry if made any mistake.

Thanks

Too many opposing opinions and strategies.

Price action or Indicators?

Tight stops or Big stops?

5 min or daily?

Sorry to seem a defeatist but there are many ways to make money in the market and no two peope will trade the same.

Doesnt Following and learning Inside bars,pins or Trader dantes thread count.It doesnt matter how much good advice people recieve they will not become good traders unless they get their head sorted. I see you are a newish poster and are looking so hard like we all do. Look no further my friend everything you need is already available on this site.The reason only a few give their secrects away is that there are only a few that have been through a very hard learning curve.If you want to save years of painfull research and loses, this is how you need to go about it
1) Totally,totally,totally understand how Risk/Reward ratio works
2) Totally,totally,totally understand that this game is as simple as you make it.A simple pattern with good R/R can produce results time and time again.
3) Accept you may have 8 losers on the trot
4) What goes up can keep going up
5) Throw away the pennies and wait for the £ss

The hard part is that you actually have to learn and understand these things to have any chance to succeed,even then its hard graft,trust me I know

It can be based on price action or indicators, both, one strategy for scalping and one for daily.
True, two persons won't trade the same but for example if you have a technical or mechanical strategy in this case everybody should trade the same way, opinions does matter but its a matter of getting what you say in an image, if somebody is saying your strategy doesn't work, trade it and then bring us the statement and some screenshots of your entries and exits. There can be many ways to trade the market but i bet that there are only a few ones that will actually be profitable in a short and long term.

Even if a "pro" trader gave you the best strategy in the world you might fail to get it to work but in that case if that strategy really works the only problem it has is you, so change the way you trade and try to adapt to it if you don't have any other thing working.

Monkey Sees, Monkey Does, why can't we?
Of course it might be safer to know how it works. But who cares? It works and with time you will find out, you don't need to risk your money before understanding it or before testing for a long long time.

Giving up isn't an option, if someone can do it so can we.
