Did anyone attend this event? it would be interesting to know what kind of tipping service Zak is offering now.

Hacks, Thanks for providing your results, I agree with you regarding the 80 point stop loss, I can't imagine anyone risking 80 points in order to make 10. My own trading is still going according to plan, I will re-assess at the end of the second month.

I said I would let you know how I got on, I have tried this for a month now and here are the results: I am averaging a win/loss ratio of around 50%, this is probably in line with expectations. I tried two systems for the FTSE, first with a daily profit target of 5 points and secondly with a...

Not a single person on this forum, including Tim Wreford, has come forward to claim any success with this system yet his article is receiving prominence in the "Articles" section? Regarding the rule about Thursday trading, I'm not sure he meant that literally, I think he was just trying to...

Don't spend it all at once, I know cat food can be expensive.

I don't have the back testing facility so I would be very interested in seeing the results of your test. I am in the process of forward testing my own version of this strategy and will report the findings later this month.

Thank you Vasco, Splitlink, Malaguti, for your suggestions. Vasco, you're suggesting that I need to add more criteria and it has to be "proven" i.e. I need an edge. I'd like to ask if this edge has to be a mathematically proven formula or if I provide say 6 or 12 months of profitable results...

Thanks for the link, will have a look at that later.

Hi Rupert, I have a similar trading style to yours, I place my trade after 1 hour rather than 30 minutes. I would be interested in comparing notes, how has your performance been since you posted this? j2o

Looking forward to meeting everyone on Tuesday. j2o

I knew this girl once, her name was Faith. She could move mountains!

I have read about a similar strategy for the Dow but I haven't tried it yet: you determine the high and the low of the first 60 minutes trading range after the open, then you watch the price action, if it breaks the high, you go long and set your stop at the low point of the first 60 minute...

Hi Ian, Sorry if i missed something but I thought you were long ftse at 6427?

Hi Carlos, This is something I have been looking at for over a year but I have not managed to make consistent profits from trading it. For about one hour before and one hour after opening time, usually there are large moves of up to 50 points, have you found a method of catching these on a...
