    Best Thread Correlation Trading - Basic Ideas and Strategies

    Hi NVP, I just saw your last post on Forexmospherian's thread. I have seen your correlation chart before but didn't know you had a thread. I'd like to read it from the start. Have you found following the correlation trend being a good way to give you bias for trading fx? I'll be jumping back...

    Intraday Live short term trading calls from an Expert Retail Forex Trader

    Hi F, I haven't had much chance to trade in the new year. Work + studying for an exam in March. I thought I could do 2.5 hours of trading in the morning then work, gym, and study... Let's say I was a bit overzealous. Nonetheless, I'll be back after my exam in March. Hopefully, you would not...

    Thanks F. I do feel that I need to switch to a faster chart to read it better at the coalface. Do you like 3 second line on close chart?

    Thanks F. Is there a rule of thumb for how many minutes to wait after entry before scratching? I know that you usually hold for 3-5 minutes. My spread on the tradestation simulator is ridiculous. for live trading i will be using another broker with better spreads.

    F, In the trade I posted, price went about 3 pip advance after 8 mins and stalled... question is do you exit here (2nd rectangle in the attached chart) or do you still try to hold on for the 7-10 pips? Thanks J

    F, I got a question in the attached chart. I held on to the EU short from 9EST window. But was considering closing out early. Would you have held through the 2nd rectangle marked in the chart? Your thoughts on how to exit this trade appreciated. J
