    Best Thread Correlation Trading - Basic Ideas and Strategies

    Actually the 'Value 1' is called the 'FXCorrelator' in the Data Window - that is the EUR reading. An example here.. The PerAvr value of 1000 is for the original FXCorrelator which had a longer term view. The recent emphasis is for the Scalping view - it's the same indicator but with a setting...

    I cannot pretend to be an expert being as I've only recently found the FXCorrelator - but in this case I'm sure I can answer your queries. Please see my answers in bold text below.. Does that make sense? :)

    Hey JXBlack. No need to re-install MT4. First thing you should do is delete the lastprofile.ini file in the Profiles folder under Metatrader (don't worry about deleting - MT4 will automatically regenerate it). This will stop MT4 trying to open the last profile which has the FXCorrelator that...

    Best Thread Correlation Trading - Basic Ideas and Strategies

    I think I may have given the impression that I'm a beginner - I'm not really. Actually I've been trading for 7 years. Hell, I've even been a (very quiet) member of T2W since May 2004 :) . I've fallen down all the same holes as everybody else and learned to only trade the majors on my spreadbet...

    I seem to have had one of those beginners luck experiences and plucked 3 from 3 on the CADJPY for 80+ pips. It was only on a single mini but using real money makes a fella take it seriously... I chose the CAD & JPY because of their obvious diverging angles of decline/rise at the times of entry...

    I guess my problems are the kinda stuff that come from not reading the thread.... ;) . Anyway, it seems my problems came from the additional 'gbp' appended to the symbols in the code. All sorted now. Might I suggest a bit of version control? Version numbers and sub-numbers?

    Bugger! It galls me to confess that I cannot get the Scalper version to show up - it just gives a blank pane. The regular FXCORRELATOR works - even TRO's version works but the Scalper won't work on MT4 from ODL, MB Trading, FXCM nor FXDD (I thought I'd try at least four..) Is there anything...

    Ha ha. If only everyone were so responsive :D Thanks for that. Nothing wrong with there being a commercial version but I know from others experience that the move into a paid offering can quickly become a massive pain in the **** as you feel compelled to help every subscriber who can't read...

    All credit to you Neil. It would appear you've created a very nice tool and method here and have been generous enough to give it for free. I have a problem though - where the hell to start. This thread is at 3500 posts.... Yes I know I could read it - there's no substitute for that, but I'm not...

    eSignal Data Feed without Charts

    JTrader is correct that the composite GTIS symbols are jumpy & spikey. This is because of the wide spreads across all the brokerages. Fortunately there is no need to use the composite symbols. You can easily refine your eSignal forex symbols per contributor source. ie rather than GBP ao-fx...

    FXMarketspace

    The newswires have just confirmed the 'formal' completion of the previously announced Reuters/CME joint venture for a centrally-cleared FX market. I hope (I so dearly hope) that this will grow to have the creditability and integrity that the CME has in the futures market. Assuming so, I will...

    >20 pips a day

    If anyone finds themselves in the situation where they can regularly average 20-30pips per day over the medium term, then I' d say they would hardly need to complicate their lives by opting for the first two options. This level of 'success' along with studious deference to the market and...

    Forex tax haven question

    Donaldduke has hit the nail on the head. 'Offshoring' yourself isn't the preserve of large companies and, frankly, it makes sense for anybody that generates more than a few grand a year in tax. Check out http://www.offshoreconsultants.co.uk It's surpisingly straightforward to get a company...

    Archive of economic news release times/dates?

    Hi Jim Actually I've just realised that Briefing.com do a friendly archive... but only on their Gold service which costs $9.95 per month - buttons for a man of substantial means like yourself I'm sure. In my view, though, it's worth it as a high quality, all in one news content source. That...

    Archive of economic news release times/dates?

    JIMVT I'm assuming you want this to check how the market moved after significant (or otherwise) reports. I don't know of any site that archives in such a way that is user friendly, but if you go to http://biz.yahoo.com/c/e.html from there you can opt look to look at last weeks and from...
