Just want to chip in my own experience here with TRO - a great guy who obviously lives and breathes for trading, coding and spreading what he finds. Nothing wrong with that, it's obviously his passion. Are his methods of any use? Absolutely. Think of it like this: every system/method you ever...

I never understand why people say you can't trade to wealth (or take a slightly cynical view on it), yet continue to trade/contribute on trading forums! It makes no sense! Maybe not everyone will succeed who try, but some will. Look at it this way: my life, ultimately, means nothing. Nor does...

No I'm serious! Why are we in this trading lark? For fun?! Not me! I'm planning on trading my way to financial freedom so I never need a loan or a day job again. I'm deadly serious.

I guess the plan is to trade to a point financially that you don't even need a loan again. :cheesy: Edit: plus of course you simply lie on the loan application like everyone else! I've never had a loan or credit application where they need to see proof of income outside of a mortgage!

....what are they?

Yeah I know what you mean, but I wish TradeStation licenced their platform out to spreadbetting companies instead. Imagine that! Spreadbetting through TradeStation's own platform! It kills MT4 hands down. But yes for a "one size fits all" platform MT4 is a decent enough thing. TOC

I know it's a typical thing for me to say, but most SB brokers, in my experience and hearing the story of others, have this outlook. For some reason they don't want clients building large accounts... I think they see the $$$ in an account and think "we've only earned a small amount in spreads...

Actually, regarding many FX charts, data before May 2010 on many timeframes is basically full of double bars and all kinds of weird stuff. It seems generally that from May/June onwards it's ok pretty much (again, for many symbols). Guess it's gonna be a huge job to sort!!! :eek:

Fair enough thanks for the answer!

Oooooooooooooo - the plot thickens................... :|

LOL nah not a bad day just trying to spare someone from suffering from the constant platform freeze of Finspeads when you seem to be doing well LOL!! :lol:

Hello! Thanks for the reply. That does sound great, you sound genuine enough. And I have read your other posts on this thread and seen that unless someone is trying to play price lag system beating tactics then you promise no dealing desk... also very good. Can I then ask: what if a client...

Think he means City Index/Finspreads. They are offering ongoing (it seems but who knows?) 1pt on Dow. But beware: I don't know about City, but Finspreads will eventually screw you out of winnings if you are winning time after time. You can't build an account with them. City you may be able to, I...

Until there is a promise from Craig/CMC re: my post he seems to have not responded to (promising no requotes ever) then I'M OUT!! Edit: don't mean to be harsh, but let's face it, CMC now have a mountain to climb after YEARS of Peter Cruddus (founder of CMC) stealing from us mug retail punters...

SLM - another bad weekly data bar: EURUSD weekly, 9th May 2010 Thanks TOC
