You love to hear yourself talk don't you. Why not hijack another thread 1. Wrong. People with full time jobs can start trading on the side and go pro eventually. 2. Uh what??? A trading method does not have an edge? I would like you to explain mathematically what an edge is? Could you...

Yeah, I saw the frequency of occurence which does say something you're right. Personally I'd like a table that had all the setups ranked from High-Low probability based on a lot of experience and large sample size. There might be a couple of these tables based on the market conditions at...

Don't know if Bob reads the thread or BLS is passing information but just want to say Thank You Bob! Your weekly charts are such a valuable supplement to the book. Repetition hammers this stuff home for me. I've seen Bob in his weekly charts talk about really paying attention to the IRBs...

I use Oanda and their spreads aren't terrible. Usually 1.1 pips during regular hours and non-volatile events. Bob suggests anything below 1

Nice find! How did you get the data from Gain? Do you have to have a real account with them? Is Ninjatrader free?

Caught a little piece of the London Open trend. My chart is in pipettes but looked like a clear DD/SB. Retracement could have been a little deeper. Price just breached through 1.2980 level. Actually another DD opportunity right after if I had missed the first one.

Has anyone compared MB trading, which has 70Tick available, to prorealtime? I am using MB trading demo now. I'm not sure how long their demo is good for (indefinitely hopefully). I bring it up next to Oanda's 30s charts and it seems pretty close. Just wonder if anyone has done a...

Is anyone interested in continuing this thread here or elsewhere? I certainly got a lot out of Mike's and others analysis. -Matt

I personally don't trade the asian session at all it's typically so dead (for the EUR/USD) I tend to focus on London Open and New York Open. What about you guys?

I'm finding the oanda 30s timeframe mimics the 70 tick pretty well. Would you all agree? Not sure how much this 1.2 spread is eating into profits yet though. Don't have enough data.

Only one i caught today. liked the way prices got squeezed above the 20 EMA on the end.

Mike, I appreciate the answer. I wasn't looking for specific $ numbers or how much your making/losing. Guess I wanted encouragement that you've been successful with Bob's method. I'm new to scalping but not trading. I've been successful with a method from a babypips thread which utilizes...

Mike, I'm really enjoying reading through your thread and all the trade examples you've shared. I'd be curious to know if you're willing to share how long you've been scalping with this method? Are you successful, making a living doing it? I completely understand that one can earn a...

Very cool to see that lined up with the 70tick chart. Thanks for that. Have you subscribed to prorealtime?

Hey guys, Finally found a thread discussing Bob's book. Yay! I've been demoing the methods only so far but this is what I came up with this morning. I'm using 30s charts on oanda so not sure how comparable these are to 70 tick but this looks to be a BB -Billy
