New Vid Up, on pivots. Real ones, not rubbish mathematical ones. ;) Cheers B

Thanks for watching MajorMagnum, and glad youre enjoying the vids :) hopefully that image comes out ok. After marking it up, i never really looked at the AU again, since i only actively trade one chart at a time. Most of the signal service trade ideas are reasonable, but after talking with...

Hi everyone, It been a while since ive posted anything here. I am in the process of creating a YouTube channel to show a bunch of trading stuff. Space, trading processes, some theorycrafting, even a series taken from a signal service. Planned are book reviews, complete trade sequences, and a...

What the...? I think youve totally missed the point of this thread, and I dont think you can see there is a difference between planning and execution. A Plan that doesnt include contingency for the market going against you isnt a plan, its a disaster waiting to happen. It is worse than no plan...

Due to the MM i use the fail rate is a bit disingenuous. Most "fails" are me working my way into a position. Timing issues rather than being totally wrong. Additionally, since I do not allow a stop to be taken, my "Risk" lasts for many failures and i consider it just the cost of getting a...

About 5 years ago I did some analysis on candle formation. Its horribly dull stuff but I was curious to see if I could reasonably predict how a candle would form, particularly big timeframe candles. The short version (ie findings) is this: about 80% of all long (ie close > open) candles form...

No offence taken (ever) :lol: If you think Im brash now, im definatley not showing off my trading affirmation :lol: Ive been watching those scandals unfold for the last 15 years, and as the Austrian economists say "Its never different this time." The gold fix has been going on for more than a...

Imbalance of buyers (demand) and sellers (supply). That is all. All market "riggers" must still play by this game to make the market move: even the HFT frontrunners, even Soros getting a phonecall from the SNB. Brokers do not have to "run stops." That is a paranoid fantasy promoted by losing...

I knew you couldnt answer the question :) In light of the general tone of your post history, I'm done. B.

Is an indicator, similar to the way renko charts work if youve ever used one of those (creates an offline chart that updates every tick). I wrote it myself. B. (avoiding being accused of spam or promotion, in case theres a ban for it, like on certain other trading sites)

Its not a matter of where it could go, but of where it can not go. B.

splitlink, please answer the following question in 10 words or less: "what makes a market move?" when you can answer this, you will also know why pivots (and most other 'chart patterns') form. Even market manipulators must adhere to this principle; even ghosting or other forms of faking S/D...

Apart from my own trading? Im not a great reader of other people trading ideas. However I do have hundreds (lit) of markups showing real pivots, and they form an important part of my trading method. They became much more important after investigating point and figure charting, which really...

Im going to say something that the others havent covered yet, and is the most fundamental to trading: Since I dont know what youre doing, no specific advice can be given. First, What I do know, is that your mindset is wrong. If you dont get this sorted out first, every other piece of trading...

that would be an issue to ask the websites, not a general trading forum. B
