yeah... it seems to take on average 10 years. just like any other business or skillset. You go to college and study a subject for 4 years. get some experience and hand on experience for a few years. setup on your own and after two or three years you are cutting a profit. No reason why...

i will be looking for longs on the dax come monday. up to a p4 at that quartile. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?l=1452937844797.png

welcome to check out my vids too. https://www.youtube.com/user/TradingSkills4u

i made a vid on it here the way to think about trading records is that it needs to not be a chore to complete. and has to be meaningful. Headings like, What lessons did i learn from this trade. What could i have done better, really helps me. I have a couple of trader mates who use edgewonk...

this is what i mean regarding the single click trading. one click trading - YouTube

lol,, i pasted some text from their website. i should have put it in quotes. i got it from here www.livescalping.com I think you dont understand what i mean by single click trading. i will put a video together showing theplatform and how that works. I have nothing to gain by...

no. i have accounts with many others but use fxcm for probably 99% of all my trades now. on a fast moving market you will have difficulty getting a trade filled or exited with any broker. i have never even heard of spreadCo. sorry. IGmarkets are to be avoided in my opinion. They took over...

fxcm. there are a couple of reasons i use them. 1. they have a single click trade button, which is great for multiple trades in a move. no resetting numbers of faffing around. 2. they give me rebates every month. Many times i will close a trade for B/E because it didnt give me the exact...

I will take a look at john burford at moneyweek for trendlines. always good to get a perspective, but i must admit to favouring parallel ones, and not necessarily pulled from two lows/highs either. can be caught out by restricting your eyes to those levels. You arent the first person to ask me...

what you need to watch for KIUK, is that you get a good entry. if you are looking for such a small gain you have to be near a good cut point. ie 3-5 pips away. and stick to it . I use a catastrophic 20 point stop and am quite happy to cut if it breaks a new high by one or two pips only. The...

I have now posted quite a few daily videos, and will continue to do so. I try to explain what i do and what i base my reasoning on. 'John ftseman' is my youtube name. Hopefully you can understand my scottish sultry tones :-) I could post pictures here to show what i do, but it is much easier...

seven pages later and i see this isn't the place for constructive discussion - im wasting my time here. good luck with your trading guys. all the best. John

That is very kind of you to try and "let me down gently". Of course you are entitled to your opinion. You will know that calling trades and targets can change depending on many factors. There is the timing aspect, there are price action factors, there are candle shapes which give rise to market...

futures dont have these gaps that i trade. also i find i can read the ftse much easier than anything else. Every market has its peculiarities and i feel comfortable with ftse100. The spread is fine if 1point.
