    Independent Review of WallStreet1928

    If you ignore the claims about the number of pips acheived as it's not relvant as far as I'm concerned - measuring pips is a bit like using a ruler to measure temperature IMO; you know you need to measure something but not quite sure how - and look to the analysis that WS is posting then I can...

    Wallstreet1928 Analysis & live calls on FTSE,DAX,S&P...aimed to help New traders

    Re: Wallstreet1928 Analysis & live calls on FTSE,DAX,S&P...aimed to help New traders If it had been at £2/point then £480 but still 40 points on one trade and 60 on the other so, from my perspective, depends if I'm counting points or £. I'd show this as a total of 48 points averaged over the 2...

    Re: Wallstreet1928 Analysis & live calls on FTSE,DAX,S&P...aimed to help New traders From a SB perspective, I'd have it as 2 seperate postions so would treat each one as a trade in it's own right [assumption here being that full position is £5/point - to WS's point about averaging in - so 1...

    Re: Wallstreet1928 Analysis & live calls on FTSE,DAX,S&P...aimed to help New traders "Until you are honest enough to give a stright answer to simple question such as how many pips do you earn if you close 3 lots at + 40 and 2 lots at +60 your returns are meaningless" At a quid a point/pip, £240?

    My tuppence (not an averaged tuppence, nor 1/3 or 2/3 of a tuppence, nay even a spread 'twixt tuppence and sixpence, but a whole, at-the-market tuppence) on this debate for anyone who cares to read: I believe WS is genuinely trying to help people with reading and understanding the markets and...

    FTSE 100 data for "real" open

    The FT publish hourly data - it's on their website. They publish a FTSE 100 level at 8.03 which can be a good proxy for the open

    FTSE unlucky for me the 13th

    Mitchy - doesn't sound like you have your rules down. Maybe you do and you jsut didn't mention them. What makes you take a trade? How do you define you entries and exits?

    My stops are the low/high of the range +/- the IG spread which is a couple of points different to Tom but does make the RR slightly worse. Stopped out.

    Will be volatile today with triple witching so could be a good time for a smaller position with wider stops....??
