Most traders cannot define in words why they put a support zone here and a resistance zone here. So what they're saying is that they are good car drivers because sometimes they stop at a red light and sometimes they go through but so far they have not been killed. This doesn't mean that these...

Well then, just keep doing it. Whatever it is.

Forex gets a bad name for scams, especially those run by brokers based in small countries with weak regulation, possibly helped in those places by corrupt politics and judiciary. Maybe forex is not worse than any other business run in for example Vanuatu. Let's suppose you want to import some...

Sounds familiar. I've been asked to show account details, order details, all open positions, exact entry and exit times, etc. etc. the whole works. I always decline. But not to be intimidated I have for years been posting each strategy I am using, in full detail either here or at babypips or...

I think such a blog would be a good idea and constructive for so many traders to read. You just have to be prepared that whenever you get a large number of traders in one place, many of them will only be there because they want to be seen telling you as a trader that whatever you're doing is...

Great achievement to make such a winning percentage in a short time. The approach you describe here sounds highly reactive and subjective. I don't wish to sound patronising but it sounds like the approach of a painter versus the approach of a draughtsman - like you can paint as wonderful a view...

This is more than a surprise. I'm about 50-50 between Reform, staying at home or spoiling my ballot paper.

Alpesh Patel appears as genuine as anyone I've met in any field. He advocates trend-following. He has for years been a fund manager so not likely to follow techniques we would use as private retail traders. And I'm not convinced the techniques a fund would use are right for us anyway. If you...

His website makes a lot of noise about giving away free trading - it mentions "Free" no less than 13 times. Well, he doesn't need to set up his own website for that, he could simply come to Trade2Win and post some useful knowledge here. For free. So in truth he is a teacher wishing to sell...

It's quite common for an expert to show you a chart on the internet and say, well, look, price made this pattern or showed this behaviour and I thought that means XYZ, so I went long here and made 5 times my risk. What they don't show you is that they also had sell orders set which did not...

I suppose we could develop a range of possible explanations for what Ali did - 1. he's such an idiot that he was taken in by anti-Jewish conspiracy theories 2. he doesn't believe that stuff but he's such an idiot that he thought it would be a good idea to chase the anti-Jewish demographic for...

You're right, I voted Remain but that was because I thought the referendum was premature and asked the wrong question anyway, and meanwhile we were doing well economically through being in the EU. I hope for a competent Conservative leader to be ready for the 2029 General Election. But that...

I think we've seen the last of emaek.

How did you achieve developing and testing a strategy which demands 24/7 screen time when you do not have time available 24/7?

We have had sinking government since Cameron's decision to hold a Brexit referendum. Sadly we are at least 5 years away from anything better.
