Here's a question to anyone trading this method using Tick data. How do you deal with the possibility of multiple solutions, IE, there could be theoretically an infinite amount of combinations of PNR and the subsequent run after that which equal 90%. One idea is to choose the possibility...

Just a thought, if price AND time have to line up for signals doesn't that reduce trade frequency even if it may increase probability? IE, does it increase % win enough to offset decrease in total PnL?

Just practice on SIM. 2k deposit... you will either not make anything or likely blow out very honestly. Your time is best spent backtesting or observing the market if thats all you are willing to risk. All the best.

Calling CY as well as a few others tomorrow early morning. If anyone can report their experience as well I would appreciate it.

Wow, I seriously was out of it when I posted that. I haven't done stocks/overnight in a long time... very correct in identifying my question as ignorant, as it was. Can anyone tell me what are the interest rates for overnight holds for a prop vs something like interactive brokers? Lets...

I'd be interested to know if anyone here just using this chart alone, could have called the short ahead of time. On my end I see flip of all resistance, potential of right shoulder holding. Of course, after the RS broke, it was a short down to retest the low, but from my POV it was a buy...

Bump... Interested if this exists on a firm that does not charge interest for OVERNIGHT HOLDS.

Huge amount of positive energy in this thread. Marry Christmas to all, may you all decide to be happy and bring it to those around you. The good thing here is no pill is required.

Some good things are said by people here who have practiced meditation. Anyone who hasn't practiced meditation to some degree (whether sitting in a pose, or being in the zone fully involved in some creative activity), is not yet truly living. If you don't experience bliss on a daily basis...

Thank you for your response Ivica. How about when a gap increases the real risk from 1% to 10-20%? Does that happen as often as the wins?

Ivica, Do you do anything to mitigate overnight risk for stocks? Just wondering, I would like to swing some stocks but the overnight risk discourages me...

There's a story about a man who went to jail for a political protest. He was a deeply spiritual man. He sat in silence with a smile on his face all day long. When a guard came knocking one day offering him his freedom in exchange for political cooperation, the man responded, "You came here to...

Freedom is free :). It's a mindset that doesn't cost a dollar. Having lots of cash is good though :D . Congratulations on following through to live the life you wanted to.

I don't think there is a single example on Earth where money has brought true happiness. No one accumulates enough to be satisfied because this is not possible. Happiness is easy, but the accumulation of more things is the exact opposite of the formula towards it. Now, the getting rid of...

Thank you for the suggestion, i have been doing some shopping around. Indeed, there are better options including dukascopy, IB, MBTrading. GAIN is the counterparty to all TS forex trades and theres lots of hidden costs not reflected in the commission. The only thing i liked about GAIN is...

Hi all, I was wondering what some intraday forex traders here use as a minimum target in relation to the spread on the pairs they trade. I am coming from index futures where NQ and ES usually have a spread of 1 tick. Obviously, this is not the case with Forex. So, if I am using ALL limit...

Keep trading the plan, as long as the head is clear. You are doing good work. Also, no need to answer the question about news I read earlier and found the answer. I am looking to potentially get more into forex... tried it a while back but considering giving it another shot. Will be...

:) +1. I do believe you know some truths. Best wishes... sending good thoughts your way. What all are the pairs you trade? Do you sometimes wait for news to come out to rule out potential slippage or is the timeframe you trade in make the inconsequential? A visualization of your goal plus...

The only way to know if it is stealing is that own personal feeling you get after engaging in the act. Does it make you weaker, stronger, do nothing for you? Only you can answer that...
