Yes, that is the risk with the method I can clearly see that now. Thanks.

How do I know when to pull the plug for the system I am trading? I have thought of a method and to my delight I have found that this is a method that traders are really using. It was like a heureka for me when I found that I had thought out stuff that pro (?) traders are using, although...

I have a question I hope we could discus here. I'm wondering how I should solve the following situation. I have a few systems, one is good when markets are trending up, the second is good when markets are trending down, and the third is good when markets are mostly going sideways. I...

amibroker has an automation plug in to use with interactive brokers

How would you know when the market has changed? Just by using your eyes looking at the charts? The human brain is superior in spotting patterns they say... Yet why do traders fail to see that markets change? :confused:

Thanks for your input, Bitstream. I'm more of a position trader, but I'm planning on looking into intraday just to see if it fits me. Do you consider leveraged trading to be for intraday trading only or would one use it for holding positions overnight, I understand that there are interest to...

The most important thing is to know when the markets change? Then to what it has changed, and then react to this by applying a new strategy that works for the new market.

I think I understand your point about using leverage to diversify; To use it in order to be able to minimize the risk, by dividing the capital on more trades, instead of just risking more capital in one trade in order to gain more. Is this correct?

I recommend Amibroker.

Good,day, I'm wondering a bit about leveraged trading. I think it sounds like a sweet deal, if you have a profitable strategy and good money management rules that you stick to. Say I have 10 000 risk capital that i want to leverage 5:1, which gives me 50 000. My money management rules...

I got thinking about this from some negative posts in the thread "what salary..." regarding that markets will change as well as the economic outlook. That markets have been particularly good for trading the last few years, and that may change...

Not at all. Were they that ugly? :confused:

spend? :confused:

The t2w forum has a newbie section, i think it's a quite nice idea. I don't think there would be hard to find a sponsor for a newbie section here on ET. It would be a goldmine for advertising "the holy grail", wouldn't it? :D

Yes, andread is right. It would be a place where more seasoned traders would take their time to answer newbie's questions, not the other way around. Often if a newbie asks a question in an ongoing thread it gets lost or forgotten. Or starts a thread and just gets some diffuse answer which in...

So true

Love how those document pages are number ends with page 10 of 66 etc... :D

Nice shoes! "How I lost half my salary in one week" - By investing in a hedgefund that was founded by paying with paypal!

That's a good post I think. I think that people ultimately could earn what they want to earn, if they, just as you say, develop a plan to get there and do everything neccessary in order to succeed. Want to earn 7 figures? Then you cant just sit around feeling sorry for yourself and envy...
