Here's an interesting concept that no one has priced in, what happens if the next move is down and not up. The markets are just confused, on the GBPUSD short term (minute charts) looks up, mid term (hourly charts) looks neutral to down, and long term looks up (daily charts). BOE are talking move...

Here's the thing, at $50/hr it is presumed that the specification is airtight, they will get a coder for that who are given the specification, they give back the code, and if it doesn't work that's the spec writers problem. They don't care about profit share. Profit share only works if one...

Life works towards the lowest common denominator, and these days people are slow, which means the time to market is much longer than it used to be. It all works on an exponential curve, what used to be 1-2years is now 3-5years, and in the not so distant future 3-5years will become 7-10years...

Do know a group of companies that have all the underlying tech they use internally but haven't pulled it in to a product, it's fed out to a fund. Currently using a forex system that was internally developed pulling down 1million datapoints per day in to SQL, processing in to OHLC, and then run...

Excellent call, ready to use, and lose, their capital in seconds rather than having to install anything on a home computer. Brings in a whole new funding source to the markets.

Cloud is the new mainframe, as it's centralized it's cheaper to run and maintain. Personally don't like them for platforms, one more thing to go wrong and a middleman to get in the way. If their site goes down, they perform a central upgrade, latency issues it can affect trade decisions. Cloud...

That's one possibility, however there is another, or both combined which is an interesting one. As everything has built up in to a pyramid people are trying to find a 'backstop', which means they need experience to hold on to what they have. There are a few who also worked out that's what you...

Sorry, all the money trees are sold out at the moment.

Spend time writing something helpful because some very nice people, actually high end architects, previously gave the ranges, and then they reply with this nonsense, knew the world wasn't smart but that's ridiculous. They must want the 'stone soup' method of work!

That would all depend on what level you need: architects (80-100%); process based (60-80%); technology based (40-60%); nearshore (20-40%); offshore (0-20%). They go from the most expensive down, it's based on percentage of experience. An architect will tell you the flaws in your strategy just...

You really did miss the point didn't you, this is about short timeframes so will have some fun. 1. Short timeframes don't care about the bias hence -why- they are short timeframes, the difference is that you 'might' get caught in the swing move to make a higher multiple 2. Unless you are...

Absolutely, the short timeframes allow you to be in and out of the market and it provides more trades, a 1m you can expect 1-2 high probability trades per day, 1s-10s around 7-10 of them. Trading short only is a strategy, collapses generally but not always are faster than the climb, but it makes...

And so here is the conclusion. 1. Learn prevention which is not just trading but affects all aspects of your life 2. Treat it as a hobby and enjoy your time with it rather than making money 3. Ignore trading exists and go and do something else you find interesting 4. Create books...

Your friend is correct, although it's a little more complex than that. The 1m will gauge a move, actually the 1s, 100ms will also but not many can go to this level, it's a Matryoshka. The problem is the 1m can be whipsawed by the higher timeframes, so when they are in unison they start at the...

What most don't know there are direct Ponzi schemes but also indirect Ponzi mechanics, the difference is simple but the end result is the same. A direct Ponzi is where you have actus reus and mens rea combined, an indirect Ponzi is based on the mechanics of a Ponzi but there is no direct mens...

What is wrong with everyone, all you have to do is a Google search for 'goldman give away software', obviously the forums have averaged out to the intelligence an amoeboid. Actually that's not fair to amoeboids! As Richard Dennis quoted "I've always said that you could publish my rules in a...

Fantastic, another idiot has 'come to the fore'. Much appreciated. Yes, those two cover it quite well but better to be quiet than listen to endless amounts 'of noise' from the 'clueless'. It's actually quite easy once you find the first 'noise', then you just need to look for their followers...

You hit the nail on the head, nice to see someone with intelligence in these forums! A trade will take however long it takes, the markets couldn't care less what any opinion is, but to give everyone a break, it often stalls because a higher timeframe move is in play!

Wait, stop, did someone say the "why cant GBP keep going lower?", and then it bounces higher, that's too funny!

Because the stupid traders, or smart depending on how you look at it, decided not to confirm the signal before the Brexit collapse. Whether they can handle the increased volatility is another matter.
