    Yes, that was what I said - longer term is ok when employing wider stops and less leverage. However, it is more difficult to predict longer into the future - especially when the condition/situation is more complex, as the outcome becomes murkier. "Noise" is just many factors adding to the...

    That is true when you adjust to lesser size, wider stops and target. However, in some market conditions - where there is great volatility and very abrupt moves can happen, as well as no clear trend is apparent - then longer term trades are much riskier. That is a simple consequence of "the...

    Back and it seems the USD went down on the JPY, a few taps and now we are getting back in there... The EURUSD helping with a good rise, while USDJPY still a bit limp. Seems that the USDJPY is getting worried about its performance and wanting to go down again, but we are towards the end of the...

    Q3 JPY large companies with results as well as various outlook statements this week. BoJ said flat growth now, but around 1.2% next year - if I recall. I expect EURJPY to stop messing around, grow some "huevos" and get to third base soon... It better rise quickly and score for me.:D It...

    Ivan's Trade Thread, part II

    I'm kind of half-busy with other stuff, so not the best trading setting for me - but I'm sticking to the trade so far. The biggest risk as a scalper is always seeing every tick in "the right direction" as "yes, I was right" - or getting arrogant and thinking "I know better than the market". So...

    Long EURJPY 135.33 maybe for +50 or just above 135.50 ... stop around -30 . Even went double on this at 135.37 ... Will see if this can push to 136 - it looks promising. Right now we are getting closer to the last hours of US RTH trading - so back to some reality. Aff, looks like USDJPY...

    If you have relatively tight stops - then longer term trades are very prone to being stopped by volatility. When markets are greatly affected by news - like now - then longer term becomes very risky - even with wide stops, and that means that you need to be right on longer term trades, you...

    I meant to say "Yen", not "Yes" above... Well, it has been interesting ... Long EURJPY 135.06, just some bounce scalp for now - but will see if it has potential for more than +100pips. Long EURUSD 1.3309 some bounce as well. Stops around -30pips. (It was USDJPY which made me decide to...

    Probably some substantial news for Yes with Q3 numbers and projections from major Japanese companies this week. European package taking effect from this Monday as well. EURJPY interesting as always for scalping.

    Google stock a huge buy

    Listen, Google needs to transform. Right now they are a huge company in terms of human resources, but their income comes from ads/banners and search indexing. Those two technologies are easily contested, improved and can be surpassed by a team of smart people in a garage company. That is...

    Is Obama a Muslim in the eyes of our enemy?

    So, the premise of your beliefs and this post is that Muslims are your enemies? Are you sure you are not an islamophobe? Are you religious, and if so - are you really a fundamentalist? :p

    He includes "Vegas, drugs, massages" on his list of personal motivation goals and that money can buy... so, he is not drunk. :D

    Stocktrad3r's new youtube video on trading the markets

    What a crock of BS. His first statements and those on the whiteboard are patently false - leading to false premises for most of his other rant. Those who make "training material" are those who no longer know how to trade, and realize they'll never get rich - so they start teaching instead. It...

    Wait, does "tape reading" mean watching TaS? Or looking at price charts?

    When I do "tape reading" off futures, I watch charts, but also the DOM/price-ladder with the orderbook changes and all. When I do "tape reading" off forex, I watch the charts and the "price action" on the charts/quote. Both are pretty similar, and user Dnaj65000 is correct in saying the...
