"Sharing stuff" is common, esp the advice that Steve received. Been shared for years. But losers don't listen . . . :(

Anyone who's ever known an addict of one sort or another won't have any trouble understanding this thread . . .

That's what you said yesterday. I'm reminded of all those wannabees who go to LA to make it big. Or NY. No interest in learning their craft. They just want to make it big. And how many do? There's really no point in replying to posts like this. Mine is more of a shrug cast heavenward...

You say you're "supposed" to limit your losses to $50/ctr, so you should not have lost more than $150 on 3. So where did the $960 come from?

Under these conditions, particularly if Trader B is attempting to predict, then one of these scenarios does seem to be more objective than the other. However, there is the "so what?" factor to consider. For example, the 10MA (simple, exponential, weighted) crossed the 50. So what? What do...

The argument could be made that the exact opposite is true, that the indicator is always subjective, given the nearly infinite choice of settings, all selected by the trader (even if he selects "default"). Price, on the other hand, is price.

How are you defining "divergence"?
