for example, if the spread is 3 pips for gbpchf(i'm not sure if this is true, but pretend it is) that would be a 3*9 = 27.... 27+27 = 54 bucks for a round trip say you lose 10 pips due to stops being hit: that would be 90 bucks loss 54+90 = 144 now say we have 2 losing trades...

I really like forex, especially because i can trade whenever.... but since the spread is pretty wide.. even if it's just 2-3 pips... that's still a lot of money.... say maybe 50 bucks round trip. entry and exit included.... now.... it seems like forex is not good for short term trade because of...

well, i would like to trade the currency pair whose market is open at the time... for example Frankfort is open at 2am easter time, lodon is open at 3am.... and since those 2 are nearly at the same time.... wouldn't CHF and GBP have more action around this time due to more volume coming in...

anyone familiar with this website and its correlation tables? I found this url link from niha's STR manual. it shows the 1hour and 1day correlation.... now i know lots of you look at all the GBP or all the EUR, or all USD for divergence.. like USDJPY USDCHF..... or GBPCHF GBPJPY...

i'm pretty new to forex, but i have been monotoring lots of them, and it seems that GBP/CHF has decent action.... its candles are tighter compare to some of the other instruments.... but people say EUR/USD has more liquidity right? well i guess it all depends on what hour of day i'm watching...

anyone looks at divergences between forex instruements? if so, which ones do you like the best?

Hey guys, If i'm a candlestick guy and wants to find a good forex instrument to trade via the 2min or 3min chart, what are some of the best forex instruments? I have checked out a lot of the forex charts, but tons of them are choppy, or have low liquidity it seems... and there's a gap...

Any Tradestation users here? Have you guys noticed that TS is starting to charge a $55 fee for CBOE data? i noticed this when my stretch and squeeze trigger stop to show anything..... now i trade ES so i really have no need for this YM data, but was wondering if anyone have been using let's say...

thanks guys. hey Tum, you know how to calculate YMH08 - $INDU in the radar screen ? i know spyder has this equation in his quotesheet in qcharts so he has the premium at all time throughout the day so he could take that premium and use it as the offset if his chart gets too skewed up...

yes i know that.. i wont be using it to get in every single trade... i will only use it at key turning points.. like FTT. But still, if i set the offset correctly before the market, but then the premarket trading screws it up big time... then wouldn't i need to reset the offset again to make...

Hey, Got a question regarding STR/SQZ.... my Tradestation shows premarket data... so this premarket data will most likely screw up my indicator right? eventhough the indicator has its offset correctly in the morning.

you just find a time when the market is not moving much... then just tweak with the number to get it to set to neutral where the bars are inside the -2 and 2 lines? how often do you change the offset though? what if the market today is very volatile from 9:30 all the way to 12... and from 2 to...

hmm i see... 'cuz a long time ago spyder said he just checks the price at which the YM closes vs the price DOW closes... and that will be his offset for the day. dont remember him saying he changes that during mid day. so that web site yo ushowed me... i got 79.92 when i checked.... but it...

so is this what you're seeing? there's basically no bar bellow 0 the entire day except one or two... also, my premarket data is screwing up the way the morning str/sqz looks.... is there any way to fix that? also i think the colors of the meter is a little off... 'cuz the bars that are...

ok so i opened a chart... entered the symbol YMH08... then inserted another symbol: $INDU so i got both of these charts on the screen then i create the easylanguage file and inserted the code: and i think from the web page you provided... the offset for the day was 79.2 right? so i entered...

set up YM and INDU 2m in the chart. ? how do i set up 2 charts into one? i'm a bit confused :)

hey, who uses Qcharts + Mbtrading? If so, has anyone noticed that the prices in qcharts' charts sometimes dont move for minutes while the quote moves just fine? (i'm running version 5) they say that i should switch to qcharts 6. but qcharts 6 doesn't allow intergration with...

holy moly... anyone in XING? it dropped 21%

Is anyone using Tradestation? I am thinking about switching to tradestation from qcharts..... but was wondering if i'll still be able to use the unusual volume (i think i can code the unusual volume into tradestation's radar screener right?) my primary concern is will i be able to use...
