So you bought calls? Do you use vertical spreads? I also have thought of Boeing as a good opportunity for a discount. Horrible news this year, but they are still 1 of only 2 major airplane manufacturers.

These are fake currency pair trades. The reason for posting this is to see what changes to my strategy should be made, and I am still open to the possibility that none of this is a good idea. My GUESSES for today. Two trades. 1. I bought GBP/JPY. I bought this because GBP went down yesterday...

So far luck is the common denominator.

True. I probably wouldn't either. But others might. I've learned a lot from Internet forums over the years. I can't even tell you how much I've learned from home repair forums. I can wire or plumb a whole house without ever having been employed as either of those things. Nobody on those forums...

Is there anyone on this site who has actually been successful?

Is that your total profit is negative $300,000usd? Or did you not add your wins to that?

I actually don't have that much free time. I have at least 4 things that would take precedence over this at any given moment. I don't think I could make myself stare at a computer all day.

Well there's people like George Soros who made billions even without leveraging. Also one time there was a kid working at a club with a Ferrari. He showed me the keys and told me he traded Forex. I have no reason not to believe him. He was about 28 years old I would guess. And there's...

What are the most commonly used moving averages?

In trading.

Do any people on here make >40%? That's the reason why in my original post, I said only leveraged investing interests me. It's the only way to reach those percentages. I looked back at currency pairs, and the majority of them are +/- 100% on the year. Many even over 200%. So if I guessed...

And where's that?

Ok. What platform must I download to trade mini futures? Are these straight from the CME or a broker?

So after a sharp downturn happens, what do you do exactly?

You sure this isn't like seeing patterns in the stars in the night sky? Surely, since you've put in so much of this hard work, you have great insights to tell us. How do you know when you win that it wasn't a false positive?

Is that a technical indicator or just a type of chart?

Then it becomes about understanding what the forces are that have been moving a price in a certain direction. Problem #1: Depending on what timescale you're looking at, you don't even know what direction the price is going or in what magnitude. And there are no textbooks written on these...

Ok. So what are the best technical indicators to use in your opinion? I basically know that TA is very far off from the factors that actually drive price long-term. But that could be okay because in short-term, prices may be more based on momentum, news, and data releases.

What platform do you trade on? What work exactly? At what point did you enter that trade and why?
