    Where is the money coming from?

    I don't have time to respond to nonsense.

    Where is the money coming from?

    Actually my only real money investment is gold, which went up today.

    Are you saying that volume indicators are worthless in Forex? Why don't they have volume?

    Where is the money coming from?

    Some days (like today so far), it seems like everything goes to. Stocks are up, gold is up, bonds are up. Where is the money coming from? Is it being created by the Fed through bank lending? Is the total money supply getting larger?

    2. RSI going up over what timeframe? If this is a daily chart, how many consecutive days should it have gone up before this? 4. I'm not going short.

    If the strategy can die, then it wasn't a good strategy. I'm starting to think there is no good strategy. So then how do I know when to place trades? Although I do KNOW FOR A FACT that fundamentals move markets. Not TA. So maybe I should stick to FA? I'm open to suggestions, just don't want...

    So then there's no way to prove a strategy? Please explain.

    I read a "good" indicator combo online. The rules are... 1. Wait for price to close above middle Bollinger Band (20 ma). 2. Make sure RSI is above 50 3. Make sure OBV has been rising (although it doesn't exactly define parameters for this) 4. Set stop-loss at level of lower Bollinger Band at...

    I went to Stockholm a few months ago and I thought it sucked. Not because of any immigration, but because it was boring as hell and everything was overpriced. A meal at a restaurant will be $35-$50. Not even joking. They want about $12 for a two-hour public transportation pass. And Uber is just...

    Am I correct in assuming that this requires you to be at your computer for many hours per day? Or is this not the case because of your bots?

    So you must have hold times that are just a few hours on average?

    On my Fx app, the USD value of 1 lot differs from pair to pair, but on EUR/USD 0.06 lots is only $134. At 0.06 lots, you would make $30 at 50pips. Is that what you mean? At those small amounts, doesn't the bid-ask spread get in the way?

    1. Are you 100% sure your account would increase and not decrease? 2. Would it be less than $500,000?

    You never answered my question about starting with $300k in an account. What would you have 12 months later.

    Well I'm trying to back test the first indicator combo I was thinking of. I realized it wasn't possible unless I'm actively watching charts regularly. I can't do that. I have other priorities. But that doesn't stop me from back testing, I suppose.

    I'm thinking I may do vertical option spreads on the S&P. I'm 2019, the S&P went up 33 weeks and down 19 weeks. That's a 63% win percentage.

    That's what I like about going bull on index funds. That's with the market most of the time. How long of a downtrend do you need to see before you consider it down? Here's a chart of S&P for 2019. How many downtrends do you see that would have been possible to identify at the time they were...

    I've also realized that I'm going to have to get a significant amount of money every week to make this worth my time. If I only bet $500, then even if I'm right every time, that's only $26,000/year.

    Seems like weekly is all I can do if the markets don't close every night.
