Yes, plus FA is very boring. If I believe that in 3 years, the USD will be in better relative position to AUD than it is today... That's great. Maybe I'm right. But how boring is that to do nothing for 3 years lol

Were you following the meaningless trend line? Either way, this proves that FA is the real forces that drive markets.

Is your SL a certain % of your overall portfolio?

In that context, how meaningless does this graph of late 2015 seem? See my point?

This seems impossible to do without staring at charts all day. Since I have other priorities, I need a stop-loss and take-profit set right away.

What are your rules for setting stop-loss and take-profit?

What's your typical hold period? I just read a multi indicator strategy involving Bollinger Bands, RSI, and On Balance Volume. I would like to use it except that my platform doesn't have OSB.

Tell me what combination of indicators to test. And on what time frame.

Tell me your personal system for using moving averages to tell you when to enter or exit a trade.

Someone told me Fx is not volatile enough for most short-term trading strategies.

Is this the truth? And are you sure? Do others agree? Technical trading systems can be back tested, you know.

Can you briefly describe your system of indicators?

Is moving average considered a form of trend line? I knew it was a "trend indicator," but wasn't sure if that was the same as "trend line." If so, I'm all for using moving averages! This seems to make sense using intraday momentum. I would also like to incorporate a volume indicator as further...

Can you give me an example of what you mean by system? I'll guess what I think you mean. A system in trading = a combination of technical indicators (including trend lines) that tells you when to enter a trade. Set "stop loss" and "take profits" at predetermined intervals for the risk you're...

I use IG. Can't seem to find it on there. But I am much more interested in computer generated trend lines than in ones I draw myself.

I'm stuck on wondering if any of these trends are actually real in the first place. And if any positive results would just be false positives.

Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle says that the more precisely you measure somethings location, the less precisely you can measure it's velocity/momentum, etc. Similarly, the more you zoom in on a chart, the less meaningful the trend lines are. On a tick chart, they're all but meaningless...

I would like most to be done in under a week. I would do 10-20 minutes if that would work. I'm open-minded to a lot. I just want it long enough so I know the trend lines mean something.

Agreed.

What is meant by cycle?
