Thanks, those are indeed options to consider.

Thanks. As far as I understand now, the problem is with them opening an account in the UK at all which I need to be done with the same broker as me in order to connect their accounts to my platform and be able to execute trades automatically (I'm FX scalper/day trader and execution speed matters...

Pure logic: Random entries don't produce the same result. Market is no different than ever, same stuff works for years already. What else can it be then?

Probably but my win rate is around 50% only lately. And of course I tested random entries with same MM principles applied. Not even closely the same outcome. And logically if it was so, it would be a cash machine for literally anyone, because MM is very simple, but somehow we don't see crowds of...

I asked Surf if he uses HV or IV to construct his channels. He never replied. :)

Odds may be lower than 50/50, I don't see it as a critical point of trading. What is critical is that entries provide odds of continuation enough to make trading overall profitable. You can see that I have around 50% profitable trades, but overall average profit factor is still around 1.70...

Yes I agree, but I believe most private traders do it because they like freedom in many senses, the top one being the freedom of committing your own and not someone else's decisions, so do I at a current point. And prefer to only accept clients who I know will always understand everything I do...

Haha, yeah we do observe and discuss everyone for nearly 15 years together already. No poodle though, but 4 cats and a pet crow. :D

One can also ask why do OPM under someone else's conditions when you can do OPM under your own conditions and with only those people you personally want to deal with. :)

Yea, some people are just lucky! :D P. S. I like the saying "the more I practice the luckier I get". :p

Ya, but brother Surf persuades me that I don't trade TA, just don't know about it yet. :)

Surf, I posted 50+ live 3rd party verified TA trades track record with an average profit factor of 1.7. How is that not an evidence? :) Have a good day!

Will be a pleasure for me. :) I have nothing against criticism, even the opposite, it helps me whether I don't delude myself.

That's an interesting question indeed. Maybe they have different standards i. e. they only consider a trading method serious if it stands 100% objective and mechanical testing. I've heard institutions tend to stick to this standard, because relying on personal trader's abilities doesn't allow...

Also, the atmosphere of less mechanical communication with the professor I believe gives the student a lot of invaluable information inputs (as we speak of those today) starting from cultural habits of intelligent people and ending with feeling how professionals think about the topic in the...

Unfortunately they turn to the testing system as well, which I heard is already criticized on the West. When I was a student we didn't have tests yet indeed, but complex exams in the form of talk with professor about the topic as a whole.

Simple answer: my own experience is the proof. Yes I believe in science, after all 5 generations of my ancestors were scientists. But there is no such thing as "science" in the sense there only are people, scientists. And when some people say X is impossible while I look and see it clearly...

No, he's the person way beyond the expertise of any shrink, he's Irish. :D If seriously, he's my good friend who helped me quite a lot when I was yet struggling to become consistent several years ago. I witnessed and witness what he does for years and he witnesses what I do, so we have a lot...

My definition of trend is not actually "my" but the one of Charles Dow. Series of higher highs or lower lows. Have no idea if it's possible to mechanically test it in order to define the structural edge. Probably it's one of the kinds of the information trained human brain processes easily, but...

Simple. Those tests didn't consider some information and were plain wrong. No biggie, back in XIX century head of British scientific academy said everything science could it already discovered, period. Can you imagine that? I can. Academics can combine amazing amount of encyclopedic...
