2% down on a candle chart is still 2% down on a bar chart, 2% down on a line chart and still 2% down on any other chart. You can take this further. Pretend you're talking about futures...all session chart in futures will produce different backtest results than regular session chart. Something...

Depends on how much is that excess cash. wrbtrader

I buy books from Amazon or local bookstores (old & new)...never have I returned a book. Maybe its me but I don't treat books like I would do for something like a slow cooker, laptop, office chair, calculator, Ninja professional juicer or camping equipement. I mention the latter above because...

Books on Amazon can be returned. https://www.amazon.com/gp/orc/returns/homepage.html Simply, seems like a refund to me unless I misunderstood Amazon's policies. Yet, the free content on Youtube videos obviously are not refundable considering its given for free. Regardless, what's wrong with...

Interesting observation...same price action but viewed/explained differently. Some will get it and others will not. Nothing new about it all. wrbtrader

I'm surprise you're interested in trading cryptocurrencies. You seem more like the fund type or someone interested wealth management via fund advisory. wrbtrader

It was useful, beneficial to share your "accreditation" background 10 - 30 years ago. Yet, in today's social networking problems involving privacy...not a smart thing to do and the info can be used against you that impacts your personally or professionally. Therefore, its best to share that...

If this forum had "job opportunity" listings or listing thru a 3rd party job listing site along with traders using their real names in their forum profiles... Members would disclose such private info about themself. Yet, someone that trades their own capital and obviously not seeking...

You can be a discretionary trader that uses a rule base trade method. On the flip side...you can be a discretionary trader with no rules or very little rules. I define a discretionary trader as someone that is not 100% automated. wrbtrader

The inability to accept losses that encourages a small loss to grow into a big loss along with ending the cycle of blowing out trading accounts is only an issue for discretionary traders or any other type of traders when they don't use a stop. Solution: Start using stops Yet, if your trade...

Your backtested results should be able to answer these questions for you... 4 points / 5 contracts versus 10 points / 2 contracts In addition, your backtest results should tell you what type of market conditions that are needed to be present for either of the above to occur. You'll then know...

You're still trying to jump the gun sort'uv speak. Right now you should only be concern with developing your trade strategy and then backtesting it to see if it merits moving into simulator trading instead of being concerned with issues that only an experience trader should be wondering about...

Backtest your trade strategy. If the results are positive...that's when you go to simulator trading. If you do it any other way (so far it seems like you're starting that way)...you're just going to become another failed trader that lost his/her real money. Backtesting is the best way to get a...

Thanks for the info about the correlations...very useful.

Yeah...just ask the moderators to close the thread when your thread has reached whatever you consider to be your limit of replies to your thread. I've seen many members have their threads closed when the thread author thinks the thread has run its course or they think the thread has gone too...

Never will be a disagreement about such.

Depends of the job type and your location.

Most jobs have "code of conduct" or Employee Handbook Very true for any decent job and they all have you sign paper work that you understand / agree to it prior to the employment becoming official. In fact, some types of jobs will have you sign additional paperwork associated with your...
