JDKGROUP, 1) I am sorry but please clarify what was the total cost??? 2) And what kind of power does your desktop have to power up and run charts/trading on all those monitors? 3) Does JDKGROUP have any meaning or relevance to your current endeavors? 4) It would help to know which...

Riskfreetrading, I like your "the cut of your jib." I agree with you entirely. How long have you been trading? Do you trade just options spreads? And, what is your trading method? No, I don't mean for you to give away your secret indicators/code, but certainly in the spirit of this forum...

2010 then.

So, speaking of filters, how about the one below? Wel,, have you tried it; I seem to hear a lot about this one.

PLEASE ADD THE SUBJECT OF POSITION-SIZING TO MY LIST ABOVE. Let's swing with it....

Of the three question types you listed, I am partcularly interested in interpreting backtested results correctly and identifying mirages from the journeyman system to the Strateverri (spelling off). What are characteristics of different systems----types of combinations of profit factor to...

So, was this lecture moved some place else? I thought that was what was going to happen, but did not see anything? Seems like the delay and confusion lost some people. If so, a simple skeletal step 1-10 bullet point recap with any special points/warnings highlighted additionally in a quick 2...

FIREFLYX, YOU SOUND LIKE AN OLD HAND AT THIS WITH PRACTICAL SUCCESSFUL EXPERIENCE. YOU SEEM TO BE RATHER CRYPTIC THOUGH IN WHAT YOU WANT TO SAY AND NOT SAY. YOU DON'T HAVE TO GIVE PRECISE NUMBERS AND FORMULAS, BUT CAN YOU ELABORATE PLEASE, IN A COMPREHENSIVE FASHION, ON WHAT SPECIFIC...

Mark, Ok, SO ARE WE NOW FINALLY ABLE TO MOVE ON WITH THE MECHANICS OF BUILDING A SYSTEM FROM SCRACTCH? I've been waiting patiently for this to resume after your Tradersdudio dutuies per your promise in April. Let's get it rock and rolling? I've been learning a lot more on my own since...

Mr. Ruggiero, So, is this thread dead? Did you or anyone else find the free data source to continue on with a group experiement? -Swingman

Post some results for whatever YOUR favorite currency pair or Dollar Index, if you prefer, to see what happens, due to the fact that successful results are market dependent as you say, since currencies have certainly moved quite a bit the last 5 years. Should make a killing if indeed robust.

So, these are moving averages: short base breakout of 15 and longer fail safe of 30 to confirm a trend, to use your example? BTW, I infer you think moving averages in general are the most effective T/A tools and tactics out there--better even then ORB and volatility based techniques? Thanks.

lWell, some of us like myself are probably more concerned with certain specific core concepts and this might generate more ad hoc excitement and participation. I myself am interested in exits mainly, strategy evaluation and the intricacies of system optimization. HOWEVER, since we're at...

What?!? How long have you said you've been doubling monthly? When did you discover you had this gift?

Mr. Double, I am completely at a loss as to what your general strategy is, jumping from currency to currency. I assume it's a technical strategy, but what are the signals based on? Moving averages, volatility, RSI, Stochastics (unlikely)...what? And, what intervals and timeframes are you...

Can you remember his handle, I'd like to read his posts before I believe it. I'm new to these threads.

Is this in some kind of order? Order of priority/preference? If so, why CAD ahead of JPY? I heard the GBP has the biggest swings and trends, yet many people don't like to trade it. Maybe due to the fact that have trouble with it??? Why is that?

Xephen, Yes, I've had problems with the short side in building a robust system. It always ends up DRAGGING or even CRUSHING a good long-side. Any advice or clues on how to rectify this? That would greatly be appreciated, as it's frustrating. I've obviously been guilty of using the same...

Xephen (or Murray when you get better), Do you mean a stop and reversal volatility breakout system? Please tell me more about the mechanics, and where do the stops come in, if any?

Okay, but have you known very successful traders/managers who scalp very short timeframes?
