So this guys is our beloved Rusky Troll right?

Not in my opinion. If you gain by trading in trend direction you'll probably develop levels of certainty. Suspect. Worth trading against. Wrong so get back on. Etc. I like wave counts, swing breaks and trendline breaks with some confirmation but you'll need to find what speaks to you.

There does seem to be some confusion here. If you have zero spread, bid and ask are the same so a trade takes place. If you trade in ticks the minimum is 1 and 1 or 2 is likely fine especially if its fairly consistent. Also companies make money by other mechanisms than just spread so focus on...

He's making a statement that is not mathematically correct. However it might be a reasonable approximation for his purposes although I'd expect standard deviation to balloon more for extreme moves. Compare Bollinger bands to Keltner channels to see this.

I think 1 and 2 are examples of 3. So 3.

Interactive Brokers offer this sort of functionality in their paper trading mode. I just checked and it's available without a funded account. https://gdcdyn.interactivebrokers.com/Universal/Application?ft=T&spltst=www

No. Like bloggers, even doctors have a fruit cake factor and 0.0001 is pretty low.

So of 12 Million doctors, 200 would sign the document. He'll, I'm convinced.

I recommend avoiding indicators as much as possible (if you succeed, ultimately they'll be gone although the odd ma & maybe the vwap might sneak in from time to time if enough of the money in your market watches them). Also skip expert, human, or even artificial advisors. You must develop your...

Nice job CV. Glad to see someone else realising that lawns are ecologically unsound.

That specific limitation applies only to the historical data.

If you stuck with "what's good about this" rather than creating fake straw men you'd be on sounder ground. Disparaging something you seem to know little about makes you look foolish. Instead, if you expound on your method it could be an interesting thread.

OK. I enjoyed that post and find it difficult to pick holes in. I'm not sure if its 95% or some other number but to me it varies from worse to better depending. A big part is finding the areas/times/situations that can offer 60% vs the areas that are 99% say. I've spent some time trying to...

Greetings voices from the past (and different places) and those who feel free - does that make one free or is one simply experiencing illusion? IFF, DB is and always has been a little ascerbic - which doesn't make him wrong. Like a lemon or lime, he may be good for what ails you. You said, in...

@NVP, Trader Dante learned some stuff from James16s material and simplified it. @NVP, Yes I see that the same old "why would someone who can trade, coach" theory continues. Personally I can trade and I coach a friend (pretty unsuccessfully) and know a guy who can trade and coaches around 20...
