Pips are meaningless.

I'm also honlding Eur/CZk and currently up + 1,240 pips in two days < meaningless.

The only thing that matters is my percentage, which only - 2.862 %

Rav, try trading as many positions as I have already on this thread and see where you end up, highly doubtful you could do better.

DT why not just managed one position and pair & specialise in it ? if your ending up as is juggling etc. Do you have to trade as many pairs ,seems like spinning plates on sticks ,why not snooze in a hedgerow with one eye open and a fat finger ready to prod?
 
I do only trade and specialize in one 'thing', that being my formula.

It's one trade diversified.

I have different 'Flys' for all the major currencies, the problem is that since everyone trades in such a simplistic fashion the formula has trouble trading due to biased trends driven by interest rates.

Market Dictation

The markets are to become complicated beyond what is calculable.

Free money only exists until capital flows become equalized, this will happen when people realize the obvious profitable positions they could be holding. When people start piling to these positions, the positions will then become weak, because it will open up 'Stoploss hunting' do to discreptencies between what is likley probable to happen and what 'is' happening.

Example: Gbp/Chf is moving up.

Gbp is technically the profitable currency held long, do to interest rates.
At the same time though, major players know where the relevent S/L will be placed accociated with any positions held do to interest rates.

Major players watching volume and cross referencing with 'Interest rate probable direction' are able to be 'Side lined' until markets 'Stop out' positions, lose momentum, then enter positions in probable direction after market participants have exausted position volume.

Example: Gbp/Chf
In an upward tend, major players could see where Stops are placed. See stops hit, then enter long after all Majority of original buys were covered.

(meaning) Watching volume and positioning, one could see when there is no more sellers cover there original buys.
..So one would know there is no more sellers likely because all the original buys have been sold, hence the market can only rise.


All responses, comments, critisism welcome

Hi, Depth Trade.


That was an amazing trade entry yesterday. Excellent.
Thankyou Pearl Fisher for the positive feed back.

Please continue to watch PEI, there have been serious modifications to my strategy.

I have just realized after plus two years of trading my strategy, that the requests for qoutes I was basing my math off of was being rounded up slighty. I realized this after entering by hand into a calculator then comparing the quote to what my charts where showing me; a huge discreptency between prices shown on quote and actual price accociated with my formula.

...So on this thread I show being down about -3.0%, but since my epighany I have regained 0.5% in less than two weeks. Everything going as planned, I will knock out my loss in a matter of weeks and will never look back.

Anyone, please feel free to comment or question any of the previous discussion.

DT
