Hello Mr. Progressapama, Noticed I can't enter a JadeFX forum anymore from the link on the JadeFX main web page. Was forum diminished? A bit weird to read postings where its not obvious that you're exact the person who established this brokerage back to 2009 and who is in best position to answer all queries of Indo-investasi good forum members in this thread. I feel I now lack of so needed transparency about JADEFX brokership, to make my own judgement if I feel I want to have business with it. Meanwhile, waiting for full operationing of Dukas MT4, as many good members here do.

Re: The Best MT4 Broker Recommended !!! Yeah.... having read below statements I found they're too good to be reasonably truth in my opinion, to run consistent business as a solid broker in FX. I can be wrong and I'm happy to be wrong here, but normally it happens when the business plan is poorly written or relies upon many people leaving their nano deposits inside. There is always a certain degree, a price, below which nobody will provide satisfactory service at FX. If someone says he will, I strongly doubt "why is that?". Guys, remember, this is you, who have money. Brokers compete with each other to get you as their client and your money, in the end, trading through them. Don't forget about your natural monopoly over making such decisions where you want to put your money for trading forex.

Re: (Req) McDaddy Trading course -Price Behavior Hi, here is the summary of the vid: http://transcripts.fxstreet.com/2006/10/a_study_of_pric.html Mike's site is http://spyglasstrading.co.uk *** Few days ago I found 3rd candle system here on our forum, pls read it and feel its simplicity, watch Mike's vids, you'll get more Price action feeling) http://www.4shared.com/file/204874849/ccee49b7/3rdcandle.html No pass. Thanks to initial contributor who shared it here on II. On 3rdcandle SYS I demoed it on GBPJPY yesterday and it worked 3 times out of 3 - taking 10-11 pips on M5. Small hint - I was doing that in second half of London session, after daily candle was mostly formed, so I was taking only SELLs on retracements (identified major downtrend), as per the SYS, which is basically breaking down of last fractal, stoploss was few pips above fractal top plus spread. On GBPJPY takeprofit could well be more than 10 pips, but 10 pips per trade is just fine as long as its consistent 10 pips per trade on a positive side ;) With more than 10 pips odds of having 3 out of 3 reduce exponentially in my opinion. Good luck! *** Mates, Mike sounds interesting, purely price action method which I like. In case any of you have more of his vids or other materials, please kindly share.

Re: Sedona Method m4b is audiobooks format. Gomplayer plays it just perfectly.

Re: What's your strategy for coping with big losses? Mate, the only advice I can give you is to ALWAYS know your Stoploss and set it to ALL your trades immediately. Basically this is the level which you feel comfortable to lose some money from your account and still can continue to trade. Acting in such a way you will NEVER experience stress with big losses. If your trading strategy is profitable, your wins will add more to your account than all losses. So just accept losses happened due to Stoploss. This is not to say you have to put your Stoploss in 5-10 pips from OrderOpen price. Be realistic. If your target is 40-50 pips and you havn't missed nice entry point, just right after you got your trade confirmation, then place your stoploss 2-3 pips behind last fractal, you'll be okay in 90% of the cases. Good luck!

Re: Breadth Internal Indicators Well, with stocks it was a day, which was one increment to decide whether stock was advancing or declining. And the volume was not ticks movement, but real traded volume. But with Forex, as ticks are just rice smallest increments and not a real traded volume, we can only say that white (advancing candle) had 100 ticks inside, 60 of which were u and 40 down. That's basically it. If this is 50 up and 50 down ticks - we basically have doji candle when candle open price and close price are at the same level. So I would consider counting ticks within same candle as to see only how actively was rice declining (advancing), so to see the ratio of declining ticks (or advancing) versus advancing. Practical implication of this is when we have such formula producing 50/50 = 1 result, then market basically found its interim equilibrium (balance) and robability to change direction increases (we have doji candle). Btw, your ADT formula looks a bit strange to me. Looks like we will always get 1 in your formula. Should be (Number of advancing stocks / Number of declining stocks) / (Volume traded by advancing stocks/Volume traded by declining stocks). In our Forex case we don't have Number of stocks. In our Forex case we have Number of stocks equals to number of ticks, which equals to number of ticks (there is no real volume in Forex). So we need just simple formula: Result = Number of ticks going upwards / Number of ticks going downwards. If we get Result = 1, then we reach market balance during this articular tick and our odds that market will change are to my opinion increase. If we have Result < 1 then candle was bearish. Similarly if we count Result for the whole day, if Result is <1, then Day candle was bearish. If we have Result > 1 then we have Bullish candle. So it became pretty simple now, I hope ;))

Re: Breadth Internal Indicators Mate, the purpose of TRIN is exactly to show you how well supported those advancers by volume. In our case it's not a volume, it's tick movements. If you can do this indi, let's try. Because if you check this picture http://s57.radikal.ru/i158/0909/aa/12cd8cc66705.jpg you will find that ticks movements are still showing some key levels when there is a market balance and it ready to go to change it's direction. Look at the picture - then you see current candle volume is exual in up and down ticks - so it's a great chance for price to change a trend. See how it was on 11th candle from the left - volume also was balanced - below indi shows up and down ticks. And look at right - there you can find other interesting volume info (actually ticks info, but for my convinience I still call it volume). This shows how many series of consistent up or down tick movements were in current H1 candle. As you can see - now it is a balance, almost 50/50. So a nice signal for possible reversal in price direction to down. It's also japanese candlestick analysis which shows a possible reversal, but with ticks volume it's easier to understand and use in EAs. Hope my point is clear on this. So anyone interested in TRIN or other indis, are greatly welcomed to comment or to help to advance in this. Guys, I found this picture on tsd forum in a thread "Show me smth interesting" with lots of pics and indis". This pic was there under the name "Mopst wanted indi.gif" so I haven't found this indi there and I don't have it, but I would want to. Cheers! Starting

Re: Breadth Internal Indicators nice video, focused on stocks mainly, but also good for FX trader. I'm wondering if we can apply some of indis they proved to be good for determining "market breath" for FX. I'm interesting in trial of indi called TRIN, which formula is: (number of advancing stocks/number of declining stocks) / (volume of advancing stocks/volume of declining stocks). Practical use is that when TRIN is < 1, then market is bullish. That means volume confirms advancing stocks. On the other hand, if TRIN is > 1 the market is bearish. I was thinking how can we apply this to FX trading. My first idea was to create a cluster indicator for major currencies, which would show us if majority of currencies tend to advance or to decline. Don't know practical use of this, but this is just idea. Another more close to mother earth idea arisen in my head is to plot TRIN just for one currency, when we calculate number of candles and treat every candle as a stock. So we calculate how many candles were going up, how many of them went down for a definite period of time. Then we would apply volumes as per the formula, so we could be confirmed by TRIN if price movement is really well confirmed by volume or not, in the same way we could determine at which market we're now - bearish or bullish. Particular interest was for me a pattern which they plotted as a 5 day and 10 day TRIN, together with 50 period MA, with 2 x 20% and 30% envelopes ( total 4 envelopes) around 50period MA. Guys, who are advanced in programming, can you look if you can create TRIN indicator based on following: - adjustable period (i.e. number of candles our indi considers); - calculate how many candles were declining (started with higher price and closed with lower price) and how many of them were advancing (price started lower and closed higher); - calculate what is cumulative volume of declining candles and what is the cumulative volume of advancing candles; - plot the graphical line which is a value of the following formula = (Number of advancing candles within our adjustable period / Number of declining candles within our adjustable period ) / (Cumulative volume of advancing candles / Cumulative volume of declining candles). http://i017.radikal.ru/0909/50/97b11ade897f.gif Would be much appreciated for help, or, if even such indi already exists, for the link to it. Found this on forum.mql: Can somebody advice if this is correct also for ECN brokers? I still think if the volume in MT4 means just a number of ticks going up and down withing the same candle, we still can think how to interpreter and use this. Regards, Starting

Re: Trade like a Pit Bull Guys, have you tried your passes with files from the first post? I tried and all passes here in this thread are unfortunately not working.

Re: Trade like a Pit Bull Mate, pass is not working :o

Re: Forex4you I've being trading with them few months and I think they are not in their best shape. They shut down servers during news time, connection to servers is not stable and often gets broken, their technical support doesn't answer on claims. In principle, only cent account with small deposit can be of use to test new strategy. Currently no serious work is possible with them.

Re: U.S. regulated Forex Dealer Members fx1001, Can you explain how quoted below comes from this new regulation I posted very below: Couldn't figure out myself, maybe English speaking friends can help. Part 2 - RULES GOVERNING THE BUSINESS CONDUCT OF MEMBERS REGISTERED WITH THE COMMISSION * * * RULE 2-43. FOREX ORDERS. (a) Price Adjustments (1) A Forex Dealer Member may not cancel an executed customer order or adjust a customer account in a manner that would have the direct or indirect effect of changing the price of an executed order except when: (i) the cancellation or adjustment is favorable to the customer and is done as part of a settlement of a customer complaint; or (ii) if a Forex Dealer Member's platform exclusively uses straight-through processing such that the Forex Dealer Member automatically (without human intervention and without exception) enters into the identical but opposite transaction with another counterparty (creating an offsetting position in its own name) and that counterparty cancels or adjusts the price at which the position was executed. (2) With regard to cancellations or adjustments made pursuant to section (a)(1)(ii), a Forex Dealer Member must: (i) provide written notification to the customer within fifteen (15) minutes of the customer order having been executed that it is seeking to cancel the executed order or adjust the customer's account to reflect the adjusted price provided by the Forex Dealer Member's counterparty, as applicable, and the written notification must include documentation of the cancellation or adjustment from the Forex Dealer Member's counterparty; and (ii) either cancel or adjust all executed customer orders executed during the same time period and in the same currency pair or option regardless of whether they were buy or sell orders. (3) Notwithstanding section (a)(2)(ii), a Forex Dealer Member may choose to honor transactions in which customer orders resulted in profits for the customers but must do so with regard to all similarly situated customers. (4) Cancellations and adjustments to executed customer orders must be reviewed and approved by a listed principal that is also an NFA Associate. Such review and approval must be documented by a written record, must include any supporting documentation, and must be provided to NFA in the manner requested by NFA. (5) A customer order is considered executed upon the earlier of the customer receiving notification of the execution price from the Forex Dealer Member or when the position established by such order is identified in the customer's account, whether electronically or otherwise. (6) If a Forex Dealer Member may cancel or adjust an executed order under the circumstances provided for in section (a)(1)(ii), the FDM must provide customers with written notice that the Forex Dealer Member may cancel or adjust executed customer orders based upon liquidity provider price changes prior to the time they first engage in forex transactions with the Forex Dealer Member. The notice may be included in a customer agreement. (7) Any provision in a customer agreement or any contract between a Forex Dealer Member and a customer that reserves to the Forex Dealer Member the right to make price or equity adjustments to a customer account except as allowed by this Rule is prohibited. (b) Offsetting Transactions Forex Dealer Members may not carry offsetting positions in a customer account but must offset them on a first-in, first-out basis. At the customer's request, an FDM may offset same-size transactions even if there are older transactions of a different size but must offset the transaction against the oldest transaction of that size.
