  1. Re: Forex Bling-Exclusive Report pdf ForexHope EA

     

    Fun thing: it's very likely they keep an eye on this forum, they fixed the magic bug that was mentioned here :)

     

    Is it possible that they releasing new versions which looses to fool non registered users ? I have a strange suspicion that older version of Fractals worked better for me (could be just different time period). Anybody still testing v907 or v908 ?

  2. Re: Hedge Trading #1 - EUR & CHF

     

    Both of you, matka and birt, want to prove to me that trading EURUSD/USDCHF is actually like trading EURCHF. It's not necessary. Yes, that's true, I understand that, quite simple, no problem.

    But a temporary off-hedge situation at trading two correlated pairs draws less down than a breakout to the totally opposite direction on a single pair. That's why I feel hedge-trading safer, smoother. Is it a false sense of safety?

     

    Don please do not feel offended. It wasn't my intention. I am sorry. I am not trying to prove anything, I am just trying to share my experience. Of course you can benefit from very short time differences/bearkouts but it is totally different story, not necessary correlated to hedge strategy ;-)

     

    btw, do you know the name of the indicator I asked about ?

     

    The positions can be opened by an EA with only 1-2 ticks difference. And since these pairs are never perfectly correlated, it's not a big problem if the two opened positions are slipping a bit here and there, I guess.

     

    yes, I think you are right

    One last thing: when hedge trading like this, you're aware that it's exactly the same as trading EURCHF, right? The only difference is that you have a higher spread and a bit higher swap to pay.

     

    By trading one pair only you can also avoid differences in time of opening/closing trades because of requotes and time of tick differences (I don't know how to put the last one properly.. hope you'll understand) :">

     

    Starting, Don, if you have doubts about Birt's statement do simple test. Open two trades on majors (with proper lots calculation) and one on EURCHF and monitor/log profit/loss for some time.

     

    And one more thing.. trading doesn't mean analysing. EURUSD & USDCHF creates EURCHF not vice versa ;)

     

    BTW can you please point me to the indicator which puts two pairs on the chart, both as candles ?

    Thanks! Nice thread with 180 pages )

     

    Btw, guys, have any of you ever tried to forward test this strategy, any "demo" wins / losses already?

     

    Use ff attachment feature on the right top of the first post, grab latest files and you should be fine ;) EA needs some improvement but can be profitable as long as EURCHF stays flat.

  5. Re: Is it safe to trade Forex for Living ?

     

    Because my fear, if someday only big dogs and institutional are allowed to trade forex, so how about us the retail traders who already leave daily job and just depend our income on Forex ?

     

    I think it won't happen. But it would be a good idea to invest time and efforts not only in forex, just in case :-)
