I never understood what it actually meant when someone said that you shouldn't go for indicators which repaint. However, I read something on the blog here: http://www.makemesomemoney.co.uk/2011/07/15/careful-of-indicators-in-metatrader-which-repaint/ which explained it. Can we generate a list of all the indicators and systems which fall under this category as they will be systems which will not work. Thanks

This used to be a paid for magazine but now completely subsidised through adverts I think it's an excellent magazine and now you can get it free www.traders-mag.com If anyone can get hold of the PDF CDs that would be awesome

Re: What's your strategy for coping with big losses? I always set a stoploss so my mind is already prepared to deal with it if it hits. I only tend to daytrade so I've never had a gap up or down which then resulted in a higher than expected loss. If that did happen though, you have to be careful not to 'revenge trade' and get your money back.. the ultimately leads to further losses!
