Oh dear, 666 people are following on MySpace - btw, myspace is not dead, apparently. I wonder if this is not a bad omen of some kind.

order buy 2.98 USDCADmicro opening at market sl: 0.00000 tp: 0.00000 failed [Market is closed]

market was not closed. Anyone else experienced strange things like this with XM.com?

The F$%K-IT point.

I wish I could reach it faster, especially when trading forex. It could save me some stress.

Trends are changing?!

I had no trades for today… none. Looks to me like the trends are changing for all the pairs I’m trading. So I’ll just wait and see, I don’t want to risk picking up tops or bottoms.

Lovely song

Two boxes met upon the road.
Said one unto the other,
“If you’re a box,
And I’m a box,
Then you must be my brother.
Our sides are thin,
We’re cavin’ in,
And we must get no thinner.”
And so two boxes, hand in hand,
Went home to have their dinner.

by Shel Silverstein - you got to love the simplicity of his style.

Friday didn’t close so well. A few trades remained opened and the AU basket still didn’t close. Not to good, but not so bad to destroy my weekend.

Have a nice weekend, everyone.

How to Calculate a Stop Loss using Excel

I found a video entitled like this on Youtube. Dude, seriously?!

This is why many traders fail, because they have been taught that their trades must have fixed SL, TP etc. The markets are much more fluid than you think. You cannot ‘predict’ the stoploss or the takeprofit no matter how many calculations you make. You can, at most, estimate them… which case you do not really need so many calculations. Better focus your time and mental energy on something else.

I’ve managed to watch 30′ of that video, BTW.

With the 10% discount from the discount page and the 25$ bonus from Payoneer, this EA becomes almost free. Well, less than 10$, anyway.

Now this is how to manage a losing trade so it will always be in profit. And this is exactly what the RobotFX Fluid EA does.

Those 95% losers in the forex game are losing mostly because they do not know how to manage a losing trade and they either use a stoploss or wait and hope until it is to late.

In this picture I entered long on EU at the wrong moment. The price dropped soon after. Instead of panicking and closing the trade, I opened a short, double the size of the long. This way I was covered if the price would have dropped further. The price dropped indeed, triggering the BE for the sell, but then rised again, closing the sell at BE profit (1 pip).

Even better, it continued with the original trend, so eventually the long trade close in profit, too (28 pips). And so, one losing trade became 2 winning trades. Only thanks to the RobotFX Fluid EA.

Looks my idea to change from renko to candlesticks was not so inspired after all. USDJPY didn’t drop further and decided to consolidate a little, eventually hitting my breakeven.

It could have been +70 pips on the renko chart.

Oh, well. At least I ended up with +1 pip and not -1.

USDJPYmicro

Finally price dropped and BE triggered, so I think I’ll let this run on the candlestick chart. I’ve only used the renko to optimize the entry… hopefully I’ll manage to optimize the exit, too.

I’ve been waiting for a while for this to drop, but seems like it started to consolidate. Hopefully the trend won’t change.

I have a few blogs that are keep getting locked from Blogger. Not that I break any of Google’s rules, just because Google doesn’t want to pay someone (read: “real people”) to check these blogs and relies only on bots.

So I keep appealing this but nothing happens. In the end, probably thinking that I’ll forget about the eventually and never appeal again (which will lead to automatic deletion), Blogger increase the appeal time to 3 months (from 20 days).

And this is how they they solved my issue. Now all they have to do is wait for me to forget about these blogs :)

Google sucks!

Payoneer brags to offer 25$ to the new customers registering from a referrer link. I don’t know how real this is because I’m new to Payoneer, but if you are interested, use my link - this way to both earn 25$

A friend of mine is asking me about the 

the winning percentage of this EA. I would like to make 2 statements, both of them equally important for saving your money.

1. Trading is an individual skill. What works for some traders may not work for others. That is why you see so many trading strategies on forex sites like FF and so many arguing discussions about their results.

2. If someone/anyone is trying to sell you a certain forex product and guarantees for a precise winning percentage or amount of money (earnings), turn around and run away. It is most likely a scam.

That should be one of the best example about why people are losing in forex: overthinking and imagining things. Some dude on InstaForex is advising traders to look for buy, despite the obvious downtrend that we have and the nice channel that he-himself drew. Now, let’s analyze this a little:

1. The broker says BUY - at this point you don’t even need to analyze, just do the opposite: SELL  :)

2. We have a downtrend - I suppose we should sell, right?! (rhetoric question)

3. See the down channel? Price is on top, you should sell, right?! (rhetoric again)

4. See the higher-low formed?! Means you should sell.

5. RSI overbought = sell.

6. Why wonder “what if” and wait for the head-n-shoulders that might never happen? You have a sell signal NOW.

Even if the price moved up, and the trend changes - as this guy is trying to make you think - it would mean that he wants you to pick the bottom of this downtrend, which is a dangerous thing as you probably know. Further more, IF the price goes up and this “analyst” proves to be right (by pure luck ‘cause everything he says makes no sense whatsoever) you can wait for the second higher-low to form to enter long, after you will be sure that the trend, indeed, changed and the price is rising.

PayPal Secrets & PayPal Information You Didn't Know!

In the end, the only way to fix our paypal ‘issue’ was to get rid of paypal and move on to another online payments provider. I’ve re-sent them the bank statement so they can finally unlock my account, but still nothing… silence.

I bet that they have a nice email filter set only for me that sends all the messages I send them straight into the trash can. As I stated in another post, they became to big to care.

Screw paypal!

Come on, Paypal, stop sucking and check my account issues. Or are you to big to care anymore?! Forgot your first business days when you were luring new customers with 20$ gifts?!

FYI, Paypal locked my account exactly after I reported a phishing site. That was the “reward”. Never I will try to help again an ungrateful bastard.

Says Dwolla, completely ignoring the fact that they ARE the middlemen. Such a bunch of retards.

BTW, they are supposed to be some kind of Paypal, Skrill etc.

The nerve of some people!!!

If they want to advertise their products on my videos pages, they should at least write a few good words about my video first, right? :)
