  2. Hi, We are doing a university job where we must investigate how banks manage their financial products that require trading, for example, they offer a fund, as they manage capital internally. Could you help me? Thank you!
  3. Hello everyone! I am an advanced trader, with many years of experience (about 15 years - 10 living exclusively from this) I am going to give you some tips that you must know: There are going to be many people who tell you that trade is easy, that with only crossiing a line with another one you will win a lot of money.... and that´s not true. No, Sir, reality is far away from that. Many people who start arrive here with the hope that someone "gives them" a free method, they watch youtube videos thinking that this will give them the "strategy" and in a few days they realize that it does not work for them - they lose money - and then They go looking for a new one ... and so on. YES, IT´S TRUE YOU EARN IN TRADING, A LOT. BUT THINK: for a few to win (10% + any BROKER) many others must lose (90% people). YOU MUST HAVE A MONEY MANAGMENT FORMULA ( you can email me) People study so many years to live on this, not because they are dumb, but to know what they do, when, and have absolute effectiveness. It´s very easy to get lost here: do not disperse, jumping from one to another strategy WILL NEVER give you money, it will only waste your time and make you nervous when trading. PEOPLE WHO CHANGE THEIR METHOD CONSTANTLY : LOOOOSE ALWAYS. If you have the knowledge to develop it, take your time and do it. Always try it first on DEMO for at least 2 weeks! If not: search to buy a solid strategy (no you tube videos pleassse ! Avoid losing money! ) This is like any business, it requires some capital to start (capital = money in the broker + solid made /purchased strategy) If you are lost: I RECOMMEND YOU NOT TO WASTE TIME IN YOUTUBE, JOIN PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCE AND IF YOU ARE GOING TO BUY A METHOD ... PLEASE !!!! DO NOT BUY 10 BAD AND CHEAP METHODS, SAVE MONEY AND BUY ONLY 1 BUT EXCLUSIVE AND MUST ALLWAYS HAVE SUPPORT !!!!! Do not buy Signals! They never keep up with constant profits! One week will win and the next will lose. Nothing that does not depend absolutely on you will give you the money you are looking for. And if you do not have a strategy (made or purchased) do not even try PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE: DO NOT USE REAL MONEY! AT LEAST 2 WEEK DEMO FREE HELP HERE!!!!! IF YOU FOLLOW MY ADVICE YOU WILL BE PART OF THAT 10% WINNER, email me. Have a nice trading day
  4. So I've been 18 for about 4 months, since I turned 18 I started up an account, and basically thought I was doing amazing because of beginners luck, put in some of my savings and managed to do well, some days I would make £200, one day I even made £900, after time I lost my profits and made a loss as well. I've realised I need to spend the time analysing the market and making technical judgments. I'm trying to read more and spend a lot of my time looking at the charts. is there any advice people can give me. and is making 5% a week a realistic goal to set myself? before anyone assumes that im looking for a get rich quick scheme, im certainly not, I see every loss ive made as a lesson and ensure that I learn from each mistake I make. any advice about indicators, strategies, how to analyse the market, or even analysing earning reports would help me.
  5. Does it mean that you are an expert just because you make a lot of profit? The amount of profit cannot be used to measure the value of a trader. Yes, you must be doing something right if you are making a frequent profit. However, that does not determine if you are an expert or not just by your profit. This is quite a common misunderstanding in the forex industry. Making a large profit is only one side of the forex market. Majority of forex traders tend to lose most of the time after they have experienced profit. But why? So many traders fall into a fantasy land where they make an endless amount of money at the beginning. Many beginner traders tend to gain profit at the start not knowing the importance of technical analysis of the market. The experts on the other hand who stayed became wealthy and stayed that way, continue gaining profit, are all knowledgeable when it comes to the basics. Experts have dialed many ways to control their minds to be set right to be a trader. Understanding of the market is a must know anyway. Expert traders wait patiently until the right opportunity comes. Opportunity comes to everyone. What differentiates the experts and the beginners is that experts know when the opportunity has come and knows to take advantage of it. Making profit by luck is possible, and yes luck is also very important. But can you profit with luck every time? How an expert trader is determined is not by how much the person gained, it’s about the precision and the frequency of results. Profit can’t be maintained by luck. It is maintained and is a result of precision and strategical execution. You shouldn’t worry because you’re not gaining any profit right now. You should be building your skill sets to be a better trader by experiencing many trading situations of losses and wins. If you invest in your time to improve, your results are guaranteed to increase more frequently and will become more stable.
  6. OEC Trader is now called Gain Trader and the Gain API now allows you to have simultaneous connection to mobile and web. Thanks, Matt Z Optimus Futures www.optimusfutures.com There is a substantial risk of loss in futures trading. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

  8. EURUSD: The pair looks to weaken further as it holds on to its downside pressure. On the upside, resistance comes in at 1.1600 level with a cut through here opening the door for more upside towards the 1.1650 level. Further up, resistance lies at the 1.1700 level where a break will expose the 1.1750 level. Conversely, support lies at the 1.1500 level where a violation will aim at the 1.1450 level. A break of here will aim at the 1.1400 level. Below here will open the door for more weakness towards the 1.1350. All in all, EURUSD faces further downside pressure
  9. I want to learn about it as I am quite confused of which would be better. Please help!

  12. I am new to the world of bitcoins and cryptocurrency and this question hit my mind recently. Bitcoins are gaining popularity at a faster pace but will anybody make it clear to me that who decides the price of these bitcoins?
  13. One of the most important reasons why traders take big losses is because they often fail to recognize when a trade has gone wrong. You see, stopping out of a trade is probably the biggest fault of traders and investors. Often, this happens to young and inexperienced traders and investors, but I know many veteran traders and investors that struggle with this as well. Early in my own career I struggled with stopping out of a bad trade myself, so I can sympathize with this problem. The problem with taking a loss is really two fold. First, the trader has to admit that he is wrong. As you all know, as human beings we all hate to be wrong. The ego simply gets in the way and we all want to always be right all the time. The first secret in this business is to check the ego at the door. The market does not care about your the color of your skin, religion or anything else. It will move in the direction of the money and that is the bottom line. Once a trader or investor goes into what I call 'hope mode' the trade is over. I'm sure everyone has been in this position at one time or another. Simply put there is no room for ego or hope in the stock market. The market is always right and there is no reason to fight it. Here is the second problem with taking a loss, it hurts. Pain and pleasure are the two reasons why humans do anything at all. As a human being, we are always looking to have pleasure and avoid pain. Well, losing money is painful and many people would rather simply hold a losing equity than lock in a small loss and move on. I cannot tell you how often I see a trader hold a losing trade only to see the position move further out of the money. Many years ago I watched a day trader blow up a $200,000 account in a single day averaging in on a bad day trade. To this day I can remember the look on his face as his money vanished in thin air. Believe it or not, this trader could have exited the position with a $500.00 loss, but instead he kept averaging in and fighting the position until he was wiped out. As a rule, once you have your full position you should never average in on a trade. At that point, it is critical to know where your max loss is going to be and stop out if that level is breached.Now when should we stop out? The answer to this question is not that simple, but here is what I personally do. I always place my stop loss below an important breakout or pivot on the chart. You see, prior breakout or pivot levels are usually defended when retested. After all, this is usually an area where institutional traders and investors got involved, that is why there is a pivot low or high on the chart to begin with. If that level is breached on a closing basis then I will move out of the position. So If I took a trade based on a daily chart pattern then I will usually check the daily and weekly chart levels. If there is a major pivot on the weekly chart then I will use a week chart close as my stop out level. While this method may not be perfect, it has saved me from much bigger losses when I have been wrong. Nicholas Santiago
  14. I have been learning binary options and crypto trading for a little bit now. Its difficult to find a strategy that works best for me because there is a endless amount of them. What is the way that you found the strategy that worked for you or fit your trading style?? I have been trying alot of different ones but cant seem to find one that benefits me and its the most frustrating thing.

  17. Anyone interested to join day traders chat room? Join here http://www.daytraders.chat/
  18. Hi everybody, I am in little confusion with Tradorax, in actually I want to start trading so I was looking for the good trading websites which can assist me in testing strategies, creating expert advisors or indicators. So, I have found Tradorax easier for me but after doing some research there were some bad reviews and good reviews about Tradorax. It makes me little worried about starting with them but positive reviews are attracting me too. So, Please guys suggest me some good advise and also tell me if you have any personal experience with Tradorax.
  19. Hi everybody, I'm relatively new on the trading online world and I would like to have a suggestion regarding the trading platform to use. I prevalently use Interactive Brokers but I also own other accounts and I would like to use all of them with a single software, instead of learning how to use several different platforms for every broker I trade with. Does anybody know a trading platform which is able to use data for more than one broker? And which is the best in your opinion?
  20. Hi All, As a former City trader, experience has taught me...there is always something new to learn. I have been thinking of a way to cut a little bit of the learning curve required for folks to trade successfully.. I know demo accounts exist, but as we all know, live markets are, often, about long periods of tedium interspersed with bouts of mania!! Not necessarily, the most action packed way to learn quickly. So I formed a company which built a trading simulator for anyone who has an interest in how Market-makers (emulate them!!! they generally don't lose money)used to go about their business before algos dominated the world( although there is some algo stuff going on in the simulator)...its also supposed to introduce a little bit of fun into what can be a seriously stressful business.
  21. Ultimately what we are trading, are numbers. Numbers are relative, what does a number mean to you? Does it mean buying a new luxury vehicle? A high dollar timepiece? Or does it mean, making a living on your own, without some jerk boss lording them self over your life? So when we look at our profits and losses while are we holding onto that trade, what sentiments come to mind? This is a "Put your money on the table, take your money off the table market" now, cut your losses at 7% Unfortunately we are or have been at one time, self programmed into the adrenaline rush of entering a trade, whether we lose or gain, we scour through forums (such as this one) to look for added incentive to keep the position, or take one. But ultimately what do the numbers say? No, not what one armchair economist thinks, im talking about what makes sense. A fellow I know, lost 50k in one trade a few years ago, why was this? Doubtless he kept up the incantation "its going to go back up". When in reality ,he should have cut his losses at the 7% line. When we see positive numbers on our trades, take them. Don't get married to your trade. The trade doesn't care about you nor your feelings, you have to be detached to make money trading. http://www.QDRV.com
  22. Good morning everyone I saw a pairs trading webinar on the topic and found this code. I can not understand these two pieces of code, anyone is kind enough to explain % The strategy: % 1 Compute residuals over next N days res = series2 (i: i + N-1, 1) ... - (Reg1.coeff (1) + reg1.coeff (2). * Series2 (i: i + N-1, 2)); % 2 If the residuals are large and positive, then the first series % Is Likely to decline vs. the second series. Short the first % Series by a scaled number of shares and long the second series by 1% share. If the residuals are large and negative, do the % Opposite. indicated (i: i + N-1) = res / reg1.RMSE; s (i: i + N-1, 2) = (res / reg1.RMSE> spread) ... - (Res / reg1.RMSE <-spread); s (i: i + N-1, 1) = -reg1.coeff (2). * s (i: i + N-1, 2); end end Thank you very much for your cooperation ps do you know where I can find some code on the pairs trading?
  23. What GoPro Has Done Right Now that the stock has surpassed the 90 mark, the owner has a worth of over 5bn (still holding 48% of the company after IPO). It raises the question as to what has Gopro done right? 1. Actually SELL something. (I’m looking at you Facebook) I’m not saying that you need to sell something physical, but when it comes down to it, people have faith in companies that actually do something. 2. Life is a popularity contest. I’ll quote Jesse Jones on this one “What other company do you own the product you trade?” (Forgive me if the quote is off Jesse). Simply put, Gopro is in people’s faces day after day. Every time you go on YouTube, there will be a new video up, and many people, including myself, own one. They aren't just selling an idea; they are selling a physical product attached to an idea. Business side: What have they done right? A few key points here you will see effect the stock in the coming months. 1. Their launch date was chosen to perfection. 2. Mid October they are slated to launch a new camera. This will be perfect timing if the stock does falter, breathing new life into the company. They will be on the front page with this move. Not only will it help their stock (assuming they don’t have a bendable camera #bendgate), but they will reap the rewards of the increased media attention from their successful IPO. Free advertising. 3. Here is the big one. Their lockup expiration is 12/23/2014. Christmas Eve. The last point is what I will end on. They have crucially chosen a time to allow for their 180 day lockup period to end on Christmas Eve… This goes in the best form of announcing any kind of bad news late on Friday to let the market forget about it over the weekend. How do you prevent a sell off of company stocks post lockup period? Provide the sellers with one of the quietest times of the year in the stock market. Well played Gopro. A bit about me: I'm a Futures and Forex trader who has been personally trading for years. I find all aspects of trading interesting, and on occasion, like this one, I even write articles on the stock market. Trader psychology has facinated me since the first time I moved from a paper trading to real live trading. The difference sparked an interest that I write about today.
  24. Today, We would be going back to the basics and understanding " How Forex works ?'' As you may know any other market demand and supply determine the price of an asset, in this case the asset is the exchange rate between one currency and another currency. Exchange-rate Regime This is valid for a currency regime with free floating rates. The other two main exchange rate regimes are: - the so called pegged float and - the fixed rate regime Currencies such as the Chinese Yuan are not floating freely as they are allowed only to trade within a limited range around a certain price level (pegged float). It is almost impossible to make money trading a currency like the Yuan which can only be traded in a fixed corridor. Other currencies are fixed completely to the value of another currency and are not tradable independently. Four Main Fundamental Factors If you trade the highly liquid major currency pairs which are available to trade via the Forexchampionship you need to be aware of the fundamental factors which influence the exchange rate between two currencies. The four main factors are: -Inflation -Monetary policy -Economic growth -Interest rates These factors are linked and influence each other. Furthermore the creditworthiness of a country and its status as a reserve currency play an important role. These are the most important fundamental factors which can influence a currency but certainly this list is not “complete”. Other Factors As we have seen lately with the tensions between Russia and Ukraine – geopolitical events can influence currency prices. The immediate reaction of the market after the events in Ukraine over the weekend was to buy the US dollar and the Japanese yen. The USD is still the world’s reserve currency No.1 and the yen is the favorite funding currency in the carry trade. In times of crisis investors seek the “safe haven” of the US dollar and carry trades get unwinded as they are considered risky. Conclusion If you are aware of what’s driving a specific currency fundamentally and if you manage to combine this knowledge with technical analysis you have a good chance to succeed in currency trading.
  25. Are there any regulated binaries brokers out there?? (that aren’t from Cyprus). I'm not much of a forum person but this question has been bugging me. I definitely feel like I'm being ripped off if I'm putting money into overseas accounts. I've been trading Forex and metals for years but I'm interested in binaries now. Are there any New Zealand or Australian ones?
