how's it going? I'm still busy with school 3 classes to go!! I'll be done on or about June. I may continue for an MBA. Also, check out the pennant on eur/jpy. If it plays out, my longs are going to be very nice. Still hanging on to them.
i never use it either...i was just bored and noticed everyone was thinking short...and i was thinking otherwise.
Second post down:

Don't care about them...all I care about is i'm 2.5full lots long eur/jpy from this morning. lol great day. about time to TP I believe. You can find my reasoning at the "EUR/JPY Anytime!!" threat at FF under the user name guitarjrb. Was quite a genius call but nobody acknowledges good analysis, so i'll just not post it anymore. lol
That goes beyond moderating. Do you have the original post? I'd be curious to see how much they "edited" it. I don't think i'd post there anymore. lol
TDAmeritrade just gave me free access to the ThinkOrSwim platform in my Apex account. I haven't tried it yet, but I think one can trade stocks, options, forex, futures, etc. all in one platform. Anyone tried think or swim before? I assume its probably available to IRA folks as well. I'm not sure what the leverage is though.
Hola, como esta?
Taxes:
Anyone know the potential fall backs/benefits of treating forex under section 1256 as ordinary income or loss?
xau has been my fine friend here lately...i've been scalping the heck out of it. I switched to scalping long positions this morning which turned out to be a wise decision...at least for the moment. I'm holding some longs now just to see where its going to go
I attempted to short gold at 1125 in which i received "common error"(about 30 times) on my platform. Contacted support who said that some people are having problems placing orders. I was just able to log back in...after about an hour of course, now 1118.65 is golds quote. So basically, I got jacked out of 640+ pips...pisses me off! Done for the day.
trying to short gold on the rally....my broker is BROKE...can't make any trades nor connect. forex.com that is.
Still going my friend....

I shorted xau at 1210 and closed it at 1198.60. Ignorant decision on my part!
........................
I hope it comes on down cause I have a very large position....we'll see later! Have a good evening and nice trade!
i got my stop up at .60...lightly hanging in there for the moment.
I haven't traded silver or gold for a while...Just thought I'd try to join the usd train from overnight. I'm probably joining at the last stop on the trip though!
I added an xag short on the current spike up....
Improved the drawdown to 1.15% and 89.38% of trades are winners. I just started it on a live account for testing purposes.
6 pip tp...small trades, none of the exponential money management that you see in most "holy grails" that are complete failures. The results I posted were the same size lot through out the whole test. Good stuff. I just reduced the draw down to 1.7% still playing with the settings to find the optimal ones.
Haven't seen the gold chart yet, i'll take a look. I just posted a screenshot of some of the backtest trades...makes quite a bit of activity. I'm feeling confident in this strategy. What made me think of it is the movie "Office Space"....if you haven't seen it, watch it and you'll understand the strategy behind the EA.
Check my latest development that I posted about on tfxh this morning.
Actually ataglance is in control of tfxh now. I have done nothing but provide hosting. hehe I haven't been trading much cause i'm busy in school.
I've got something for you Don. Email me at tfxh email address.
i just pm'ed you at the other side
Pure TA. I trade silver using bollinger bands(21/2), supports, resistances and trend lines 4hr and daily charts only. In fact I have a limit short order sitting and waiting at 18.00 right now, which is a decent resistance point.
I still trade gold and silver. I stay on the silver side more often though.
zip on the flash skills. I was refering to tfxh when I was talking about wiping clean...
park away...if you need a fresh install of the phpbb software, let me know cause I can wipe it and reinstall the basic phpbb in about 5 minutes. You can do whatever you want with it from there....let me know. Ohh...and I got back with you, I sent you a pm on your board with all the info.
I have developed a bad @ss EA I believe....currently testing and i'll try to start live testing next week.

Embedding I can do, host I can not. Basically the video would have to be hosted elsewhere and embedded in a post or something. I can't figure out what would be the best solution for a site. I'll figure it out eventually. Right now I'm busy, so i'll come back to it after thinking for a while. Check out gold!
I don't see the capability to upload videos. You should be able to add youtube videos though. I don't think I want to "host" videos, but youtube would be fine.
It looks like you already posted on the blog. Or are you referring to the forum that I haven't really set up yet?
It's right here!
Got your glasses on?

It'll be whatever you want it too be. Make the call boss!
Looks good to me. I'm still holding my silver shorts and earning interest.
Sure...hehe.
This volatility in the DOW is dangerous. To me, it suggests a strong failure below 10k...I still stick to my thoughts of a pretty strong pullback(in which i'll dump my 401k back into the market)
Not so nice job anymore! I came back to the station to find red again. wtf?
