& like I was tellin ya a few days ago....
it's a very good thing that ya like competition cuz as I was tellin ya a few days ago....you'll find that u have TONZ of competition out there.
& note that it may be a new venture for the CompassFX (actually I think they've simply re-worked a former thing they've already had goin that's quite similar...just improving upon it is all...but not sure, I could be thinking about another outfit?) however once you do some more research on this idea, as I was sayin earlier, you will find that you & Compass are not the only one's out there...in fact this niche has grown tremendously over the past few yrs.
Perhaps that's what u r in the process of doin now....checkin out the competition....I think that's you best bet right now...this way you'll have an idea as to what u r up against & thus be able to brainstorm with the knowledge of what's already out there & what ya could improve upon.
Do keep us posted....& once again....GL w/the venture!!
Cheers!!

Worn Buffet , as always your thoughts are once again appreciated...Im finally back now...a little tired but back....There is no need to worry about forex traders needing to figure out what board to go to...One of the things that Ive been doing this week is getting ready to start a new site...a site where we can all see eachothers demo/real accounts traded and annotated on a real brokerage charting platform...Stay tuned my friend...This forex site is going to take these internet stock forums over...coming really soon...
Shoulda held the cable short awhile longer......
back to the Fast Money replay....missed the 1st run @ 2p.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=31950224
Actually Worn..it just went down with the other pairs...trying to bounce a bit now...I said TRYING!...notice the USD/JPY...Flusshhhhh...down the toilet she still goes with 5 minute bids still dropping...Kathy Lien in an interview I just watched is looking for non farm payrolls to drop at least 100K so the market may be building that in as we sit and guess...If so then EUR/USD might get a bit of relief from the shorts...JMO of course.USD/JPY is taking a hell of a beating!
Kinda thot there were some lurkin eye's upon me...hehe
I'm out da door....but the euro sure took a dump the last few mins...wut up w/dat?
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=31943763
I fully understand abou the board thing Worn and it really is not good for our small but growing community to be scattered about...also with RE to the comments about Ryno's success on Cable..I have been as always keeping up with your board which BTW is and always has been excellent...so I am familiar with all his posts and have been horsing around with it a bit myself with GBP/USD...been eavesdropping on you to Worn(LOL)..One thing I dont know is what is ElGato..The Cat doing these days?
Good deal Simple....
W/re to the cable...Ryno over at the other board clued us in the other day to a fairly regular trend on this pair...been occurin like clockwork ('cept for last night of course..jus took a few hrs longer to set up is all)...goin short the cable as early as 10:30p pst up until approx 1:30a pst.....then the next few hrs thereafter the trade matures.
Today however it didn't break lower until jus a few hrs ago at approx 6:30a pst....got as low as 1.7625-30 & since has retraced to the north to 1.7715...not a bad trade even after the retrace.
Ryno says he's been takin this trade to the bank the last few weeks...maybe a month or two now.
Anyway....since it seems this board is losin steam after all the initial giddyness...why not take all this over to the other board...of course we can still use your board & the TA board for related matters.....but perhaps jus for everyday genl comments w/re to everything else...fundi's, broader mrkt chat & simply color commentary.....by all means....join us at the 4x board...a real good group over there....Nettles, Ryno, Jester, JT, Ataglance, Daiello, Kermit, Plugger, etc....tho as of late the CaT (Ataglance) has been MIA....but that board does seem 2 b picken up as of late. I just dont want there bein too many 4x boards that need to be checked each day.....prefer goin to one or 2 boards at the most.
My 2 pennies anyways.
& a good day 2 u as well Kimosabe!!
Oh...& here's the link for those who haven't found the board yet....

Howdy Worn...I am back at the grind but just not enough time for posting...I can trade sparingly or post sparingly so naturally I chose the latter!Hope you have had a good day my fiend...I have done quite well with what trades I could make on GBP/USD and USD/JPY....got a little weakness on the dollar today and Yen is rising so it made for good opportunities on both pairs...cable made some surprise runs today IMO.But at those tops I was there with everyone else waiting with a short(LOL)..Simple
What....1st day back from the us holiday & there's no one else here?
Guess every1 took the ol' extra day after a holiday...& of course I'm already oudda vaca days ;)~
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."
Warren Buffet
Up 200+ & now sub 60+.....
wadda mrkt...tho it is beg ta make some sense to me now. That early 200 gain made no sense at all....based on Gustav not bein such the bad boy & oil droppin...so what..things stateside are still bad & they aint lookin like it's gonna be gettin all that much better anytime soon.
Talk about a head fake this AM :0
PS
Gettin a good laugh oudda all the gop spin w/re to Palin....tryin ta make it all sound like it was a "home run" pick by McSame.....as Scarborough was sayin on cnbc a lil while ago...too funny.
Nice call there.....
Fortunately Gustav sure was kind to all,....'cept the long specs of course.
Guess there's no tellin where it'll finally decide ta bottom out...but now it's back in the '07 Q4 channel....near the middle range of it....how low will it go?
As for the US mrkt....I'm still waiting for someone to take the side of the bull here & explain why it's running along w/the greenback?
As for me....I just don't see it based on the fundimentals...however TA wise I guess it's plausable & thus the best explanation. Other than that I guess the fact that Gustav wasn't all too bad is today's reasoning behind the present rally. Even so....still makes no sense to me...the Dow north by 200+.....talk about an oil driven mrkt....guess w/oil down sub 115 it's time ta buy some airline stocks again....YIKES!!!...lol
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

Worn Buffet, if you like to keep up with a lot of other charts outside of forex...I post a lot of stuff on my other board FAnTA$tic DD. Ive been posting about gold for a while now...I updated this ~$GOLD~ on 8/17/08( I havent updated it since...Now I need to move my purple circle to the right)...notice the purple circle on my chart that hasnt been touched...I have been anticipating gold retracing to its 61.8% fibonacci level for weeks now on the Weekly chart(and have been posting that on the many boards that I moderate)...The daily chart also suggests a pull back near term...GL my friend...
Lookin forward to hearin your updates & progress....
& a nice acknowledgement from IHub I see this AM....
"To those on the Gulf Coast, stay safe. Our thoughts are with you, your families and neighbors"
& wadda ya know.....gold has pulled the ol' reverse mojo...fallin like a rock....don't recall anyone anywhere sayin that was gonna be the case...down approx $15 since the open ystrdy.
Like I say....I will never even try trick'n myself into believing I'll ever fully understand the mrkts :0
& you'd think me & da mrkts would be like 2 p's in a pod...after all...I can't rhyme or reason either ;)~
Mr WB,
Sounds good. I have been reading 4x messages and going through the babypips website. My head is spinning from reading. If I stay on this track, I won't be trading anytime soon. It would be much more interesting to try out a system and see if I can make it work. It sounds like the Tunnel Method is a good one to try and master. I saw this post: http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=31771249 and am in the process of digesting it.
So, in short, I am going to try and get my arms around the Tunnel Method. I'll touch base when I start trading it and let you know how it goes.
Thanks,
lisg
Done... IBOX updated...and you are right...the forex traders here should continue to share insights and charting perspectives regardless of what board it is on...There is not that many of us from what I see...It will not hurt any of us to help another out in the forex market...FOREX market is king, IMO...
We lost Boca? Why...did I miss somethin?
Oh well....GL w/that email list....if ya do decide ta go that route....go ahead & add my Ihub box to your list if that's possible. If not, let me know & I'll pass along another box that might work for this purpose.
& if for any reason we find that over time this board falls apart....I say we all meet at the other genl 4x board here on Ihub. Would be nice to simply have 1 4x board goin instead of havin ta check a few different boards. Jus my 2 penny's worth.
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.aspx?board_id=5125
& now there's talk of Gustav possibly reachin a cat 5 worst case....YIKES!!! Here's hopin that both the human & property elements are impacted as lightly as possible.
Cheers!!
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

Yes you do understand now Worn Buffet...And your idea may work as far as letting everyone here see what I am wanting to show...Thanks alot for the idea(LOL...I didnt even consider the emailing list...)Wow all this stress over something so simple...
...I apologize that I am a little impatient...I just want to show people (on a chart) how to work this dollar when it falls...It is still showing superb strength...I learned a long time ago that a horse that $51*'s fast... doesnt $51*long...
...Im still going to set-up a live platform for those that wish to join me... Worn Buffet...the bottom line is that I see alot of talent here at IHUB, and I would like to keep my IHUB connection going, as well as align myself with the powerful traders here...
...I see traders on this site that would tear the forex market up if they would just practice & finally learn how to trade it (force yourself to learn it)...boca bobby is a perfect example...I dont usually hype any one trader but the man is a stockslinger...and weve lost him as mod...
There are many here that I wish to establish an alliance with...whether it be Stocks or Forex...
...I know talent when I see it...whether it be stocks or people...
Have a good day Worn Buffet...
"Even though I am posting my executions real-time, and succeeding, noone is even witnessing it...its just a bunch of words on a screen...A picture is worth a thousand words...but a chart is worth a million words...For example...IMO...the USD is at the very top of an Andrews pitchfork...The dollar is about to retrace...It-is-just-plain-simple-common-charting-sense...

OK....I think I got it....there's some kinda chart (Andrew's Pitchfork?) that the platform here wont let ya post....if this is the case then all ya need to do is put it into email format & tell folks to sign up for an email list that you'd be willing to put together for folks....would this not work or are you not able to put this chart in email format either?
But I will say this...as for your dollar call....I think most chartists are in agreement w/you & additionally, this argument can easilly be made w/any of the other charts that others tend ta use....but w/re to the Andrew's PF....I'm always open to learning more & if there's a way you can figure out how to get it out there for us all to see....sign me up....especialy if it's for free ;)~
I'm truly tryin ta understand what ya wanna accomplish here & in no way mean to come off as giving you a hard time....at least that's not my intention...at least I hope you're not reading me the wrong way here.
Thx again for all that u r tryin ta achieve & teach.
Peace & Cheers!!

Gettin set for the mrkt open & gonna closely watch gold & how it moves in relation to the Gustav track.
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."
Warren Buffet
Here's where I think the problem is 69....
not sure what u r lookin for out of this board?
For yrs now there's been no problems from what I can tell w/how folks are able to communicate here & discuss the charts. As you know, IHub allows folks to put up charts & chat in r/t....so what you wanna do is not all that different. If I read you correctly, all you'd really like ta add perhaps is some VOIP for live chats. If this is the case then this can be accomplished very easily..& on da cheap too as we all know setting up a group voip format is fairly cheap these days....if not free all together. & if not live voip..then maybe an IM format....which I know JRB was tryin ta do a few mos back w/this joint of his that he's pulled down to work on a lil more...it offers live IM's as well as a posting forum w/many 4x related threads....keep checkin back from to time....if he does get it back up....a fairly cool joint w/lotza great resources.
http://thefxhub.com/forum.php
I guess I just don't understand why you can't simply accomplish what you wish to do here? Especially if you're not lookin to charge folks. I guess I'm confused in thinking u r simply tryn ta re-invent the wheel is all....but mo'powa ta ya as I say....I wish ya nothing but the best.
Again...sorry for the lack of comprehension here on my part....but know that I am sincere when I say best of luck to ya in whatever you can pull off.
Cheers!!
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

Thank you for your words Worn Buffet.You have been a great help to me.
I must re-emphasize that I am not asking people to pay me anything for advice or chart accumen.
If I wanted to do that, I could do it quite easily with stocks... Quite frankly, I dont need peoples money. I have my own...What I need is a new platform where I can interact with other Forex traders on an advanced level.I basically am trying to create an IVY league Forex team...And it will only work if we can communicate effectively.
You are the second person that has interpreted my intentions as a way to make money off of other people, so I have to assume that the cause must be in the way that Ive described my intentions...Once again, I want to make money with people...not off people...Im sorry if I didnt make myself clear...Guess I just thought people would figure it out.I mean how can I charge people for visiting my IHUB board? Which was my original plan from the beginning.
Good night Worn Buffet

GL to you Charles....
I guess the best thing you can do for yourself at this point is begin to keep an accurate log of all your trades.....that in & of itself will serve as the best ref for you.....your trading track record.
& then over time w/proven success, you should have no troubles at all in getting folks to pay you for your advice & charting accumen.
GL to you & do keep us posted on your success.

To all PIP'ers,
I am posting less on this board recently because I am trying to put alot of things together...As many of you know, I am a chartist.I express my trading through charting...
I have been trying to get IHUB to let me sync my charting platform to a new board. Im not sure if ihub is ready for that.
The reason I want to sync my charting platform to ihub, is so everyone can see the same things that I am seeing on the charts that I annotate. If this was a stock board, it would be easy. Because I could present a stock and then give a thorough series of multiple intra-day chart annotations to fully express why there may be a potential trade.
Well this board is focused on Forex. Stockcharts.com does not provide intra-day charts for currencies...
Noone here has mentioned anything about the recent trades that I have executed.Some of the trades were awesome, as well as common sense charting.So why isnt anyone commenting on these trades? I'll tell you why , because they cant see them...
Even though I am posting my executions real-time, and succeeding, noone is even witnessing it...its just a bunch of words on a screen...A picture is worth a thousand words...but a chart is worth a million words...For example...IMO...the USD is at the very top of an Andrews pitchfork...The dollar is about to retrace...It-is-just-plain-simple-common-charting-sense... There is absolutely no excuse not to make money off of this obvious pattern...Can I show you this??? No, I cannot show you...not under these conditions...
I feel like my efforts here are fruitless... The people that usually teach are usually not good at doing,because they put so much energy into teaching...I am a DO'er. The only solid way that I can teach is to let people see me DO...I hope that I am explaining myself clearly...
My Forex work has started...and the results have persuaded me to attempt to take it much further...Since I am unable to achieve my Forex desires here, I am in the midst of creating my own website where others will be able to see my forex charts and trades in a real-time setting...already have confirmation that this is possible through an NFA certified forex broker that offers the MT4 charting platform.I will keep this board updated about those developements...I do not know how long this will take to get up and running as Im not experienced in website-developement...
I am extremely serious when it comes to making money...That is what I do...I am at a point in my life where I am willing to share knowledge, trading tactics , and charting secrets...but I will only share my little two cents with those that genuinely
want to learn... its just that simple...I have trading tactics and formulas that noone knows about.How do I know this? Because Ive never publicly shared them...2008 is the first year that I have ever shared anything about my investment techniques...ever...
I havent even started to show people here my option techniques yet...maybe that is what I'll do starting next week...options...
I want to thank all the people that boardmarked the board.I wish all of you great success in all of your trading...We still have a solid board full of intense traders here...I believe that we just need a better way to communicate and interact... Im going to work on that part friends...You all have a great weekend, and please say a prayer for all the families that are being affected by the hurricanes that are coming our way...

Ya jus gotta love N.O.'s Mayor Nagin....lol
"New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin ordered a mandatory evacuation of the city beginning 8 a.m. Sunday but urged residents to consider escaping "the mother of all storms" before then.
"You need to be scared," Nagin said of the Category 4 hurricane tearing along Cuba's western coast. "You need to be concerned, and you need to get your butts moving out of New Orleans right now. This is the storm of the century."
The only thing he forgot ta say was...."BACK UP ALL YOUR OIL & GOLD TRUCKS!!!" :0
Kewl lisg....I'll try & email the contest Admin (Ataglance) to give him a heads up....he does all the approvin...tho the last coupla mos he's pretty much been MIA.
If for some reason he doesn't get ya in in time (he's yet to approve me as well....put my request in 3 days ago) you can simply copy & paste your demo results from your trading log @ Oanda & I'll do the same....no big e.
Welcome aboard....happy ta have another 4x Bro amongst us.

Hello Mr WB,
I like contests and would like to join in. 4x is mostly new to me and TA is too.
Followed the link and setup a demo account on Onada. Looks like they gave me $100k.
If the invitation to join along is still open, can you advise on how I can be added to the Sep. competition?
Thanks,
lisg
You have a good one as well...

OK...gettin ready to bail on my usd/chf short here...both positions now in the green....by 11 & 2 pips respectively....think it may lose a lil steam w/in this channel & bounce around a bit so I sohuld take what the mrkt is given me on a late Fri & run....some nice long holiday wknd walkin 'round $$$ ;)~
& btw....I do go back & edit some of my posts from time ta time....like that last one of mine you replied to..I did add stuff to it after yuor reply. I added some Gustav talk & how gold may react....kinda liken gold here in the 830 range...it's lookin like it wants to trend higher here...tho I think the trouble its' havin right now gettin some legs is that perhaps many of the Gustav speculators dont wanna risk wknd positions & then have Gustav be nothin more than a cat 3.
Still tho...I feel that consdering all the fundi's in the US (or shall I say a serious lack thereof)...like the YoY for July Personal Income bein the worst in 4+ yrs...which in turn has a direct effect on personal spending....this all makes gold a decent buy here.....& if Gustav grows into a cat 4....910-950 by late next week could be a real possibility.
& even if he doesn't become anything more than a cat 3....the fundi's should still support gold trading north of 850 imo.
Read all about it ;)~

swing trade long ~EUR/USD~ @ 1.4663
LOL...I agree with you Worn Buffet...
doublin down on the usd/chf short @ 1.1032....
tryin to get a quick scalp b4 the weekly wrap....watch...it'll blow up in my face & I'll end up bein a wknd bag holder yet again....lol
position 1 @ 1.1023...was up early w/this one & it was lookin good....then it decided to do more head fakin on me....I just don't see much support for a long dollar argument right now. If anyone thinks otherwise...pls tell me why ya feel this way...I'm always open to opposing views....in fact perfer them as I am of the belief that preachin to the choir doesn't do any good....ya know...kinda like the ol "know your friends well & your enemies better" mantra...lol
edit....btw...I think gold may be a good buy down here @ 831....purely based on a Gustav play tho & nuttin else ;)~
If he ends up bein a Cat 4 or higher....831 will look like a great buy in a few days...a Cat 3 or lower & it may not run all that much...in fact it may even sell off as the hardcore speculators bail by early next week...my 2 pennies worth anyways.
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."
Warren Buffet
agreement...everyone is waiting on the dollar to cool off...
yeah....as far as that timeframe goes....priddy close to what I have....Oanda.
Thx!!
I'm gonna go look a lil more into the fundi's & if they are what I'm guessin...I'll go out on a limb here & make a fairly bold call....the dollar will run into some considerable pressure from here on out thru at least the middle of next week....if not longer. Of course if any news to the contrary happens to come out between now & then...all bets are off...but if any supporting news to my call comes out....lookout below.

AP - July incomes drop by largest amount in 3 years
Friday August 29, 9:00 am ET
By Martin Crutsinger, AP Economics Writer
July incomes drop by largest amount in 3 years; consumer spending slowed as rebates tailed off.....
http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/080829/economy.html
What I think we have here this Fri AM is a lil greenback head fake to the north....& bein that itza Fri....it jus may very well last the next few hrs into the US close...also a long wknd in the US.
But come Sun afternoon & into the London Mon AM session....we very well may see some considerable greenback pressure to the south. I feel we're due anyhow for a pullback w/all usd crosses.
Tryin to scale out of all positions over the next few hrs into the close....dont wanna get caught bag holdin over the holiday wknd & whip sawed come PYPS (pick your pockets Sunday)...hehe
Cheers!!
edit....tell ya what tho....may not be a bad time to open a few usd shorts & risk the wait til the London open come Mon.
Maybe I'll go look for the most overbought usd chart & pounce?
"Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing."

RE:bobby...GBP/USD...this time it hit the 30 second EMA(169) and dropped....according to the Tunnel Method the EMA(144) and EMA(169) create the "Tunnel" and a significant cross and hold in either direction sets a short term trend.
bobby... BGP/USD has a 3hour channel that is biased to the bottom side..look at a 30 second chart to see whats really happening....has resistance at EMA(144) ..about 1.8250 ...bottom of channel is about 1.82268...Its making another bullish move on the 30 second right now but will need to cross above that EMA(144) to get any chance for channel top.
Ya I had to choose the 4 hour candle with my demo model. I'm still playing with it a little. GBP/USD has taken alot of capital this morning. The bottom bollie just keeps going lower and lower and it broke that "candle" support line. I guess I need to wait for a new 4 hour candle to develop fully.
Boca_Bobby
Yep bobby..works well fot me...I said 3hour because Oanda has 3 but not 4 hour candle chart but I think most have a 4hour...the 4 should be fine tho
OMG!!!!! That works. I am using a 4 hour chart and then swith to the 5 minute chart. Made money with the EUR/USD. Gonna look at the GBP where the profits can be the largest!
Boca_Bobby
BTW Worn... I have been working with the Tunnel Method posted about on your board and find it to be excellent!Others might want to check the posts on your board about that as well...that chart setup based on Gann theory and fibs works very well indeed if properly understood.
Ahhh!!..thats is ballyhoo...go to 3 hour candle chart and set a horizontal trendline at the exact top and bottom of the candle...then switch the chart to a 5 minute time frame and your 5 minute channel is clearly shown...notice how beautifully it tests the top and bottom of the channel til positive or negative breakout finally changes the channel?
