You're right dan_99503, my blog does not any many details on how I trade. My blog audience is not other traders, so I don't get very technical. My audience just wants to see results of my trades, that is their interest.
I do not publish signals, so I can not advise you there. But I am willing to share my experience with other traders. We just have to figure out how. I know nothing about these .gif files or how to convert my files to .gif files.
That being said, let's talk trading strategies. I use different strategies for different times of day, different types of markets, different currency pair. Does it do any good to give you a short term momentum strategy to someone doing position trading? How well will a strategy for the gbp/usd (cable) pair work on the nzd/usd (kiwi) pair? I don't know.
The point is that I would have to know something about how you trade before I could give you any advice. There is
no substitute for experience.
How about indicators? Do you use Bollinger bands, MACD, fibonaccis, pivot points, moving averages? I don't use anything but simple candlesticks and different time period charts - mainly the 1 minute, 15 minute, and daily charts.
What style of trader are you? Are you a short term momentum trader? Swing trader? Position trader? Do you like breakouts and trend trading, or are you a channel trader?
What pairs do you trade? I prefer the major currencies, gbp/usd, eur/usd, usd/yen, and the best off currency I like is the gbp/jpy (PJ).
Any new trader has to learn what he/she like to trade and the style used. He has to learn what indicators work best in what type of market it is (trending or channel).
Do you have a couple hours to trade per day or can you monitor the markets 20+ hours per day like I do? Do you want strategies that you can set up and walk away from, checking on it many hours later?
I am primarily a momentum and swing trader. I trade best in a channel market. But I've learned to adapt my style of trading to the time of day, type of market, currency pair, day of week, pre-announcement/post announcement, and probably a half a dozen other factors. That is how I can achieve some high pip totals. I have lived with the market for the last four years, spending routinely 18-20 hrs per day monitoring it.
But I don't have everything figured out yet either. I can not tell you how many times I've margined out account in the last four years, mainly because of lot of them have been demo accounts. I still use demo accounts regularly to try things out and sharpen my skills. My blog has results of one of my main live accounts.
I am willing to talk trading with other traders. I'm willing to publish my trading reports (if I can figure out how in this forum). Call me, email me, we will figure something out. We can even set up a group conference call number for a lot of traders all at once. I'm open to use my conference call number for this purpose.
