Grid trading can be used effectively to trade forex and indices, traders must be skilled and knowledgeable, about their instruments and the grid strategy they employ.I trade grids based on the following professional trading thinking.

Not everything on forums and private forums makes money.Just beware.There are some people who know how to make money, but there are 99.9%  high priests of noise on internet sites and forums.These 99.9% of people are time wasters for the real traders, so beware.Ignore the quacks on forums, they just send you wrong internet sites to learn.

 

Apply grid strategy to forex based on interest rates expectations , so at present the grid strategy would be long usd short euro.Buy the dip grid is another grid strategy.

I always thought you were a grid trader... 

 

Won't work.  Grid trading is seductive but just doesn't work.  You need exposure to profit.

 

I'm getting the hurry-ups from the forum algo - save or discard.  Something new?  Algo's bossing us around - I think that will create a new form of "rage" (eg road rage) - getting off topic.  

Well, I have seen this topic create "grid-rage" - a lot of people don't like gridding...A lot love it too.

Grid trading makes money, it is ideally suited for forex and indices investing.If you you had taken a professional view on grid trading, you had operated a short bearish grid, you would have made money.This is how professionals trade forex, if you had applied professional approach to grid trading and based it on fundamentals, i.e interest rate drivers, you would make money.

If you had listened to the right people and used a bearish grid , you would make money  in this down trend.The information was available 12 months ago.

 

Unfortunately ,you have misinformation quacks on every forum, teaching the wrong way to trade.They are the high priests of noise on forums, they have useless opinions on every instrument  and how to trade it ,using bs technical analysis.The forums are essentially the blind leading the blind, so nobody ends up ahead, because charlatans are voicing their opinions and leading the blind.

Hi

 

I would disagree with a few things you've said.  Firstly, in what applies to me personally - I don't follow "quacks" and don't give much credence to TA at all.  So I agree with what you say (just not in that it applies to me).  

 

The simple thing you've said which stands out to me is that "you would have made money in this down-trend" (using grid trading).  I would have just shorted it - no grid - and made money.  No "hedge" to unwind, no reduced profits, and in the current rate environments, there is no advantage with trying to capture some interest.  

 

Grid trading, the way I understand it, is seductive like I said, but you need exposure - (net exposure) - to profit.  If you had a grid you're always going to have to unwind it meaning one leg ultimately will be a directional trade.  So while it can work, it is prolonging the inevitable: a single-exposure directional trade.  

 

That spreadsheet of a grid only has two open positions too, with an exposure of basically nothing and huge 300 pip TP/SL?  Massive - trending more than gridding??

 

You might have some variations on the standard grid concepts.  If they work, good on you.  But for me, it's something that just seems "wrong".

Here is a bullish grid on us30 .It is a form of long biased investing approach, it lets you enter at several oversold  levels.I use several bullish and bearish grid strategies.

The problem is timing the market with your approach.I was shorting Euro usd several months ago, everytime I shorted , it went higher.With a grid I know my risk, from the start, I use down trend and uptrend grids, most amateurs use random grids, without fundamental drivers.

 

I know exactly my risk with this type of grid trading.Mine is more based on trend/fundamentals drivers grid.The calculations are a risk  of about 500 pips  average on a thousand pip grid.The grid is trading long and shorts,and reinstating closed trades,  with a final downtrend mode.You have to take risk to make money, this grid takes risks based on probabilities  and directional bias.

 

It is all mechanical without emotions.

The good thing about automated grid trading is, one can trade 8 different instruments, with preset risk parameters.Everything is done automatically.This type of trading has worked well in the past.One could trade gbp/usd/eur usd/dax,asx200,ftse.dow, eur jpy and usdjpy., 8 instruments  at the same time.

 

Here new ftse   /asx grids

    • Tron (TRX) is showing bullish signs after breaking out of a falling wedge pattern, a bullish technical formation. Currently trading at $0.15407, TRX price is expected to push further upwards toward the $0.156 target, with the following key details: Price of TRX: $0.1541, up 1.12%. Bullish Breakout: The falling wedge breakout points toward further price appreciation. Support and Resistance Zones: Support Zone: Strong support between $0.152 and $0.153, providing a cushion in case of any pullbacks. Resistance Level: The next resistance is at $0.156, which needs to be broken for a further bullish continuation. SUN Token: Whale Activity and Market Impact In the past two hours, an anonymous whale sold $1 million worth of SUN tokens, causing the price to drop by 7.07%. Currently, SUN is trading at $0.02483, according to CoinMarketCap. Tron’s founder, Justin Sun, denied owning the whale address responsible for the sale, distancing himself from the market turbulence. While Bitcoin's recent performance shows renewed investor confidence, the market's response to CPI data and the upcoming FOMC decision will be crucial in shaping the next bullish or bearish trend. As for Tron (TRX), the current bullish structure may offer opportunities for further gains, with $0.156 as the key target to watch. Keep an eye on the broader crypto market for more volatility and updates in the coming day. 
    • Natural Gas Elliott Wave Analysis Natural Gas is currently recovering from its August 2024 low, but technical indicators suggest that the commodity may soon face resistance, continuing the bearish trend from its June 2024 high. This analysis will provide insights from an Elliott Wave perspective, detailing the potential for further downside and the key levels to watch in the coming weeks.   Long-Term Chart Analysis On the daily chart, Natural Gas has been in a long-term downtrend since reaching a peak near $10 in August 2022. This downtrend is unfolding as a corrective a-b-c pattern of the cycle degree. The first leg of this correction, labeled wave a, completed around the $4.77 level. Following that, the market rallied in wave b, which topped out near $7.61.   Since November 2022, Natural Gas has been in the final leg of this corrective structure, progressing within an ending diagonal pattern in wave c. Ending diagonals typically indicate the final phase of a larger correction, suggesting that this bearish move may be nearing its conclusion. However, the market still has further downside potential before a major bottom is in place. The current phase of this correction is the fifth and final leg of the ending diagonal, labeled wave 5 (circled). This leg is unfolding as a three-wave structure and is expected to break below the previous low of wave 3 (circled), which was at 1.524. Once wave 5 (circled) completes, the entire a-b-c corrective pattern should also conclude, potentially signaling the end of the long-term downtrend. A significant reversal could then follow, setting the stage for a longer-term bullish phase.   Daily Chart Analysis The daily chart confirms that Natural Gas is currently in the 5th wave of the diagonal pattern, and this leg appears to be developing in a three-wave structure. The market is likely to experience further downside pressure, especially as it approaches and breaks below the 1.524 low from wave 3 (circled). A continuation of this bearish momentum could result in the final leg of wave 5 (circled), completing the larger correction. H4 Chart Analysis Zooming into the H4 chart, we see more detailed insights into the recent price action. Wave (A) of the current decline completed as an impulse sequence at 1.88 in early August 2024, marking the first leg of the larger move down. This was followed by a corrective bounce in wave (B), which appears to have formed an irregular flat pattern. Wave A of this flat correction finished on August 15, 2024, and wave B then broke below the starting price of wave A before ending at the August 2024 low. Wave C of (B) is now developing, but the price action remains choppy, especially near the top. Given the structure of the wave, the most probable outcome is an ending diagonal pattern for wave C. However, the structure remains somewhat unclear, and it would be prudent to wait for a break below the low of wave B to confirm the resumption of the bearish trend. Once wave C of (B) completes, the market is expected to resume its downward move, continuing the larger bearish sequence that began in June 2024. The break of wave B’s low will be a key signal that bearish dominance has returned and that the final leg of the ending diagonal in wave 5 (circled) is underway. Conclusion Natural Gas is currently in the final phase of a long-term corrective pattern, with further downside expected before the trend reverses. The Elliott Wave structure suggests that wave 5 (circled) of the ongoing diagonal pattern is still in progress, and a break below 1.524 is likely in the near future. On the H4 chart, the structure remains tricky, but once the low of wave B is breached, the bearish trend should resume with force. Traders should remain cautious but prepare for a potential buying opportunity once the final leg of this correction completes.   Technical Analyst : Sanmi Adeagbo Source : Tradinglounge.com get trial here!
