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.

I agree.  

Sounds like you know what you're doing anyway.

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

    • GBPAUD Elliott Wave Analysis - Trading Lounge British Pound/Australian Dollar (GBPAUD) Day Chart GBPAUD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend Mode: Corrective Structure: Orange Wave 2 Position: Navy Blue Wave 3 Direction Next Higher Degrees: Orange Wave 3 Details: The analysis indicates that orange wave 1 appears completed, with orange wave 2 currently in progress. Wave Cancel Invalidation Level: 1.92313 Analysis Overview: The GBPAUD daily chart highlights a counter-trend movement using the Elliott Wave methodology. The wave mode is classified as corrective, focusing on the development of orange wave 2 within the broader context of navy blue wave 3. This setup represents a temporary pullback within the larger upward trend. Current Wave Context: Orange wave 1 seems to have concluded, paving the way for orange wave 2, a corrective movement. This phase involves price retracements within the broader structure, setting up for a potential transition into orange wave 3, an impulsive phase. Invalidation Level: The wave count becomes invalid if the price breaches 1.92313, requiring a re-evaluation of the wave structure and overall trend analysis. Corrective Phase Implications: This stage in the Elliott Wave sequence represents a consolidation period within a larger bullish pattern. The ongoing correction in orange wave 2 lays the groundwork for the anticipated upward move of orange wave 3. Trading Insights: Traders can leverage this phase by monitoring signals that suggest the completion of orange wave 2. Anticipating the subsequent upward trend, aligning strategies with market dynamics can yield better results. Key levels within the corrective structure provide critical decision points for trade setups. By understanding the wave dynamics and the broader market behavior, participants can enhance their trading decisions, optimizing for the upcoming orange wave 3 phase.   British Pound/Australian Dollar (GBPAUD) 4-Hour Chart GBPAUD Elliott Wave Technical Analysis Function: Counter Trend Mode: Corrective Structure: Orange Wave 2 Position: Navy Blue Wave 3 Direction Next Higher Degrees: Orange Wave 3 Details: The analysis indicates that orange wave 1 appears completed, and orange wave 2 is currently unfolding. Wave Cancel Invalidation Level: 1.92313 Analysis Overview: The GBPAUD 4-hour chart illustrates a counter-trend movement identified using the Elliott Wave framework. The wave mode is corrective, focusing on the development of orange wave 2, which is nested within the broader structure of navy blue wave 3.

Corrective Phase Implications: The ongoing correction within orange wave 2 is a typical consolidation phase in the larger bullish wave formation. This phase allows the market to realign before resuming its upward momentum with orange wave 3. Trading Insights: Traders should monitor for signals indicating the completion of orange wave 2 to capitalize on the anticipated upward movement. Leveraging key levels within the corrective structure can aid in formulating strategic entries and exits. Understanding the Elliott Wave sequence enhances market interpretation, offering a clearer path for aligning trading decisions with future trends.

    • The Solana price today stands at $229.92, with a 24-hour trading volume of $5.09 billion, highlighting robust market activity. Currently, the Solana coin price is -12.65% below its all-time high (ATH) of $263.21, achieved on November 23, 2024. However, the price of Solana has surged an impressive 45,809.76% from its all-time low (ATL) of $0.5008, emphasizing its growth potential. Technicals support a bullish outlook for Sol crypto price. On the daily chart, SOL has formed a bullish flag pattern, suggesting further gains. Additionally, a break-and-retest pattern at $210—an important level tested in March—confirms the continuation of its uptrend. On the weekly chart, SOL has established a cup-and-handle pattern with a potential target of $511, based on a 97% projection from its upper resistance. The integration of ZK-rollups significantly boosts Solana crypto price. This innovation enhances privacy, security, and on-chain computations, with projects like ArciumHQ and DarklakeFi strengthening its ecosystem. Furthermore, a sharp increase in Total Value Locked (TVL) to $9.5 billion by December 7 reflects rising network activity, driving Solana price now. With growing adoption and technological advancements, the Sol price prediction remains optimistic, positioning Solana as a blockchain leader.
