Suffering lies ahead for many.

I think 'technical analysts' should be the next to get the chop -

IG Premium event - 18:30 on June 24th
dmedin replied to dmedin's topic in General Trading Strategy Discussion
Not sure why this was billed as a 'premium' event, summary was basically: Nobody predicted 2020 correctly Market went down a lot Market went up a lot Market might go up and down from now on Retail clients get it wrong every time and lose money Cheers for that ... -

Sitting waiting on Chris Beauchamp to turn up, being 10 mins late is always a great start.

I believe the expression used by trendy young London people these days is 'IDGAF'.

Which has no MA lines. Who doesn't use MA lines?!!!! -
Trade Planning and Testing
dmedin replied to Caseynotes's topic in General Trading Strategy Discussion
In this example, all buy and sell signals given by stochastics and MACD are cancelled out by the price being above or below 100 and 200 MA lines. Hence, you simply wouldn't trade this at all.

Oh dear But all of the examples in your videos show things that work, and when I try them I see that they do not work. It's almost as if those videos are specifically set up for that purpose and don't show the reality. -

Until today at least, when it clearly seems to be making new lows. But I'm sure tomorrow it will reverse and go in completely the other direction again -

Same thing on 30 mins time frame. Not a single solid signal given by all the indicators in agreement. However ... if you look at the daily chart, price does appear to be going sideways so it does kind of agree with the picture painted by the daily chart.

So there's one actionable signal on Monday 15th June (8 days ago, and even in this case it might not have given a 2:1 trade), are signals on lower time frames as reliable as this?
-
So going off this hideous chart, why would anyone have been going long after Mon 8th/Tues 9th? Because you trade upswings on lower timeframes? What kind of trend is that, anyway? Isn't it just going sideways? The lines and indicators aren't telling me anything that I can't already see. Confused. No wonder so many people lose money.

So what's the advantage in slapping all the extra lines, indicators and oscillators on there? The TradingRush guy didn't do it? -

Is that what you do, I bet you put on crazy amounts like £10 per point so a ten pip move in your favour is worth the time and effort. Which it isn't if you're betting 50p a point.

Backtesting a trailing stop
dmedin replied to SteveM2025's question in IG Chart Support - Charts, MT4 and PRT
'Eyeballing' is a questionable method, certainly doesn't qualify as scientific. Unless you can 'replay' the price movement and not have all the subsequent price action in front of you, in which case you are 'backtesting with the benefit of hindsight'. -
They are really accelerating the implementation of the Protocols now ...

Yes, sometimes you need to refresh your browser. The IG developers recommend Google Chrome, but even on that browser it sometimes f*cks up.
