  1. Write a Google web scraper script. For each company in (list of companies) do 'Google company' and return the side bar on the top right of the results that gives a company summary. Must try it myself!
  2. But the issue is that people would have died unnecessarily because the NHS couldn't cope with an influx, even if it was just thousands/tens of thousands
  3. The clapping and honking only lasted a minute or so here last night, maybe people have had enough of 'the clap'.
  4. Extremely positive Price breaks 20 SMA, holds above it, then it's above 50 SMA and it carries on for some time usually - the 50 SMA is usually a support from that point and the exit is when it's beneath 50 SMA (on a candle close underneath, without a shadow touching the line itself)
  5. 10 min chart with 20 & 50 SMA, RSI and 4 hour pivots on PRT - very nice Prefer those MA lines over MACD
  6. lol he is talking about arbitrage, taking advantage of price discrepancies between brokers. Sounds like something out of 'The New Market Wizards' (silver arbitrage in the 70s). Then there's the old-style floor brokers who had an edge but it was over their own clients and monkey business with options pricing. Funny how many traders have got their 'edge' from exploiting weaknesses rather than through 'analysis'.
  7. Gonna watch them videos and re-read all me books 🤓
  8. I'm in a state of mental paralysis and confusion - fever? Cognitive decline like Joe Biden? Maybe I'll drop dead (hope so)
  9. I wonder if his blonde lover treated him like a god
  10. I'm buried beneath a blizzard of: - Sources of information - Differing opinions - Supposed trading methods (hundreds) - People trying to sell stuff - Losing money and being wrong - Barrage of negative and often contradictory news from Reuters - Having to do other, non-trading stuff It all feels like a huge scam really. Maybe this is just too much and I'm too simpleminded to deal with it? Time to run away and hide 😊-
  11. lol I'm probably just not good enough, wouldn't be the first time
  12. Totally agree with you and was just thinking the same thing. @CharlotteIG Would be great if IG could partner with Tradingview, ditch your home brew web platform because let's be honest it just isn't very good
  13. Jes-s Fu-king Chr-st, I've put too much into it to let it go
  14. So let me repeat this: I have not found one single combination that works well on a short time frame. The only method that has any promise is long-term MAs on daily charts, which is very much like buy and hold except that you can also go short. And it means you don't trade very often, as the market is just going sideways 70% of the time. What am I missing? I really, honestly don't see how you can trade 5 minutes or even hourly unless you have 'big boy's toys' ... What is the point?
  15. My 'stats' show that I have lost an enormous amount of money and that all the indicators and patterns are hopelessly unreliable, and trading short-term is particularly disastrous?
  16. Going to have to give up? All I can see for real is men who boast of their fortunes, but they can't be making it from TA because I've never once seen a TA system work reliably?
  17. I'm hopelessly confused. I don't see a single 'strategy' that can reliably make money. What am I missing?
  18. RSI losses far less often than MACD though and is occasionally useful to spotting divergences.
  19. This is the solution to global warming, hopefully it is just a warm-up and the world will soon become communist
  20. He says he's 'wasted years' testing out strategies though. I personally don't like the MACD that much. I like the three MA combination much better. RSI has proven itself to be useful many times, and not too noisy. I also like the simplicity and clarity of the German guy's book ('Ve are lookink for flegs!')
  21. Seems like a very good channel! 🤓
  22. He's made an APP ... So a programming and statistics background is needed? Okay, give me 5 - 10 years to catch up to where he is now ... lol
  23. They've been moving down all night... looks like a lower low with a lower high in the making to me
