    Passed on the bullish engulfing candle because the stop loss would have been too far away

    @CharlotteIG I wonder how many people have lost money because of IG's faulty Pivot Point calculations? Maybe you can give me some of my money back? I'll only spend it on IG again

    Let's rewind to April 2020 and do one hundred trades using the 'replay' function on tradingview.com. Here's trade number1. The MACD crosses and it looks like we will see a downward movement. R:R is always 1:1.5 Trade 1: 31 March 2020. Short. Result: profit

    Day traders work every day to lose money.

    In general though, 15 minutes seems to be better for spotting the turns. The MACD crossings often come 'too later' on high time frames. Oh Josephine, this is all far too w@nky to be sustainable.

    And at this point the March 2020 event occurs and the 15 minute timeframe is untradeable. Sell and hold
  13. dmedin
    You wouldn't buy this MACD crossing because the candles are incredibly weak.

    I was geeing it on and getting anxious, even although this is data from months ago

    Badu is with you baby 😘

    Buy on bullish candle with MACD crossing above signal even if it's not from below zero? Sell on bearish candle with MACD crossing below signal even if it's not from above zero?

    Thorough and clear! It is a thing of beauty. And it's exotic, like a Geisha. https://www.ig.com/en-ch/trading-strategies/ichimoku-cloud-trading-strategies-explained-180423

    The MACD gives better and more reliable signals?

    Williams %R is just an inverted %K line, and, yes, it is also totally cr@p.
  20. dmedin
    Yep. A disaster on 15 minutes time frame too.

    Three losers followed by one winner, Tom. It ain't great 🤯
  22. dmedin
    Hahahaha 🤡
  23. dmedin
    Here we are toots, a stoch crossing from above 80, both %K and %D pointing down and a bearish candle formation. Let's see what happens next shall we 😘
  24. dmedin
    Wait until both %K and %D are sloping downwards to sell, sloping upwards to buy? 💩

    Tried backtesting this in 'replay mode' (to avoid the possibility of backtesting with hindsight), H1 timeframe, and it's utter garbage.

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 69% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work, and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. Professional clients can lose more than they deposit. All trading involves risk.

The value of shares, ETFs and ETCs bought through a share dealing account, a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
