Hi I'm new to the game too, been trading since last spring. I found this place while chasing down information about Walter's icon trading system and fantail vma3.

Presently I'm trading at a break-even level, with now and then a few cents more. I have a little ability with MQ4, but don't really see the need to get too far down that road as MQ5 is apparently just round the corner.

I have a multitude of things I call hobbies, sculpting, knife-making, painting, writing, reading - fantasy, etc, etc. :)

Hi,

 

Long time reader / lurker. Started looking into trading several years ago. Left it for a while. Came back. Left again. Came back... I'm in the UK, and recently have been trading stocks over several days / weeks (swing trading).

 

I'm unsure what I can bring to TL that hasn't been already said by many posters who are vastly more experienced than me. But I know I ought to be a bit more active, so here I am.

your (and many other silent traders') participation is valuable because we all have different point of views, ideas

Hi there,

 

I'd like to start off a thread where everyone can post to say hello or ask a question. I personally am an experienced trader and not a beginner. However, being a new member of the TL team, I feel I do qualify!!

 

I trade E-mini futures mainly S&P 500. I am a full-time retail trader. My main concepts are auction theory and volume analysis. I try my best to listen to the market and control my basic human instincts!! :crap:

 

Cheers,

 

TheNegotiator.

 

Hello Everyone,

 

I initially started trading back in 1998 but stopped as the Internet Bubble crashed and I realized how little I knew about the markets and trading. Back then, all you had to do was throw a dart at any internet stock and you were almost guaranteed to make money on the uprising trend.

 

I stopped trading until this year, January 2012. My life is more stable and I am able to apply my efforts towards trading again, which I have really missed all these years.

 

I've still got a lot to learn, so gathering experience from others is important to me. As I get more comfortable and consistent with my trading, I intend to return the favor by helping others achieve that optimal trading state where they can be successful in their trading.

 

First, work on me and my trading, then help others...that's the goal, anyways.

 

I have limited my trading to ES,NQ for now. I have really appreciated the posts and comments from TheNegotiator, JoshDance, SoulTrader, gosu, Tams, roztom, and Steve46 just to name a few. These are the folks I have seen posting on the ES market. As I expand my focus area, I'm sure there will be plenty more people to add to my "thank you" list. The TL community is huge and I've only scratched the tip of the iceberg.

 

I look forward to being more active within the TL community.

 

Thanks,

 

CYP

this is the internet...

 

we have no ethnicity, no skin color differences,

 

no nationalistic allegiance, no political affiliations,

 

no religion, no oath, no vow,

 

no age, no gender, no sexual orientations,

 

maybe philosophical debates, but no care.

 

 

 

we are traders,

 

we have no enemies,

 

the market is our best friend.

 

any friend of the market is a friend of mine, too.

If you are on the other side of my trade, you are my enemy! :rofl:

 

MMS

 

I don't look at it that way...

 

 

the market is a BIG pool... you are only using a spoon to fetch a drink.

 

there is plenty to go around,

there is enough for everyone, and more.

 

 

so what if I am on the other side,

I am your enemy ONLY if I am taking money from YOU.

 

if you are taking money from me, then I am not your enemy, I am your enabler.

I am new to FX trading, trying a demo account.

I want to try one more demo account from another broker. My question may sound silly :)

Is it ok to download MT4 from 2 different brokers at same computer at same time?

Thanks for educated reply.

    • Why not to simply connect you account to myfxbook which will collect all this data automatically for you? The process you described looks tedious and a bit obsolete but may work for you though.
    • The big breakthrough with AI right now is “natural language computing.”   Meaning, you can speak in natural language to a computer and it can go through huge data sets, make sense out of them, and speak back to you in natural language.   That alone is a huge breakthrough.   The next leg? AI agents. Where they don’t just speak back to you.   They take action. Here’s the definition I like best: an AI agent is an autonomous system that uses tools, memory, and context to accomplish goals that require multiple steps.   Everything from simple tasks (analyzing web traffic) to more complex goals (building executive briefings or optimizing websites).   They can:   > Reason across multiple steps.   >Use tools like a real assistant (Excel spreadsheets, budgeting apps, search engines, etc.)   > Remember things.   And AI agents are not islands. They talk to other agents.   They can collaborate. Specialized agents that excel at narrow tasks can communicate and amplify one another’s strengths—whether it’s reasoning, data processing, or real-time monitoring.   What it Looks Like You wake up one morning, drink your coffee, and tell your AI agent, “I need to save $500 a month.”   It gets to work.   First, it finds all your recurring subscriptions. Turns out you’re paying $8.99 for a streaming service you forgot you had.   It cancels it. Then it calls your internet provider, negotiates a lower bill, and saves you another $40. Finally, it finds you car insurance that’s $200 cheaper per year.   What used to take you hours—digging through statements, talking to customer service reps on hold for an hour, comparing plans—is done while you’re scrolling Twitter.   Another example: one agent tracks your home maintenance needs and gets information from a local weather-monitoring agent. Result: "Rain forecast next week - should we schedule gutter cleaning now?"   Another: an AI agent will plan your vacations (“Book me a week in Italy for under $2,000”), find the cheapest flights, and sort out hotels with a view.   It’ll remind you to pay bills, schedule doctor’s appointments, and track expenses so you’re not wondering where your paycheck went every month.   The old world gave you tools—Excel spreadsheets, search engines, budgeting apps. The new world gives you agents who do the work for you.   Don’t Get Too Scared (or Excited) Yet William Gibson famously said: "The future is already here – it's just not evenly distributed."   AI agents will distribute it. For decades, the tools that billionaires and corporations used to get ahead—personal assistants, financial advisors, lawyers—were out of reach for regular people.   AI agents could change that.   BUT, remember…   We’re in inning one.   AI agents have a ways to go.   They’re imperfect. They mess up. They need more defenses to get ready for prime time.   To be sure, AI is powerful, but it’s not a miracle worker. It’s great at helping humans solve problems, but it’s not going to replace all jobs overnight.   Instead of fearing AI, think of it as a tool to A.] save you time on boring stuff and B.] amplify what you’re already good at. Right now is the BEST time to start experimenting. It’s also the best time to find investments that will “make AI work for you”.
