From Monte Carlo tests and demo runs, martingale looks great until the tail shows up—one volatility event can erase months of gains. If you insist, cap levels, use tiny base lots, and set an equity stop; otherwise the “profitability” is just hidden risk waiting to surface
That behavior screams hidden exit logic - equity protection, trailing/timeout, or a filter flipping state. Turn on verbose logs (Print/Journal every close condition), backtest in visual mode, and check stop-out vs. broker margin
Same lesson here - what saved my account was risking 0.5–1% per trade and stopping for the day at −2R. Position size = (account * risk%) divided (SL pips * pip value); boring, but it turns trading into a business.
I’ve run PZ Trend on H4/D1 for months; great for bias, noisy on M15. I only take signals with the 200-EMA trend and wait for an ATR-based pullback—cut my false flips by about half
Been using PZ‑Trend with HFM for a month—helps spot momentum, but without solid entry criteria and risk management it’s just noise. I layer it with my own EMA & MACD rules to avoid false flips
Be cautious - before investing, check if they’re regulated and transparent about fees. I’ve seen too many so‑called ‘funds’ that vanish when profits roll in
Forex isn’t a quick fix, even if pitched as such - coming from an online trading journey, I view it as a skill-builder, not a job replacement: start small, learn diligently, and don’t trade funds you need
I feel you—been there when my account was switched mid‑stream and it tanked. Even with regulation, always monitor entity changes and withdraw profits regularly.
I view Forex and crypto as complementary—Forex offers stability and liquidity, while crypto brings volatility and opportunity. My experience shows diversifying between both can smooth returns and balance risk
I’ve tested Fibonacci pivot tools in the HFM's autochartist software and realized the real value comes from combining them with price action—not blindly relying on lines. The pivot gives zones, but context defines winners
I’d ask: “I’ve tried a few common indicators with limited success—what’s your take on combining them with price action at key levels? Based on my experience, layering simple tools often works better than chasing one ‘powerful’ indicator.
From my experience, custom indicators can help, but beware - log scale may distort price action. I’d suggest testing on demo before committing real money.
I see posts promoting “100 % signals” and, from what I’ve experienced, that’s always a red flag. No signal service consistently delivers—your own testing, analysis, and risk control matter more than any “perfect” alert
Your suggestions highlight education first which I couldn’t agree more with as a newbie I survived by demo‑training for months. Now, I still revisit those basics every quarter to stay sharp
With Bitcoin currently trading around $103,737, surpassing the $100K mark, it's evident that the market has strong bullish momentum. Do you anticipate this trend continuing towards new all-time highs?
The Golden Eagle indicator's claim of non-repaint signals is intriguing. Has anyone tested its accuracy over an extended period or during high-volatility sessions?
