This post is a kinda response to a conversation I was having with another Steemian that I follow, @andrius1. He made a trade, got it a little wrong and had a small loss. No big deal, but we got into a

This is a just a short post to outline some of my trading methods and systems. It's really just to show that there are many ways to make money trading, all down to personal preference and personality.

I can't take any credit for this, it's from a trader called Mark Douglas (look him up). I just thought it was a good story and blatantly ripped it off (in part) to post here. Apparently it's a true story...

So, it looks like Bitcoin took a major dump the last couple of days, apparently due to a Mt Gox trustee dumping a load. Can anyone tell me which Elliot Wave predicted it ? Was it something in the Ichimoku

Everyone probably knows someone who claims to be an awesome trader, constantly boasting about their bottom line, or their hit rate or the risk/reward they 'always' get. We know it's not true and probably

What's the best trend indicator to use ? Everyone wants to find trends. Buy in an uptrend and you'll make money. Sell in a downtrend and you'll make money. How to get out of a trade and take profit ? Try

How money do you think you're going to make trading ? I know I've been writing a lot of 'downer' posts lately, and this one is going to seem like one also. But it's not, it actually might make you realise

How's that for clickbait ? Prepare to be disappointed.. I don't normally bother sharing this kind of stuff, I was just browsing around looking for setups for tomorrow and noticed USD/CAD on the hourly.

I've been having a conversation with another Steemit user recently, someone who allegedly makes a full living from Steemit. They're having trouble trying to understand that I don't want to make any money

(edit) this post is pretty worthless now because I edited it below, apologies to everyone who upvoted it, I was being a douche, my fault :-( Ok, so I've been heavily dissin on the 'gurus' lately, so I

This post is probably going to upset some people. I'll probably get flagged by some asshole if I'm lucky. But that's only because butthurt people use flags to disagree and punish people, not because they've

In this post I'll try to explain some of the problems with relying on absolute candles and closes, relative to time periods. I'll explain a real situation, but it's exaggerated for demonstration purposes

If you're reading this then I probably don't have to explain what candles are or how they're formed. Open, high, low, close, up, down, all basic stuff yada yada. Something that most people overlook though,

I like candle charts, but probably not just because of what they show but because it's what I 'grew up' on (I really prefer bar charts for price action trading). Most people use candles though, so it seems

I saw a post on the Kelly Criterion recently on Steemit and resteemed it, because by pure coincidence I was looking at the Kelly formula myself only recently. Warning, this post is a little maths heavy...

This is just for fun, so don't let it rustle your jimmies too much. Can anyone spot the difference ? Screenshots from professionals who make money trading Screenshots from retail traders Header image credit

I can't think of a worse analogy than comparing crypto currency to gold. People keep saying that crypto is 'virtual gold', and a 'wealth store'. But despite the effort to shoehorn gold related terminology

How's that for a clickbait title ? :-) Everyone is probably sick of looking at the (multitude) of bad technical analysis posts, so I thought I'd do a post on what it means to trade price action instead.

Sorry, I'm afraid it's not 'We don't talk about Trading Club' :-) Well actually that's kinda true. You'll find that most successful traders when they find a good system, they keep that shit to themselves

This is kind of addendum to my post about the secret formula, an example of using the formula to ensure success... I've always been fascinated with 'gaming the system' and 'sticking it to the man', always
