But Avery, open to say I do not really understnd how you can use this PIP workspace for trading. You do not see any trend lines or longer timefrime, how you can decide which direction to take?

That's simple, you're trading IN THE MOMENT, not in the past.

If you are driving down a new road and it starts to bend to the right, you automatically steer right.

If it starts to bend to the left, you automatically steer left.

So if you are trading and the price...

moves up, you buy, and the price moves down you sell. You can play a video game, but isn't the problem each buy and sell costs you something. Because of the broker fee, you have to ride a trend of some degree, or don't you.

At www.efxgroup.com ( tell them THE RUMPLED ONE sent you) if the EURUSD moves .0002, you make ~ $0.70 on the trade.

A 3 pip move makes you $1.70.

On 100 minilots, that's $170 in seconds sometimes.

Avery, your neverending help is really outstanding. Do you use some mental SL for this strategy, or do you just make a few trades in 1min...and that´s it!

From this perspective, tape reading, it is hard to discern a pattern, and it looks like a random walk. It would be hard to know what button to push other than flipping a coin. In other words, most people could not see the road.

Just be aware that EFX/Mbt does not provide *real* last prices for FX, they are synthetically generated, also they do not provide volume information. Phil Huetter (the mbt api guy) said on their mailing list that those prices are just a "best guess", which should not be relied upon.

Another argument, why I do not absolutely understand how can somebody get some pips from this idea...

One minute can be a long time... sometimes it is a matter of seconds.

You're getting warmer.

All I need is 2 pips to breakeven and 3 to start making real money.

Traders have been DUPED by the lore of 50 and 100 pip profits. If you can make one 2 pip net trade per day, you can turn a 1 minilot trade into $11,000 in a year. Net 4 pips and you will have over $1 million cash.

Banks pay you about 5% per year on your deposit account. If you just net 1 pip per day, you do that in a week.

IS THE IMAGE GETTING CLEARER?
