Yes that is a good point Avery. It is indeed important to understand your indicators (instrument panel). However, we don't let computers fly solo (at least not the important parts like take off and landing) without human assistance for a good reason. Indicators/instruments can be fooled (http://scie...

Mo, Having started as a grain trader I can tell you that you have some frikkin steel balls trading even 1 lot of gold on a $2k account.

Turn on Your Experience Indicator
