How’s the full time trading going relativity?

To Relativity and all the other great contributors on this thread: I’ve very recently gotten into Forex and I wanted to thank you all for this wonderful thread. I’m reading through it this past week and I’m only on page 123. Rel, thanks for taking it slow and making us drag our own conclusions out… It sure hurts, but the resulting conclusions are much more worthwhile. I hope one day I can contribute to the conversation after I have thoroughly digested all this information and done some of my own legwork. For now, let it simply suffice for me to say a big thank you to all involved!

I think that’s an interesting article for you, Relativity and all the followers. Currency Spikes at 4 P.M. in London Provide Rigging Clues - Bloomberg

A trader friend of mine posted it on facebook. It makes MasterForex’ claim about a controlled forex market a bit more realistic, to me.

Relativity, have u/anyone following the thread got the other chapters of book 3?
would be helpful thanks.

Hi Relativity, did you write it or someone else?

[QUOTE=“Relativity;525711”]

Not me. Masterforex-V himself. But I’ve understood enough of his works to come up with my own works. e.g. he uses the general ZigZag tool, I use Barros Swings and MMLC.[/QUOTE]

I find it hard to understand his English, this book is definitely not a smooth read… He is from Ukraine or something?

=) Shall keep on looking

Hi relativity, i’ve been studying this thread for quite some weeks now, reached the half and i must thank you cause it’s really open minded and helpful in understand how to set my personal trading. It’s a shame that i came here when all is finished, cause i’m just looking for a situation like this to discuss new ideas with other ppl. Anyway you gave us something invaluable.
I feel that some post is missing in this thread and maybe was you to hide some material now that the thread is closed? :slight_smile:
I ask you if it’s possible to unlock the 2 youtube videos you linked in post #516, would be very helpful for me.

Hi Rel,

I assume this thread is closed but wanted to thank you for all the invaluable knowledge given out. You inspired me to do my own research, so I did and may have found some pattern. At least now I come to believe that price and trend are not random at all. Using some basic TCD stuff, at least the price range can be projected to a certain degree for a particular day. I managed to do this on historical charts with great success. Previous day highs and lows play a great deal in next day price action, and I’m not talking about ADR or any indicator at all.

Thanks again for all the work you’ve done.

Is this thread officially closed? Rel, you had something very nice going in this thread. Unfortunately my light bulbs seem to light up very late. More like a fluorescent bulb…LOL.

Any more statisticians, programmers want to keep up with the work? With the permission of Rel, I would love to see this thread go forward, because this is the only thread that tackled trading in a whole different perspective.

To be honest, at first I didn’t get any of what Rel has been sayin. But I kept reading and re-reading the posts, so I get the concepts, approach and objective. But just when things get clearer, the thread goes numb.

So what’s it gonna be…

Anyone?

I’m really interested in continue to discuss. Since i started this thread i learned to make statistics with programming, just doing the basics one for now like hourly volume mean or calculating the odds of when the high/low of the day is made etc etc, but hey if i look back 3 months ago this looked me like rocket science!
I’m still grasping the first 100 pages of the thread, not diving yet into WA. But my trading has improved a lot and i can see really a better understanding of the market. Anyway, i’m a beginner, but i’ll be happy to discuss/test other people ideas and share mine as well!

Nice to see u posting here Rel, welcome back! :slight_smile:

Good to hear from you again Rel. Yeah, dreams really come true, when you work towards it and NEVER GIVE UP. I’m really happy for you.

Would love if you’d keep posting and keep the thread alive as much as you can.

Great, that’s a good start. Improve our trading is exactly what all of us are here for.

Wherever you are now Rel, I want to thank you so much for this thread.
For the past few months I have been working a lot on my trading, I haven’t been as far as I would have hoped but I improved my trading, thanks to you !

Hi Rel, nice to hear form you and hear that you are well :slight_smile:

@slfocus, Zuzzolo, snipip, other interested and gladly Relativity if you are interested

I think we learned a huge amount of stuff here at this Thread. Sometimes I think I sould really concentrate on one single thing, like the TCD stuff from SignalBender, e.g., and concentrate on this thing, thinking how this could improve my trading.
Are you interested in (maybe regulary) Skype call conferences for exchange about trading, especially applying the things we learned here into trading? I think we could really improve our trading, helping each other, one person maybe sees things the other person donesn’t see and so we could all take our trading together to the next level.
I personally do some research inspired by Relativity and would like to share some thougths!

Yep. Interested. I may not have priviledges to PM anyone, and I definitely don’t want to share my id’s publicly in the forum. First step in collaboration is communication.

So, maybe i’m missing something coz i’m still in the first 100 pages, but what do you mean with PTe? (i’ve searched this trough the thread, but can’t find explanations)

The second question that comes to me is how do you define objectively the weekly trend using daily chart?
Do you use also statistics on which day the extremes of the week are set? (these are the next stats i’m doing on forex)

For what i saw, when a h5 or a d1 swing is plotted the trend is often close to the end, so i find difficult to use it for defining trends; even if i feel comfortable in predicting volatility, i still have a lot of doubts about the weekly trend. For now i’m using d1 swing channels and gmmas.

Sorry if i ask something that is already been discussed.

EDIT: ok i saw after posting that you added new images to you post. Looking at the second. What you tell make sense. So you just need an HH and a HL to determine if it’s uptrend. Thinking like this, the last two days of EURUSD represent the beginning of a new uptrend, right? And the next big movement should be in the direction of this new uptrend, right again?
For the third image i will check it better when i’ll dive in to WA section of your thread. Thank you!

Hi Rel,

This is great. I have a couple of questions.

how to locate retracements developing into reversals. What is your criteria. e.g. “a” more than 50% of the total length of 1-5 (in MF denomination of wave) ?
2.
do you usually trade the retracement at the beginning to cash in if there happens to be a reversal too?
3.
What sort of tight entries you would normally get when trading H1/D1. Could it be 20-30pips SL on avg?

Thanks again for the great update for the thread. Its really refreshing to see your posts.
