Oh I see. The problem is that IG doesn't present the numbers in a form which shows the opening and closing times and prices in the same row and I always come up with a different way of preparing it. Anyway, better today - lower expectations helped. Time MarketName Result Size Level...

No, the difference was that I was ignoring all the technical analysis. But it might just have been luck.

So you see a setup, like a stock goes down to vwap. You wait to see if it bounces. It doesn't. It starts going below, so you have confirmation. You get in. Then it goes up. So it was a bottom. Stupid you for not being able to see that it would go up and become a bottom. You said to include...

Because it's strange that would have written "Go short" after you had done so, rather than "Went short".

Maybe you edited it twice, but whatever, it's a shame that the only timing shown for your edit is not a few minutes later, but nearly three hours.

Closed out just after 3pm cos of bad home sales news: 27/06/2024 15:04 Spot Gold -15 2312.4 2329.13 -£250.95

Short in gold until 8:35pm tonight. It's spiked up, I don't see so much in the way of geopolitical events right now to keep it high, and lots of US data out today to help strengthen the dollar. Out to the gym and for lunch so won't look at it.

Afraid I don't really see, sorry. The dotted line shows a level it traded at from 9pm the night before when the markets was closed, so it hardly makes a big level. There was no clear trend in the qqqs on Friday. The trend in nvidia was up when you say you shorted it. If the volume was OK then...

Why was it a clear bottom? Only after the event. And I did wait for confirmation. It came in the form of MACD on the 1 minute coming back down to the signal line. Waiting for confirmation caused me to get in later than I would have done otherwise, and after the price had come down a bit from...

It would be very hard to tell because there are so many things to keep track of that it's impossible to anyone else to see how they are being followed, and on what timeframe. Anyway my strategy now is: 1. Go with the trend 2. Have a catalyst 3. Look at volume 4. Look at MACD 5. Look at moving...

Because doing so is participating, not anticipating.

Easy to say that it's stupid when it doesn't work. It's not a great downtrend but bitcoin was in a clearer one. If you try to get everything lined up in your favour then you will just stare at the charts for hours and do nothing. You can always find a reason against any trade.

I entered Riot at 14:49 and got out at 15:20. Bitcoin was in a downward trend and had pulled back a bit, Riot was also in a downward trend and had pulled back with high volume which was then declining.

If you find a strategy that works and it's completely mechanistic then, sure, you can write some code and run it on past data to backtest it. But you say to listen to tradertv, and the other day you changed your strategy after you had a loss and started scalping. So neither of those is...
