thanks, it\'s minimalist. I got rid of most plugins so people can concentrate more on the articles while they are loading faster :)

the difference between 1/3 and 3/10 is negligible (33% vs 30%) in this case.
We're not doing rocket science here, just showing an example using round numbers so it's easier to understand.

instead of giving up I prefer to take breaks when things either go bad or I don't have time to focus on trading. But to be frank I'd definitely sell a course myself if I'd be good at finding and documenting some trading methods :p

Regarding EURUSD: I think that selling below 1.2965 at this stage is not the best option because the decline from 1.37 was quite strong, and strong corrections are quite common during/after strong declines. If 1.3050 remains intact after this recovery, given it is a minor resistance, that would be a confirmation that the "strong decline" is still active and 1.2965 would be breached easily -> selling on the breakdown becoming a good plan.

Hi Demax

It's a bit of misunderstanding - tradingview is only a charting platform, not a trading platform. You can't place any trades through it, just watch the charts and use the technical analysis tools.
So it's no big problem if it disconnects sometimes.

thanks for your comment.

It's been over-debated whether taking a very, very bad trading system and trading the opposite would turn it into a profitable one. At first sight, yes. But the answer is "no". A "mirrored" bad system won't become a good one for the reason that trading results can't be only "right" or "wrong".

It's not the same as tossing a coin. There's a huge number of possible outcomes between "right" and "wrong" caused by price behavior during a specific time-frame. So, basically, if one trades the opposite way of a "bad" system could easily result in even worse results. That's turning the bad into worse. Or one could have slightly better results, but still far from profitable.

This can be illustrated using a trading platform backtesting features (such as MT4's), where you can inverse the buy and sell triggers of an expert advisor and see what happens.
The major problem with using several indicators (such as the 50% ones I mentioned in the article) is that they will miss most opportunities and only catch one every now and then. The more indicators you have,the more likelihood there will be to miss many good signals generated by each of those indicators (or only by the main one if others are used as "filters")
