@maxinger I've been trading for quite some time, I'm no amateur. Maybe the way in which I post gives you that impression. Man, you guys on this forum are really spirited lol
I do ponder... when will thine boxing gloves fall yonder thy floor And speech of eloquence trickle ye tongue forthright and true Albeit save yoon verbal fisticuffs... --LeeTrades Original ET Poem
I'll take your advice and post more detailed charts Seems like it'll be more appreciated here at ET...?? Y'all gotta chill with the fisticuffs though. lol
I'm really chuckling heartedly right now This is wild to me Never have I encountered such gall so immediately It makes me think that this is the culture here
I presume your entry is indicated with an arrow. And your STOP is the orange line. It is far too wide/big. So you ended up with reward : risk ratio of only 1:1 which is bad. And since you are day trading CFD, chances of earning $$$ is zero because CFD bid-offer spread is more than a mile wide. I traded CFDs a few decades ago. Now I day trade futures.
You presumed incorrectly I trade Futures. This mark up is simply on the CFD using trading view. This data feed is the exact same as Futures without me having to view only NQZ4 in Tradovate because I also place trades in MT5 on an ECN broker. I need to see their feed as well as the one Tradovate gives -- You do know the advantage of an ECN broker right? Ok so I shouldn't have to explain spreads then... My trades are placed in NQ via Tradovate and MT5 via Tradingview by way of the broker. (I'm not going to get into why I have two different accounts and why I do this -- it's irrelevant to this conversation - so don't ask or comment - mind your own business ) And how do you presume my stop is the orange line when my risk/reward box is plainly there to see? I earned a 1:2 on that trade. That should make sense to you now by way of the explanation I just gave, one in which I didn't need to give but your "presumption" needed to be corrected promptly so that you don't get ahead of yourself. On top of that if you were reading the thread you'd know that I trade Futures with a history trading forex as well. What say you presume now?
