I'm "Hedger" Swing Trader. )

[The Dealer]

I am a discretionary trader with mechanical stops as I like to make decision on my own. I place about 2-3 trades a day with open position varies from few minutes up to 2-3 days.

I think that's a different poll, Trevman!

Funny, though

I am always in the market trader, I use different type of strategies, usually I start with 2.5% as a position size, at 20:1 leverage, I adds units if its required, I take into consideration to go with positive interest rate; I mainly trade AUD/JPY, also EUR/USD sometimes. When the trend is down, and I have to be short in AUD/JPY (I pay interest rate); in this case my trade is a kind of scalping, I don’t wait much, I targeted 4-15 pips, but when the trend is up; I might stay for days; some times even weeks (Swing- Position Trader).
I am now also considering to adopt buy and hold Trader strategy.

Im an AUTO-TRADER!!!

Finally developed an autotrading system.
The system uses the following components.

1/ Amibroker - Multiple timeframe strategies are coded into this.
2/ FXAsia live account feeding data into Amibroker via DDE
3/ Amibroker signals are passed to a custom VB6 program via WinXP clipboard!
4/ VB6 program passes orders to HyperOrder
5/ HyperOrder passes orders to Metatrader for execution

Sounds complicated but it works!

I run a combination of stragegies. Both trend and daytrade.

Update 2/June/2005 - Well HyperOrder has fallen apart. It keeps
freezing up and trades are not closed.

I've had much more success with Metatrader. I still have multiple timeframe
strategies tested in AmiBroker, then forward tested in Metatrader.
At the moment this is the only way forward that I can see.

I am day trader. I trade for three or four hours. I some times like to scalp. Some times like to swing my trades. I think no one have only on type of trading because the market is diffrent every day. I wish good luck to all. And I wish to all not to be Lossing traders.
Coder this idea with automathic trading sounds good what profit make this sistem a week? Good luck.
