The markets are open again folks. Good luck. Something for members to be aware of: attempts to access SHF through Tor or any other anonymous proxy are blocked for the security of the site. ----- Happy New Year everyone. ------------ Remember to download the latest updates to our favourite software i.e. HGI (viewtopic.php?p=105044#p105044), TDesk (posting.php?mode=reply&t=5522) and TDT (viewtopic.php?p=172361#p172361 ------------- For those of you new to all this, I remind you that Friday is the US Non-Farm Payroll news release. This happens on the first Friday in the month unless that happens also to be the first of the month, in which case it is moved to the second Friday. News releases are no longer the thingy of terror that they were a decade ago, but they can cause chaos in the markets. NFP is one of the bigger releases, at 1.30 PM :London time (12.30 UTC). It is up to you to work out what time this is where you live. Typically, the markets go to sleep in the hours leading up to the release of the NFP figures. Spreads widen dramatically. The actual news release sometimes triggers huge moves, albeit less often these days than a decade ago. My best advice to noobs is this: try to be out of the markets by about 12 hours before the release, and stay out until they reopen after the weekend. ------------ b]Official SHF broker[/b] No point in learning to trade like a master trader if your broker is bollocks, so I have decided to make more of a fuss about Afterprime for the benefit of all who can trade through them but have not yet elected to do so. Afterprime is SHF's 'Official broker'. Not just the 'Official' broker (cos we all know what a multitude of crimes this can cover) but my broker. I am happy that Afterprime continues to offer the transparent and honest service they advertise – it is the ONLY broker I trade with. Before you start trading you need to read this thread: “Why you should sign up with Afterprime” at viewtopic.php?p=175793#p175793 You can chat to the team at Afterprime on the LiveChat on their website. I remember every time I send a trade, what a breath of fresh air it is to know that I am trading with a genuine broker, not a 'market maker' or 'bucket shop' – and this is more than ten years after Jeremy & Co took over the running of Afterprime 's predecessor, Global Prime.. -------- VPS. I am running Eaymon's VPS. Absolutely fantastic. I cannot recommend it highly enough. At the time of writing, I am running 8 demo platforms and it has not missed a beat. Physical memory used = 47%. I have yet to catch CPU usage going over 40% and it is usually in the low teens, so plenty of juice left: http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 103&t=5282 -------- EA's that members are trading live and profitably These are the ones I know about. Contact me if yours should be in this exclusive group and I have missed it out. It will never be a large section. Before you use them there are a few points you MUST understand, grasp and learn to live by: 1) There is an unbreakable, unshakable and unavoidable rule of retail forex trading and it is this: if it can happen and it is bad for you, then it will happen, and probably sooner rather than later. 2) You will have losing days. 3) You will have losing weeks. 4) You will have losing months. 5) The only thing that matters is that the equity curve rises over a longer period of time than most of you possess the ability to concentrate for. 6) You need balls of steel to trade Forex. 2), 3) and 4) will sort you out rapidly if you are a wimp. 7) Never trade with funds you cannot afford to lose. You will be desperate to succeed and fear will cloud your judgement. Guess how I know? Guess why I am so relaxed about trading these days. Only a cretin trades with the pension pot or remortgages the house in order to do so.
Gold Mine Threads These are the threads that I am familiar with whose participants are consistently making profits.

The markets are open again folks. Good luck. Something for members to be aware of: attempts to access SHF through Tor or any other anonymous proxy are blocked for the security of the site. ----- Remember folks, that whilst the first Friday om the month is usually NFP day that this does no happen if the Friday is also the first day of the month. NFP will happen on the 8th March this year. In addition to last week, here is what I usually post at the start of each month: For those of you new to all this, I remind you that Friday is the US Non-Farm Payroll news release. This happens on the first Friday in the month unless that happens also to be the first of the month, in which case it is moved to the second Friday. News releases are no longer the thingy of terror that they were a decade ago, but they can cause chaos in the markets. NFP is one of the bigger releases, at 1.30 PM :London time (12.30 UTC). It is up to you to work out what time this is where you live. Typically, the markets go to sleep in the hours leading up to the release of the NFP figures. Spreads widen dramatically. The actual news release sometimes triggers huge moves, albeit less often these days than a decade ago. My best advice to noobs is this: try to be out of the markets by about 12 hours before the release, and stay out until they reopen after the weekend. ------------ b]Official SHF broker[/b] No point in learning to trade like a master trader if your broker is bollocks, so I have decided to make more of a fuss about Afterprime for the benefit of all who can trade through them but have not yet elected to do so. Afterprime is SHF's 'Official broker'. Not just the 'Official' broker (cos we all know what a multitude of crimes this can cover) but my broker. I am happy that Afterprime continues to offer the transparent and honest service they advertise – it is the ONLY broker I trade with. Before you start trading you need to read this thread: “Why you should sign up with Afterprime” at viewtopic.php?p=175793#p175793 You can chat to the team at Afterprime on the LiveChat on their website. I remember every time I send a trade, what a breath of fresh air it is to know that I am trading with a genuine broker, not a 'market maker' or 'bucket shop' – and this is more than ten years after Jeremy & Co took over the running of Afterprime 's predecessor, Global Prime.. -------- VPS. I am running Eaymon's VPS. Absolutely fantastic. I cannot recommend it highly enough. At the time of writing, I am running 8 demo platforms and it has not missed a beat. Physical memory used = 47%.

Contact me if yours should be in this exclusive group and I have missed it out. It will never be a large section. Before you use them there are a few points you MUST understand, grasp and learn to live by: 1) There is an unbreakable, unshakable and unavoidable rule of retail forex trading and it is this: if it can happen and it is bad for you, then it will happen, and probably sooner rather than later. 2) You will have losing days. 3) You will have losing weeks. 4) You will have losing months. 5) The only thing that matters is that the equity curve rises over a longer period of time than most of you possess the ability to concentrate for. 6) You need balls of steel to trade Forex. 2), 3) and 4) will sort you out rapidly if you are a wimp. 7) Never trade with funds you cannot afford to lose. You will be desperate to succeed and fear will cloud your judgement. Guess how I know? Guess why I am so relaxed about trading these days. Only a cretin trades with the pension pot or remortgages the house in order to do so.
