外汇中的 PTT 方法（盈利趋势交易） (PTT Method (Profitable Trend Trading) in)

Greetings,

Introduction:

I have been a lurker on Forex Factory for many years, but just have not posted much as I’ve not wanted to dump a trading system on the forum, that may or may not be profitable, without being able to include all aspects of trading: philosophy, methodology, money management. All the while I have been reading, testing various systems, and learning all that I could.

In this thread I plan to share some things that I’ve learned over the years and then I will provide the system that I am just now starting to trade live. By the way, I only backtest and then trade live, I do not demo. There are two reasons for this; first, demo trading and live trading are different. There are emotions involved with real money that don’t exist on demo. Second, using Oanda I can trade “live” with literally 1 unit, which is one/one hundredth of a penny per pip. That means a loss of 1000 pips would be a loss of $1.00 (one dollar).

One final bit of housekeeping here in the introduction:

I have nothing to sell, nothing to promote and profit off of, absolutely no way to take your money in anything I post. While I do recommend some resources, these are simply books and threads that have helped me; I in no way profit off of any resource I recommend.

The above stems from my detestation of some threads that started out as helpful threads but over the months and years had to be moved to the commercial section because, as it turns out, the originator of the thread had something to sell or promote and profit from. I have neither. Nor will I ever. I simply do not believe in paying, or charging, for any kind of trading education. Others disagree with me, and that’s fine, but I’m simply saying that, for me, I will never attempt to sell or promote anything that I could profit off of, in any way.

So my posts will go as following:

Second Post: Overall philosophy.

This is the most important post. It is very important to understand the philosophy of trading before even examining the methodology (or system) of trading. The methodology of trading should flow out of your philosophy of trading.

Third Post: Methodology.

Just as the Apostle Paul set forth theology first and then the practical outworking, or the practical application of that theology, so my second post will provide a working methodology that meets the requirements of a good system, according to our philosophy set forth in the preceding post.

Fourth Post: Resources.

Here I will recommend the books that have changed my trading life, as well as various threads here on Forex Factory, and will even include one amazing You Tube video, from the greatest trend trader who has ever lived, that summarizes the philosophy and methodology of trading very well.

So let’s move on to the second post.
