    Fed leaks information, Feds go after the recipient.

    This is actually pretty funny. Not that the Fed doesn't leak like a sieve, but at least they have to make a show of it when someone actually printed it in a newsletter. At the same time, it was actually put in a newsletter, so Medley actually has a pretty good defense. Still, it's Kabuki...

    After 5 years, it might finally be Showtime for Grexit

    http://www.marketwatch.com/story/eurozone-finance-ministers-reject-greek-request-for-one-month-bailout-extension-2015-06-27 Though my "hopes" aren't quite up yet. Considering some form of straight default should have happened 5 years ago, it's not like this has been a process that's gone...

    Old ICT Torrent Files, Direct Download

    ADMIN EDIT: The links have been broken for a while now and I don't believe SQA plans to repost them. So I finally completed this little project: All of ICT's work in the Old Torrent, available via direct links. This should save quite a few people a lot of headaches. Plus it's a lot easier to...

    Princes of the Yen - Documentary

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5Ac7ap_MAY Came across this one while checking the Alt-Market News. (I check both; everyone is selling a view, so you can at least notice what everyone is either talking about or not talking about) Pretty decent, if long, documentary. But, like most bits of...

    ICT Forexmas 2014 / Market Maker Series

    Welp, I figured I'd strike early to start a new thread on it, since the other has stretched out several months longer than anticipated. Release is still "set" for Dec 25th @ 5 am EST. We'll see how it goes. Efforts to find the files early, off ICT's website, have so far been in vain. :-X...

    Risk Management saves the lives...of other people

    While she's pretty much just a serial killer, the topic name was just too much to pass up. ;) http://the-japan-news.com/news/article/0001736422 For those that don't know Yen conversions, she "inherited" roughly $10 Million USD over 10 years. Blew most of it in the market.

    FX Rigging by Major Banks &/Or This seems like the small fries

    http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2014-11-12/how-rig-fx-pro-bandit-and-make-millions-process With what they set the computers to do on some of the Central Bank news releases, this seems like significantly small peanuts.

    Typing Out Aloud: Japan, the Yen and the "Coming" collapse

    Obviously, I'm typing this up on the back of the Bank of Japan's further Quantitative Easing this past Friday, but it got me thinking about what modern Central Banking is taking shape as, which produced a thought: While we know that a Central Bank's interest aligns with itself and the other...

    Sqa's Stage 1 Trading Journal

    This is Stage 1. I've been attempting to type my thoughts up on this, for the FXGears' crowd, for several days. I think this is the type of Journal that Jack really wants: this is focused as much on Psychology as the technicals of trading. So, some background to start: - This will be mostly...

    Welcome! This is SQA's guide to Michael J. Huddleston's mentoring & teaching work. Commonly just known as "ICT" or "The Inner Circle Trader". The point of this guide is straight forward: ICT has produced at least 200 hours of video & commentary on market education & insight. As a result...

    Picking a Pair: Discussion on the ICT Teaching

    I want to append an outline for this to the Intro Guide, but that thread loads a bit too much. ;) Anyway, a classic ICT maxim is to learn 1 pair, and, normally, just trade that. It's a good place to start for more traders. There's a lot of good reasoning behind choosing just 1 pair, but I...

    VPS?

    I'm in the slow process of laying out my full technical setup for real trading, and I notice a lot of brokers offer "free" or discounted VPS services (on contract with a company). Now, I do not and will not be running an EA, so most of the utility I perceive from a VPS goes away. However, I...

    MT4 & Too Big of a Screen Resolution

    This is probably as much as a constant reminder to myself, but I'm sure someone else starting out might find this point helpful. On the MT4 Tool Bar, there is a "Chart Shift" button. This allows you to move the Leading Edge of the Chart off of the side. When you have a 1920x1080 resolution or...

    How do you account for severe Political Issues in trading?

    Since I'm very new to Forex Trading at this point, I'm curious about this. First note, I pray Ukraine doesn't descend into Civil War. However, that's a huge possibility over the next few weeks. This would be the first war in Europe since the Balkans and risks a major effect on European...
