GOLD GC COMEX
75% of the currently held gold has been produced since 1910, two-thirds since 1950. South Africa has been the source of much of the world’s gold reserves and about 22% of the currently accounted for gold comes from South Africa. In 2020, China was the world’s leading gold producer, followed in order by Australia, the USA, Canada and Ghana. Consumption of the world’s produced gold is about 50% in jewellery, 40% in investment and 10% in industry. The price of gold is determined by trading in the gold and derivatives market, but a procedure known as gold fixing in London, which began in September 1919, provides a daily benchmark price…

TIPS and TRICKS: time market map
For profitable trading it will be advisable to make trades at the moments of trading session when strong price movement is the most probable, and those periods when market is weak or is in sideways movement, exclude trading operations. After the first study of market tendencies one might think that it is almost impossible to determine in advance in which periods the market is more dynamic. It is worth to mark out the times when important news and reports are released. Take an economic calendar to determine the exact time of news releases. My research was carried out, the main task was to identify the periods of trading session with higher volatility and…

How much time does it take to have consistently positive trading results?
In 2005, the Applied Cognitive Psychology journal presented the results of a study of variables that predict the skill levels of chess players. It turned out that the most powerful factor in skill is time. High-level chess players spent five times as long as intermediate-level chess players. Swedish psychologist Anders Eriksson has identified the “10,000 hour rule”. Ericsson has done research among music professionals. He divided them into three groups – stars, professionals and amateurs. He then conducted a survey among them asking the participants how much time they spent training. Almost all of them started to create music when they were kids. But over the years, the time each…

Merely being unconventional in one’s approach improves one’s chances of success
Many of us traders have tried to find their own very best unique trading system hoping that it’s authentic enough to help us win most of the trades. When trying to find our “holy grail” we are thinking that other trader’s won’t be able to do as good as we can. However, only an understanding of underlying market drivers, or at least the chart patterns they produce, can provide any kind of edge. Whether that is ‘conventional’ or ‘unconventional’ is moot. TA provides a window into HOW price has behaved, but it doesn’t explain WHY, and to whatever extent it fails to measure either ‘fair value’ or current sentiment, its…

Inverting the signals in a losing strategy must necessarily make it a winning one.
Any strategy that fails to exploit a real market inefficiency is effectively generating random signals. Inverting a random signal generator will only create yet another random signal generator, which will, therefore, be equally ineffective. Why is it? Transaction costs (spread, commission, slippage, swap, etc). These accumulate over time, making both win smaller and losses bigger. Like Jen says, the shorter your trading horizon, and the more frequently you trade, the greater the relative impact that these have. Many traders greatly underestimate their effect. Slippage never operates in your favor, but can have a severely destructive effect during market crashes or ‘black swans’. Statistical fluctuation. If your strategy doesn’t exploit a…
