Most of the large JPY moves (indicating extreme JPY strength or weakness) seem to be accompanied by corresponding extreme USD strength or weakness. Rather than attempting to incorporate the USDJPY into the mix, why not simply use the USD (strength / ...

A solution to the endless reversing may be to take profit at pre-determined levels based upon historical moves away from the channel. You could use the close of the bar that coincides with the white line break of the channel, or the high/low of that ...

Initial Stops and Targets — I understand the setup and the entry signal. But where is the initial stop and the target for these trades?

FMS, As I understand the system, you only trade the first 4 hour bar of the week, not every day. So that's one trade per week.

Regardless of the the long trades that were filled, it appears as if that was not a valid trade. I for one did not account for the spread. Now I know. This means that the short trade is valid. I just stumbled upon this system yesterday. From what I ...

I was also filled going long GJ at 156.81 (FXDD). It was a nasty retracement, but I feel pretty good about it now. Looks like its going to make another run at breaking out of the top side of the box.

Trailing Stops — Nice thread, great trading method. How do you all handle the trailing stops on the runners? Do move it up/down with each successive DIBS trade that comes along (assuming its in the same direction)? Slade

So then we are in agreement? You caved in pretty quickly. And by the way...I would be VERY surprised if any trader became the best trader in the world (or even just a great trader) during the course of his or her life time. The odds are ...

I did not use the word "easy." That was your word. And yes, this is not a new idea, and it has been around since trading started. How do you think alot of retail forex brokers make money (besides collecting spreads)? Take the opposite side of ...

The Worst EA — Harooki, What might even work better than a bad EA is a bad trader. Think about it. If you could sit down next to the worlds worst trader (who would trade on a demo account) and do the exact opposite of what he/she does (on a ...

ForexFlash, Thanks for all the great indies. I have only one suggestion. Change the dark blue to green (and red to orange) on your heatmap indi, like Orests 1.14 indi. The contrast is easier to see against the background. Slade

T101, this is a very disturbing development. I hope you can get to the bottom of what happened, though I am not optimistic either that it will be resolved in your favor given the way most brokers operate. I am seriously considering just moving into ...

It was an all out reversal from SHORT (Strong) to LONG strong on Orest 1.14, which started with the smallest time frames and worked its way up through all recent time frames I was looking at - 30M, 1H, 2, 4, 12, starting at about 11:45pm EST on ...

Even if the brokers started countering an all out 14 pair buy/sell basket, it doesn't seem like they can stop you from scaling into a basket trade. Maybe you wont be able to load the boat with all the pairs, but if you can get the major gainers from ...

Bravo! I knew you were riding this one too T101. I am still in the trade myself. Topped out at around 1500 pips, but now back down to 1100. DarkSoul, why dont you use T101's Protect Profit EA? There are also some other EA's on the various T101 ...

What an amazing day to go LONG the basket. The EUR, GBP, NZD and AUD group have dominated JPY, USD, and CHF since the London session started today. I am already up a bunch of pips and locked on to the first 500 and I got in late. Some of you guys ...

So T101 goes home and everybody else leaves the sandbox too? Whats up with that? Slade

Looks like I missed out on a huge LONG basket trade over the past couple of hours. Did anybody catch that? I have to say that I am still biased in favor of following the direction of the longer time frames and have not developed a good method for ...

Relative Strength — I shorted the basket at 11:21 EST. In the course of 30 minutes, my account was up over 900 pips, but it was a roller coaster ride in the beginning. As always, the question is where and when to get out. I am still in demo ...

Charvo, Your observations are a good addendum to my post about the ES contract and the basket. I did not mean to suggest that there was a perfect correlation between the two. But even if there were, it still would not amount to a holy grail ...
