Bummer — Looks like I'll have to go into the weekend down in the following pairs: GBPUSD/GBPCHF GBPJPY/USDJPY USDJPY/EURJPY USDJPY/EURCHF How depressing!

I use Oanda. you have to open a subaccount to hedge, but it's easy, and you can have as many subaccounts as you want.

I opened most of my current trades early Tuesday morning and it's getting ugly. I probably jumped in a bit too early on a couple of sets, and probably jumped in on too many sets simultaneously. I'm nervous to average in any more positions...

Is anybody else having trouble this week? I'm getting clobbered across the board.

How's everybody doing? — How's it going for everybody? I've been in 4 sets of trades since yesterday, waiting for the lines to come back together. These are the currencies I'm in specifically: GBPUSD/GBPCHF GBPJPY/USDJPY USDJPY/EURJPY ...

Alright, I got a ton of PM's, so I'll just post it here. The source code and MSI installer are attached. 1. Again, I have no intentions of supporting or enhancing this application. The code is included, fix and enhance it yourself! 2. This code is ...

Hey all, glad to see this thread is still going! I started trading this system 2 or 3 months ago with excellent results... with one exception. And I'd like to warn everybody about my mistake: don't average yourself in too quickly. I got caught up on ...

Would it be possible for you to post all of your trades next week? I've done well, but you're doing better!

I also use DailyFX. I change the Settings to show 300 30-min bars. But that's arbitrary, seems to work well.

I've tried systems before where I refuse to close at a loss. They never end well. I prefer to have a specific close event in mind, with this system, when the lines cross. If I'm not profitable when they cross, then I take a loss. But, like you said, ...

Nah, I've had some losers. The trade I'm currently in (since last Thursday) will be a big loss. I'm holding on for the lines to cross again, although once they do I'm sure I'll still be in the red. Prior to my current trades I had only lost once or ...

I've taken a very similiar approach, but I was completely averaged in by Monday of this week - Leaving a full four days of tears and drawdown! When did you start phasing in to Euro/Cable?
- girdle66 replied Aug 28, 2009
Thanks for the list. I'm glad to hear you made some money on the recent Euro&Cable splits. I've had a rough stretch. They split last thursday and continued splitting until yesterday, that's the longest run I'd seen yet - serious DD. How did you ...

Dreamliner, can you please let everybody know what pairs you've used with this system? I know you've mentioned some, but I'd like to know which ones you watch regularly.
- girdle66 replied Aug 27, 2009
I'm in that same trade, have been for a week now. EUR/GBP is finally trending, that's why they've been apart for so long.
- girdle66 replied Aug 20, 2009
Me too, same as day 1. I've had a trade or two over the past 3 months that I've had to exit with a loss, but that was when I was intentionally being too aggressive with the system. Since then I've tamed down a bit, and not gone in with too much too ...
- girdle66 replied Jul 26, 2009
Yes, I'm using the Daily FX charts. I use the 30M timeframe with Euro and Cable only. I know this system can work with other pairs too, I just don't have the time to watch any more. Also, these pairs are considerably less jumpy than others, and that ...

First of all: we seem to be using almost the exact same trading strategy. We use different pairs and maybe slightly different entries and exists, but for the most part we're doing the exact same thing. Does this require a seperate thread? Secondly: ...

Sorry, I said I'd post charts this week and I didn't. Attached is a spreadsheet with all my trading activity this week. I had to calculate all of the PL by hand, so feel free to double check it. Thanks

I traded similiarly today. I made my first entry at roughly the same time as you did, and made a second entry later in the morning when I saw the two pairs move opposite for a short time. I trust that you were profitable as well? I closed all orders ...
