DislikedDear Prosperfx,
I have read through the thread twice and have been sporadically demo trading the method. I believe it has merit. How much merit will depend on the trader's consistency, etc.---things we all know about. Boxing stochastics is simply a retracement system which uses short-term momentum within the context of longer-term momentum as its core indicator. Which I find interesting. And it gets more interesting, I believe, if you jibe two timeframes, as Moonchild has suggested in the past. But as with all discretionary systems, there are nuances to the indicator "look" which transcend the simple rules and hence require a good deal of self-training to get right. The question really becomes, does one have the persistence to look and look and look some more until not just the main rules are clear in your head but that the nuance issues have also been ironed out---which is, in the end, the only way to make the model your own.

If you follow blindly the signal you will have a very poor success rate ratio because you also have to look what the price is doing before taking a trade.
You can get a signal when there was a 68% pull back and a pull back in this pull back. In this kind of situation, there is big chance that the signal you got at the first place is invalidate and you are more in a reversal pattern.
Finaly, whatever strategy you use, it's all about price action...
The more i trade, the more i can read the chart without looking at the indicators.
ps : nice 2nd post by the way...
