I hope you are/were short from 5580...

Nice to know I'm not blind I guess. I missed the fill the first time around, and got eaten the second time it came back. I didn't like how price couldn't stay in positive territory for very long and thought about getting out, but I stayed in ...

I was in this from 0800 EST exactly but just got out. Lack of direction on M15, price bouncing between levels on H1, and possible E10 constrainment on M15. I will short G/U again if it scoops down with E10 on M15, breaking the lows of the past hour ...

Two trades so far this morning. Both shown on 15m chart. C&C welcome. First was a winner: saw confluence on H1 of the E50 + RN + previous wick + ~50% retrace on M15 of the last big move + scoop up H4 E10, so I entered. Limit order was the blue box, ...

G/U H1 S35 constrainment? H1 is trapped between the MAs, and M15 is MA soup
- cosgrove replied Sep 2, 2011
Two bar pullback to 10EMA on G/U. Missed being filled by 0.5p on the first bar (limit price was MA level at the open of the bar). If it had filled, trade would have stopped out at BE. edit: second trade added. tried a "scoop down" of sorts. Price ...

G/U M15 E10 constrainment. If this bar closes tiny like it is now, I'll be long with a 12p stop. edit: bah, looks shitty when you take H1 and H4 into account. I will take it on micro account -- haven't taken constrainment live yet. edit2: updated ...

Finally moved my stop up on both positions to +6, which would result in the same profit as one hitting TP, moving the stop on the other to BE, and it being hit, because I was sick of waiting through the lunch doldrums. SL hit, shenanigans attached. ...

Nice one! I got up late and missed it. "Them's the breaks" for this H1 10 touch (trade shown on M5 for detail, but signal was H1) edit: M15 chart added

I hate to ask, but I searched the thread and only found one other person that mentioned problems with the simulator. I've often used the idea of visual mode to replay bars, but the scripts are a new concept to me. Unfortunately they don't seem to ...

H1 Scoop? Confluence with M15 E50. edit: added M15 chart. Will take M15 10 touch if the two bar rule can hold.

It was not in the timeframe that I mentioned in the quote, because I snoozed for a bit and forgot to cancel the orders. Woke up and closed out the second half ~15m before news.
- cosgrove replied Aug 17, 2011
Closed second half ~15 mins before news release at previous H1 wick for +50.

Very sad to see. Max Favorable Excursion was +67. There is talk that the SNB is causing the jump in EUR/CHF right now, which no doubt affected EUR/USD. I am not blaming the SNB for this trade not working out... I think that's the wrong attitude to ...

Oh well. Anyone still in, beware BOJ press conference.

Slept through this entry edit: +100 hit. more alarm clock investment needed. edit2: +160 hit and maybe still tanking.
- cosgrove replied Jul 20, 2011
Was getting pretty excited. I imagine if that entry had been the top for the day, price would have easily gone 100+ pips.

Well that sure was a rush for some reason. Take a look at R ( url ). It handles lots of data very easily. I am still working on loading Oanda tick data into it though... just not working very hard

Hi HXCJF, I've coded up the UJ system described in your DOC file, and I'm not seeing the same results as the "UJ weekly 1hr" tab in the XLS file you released. I'm backtesting with MT4 "history center" 1 minute data going back to 2006 with 90% ...

Update! I'm now trading this system live, every day. I'm taking trades occurring between 1AM and 12PM (noon) Eastern time, and I'm using 75% of the 2x ATR for my SL, 100% of the 2x ATR for my TP. 2.25% of account lost on a loss, 3% of account won on ...
