Sorry to be MIA, all. Been busy. mikejody, yep, I've considered using the opposing extreme as an entry too... In visual backtests I've seen it result in what looked like good trades... but until I get some more foreward-testing experience on the ...

Thanks for all the replies and input, folks. Been tied up and not able to respond, but I hope to soon. One quick one: Cisco, 'swaps' are the interest that brokers charge you if you hold from one day to another. I believe most charge this interest at ...

results, week 1 — If I can ever find the time, I'll build a custom backtester for this strategy. For now, I'll post my results as they come in... probably in week intervals, or thereabouts. So, for the past seven days of trading (no trading on ...

For those who are interested, I've started a thread that gives more details of the system I mentioned previously in this thread: http://www.forexfactory.com/forexforum/showthread.php?p=113402

OK, so an example from a few days ago... A buy signal developed on the USDCAD on 10/02/2006. Note that my AO_Fozzy_BT indicator is built to show you a green spike on the day you should place orders. So, basically that green spike on 10/02/2006 is ...

entries / SLs / TPs and indicator files — Thie following is a near word-for-word post of a post I submitted in the thread on Fozzy's Daily trading system. It gives more detail on how I set entry, SL, and TP levels in the system. I've also ...

yep tragapips, that's the basic idea... I'll try to find the time to get some more visual examples posted, probably in a new thread, and then post the link to the new thread here.

Not to muddy the waters with different approaches, but I thought I'd throw out the method I've been forwarding testing. There haven't been enough trades yet to determine whether its an improvement or not, but I did a manual backtest from the start ...

My AO_Fozzy* indicators allow for controlling band deviation. I assume you want to control MA type on the RSI, not the middle BB line? Please clarify, and I should be able to do this for you.

Oops... forgot the BT version that gives signals for all trades.... attached.

The attached indicator should do it for you, BeachBum... Enjoy.

You know, the strange thing is that I set the the BB to compute on the straight RSI (instead of its MA), and the results looked totally different than those produced in the earlier template. When I switched it over to the RSI-MA (smoothed RSI), the ...

good idea — Definitely a good idea, jlowder. I'm still cutting my teeth with MQL4, and haven't yet attempted to build such an indicator yet. I've seen them though, and know they exist... now if I can just find the time. -miscon777

Fozzy and Risk to Reward Ratio — The one big issue I'm seeing with this system is the lack of focus on risk to reward ratio - by no means is this a dis on Fozzy or the system, which I already have stated seems quite promising... but R:R is a ...

indicators attached — Great thread... been testing various daily trading systems since I got a day job, and this one looks to have some good potential. I've attached a zip with three indicators I built for this system: AO_Fozzy shows the same ...

Thanks for the feedback, folks. Phil - I read about Monte Carlo analysis on adaptrade.com shortly after posting this, and managed to make the connection between what I had said / asked there and what MC analysis is all about. Naturally, I was pretty ...

Geez, I get busy for an afternoon and come back to find THIS! Heheh. Anyway, look fellas, everyone's got to keep in mind that forum postings, like emails, can be very easily misinterpretted or misread. That's why its important to over-explain ...

fixed fractional spreadsheet — Adaptrade looks brilliant... haven't started the demo yet, but the articles alone are excellent - looks like just about everything you could want to know about money management, all in one place. Decided to play ...

Minute: yes, with the 1:100 that was assumed, each pip is worth $10... but there is a column called '100s of pips' in the spreadsheet that shows actual pip amounts instead of dollars... and its that column that gets charted along with % success. ...
