Ok, thanks for clarifying a bit and for the new version. I will give it one more try. As for the problem I reported (not closing a a positive trade that went up to 65 pips and then retraced back to negative) could that be related to a temporary ...

Just posting this one to keep the thread alive and to point out once again how good this strategy is, if there was still need. I decided to close as the price didn 't shoot up through the high of the day. I'm a bit puzzled as to why nobody ever ...

UPDATE: That EU trade, after going up to 65 pips, went back to negative territory, then recovered a bit and at this moment is at -3. So definitely something is wrong. I see in the journal there was a disconnection at some point (that happens ...

Hi QuickPilot. I will refer you to page 166-167. Look for the posts where I ask George some questions. Also for a more detailed idea start from George's 1st post on page 164.

Finally, after one more b/e, I managed a decent one. I set up SL, b/e and TP and went out for a run. A bit of luck comes handy from time to time

Well, today I have collected a lot of b/e trades. So on this one I decided I would not let it go below 10 pips profit and here I am out

Here I am nagging you with a TM question, George, hahaha! Out of curiosity and aware it would depend on different factors, but how would you have generically managed that 2nd entry? I moved the stop loss to b/e + commission when it touched 5-6 pips. ...

Hi forexvmanvn. Thanks for sharing. Let me point out in advance I'm not a big fan of EAs and only have little basic experience with them. Just for fun I decided to try it on a demo account of about 5K that I had lying on my PC. I'm not using a VPS ...

George, I'm ever so grateful for your quick replies, but please there's no need to get distracted and miss good trades on my account. I feel guilty now.

...and again, similar situation. Reentered at BO of M30 but it was going nowhere and closed 18 min later. Then, I thought 3rd time was a charm, but no luck. Some kind of news must have happened suddenly and I got burnt. Never mind; that's what stops ...

George, please forgive me as I surely am overloading this thread and nagging you with questions... I would like to try and get as close as possible to your mental process. I closed this trade at b/e after 34 bars that it was going nowhere, although ...

Itchy finger! I closed at the BRN because Maddash was showing a retrace which was in contrast with the PA pushing up (bars had consequent higher lows). I could have squeezed in a few more pips but looking at the retrace now, I'm not complaining. I'd ...

Way to go! I like it when you show your trades. I've learnt a lot from them; as they say: "a picture is worth a thousand words!". If you don't mind, keep them coming from time to time, please, including the losing ones as they are as much valuable ...

Showing this other one. I clicked a bit too early when GBP was not fully green but I was stalking the move. I closed at the round number; although the stop had been moved to b/e, the price was nervously moving like some kind of news was happening ...

Hey George, am I getting it right? I'm showing what Maddash was looking like when the 3rd trade was taken. Unfortunately I closed it by mistake and while I'm typing it has already travelled double. Anyway not complaining... I didn't believe it would ...

That's exactly what I meant. So basically you might enter both on a pullback (before M30 breakout) or after price breaks out M30, as long as the Maddash first M1 column realignes with the others (i.e. the divergence disappears). I hope I read it ...

Thanks for your quick reply, George. I am aware of post #4 but I was actually referring to post #3,275 as your most recent mention to M1 trading, where your entries appear to happen at the breakout of the previous M30 candles and not when the price ...

George, just to clarify: still referring to the M1 strategy that you have brought forward lately, do you only look at the movements of Maddash on M1,M1,M5,M15 set up your way? I also have a side chart with M1,M5,M15,M30,H1 set up with 35 MA for ...

A further question if you don't mind, George. For this M1 strategy are you also using Maddy by any chance or you just stick to the original as in your screenshots? I am doing well with just Maddash, but I'm wondering just in case the chances of ...
