You are absolutely right in that forex is a different animal. Your approach is fantastic actually. My only question is this. Let's say this method was your only trading method. On the months you lose, then what? I realize this isn't your only ...

oh ok. I didn't think that mt4 allowed you to do that, which is probably what most people use, but I didn't know if an update happened and it now lets you.

what broker? What is the software?

I did this early on in my trading career with a system that only ever failed 2 times in a row over a span of 3 years, 2 in backtesting and 1 demo. Most of the time (in my experience) when you finally go live on a system, it seems to do the worse ...

no problem. I just started following this thread so I haven't read the prior discussions yet. I've been through it all before regarding chart differences.

LG uses FXDD whose daily close is at 5pm est (I think). IBFX day starts at 7pm est. If you want to follow along with her, start your 4 hour breakout 2 candles prior on IBFX.

yes, it only happened on ibfx. I was in long EJ. My tp was hit, but it was so fast that they both closed at the pre/post price, therfore I took a loss, but the email they sent me said as a good gesture they would credit the loss, but in the risk ...

Steve, I am glad your son is doing ok and you got him back home safely. I can't imagine how you felt at the time. Nothing but well wishes for you and your family in the future. Good luck on your new system. I am doing some daily and weekly trading ...

Hey Viking, would a usdjpy short be in play once it gets below the "wall"? Or is the laguerre line too low now?

eurusd and eurchf 1hr — So here is the eur and eurchf 1hr charts... Am I seeing that that eurusd is making a new high now while eurchf is not? Therefore according to your rules we would sell eurchf? I guess assuming today doesn't gap or ...

oops sorry I have little money great thanks.. fixed.

sorry guys, I have to get caught up and entering my numbers in the spreadsheet, etc.. was a rough week last week.

Here is a screenshot of the chf pair. Look under the USDCHF H1 words... maybe that is causing a problem. image

Sorry bill that is what I meant. I used that template and ALL USD pair, but it still doesn't work. I put it on usd/chf 1hr and the line chart shows like yours but the chf isn't inverted. It has the red vertical lines that you added, but no eurusd ...

hey bill I can't get the chf to invert... using ibfx as well. Am I missing something? How are you getting both pair on the same chart or are you overlaying them on something else?

They appear to be valid to me... As far as timing just be consistent I suppose.

It must be a forex factory problem. I have winzip 11.2 here at work purchased of course and it does not open it either..

I am at work now where we have winzip 11.2 and it does not open your attachment either. It says cannot open file. Files do not appear to be valid archives....

Hey guys, been sick since end of last week and just now feeling a little better... Will try to get back into this tonight. Last email I got with an update was a early last week. Wolf, do I need to have winzip to open up winzip files? I can't get any ...
