Finding the trend

Quoting RiskFighter
So there have been a lot of talk on this thread that was out of the subject. Fine, I am happy when people are talking. But the purpose of this thread is to have a wise guess of the trend direction and which pairs are trending the most. If you can guess which way the pairs will trend - on beforehand, then any strategy will make you money. I like to trade a batch of the Forex pairs. But it is hard to analyze all 28 pairs, so this is a way to make a short cut and remove pairs that are not trending even before I begin my analysis. So this is my latest...
Hello RiskFighter. Good job !

Hi RiskFighter, I like that handle as we should all be risk fighters. Do you consider the %R to be somewhat of a leading indicator? How has results been so far using the method as you described? Best of trades to you, my friend. _____________________________________________________________________
Hello Ace

%R is an excellent indicator. But I am not using it right now. I had a period where it did not give the expected benefit. But still fine as a confluence tool.

You should visit the Squeeze strategy by Machine Learn. I am using that for now. Very interesting.

Hi RiskFighter,

Thank you for your response. I will take a look at the Squeeze strategy. Thak you.
The batch setup right now. All blue and maroon coloured instruments has the three MA's aligned and the last value of each MA is trending.

I use H4 as the batch is trading on M15. So at next H4 bar I will update the batch.

I am forward testing 3 robots using this batch setup. Is this method any good? I don't know. Just testing.

Can you please remove the pink one and green one, letting only blue and maroon. I think this way will be easier to focus on the right pairs.

Many thanks.

I do just click the close down button on those. It takes only 15 seconds to close down 5 to 10 charts.

This morning chasing the setup.

1st. screen is the CrystalBowl showing status on all the instruments that I trade.

2nd. screen is when I have closed the pink and the green charts. Now I know which pairs have the 3 MA's aligned at H4 and with the latest price in a still trending position. But from here you must make your normal analyzis. This is only a help to quickly remove obviously not trending instruments.

3rd. screen is a chart that I would not trade today even if the MA's are aligned at this very moment.

Here is another use. I trade the M15. Having this screen open I can in a glance see which pairs are not trending.

Are you trading only pairs with EUR or GBP? Then the second screen is for you.

Nice trade on AUDCHF. Two timeframes aligned make trading easier. CrystalBall is great.

I find the Crystal Bowl very usefull. Only thing is, it is a little time consuming because I like to see the status on the MA's on several timeframes. (Top/Down analysis).

Then it´s nice to be a coder, because you can make anything you like. So, I have made this tool MultiTimeFrame. In one glance you get the statur on all timeframes from M1 to Daily.

It is on test right now and I have smart ideas to incorporate, so the release will be sometime later.

Subscribe to my profile, then you will get a notice when it is released.

At this chart the MA's are aligned nicely upward on all the timeframes. All arrows are pointing up. Here is a lot of nice trades waiting on the lower timeframes.
