Here's the deal...
I've been trading on a FXGame Acc for 2 months, and I think i might have found a strategy that is pretty ok. I simply short when the market is overought ( above RSI 75) and long when the market is oversold ( below RSI 25).
Depending on the timeframe, i set TP of 5-7 pips on a 5 min timeframe, 10-12 on 15 min, and someimes 3-4 on 1 min. I've been doing this on EUR/USD. since it was going too well i decided...what the hack i'll do it on other pairs as well!! yay!
And i did it on my real acc with Usd/Ypj....tis morning 7:30 Europe time. BUT, the Yjp couldnt stop rising although it was oversold till RSI+90!! so my question is, to you who trade that pair...is that normal?
ofc my SL got hit and i lost 1/20 of my sub-training account, wich i use still instead of Game acc, to get used to the money...
Besides that, any1 else usuing a similar strategy? does it work for you?
Thx in advance.
I might not know, I might not have the money, but remember, I have TIME!

You have just discovered the inherent weakness of oscillators. Consider it an object lesson. Now it's time to move on the next lesson. How to deal with this specific problem? This is a natural part of the learning curve.

yeah i have learned that, but i have learned as well not to trade USD/YPJ till i understand profoundly the movement of that market...
The same system seems not to work with different markets....
