I will be posting real-time trades here from time to time and at http://www.stocktwits.com/u/stephanusR where many trades were given on Euro(fiber) and SP500. http://www.twitter.com/StephanusR will be used to indicate a pending trade before posting a real-time trade to stocktwits and forexfactory.

The market follows the 60-30-10% rule: 60% in a trending range which we have see the last two weeks on the Dow, in such a trend the RSI could remain high for extended periods and should not be shorted. Friday(15Aug) I went long the Dow indirectly by going long the Fiber (eurusd is called fiber, gbpusd is called cable), even though the Dow is overbought(RSI high value), it doesn't mean we will have some sort of catastrophic sell-off. The fundamentals of an economic recovery don't suggest this. 30% of the time the market is range bound, going short/long based on RSI combined with other factors is a good way to trade in a counter trend. 10% you have a break-out where you should trade in the direction of the break-out.

Went long the eurusd over the weekend and managed to get the trade at the very bottom out by 2.5pips. The markets moved to quickly for me to post a real-time buy trade ... sorry... Look at the chart and note where the green broken line is drawn, the way metatrader indicates an entry. The euro followed the Dow, time the fiber trades in the direction of the Dow. This relation doesn't always hold though.

Executed seven scalping trades in one hour today on fiber(EURUSD) and USDYEN. On my trading stats you can see that I managed 15 winning trades and one loosing trade of only $0.1. The market moved so quickly that it was not possible to provide a real-time signal.

Executed four Euro trades today without loss(2 long, 2 short). Here is my Metatrader statement for month of August 85% win ratio , 40 winning trades , 7 loss. Average winning trades is 7, average loss trades 1. Account has nearly doubled in three weeks from $117 to $224. Note the smooth steady rise of the graph indicating that there was very little draw-down on the account. Draw-down is more important than making 100% profit in a month because it tells us what was the risk exposure.
