Hi McRotter,

I believe the correct perspective is, if anyone is trading like this, they are participating. It is not about catching the moves any more.
When you see a move like this, position (millipede) traders are already in and profiting.
It has been my experience that it is easy to lose, even in this type of market, if you don't have the proper mindset.
In this type of market, millipede traders watch their P&L climb.
USDJPY resumed the climb at the touch of january's highs. This sort of area is a sign for me to start buys and diversify some of the sells.

I personally don't just take counter trend signals for the sake of it, need a good reason like this.
It is working very well for me also.

aristides.

Yes participating is what I really should say lol...

I'm interested to see if anyone else is applying this philosophy, I'm glad that some are both in live and demo form, this thread always gets a lot of views whenever it is bumped, but not many seem to be using it.

this is my train of thoughts. 1. Open eur/usd daily chart at start of new candle (for myself its the asian session) and ask myself 1 question. Is it going up or down? And this simple question is governed by the ema crossover. We all know ema crossover has flaws but 'most' times the candles do move forward as per the direction of the crossover. Let us consider the last few days on eur/usd daily chart {image} now with the daily candle deleted appropriately {image}...

I have had a couple of positions taken out by just a few pips at break even only to then go on and run of 100s pips into profit. If I had left the stop loss as is they where upon initial entry several positions would have ran into big profits. I know you are not supposed to get attached to positions but it can be hard not to lol.

i need to go back and get some stats on this, but my sample size isn't big. Wondering if anyone has anymore solid stats on this.

Hmm I think I read like the first 40 pages and skimmed through the rest Im willing to put this to the test ... Already found a set -up trade I took that I like.
Eur/Cad 4hr time frame charts and I zoomed into the 15 mins charts for entry.

I definitely need to thank the author of this thread for this remarkable Work.... A lot of things are clear to me now. GRAEME wherever you are ,your influence will be a testament. Wish you all the best in your endeavors

Hi eurozo, I got charts up to post #3,808 (as kindly supplied by dietcoke), but none after that. If you have charts for the posts after post #3,808 onwards, that would be most helpful. Thanks

I have a file that contains posts 3750ish to 4034, but it's 11.3 MB's and apparently there is a 10 MB limitation on uploading an attachment. Let me figure my way around this error message.

Hi eurozo, thanks for your assistance. If the file is not already compressed, you could try compressing into a zip file and see whether it will bring it to just under the 10mb mark, or you could upload it to one of the free cloud services (like dropbox, 4shared etc) and provide the link to download it, or I could just PM you my email and you could send it by email (I use Yahoo, and I think you can send attachments up to 25mb if I am not wrong). Many thanks

Hi danjuma, Not a problem. I use Yahoo as well. PM me with your email and I will send it to you. They have been of great help to me and I truly thank Graeme for everything he shared and taught!! I wish I could have posted it so everyone could benefit from it but maybe after you get it, you will be able too for everyone else.
