Great Thanks i will have a look at Metatrader 4.
I like this stratergy, managed to do 95 pips this morning on the GBP/USD but i agree with your risk ratio....only time will tell i suppose.
Thanks.

By SA i assume you mean South Africa. Try downloading a demo version of Metatrader 4 from Alpari or Interbankfx, both give you real time data as part of the demo. In this software if you use the 1D timeframe you should be getting the high and low for each day.
You can lose a maximum of 180 points per pair per day. I think Mikelath is trading 3 pairs so his max loss is 540 points.
I've seen Mikelath's testing results and they look impressive but I am concerned that the risk ratio is not high enough and over time when the cluster of losses come the strategy will struggle. BUT that is something that only backtesting and forward testing can prove.
