100-200MA 1 Hour Time Frame

Hello fellow traders, I have a system which use the 100 and 200 moving averages, and the 10 and the 5 moving averages all simple. We will also employ the adx to determine strength. I did not want to start this thread but I am curious as to what my fellow traders think. This is a simple cross over system and i have found some success with it but on the daily time frame. (not enough trades)

For a buy (2 types of entry's)
We need a cross of the 5 above the 10 we also need the 100 to be above the 200.
2nd type of entry we need 5 above the 10 and we also need the 100 to be pointing upwards.

ADX has to be strong and above 25

For a sell we need the opposite
There are times when I will break these rules, but there will be an explanation, I have been trading for about 6 years mostly stocks now. The forex market has been very unpredictable and very hard for me to trade. Ive tried most popular systems on the factory and they didn't work for me.
This appears to be consistent in making pips.
Please tell me what you think, i don't mind critics, we are all here to make money.

I almost forgot, your stoploss should be above or below recent high. Charts to follow. I HATE TYPING

Thanks

Perfect buy entry on the vertical line.

I dont like posting charts after the fact but just to give you an idea of what I am talking about.

Its great to catch when MA's cross at the same time, but alot of times it does not happen.

Rule breaker trade (100 and 200) are very close and we have a strong adx

Selling opportunity.
Notice the slope of the 100 MA
Strong ADX

I forgot to mention this system is on Baby P but I found it to be too vague, I added the 100 and 200 MA's with the ADX to suite my style.

WHERE ARE THE CRITICS, Lets Go

I will try to post as many live trades as possible and I hope you guys do the same. I like to see buy and sell lines on charts

You have found a holy grail, 100 + 200 SMA is thebest MA cross there is. Even better on daily but very long term.

I don't know about that, but we will see. The daily just didn't produce enough trades for me. Its very long term.

For the hour chart I will start looking for trades at 3:am NY time up untill about 11:am. If I see something juicy during the Asian session I may jump on it, but not likely.

I will take trades close to news time, it doesn't scare me, but I will have aggressive stops in place, you can always get back in.

I forgot to mention, big long candles at the cross, i do not trade because there is going to be a pull back , usually.
But then again I will break that rule if the 100 and 200 are crossing at the same time as the 5 and 10 are. That is the only time.

Edit: If its a strong move and the adx remains above 25, I may use a pending order above or below long candles.

Whats not known is the ADX? You attempting to put something very lagging with something very leading? What peroid you using for ADX?

14, I really like the adx. You think its to slow for 1 hour ?

so it works best on 1 hr or higher?
which pair or pairs?
thanks

ADX14 is ok on every timeframe. But it is hard to find anything more lagging than MA crosses. MA 100x200 especially.

I was watching this last night , but missed it.

In on NZD/CAD

Nice double bottom, I dont like the 100 MA, its not pointing up but above the 200.

WE are not trading the 100/200 cross , we are only using it for bias. WE are trading the 5/10 cross.

AUD/CAD Missed it

EUR/SEK Missed it
