I love trading. It really fits my personality type. Mode of passion. 
Here's what's on the drawing board. Been chipping away at this strategy and I think this is a significant breakthrough.
So I wanted to share what I'm finding and value in put and feedback from other traders.
We all want to make money trading, right?
Using a semi automatic ea that is very flexible for opening and closing multiple trades with limit orders and take profits. (Not using the take profit function though) just the limit orders. It was coded by what I would have say must have been a "mad Russian." He's crazy because he is giving the coded ea away free. What a genius. Thank you. Thank Thank you. Cпасибо. Cпасибо. Cпасибо.

I think the only real problem with any trading strategy is that there are two different market conditions. Trending and consolidation. One strategy will not work in both market conditions. There is nothing worse than getting caught in the start of a trend going in the wrong direction. By the time it becomes obvious what has happened there is usually a big enough loss to gobble up almost all if not all of what has already been made.
Identifying the end of a trend is not as difficult. Usually there has been a very dramatic trend for a while and then the traders are making up their minds. Profit taking takes hold and the trading bounces around within a range for a while. That is what I am focusing on. The consolidation market.
It is easier for me to identify a consolidation than the start of a trend. I do not want to outwear my welcome by trying to trade a consolidation for very long since it is sure to move significantly one way or another after a while. I monitor several pairs to find the market conditions I am looking for and using the semi automatic ea and a few other identifiers away we go.
Okay how do I identify a consolidation?
It's after a big move. Mark it on the day chart. Using a moving average cross (sma3 shift 1/lwma3). Then drop down to a lower time frame. I am using 1 hour and trade opposite. Moving averages are always slow in a consolidation. By the time they show a cross the prices have already headed in the opposite direction. This can go on for a while. That's my trading opportunity for this strategy. It is exactly opposite in a trend. In a trend you want to go with the cross. In a consolidation you want to have a way to go opposite to the cross.
It is easier for me to identify the end of a trend and trade in and out (at least short term consolidation) than the start of a trend and stay in it.
You need money to work with. Small position sizes, possibly lots of them and enough margin to let it play itself out. It's worth it.
For now I am setting the ea to the settings shown in the chart. My broker has extra decimals, so my setting for 200 is actually for 20 pips.
This is a semi automatic ea. It is not designed to set it up and go away for a year. It doesn't work like that!!!
Actually I don't know of any ea that will work like!!!! If you find one please please tell me about it!!!
****Something else to watch out for. In the mt4 tester the control point setting is useless. It is not real data. They have compressed the tick data and averaged in somehow so that it is not all what has actually happened in the trading day. Price action is pretty much completely lost. What came higher shows lower first, etc. Even the "every tick" setting has been compromised with some kind of averaging but it may be a little better, not much though than the control points. Maybe the lower time frames are a little more accurate since the opening and closing would be in tact. But everything else in the middle is coo coo house.
There is actual historic tick data available. It's a real headache to load it. But it will give 99% accuracy as to what really happened in the market. It was a few years ago I accessed it from Dukascopy. I'm just using the mt4 every tick setting on the 1 hour for now.
So here's the ea and the template I'm using.
The charts are 1 hour with the ea set up for trading using the markers on the day chart and going opposite.
I'm not using the take profit settings and just waiting for a marker on the day chart for a cross in the opposite direction. Only need to check the charts at the close of the day. Make sure to have lots of margin and use small position sizes for this.
It can be huge. If indeed it is a consolidation. I use the 400sma also. When a trend is winding down the prices will approach the the 400sma kind of flat lining. They bounce around the 400sma for a while.
The 1 hour is a very plane chart. The ea is set up there to trade. But no need to monitor anything there. Just set it up and let it do it's thing.
This morning was a knock out on 4 pairs in the demo. $1400 in a few hours. With a bunch of .01's. Can see where it is important to get it right.

1/9/17 Great news for US traders!!!!
Tradersway will take US clients and no FIFO, hedging is okay and up to 1:1000 leverage.
All the bells and whistles...
If that isn't enough rope to hang yourself... I don't what is.
I'm opening an account as soon as I can get my funds out of Oanda..

Okay. I'm going to take this one on.
I understand what he is doing basically.
Just have to get down the details of how to do it in his ea.
If you're a newby this will be a bit much for you.
I won't be a able to try to explain things.
You just need more experience.
So thankful for finding a broker that allows hedging.
I suggest checking out the tutorials first. This may not be something you want to try right now.

Instead of multiple positions in a grid on a single pair.
How about using a moving average that favors a direction and placing trades on 4 pairs?
This is the just super simple expert that mt4 gives in their example list... I can get "fancy" later.
Wait for a net gain and close everything.
