Dislikedjust like bubayaga said, the issue with this way of trading have always been that price can whipsaw around the line a lot more than you may think, resulting in many many small losses before price takes off...if it does indeed take off.Cause sometimes even when price decides to run away from the line, it doesnt do so enough to recoup the small losses endured. using the chart example in the post above, price crosses the line 5 times before moving 30 pips up..then returning to the same line Again. The problem is, it looks like price crosses the line...Ignored

Market is more simple as you think.
