Oops forgot to mention the PAC value coding, but I think you know this already and we don't need any custom indicator for PAC.

// Get PAC High Low values
PAC_Hi_0 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_HIGH, i);
PAC_Lo_0 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_LOW, i);
PAC_Hi_1 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_HIGH, i+1);
PAC_Lo_1 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_LOW, i+1);
PAC_Hi_2 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_HIGH, i+2);
PAC_Lo_2 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_SMMA, PRICE_LOW, i+2);

{quote} Well, every time someone new comes to this thread, the same Frequently Asked Questions get asked over and over again. Also the older members do not read this thread on regular basis and will ask the same questions when posts were made in the past months and questions asked and answered over and over again. So this post will be repeated over and over again. Most important thing is to read all of the OP's posts in FF and learn how he started trading forex in 2008 as a newbie until 2011. You need to know the man Eric aka Big E, his lifestyle,...

{quote} when you trade manually, you simply place your stop loss for every trade the normal way. but when you have 2 and more open positions, you use the average entry price of all open positions and place your stop loss using the average entry price. https://www.forexfactory.com/showthr...4#post10098534 use the forum keyword search " average entry price" and read up on this topic.

No worries.
When you asked, it help many others who chose to remain silent and in read only mode.
Some look at 80K posts and gave up without reading.
I don't have a problem to repeat myself over and over again if it help anyone who wants to learn to trade and trade with TMS.
I show you all that it can be profitable when you put in the long hours and work hard diligently to achieve financial freedom.

There is euro minimum rate announcement in about one hour. Right now EU starts to move a little more.
Looks to me it is bullish later but the volatility will get all the small stop loss.

EU still looking Bullish on the 15 Min Chart but to early to push the button just yet. There is around 200 pip space above this level to a Monthly Resistance level so a short Buy trade may work out. Looking to take this trade soon as per my Top Down Analyse Plan.

{quote} Trade Report for closed trades Sep 04 to 07. So far this week went week according to trade plan and those pair picked ran well except for AUDJPY and AUDNZD which are slow moving. Nevertheless, good profits for this week and this weekend will review which pairs to trade next week. {image}
Hi Emm,

is this possible to do with a US based account (only oanda or forex .com) because I have no other option (US citizen) Rules here are FIFO first trade in first trade out. Does this affect the lotto management in case the the movement goes wrong? I can see in your graphic you choose which trade you want to close but in my case I do not have that option. Thanks in advance.

Hear, hear man. Thanks again for the help.
Now I just move on to MT5 recently and wonder if you have any suggestions on where i can find the same style of indicator like late Great E had on MT4. I did able to fetch a tdi indicator that worked out just fine on mt5 , but was not being lucky on track the synergy candle.

Hi,

No exit strategy issues with FIFO. I have also a US based account for development testing and that work with no issues. few traders in my group live in the US and they can only trade with US based brokers with those restrictions and no problems, they simplu comply with FIFO trade closing.

In the longer term, I think traders in other countries will have to live with all those US imposed restriction like 1:50 leverage, FiFO, no hedging, etc. Leverage will lower further to 1:25 as some brokers already have.

Trade Well.

the direction was clear on the higher timeframe but the volatility in lower timeframe will take out many small stops.

we must learn to stay away from those news/event driven volatility and use smart stop loss.

looking at the price action, usually using two bars/candle look-back work most of the time. Either use 2 weeks back or 2 days back for SL will work out most of the time in major news /events like NFP, GDP, etc.

{quote} Hello Where can i read more about this PAC trend? I searched your profile with "PAC trend" but can't get much information. Kind regards

that post explains how to check the PAC for "trend" direction.

you need to know the other 2 conditions

1) the HA candle close above or below the PAC

2) the PAC "trend"

3) the TDI Moderate mode
- Green above Red, above Yellow and 50-level for BUY
- Green below Red, below Yellow and 50-level for SELL

Above these 3 mechanical conditions, the most important is Price Action and Support/Resistance.
DO NOT trade when price in in or near a consolidation zone.
DO NOT trade against the higher timeframe "trend".

How are you defining a re-entry on your initial trade condition? How are you defining your different exits? Or is it more ME/OE?
