The easy way to trade - with the SMA25 on 100 tick - just going with the flow. {image}
Wish it was always thus :-)

Not the full story, I admit but can be completed into a solid system.

Also, you need a proper tick flow. Your broker, judging by your chart, doesn't provide that. make a detailed comparison with the chart I posted, and you'll see the difference..

I am new to tick charts. Could you help with the comparison please ( just a couple of points maybe) ?

Sorry - cancel that request M - I see where your chart breaks and mine doesn't. Maybe ovo.cz have better tick chart data which can be used on MT4 ?

GM - I did notice that you'd gone back to tick charts. Have you given up on the work you did with Parisboy last december?

GM,

Yes, first I discovered that the multiple regression channel stuff worked better on tick charts than on time-based charts, and then experience taught me that I missed many opportunities by following the regression channels.

Whereas the extensive backtesting done a couple of years ago, which underlies my MA-based tick chart strategy, works wonders in all weathers. That strategy is, btw, analogous to the RB5 strategy I developed with Auron112 back in 2010. Simple to the point of being boring, and catches every move worth catching.

As could be expected, a tighter range than yesterday.

So far the down channel has shown where to trade. Note how the last low failed to get to the bottom of the channel in a VHV green hammer which was followed by a HL.....the start of a rally ? ....TWT

125 as a possible base?
Yes of course... stop in place and ready to react! Always flexible.

Not simple to decide, to be honest... I'll let the Market do her job.
To me always the better choice.
Follow. Just follow.

Trade well. 140 key level to me.

Not perfect ticks as per Medici's earlier comment - but the 100 tick chart, plus the sma, on the Dax has aroused my interest. Thanks for the heads up M.
