Hi Cm7, I have been trying to follow your GJ, GC,GA and GN calls but find I just can't. I am in Pacific time and it is just not working.
I get up at 6 am check charts, make adjustments quickly then out the door to work. I can more or less check the charts throughout the NY session while at work. I come home about the start of Tokyo, check charts, follow this forum, take calls, make dinner, do household stuff, etc. go to bed at midnight. That's an 18 hr day. In order to check for GBP calls you make during London session, or to make adjustments in calls made during Asian session I have to get up after 3 hrs, check charts, make adjustments, etc,. then go back to bed for 2 1/2 hrs. And it could be that there are no calls or adjustments yet, but there could be after I go back to bed. Aaaah! And do it all over again the next day. As much as I desire to follow these trades and conduct them properly, I find I can't find a way to make these work. I go to work and feel like a zombie. I will still work hard on the Gorilla trades as best I can.

He was on Pacific time and he used to trade 4Hrs candels during London session.

Hi Ozy: I am also in the Pacific time zone and it is no fun. I have worked out a couple of solutions that may help you. It is not true Gorilla but I started using 15 minute charts instead of 1 hour. I should have time over the weekend to post a couple of charts and hope no one complains about the time frame used. I also know that you know that there is a dead zone from 2pm till 4 or 5pm. I will look at the charts and see if anything looks promising but will often take a nap. Get up in time for the Tokyo open. The nap helps cause if I go to bed around 9 or 10 I will set the alarm for 11:30 and wait for London open and stay up for an hour or so. Then back to bed. I do not even look at the New York session since that is when I have to work. Yes it is tiring and the weekend often involves long naps. But, you have to do what you have to do if you want to play in Forex Land. Adapt or die. Anyways, I will find the time this weekend and post a chart of what I am looking at. Maybe it will help, maybe not. Dave.

Hello Ozymandias, I looked into the 15 min. "Chimp" method. It seemed to have decent results. When I first back tested it I used 15 m chart with ema120, ema60, and ema16. I multiplied by 4 due the 15 minutes being 1/4 of an hour. Just now I divided the emas by 4 resulting in ema7 ema3 and ema1. I am going to backtest and check the results. From the little study I just did it looks good. Maybe a good scalping strategy. I am sure there are a million things wrong with this but worth a look

Sorry for my bad English..

Actually the original 3 EMAs trading system on H1, base on fast EMA 4 (look up for 1 H4 candle averaging value) , then slow EMA 24 (look up for 6 H4 candles or 1 D1 candle averaging value), and the mid EMA 14 (median between EMA 4 and EMA 24 = 24 - 4 = 20/2 =10 +4 = 14)

so this Gorilla trading system is similar to this H1 3 EMAs trading system, Gorilla (EMA 4, 15, 30), while 3EMAs (EMA 4, 14, 24) with similar trend following pullback entry, and with classic pivot S/R range as target.

When you try to 'down frame' from H1 to M15, then you should also reduce your target range and that mean also shorter SL, and that mean higher risk. That maybe why Chris, not use lower TF than H1, to avoid noise/stop hunting. IMHO

To look price movement there are trending up/down and SIDEWAY, my question is how we know the trending starting became the dragon. Because trending is the most gain pips. Sideway make me sick .. catch the stop loss ...

I have tried this too, there are advantages and disadvantages,
Advantages are, you can wait for a buy entry on the up instead of a blind entry on Ema30 but I believe that this is the secret of the Gorilla method, because its very low risk entering on ema30 especially when Pivot is below it as in our case, those are two very strong supports.
Risk and reward as in SL and TP have to remain the same otherwise the whole game changes.
I believe what we have here in the Gorilla method is perfect without any alterations.
Just my 2cents.
Have a good weekend guys....... waiting for the blog
