{quote} Don't use stats on cable just go on the numbers and breaks and pivots etc. Do compile and use stats on the advisor thingy though and is getting interesting. Hasn't had a losing week in 3 months. Sure the wins aren't big but ...
Your advisor thingy is good.

It does ok but I do put a lot of time into it. Most expect these things to jump out the box make money and the tea (think that was Lem's words or close to) it doesn't work that way.

Hello everybody, Last month I posted that I would try and incorporate the 50 MA into the Box breakout strategy. I am testing over 10 pairs (started with 20), I do not yet see a big difference in win/losses but it looks like some pairs show a bigger Win ratio when the MA is used. One month is to short to say anything over long term so I will get back with results and details around the beginning of June. Keep up the profits everyone!
Hi TIMR89
Are you aware of this work by Grant?, he used a EMA filter to his London breakout trades. I have not evaluated it but it might be food for thought if you are trying to find a better way.

I think we've all been down the ma route. Much will depend on the tf you are using.

I will use specific ones as ''bounce-lines'' when scalping but never found any advantage when used with breakout boxes, in fact with The Frankenbreak it was worse than useless, keeping me out of many winning trades. It went in the bin.

By all means, if you find something that works for you, rock on, Tommy, however I'd be wary of the fact that you're trying to re-invent the wheel here.

Tim was looking at ea which Retina built a 50 ma in as an option. That's where this is coming from I think.

Never used it never will.

Back to the old thing on the forum - got people on this thread posting live trades with simple systems that have proved profitable over years. Let's stick an ma on make it better. I give up.

Watch cable go back to pivot at 25 or so then London close will send it flying back to 00. May be wrong.

I was just watching Cable, it just broke 00-00 High and still 20 + points. But not for me. I still prefer down.

Stuck around yesterday's close - thought it might have gone higher. See what next half hour brings but I'll only be selling.
