{quote} I left this thread a long time ago. Building long legs had it's charm until I got better at stacking aggressively making 1000+ pips in less than a week trading events. Hope others have found success from this thread. It's the only thread I would recommend reading more than once. I read every post more than a dozen times lol EDIT: I am no longer trading Spot FX since last September by moving to Futures. I saw this street in Pittsburgh over the weekend and thought of visiting this thread :- {image}
But is there a book or not
I might be wrong , I have been wrong before

How the hell would I know? He just disappeared after his last post! What else do you want to know that is not clearly and repeatedly conveyed in all his posts? It appears free information is not good to most until we pay someone to hear the same shit. "Cut losers short and let winners run to grow Equity" is as old as Stone age! Graeme showed us how as well. I doubt you will ever read anything more elsewhere.
Staying in my lane...

The way the world works and the way we are reminded of things will always be interesting to me. I'm glad to hear you found your edge in the market and found this thread useful as I am currently trying to find my way. I won't ask you for your "stacking aggressively" strategy, as it seems no matter what you tell someone when it comes to trading they aren't going to learn until they put the work in themselves. Just curious, are you a FT trader? That is a dream that I hopefully one day make a reality.

Happy trading,
Beef

Im back with millipedes after over a year of break from it. In the meantime I tested several different strategies, but with this I had the best success.

Down you can see my current open trades for this week. Net profit is around 117 pips, but Im sure following next several weeks it will grow. For trades Im using daily candles.

@chrobakz, are you using the flying buddha for entries on the lower time frames, or are you using your own entry technique?

Hi, I'm using my own technique on the daily time frame. I'm looking for outside bar. For long it must close above the previous candle high and vice versa for short.

Hello Everyone,

if it starts to breakout at h4 volatility, I close m5 candle then I open a position and I wait for it to go further then I open a position for each m5, after opening 6 positions I wait for it grow 100 pips more then I close 50% of the positions I wait for remaining positions to grow. While waiting for them to grow I keep open positions considering 00 and MA 200 at h4 (for reverse volatility breakout at h4 I do the same ) The problem is you have to wait on the computer because you don't know the breakout point.

Cool stuff, I'll open a discord server today and send you guys d link on PM.
Chrobakx I basically use Fundamentals and Macro to look for reasons why something is trending or about to trend, after that I basically just use Graeme's methodology in building my equity millipedes to hold them till the underlying macro or fundamental outlook supports the trade idea. I use Monthly/weekly/daily charts for the trends. As for entries i am currently using a breakout system on 4h/1h/m15 charts, I've also used volume profile once a while on entries. I am still working on my entry system so maybe once we are all in the discord server we can bounce around ideas for entry systems

Morning all.

Here is the update after two weeks of my millipedes. Honestly I did not expected to be performing so well. Looks like I catch all major trends, the pound dive, Australian dollar, Japanese yen.
My target is 5000 pips. If I can get them, Ill close all trades and will rise my lot size.
This picture is from this morning, floating net profit is 2368 pips.
