Terrific job compiling stats, 2 questions. Were the trades Cabel? Did the Alligator get used as a filter?

Thanks.
I use original tlatomi method, see post #1..

The pair is cable, 4H... I do not use any other indicators besides the three original ones (I didnt notice any significant improvement using other indicators proposed in this thread and also, I am pleased with 10 pips profit).

Why change something that works!?

Now, if you want safer trades, get in with proper signal (the dot, crossing, yellow line...simple). 10 pips is guaranteed for now....

If you want more profit ( not by catching more pips, simply because there are more trades available by yellow line) , get in only by yellow line signal...

I am testing some nexit strategies, so when I will have something good, I will post it...it takes some time.


Cheers...

Thanks, In my case I'm going for more pips, THe alligator seems to be a good filter to avoid whip saws when going for more pips, perhaps when the alligator isn't giving a buy signal, I can ebter for 10 pips!

In the folder where you installed Metatrader, you will copy the indicators into the folder

Just put it into the folder, restart the program and you can find it in the folder 'custom' when you want to add an indicator.

Hi,

Since there is still some people interested in my method on FF, i'm going to post a update i'm working on.

2 weeks ago, I began the second phase of testing : forward testing so i'm not sure yet if this update is profitable or not.

UPDATE :
1 - Replace the jaws of the alligator by 5/13/62 EMAs.
2 - Identify the trend (cross of the EMAs)
3 - The distance between the 62EMA and the price of entry must be at least 20 pips.

EXAMPLE :

http://picnac.com/images/6915FFGBPUSD1.gif

1 - EMAs cross === Trend is up now.


http://picnac.com/images/8150FFGBPUSD.gif

We are working on the last signal fot this example.

1- Trend is up so we only place Long positions
2- Blue Dot appears
3- CCI cross
4- Blue Arrow appears
5- Price of entry is 1.2721 and 62EMA is at 1.2698 (1.2721-1.2698=23 pips)


Using the 5/16/62 EMAs instead of the alligator, we miss less opportunities and we have a lot more points of entry or re-entry.


What's your opinon on this ?

Good trades !

So far, which do you find works better, the move "through" the 62 EMA, or the "bounce" away from it? System looks interesting to me.

Have you found this as efficent as suing the alligator for avoiding whipsaws?

Are you using the 5/13 in leiu of the 5/9 ma? Is the theory it will allow for an earlier entry?

Are you still using the Vegas Fob lines to define price targets?

What are you looking at for exit signals?

thats right-- there is a 5/13/62 ema strategy Rob Booker talks about

i personally use 62 ema in numerous time frames

the idea that the entry has to be more then 20 pips away from 62ema--i dont support-- ithas no validation, but yes u will see conoldiation + support/resistence in diff time frames around 62 ema.

i agree that these 3 emas can be used instead of alligator as we generally confriming 2 things--cross of ema's and trend.

I would use higher time frames to determine trend. If you use 5/13 cross on 4H to determine trend then you have negated the 9/5. 9/5 works well. Don't get away from this.

I also like Vegas Daily to determine when to trade. Look at his method on daily. You go short at higher Fib averages above tunnels and long at lower below tunnels.
