DAY 27

Sadly I come not into good trades with the Renko candles. I like the clean chart picture. And if I scroll back the last hours I see wonderful bricks of the same color. But if I try to come into such nice trades the color of the bricks changes very fast and the trade is over or in a big drawdown. Maybe this method is nothing for me. I miss the price action, which canīt be seen with those bricks. Of course, I'll give that method another week to test it further. But if I donīt come into better trades I will stop using this method.

Agimat Ultra banked again profit today. The account grows, slowly but it grows. The Guiding Light EA made some trades with USDJPY today and is at the moment in an NZDJPY sell trade with a little drawdown. The overall profit of that EA is now more than 70 Euro.

Some signals from DailyFX VIP reached today target 1. The open AUDUSD sell trade is still concerning and could destroy the good result.

The silver trade from FX Street which I copied with a smaller lot size reached its target. The signals from FX Street are very legit.

DAY 27

The best performer of the day was Agimat Ultra with +9.42 Euro. Close behind DailyFX with +8.01 Euro. Both systems had a good day.

Agimat Ultra did not need any grids today. All entries were correct.

The signals from DailyFX were good. Sorry if I repeat myself. But still, the bad AUDUSD sell trade, unfortunately, negates the good results. It will all depend on how that trade turns out. On the stop loss, I would lose more than 50 Euro.

Again a horrible day with the Renko candles. This method is now the top candidate to leave the test lab. I will change a bit the risk and entries the next days. But if I canīt get good results within the next 3-5 days this method will not stay in the test lab. It produces too many false entries so far.

The Guiding Light EA is at the moment in a EURUSD buy trade. In some minutes we have FOMC and I hope it will not end in a bigger drawdown. Today I banked again profit with that EA.

With the help of the analysis and the signals from FX Street I made again profit today. One more good trade and the overall result from FX Street is over 60 Euro. Nothing to complain It is the second-best system in the test lab.

Looks like you’ve put some good work into creating this system. The results and your EA seem to work well and even the results are good. I will surely check out your youtube list and explore it in detail. It is good that expert traders decide to share their experiences and trades with everyone out there and this is also the best platform for doing that. You can anytime revisit your trades and it creates some sort of a summary for you. Keep posting the good work.

I think OP lost the incentive to update because there isn't much views. Which is a huge waste.

How do you measure views per thread?

If others were trading the same systems, then they could participate but with this kind of thread, the objective is to find the best system(s) and that's the goal. No?
I don't know if that goal has been achieved or not but how can one participate in any discussions if the goal is not attained yet? I mean one can chime in and say hmm, nice idea...or keep it going...or too bad that system dropped out etc. but was that the goal of the thread?

Nope, those comments would largely be, for a lack of a better word, cheerleading.

However, a degree of comfortable and happiness is at least essential to producing good work. If we were to chip in here and there, OP is likely to be much more motivated to continue. It will at least let OP know that he is not telling a story whereby no one is keen to listen.

If this thread has no replies and withers down, even if there are others trading the same systems, they might miss out this thread and thus, unable to add value to the discussion. I am certain these systems are not ground-breaking new and I'm certain there are people who have already used or are still using them.

I trade myself but it is always fun to indulge in other projects. After all, a large amount of time when we trade is actually spent on waiting.

On my trade explorers, you can see all systems which are in my tests and for how long. 90% of them are on a real account.
